Chapter Text

Hajime has been under for a few years now, somehow miraculously the doctors there were somehow able to keep him alive by fluids alone after they all had due during the despair era, and Hajime was beginning to awaken, so he awoke in a hospital, he sat up looking concerned and confused, his room looked abandoned and he didn’t hear anything.

He wondered about Nanami and how she was doing, he got out of bed and he felt dizzy so he held onto the table there until he felt better, he saw that he was in a hospital gown and his clothes- or well his Reserve’s Course uniform was folded up neatly on the table.

He took off the gown and placed on his uniform, he buttoned up his shirt and placed on his boxers and then pants, he placed his tie on then his black blazer. He couldn’t find his socks or shoes so he went out barefoot, he saw that everything had looked abandoned and the lights were dimmed. He eventually found a bear of socks and shoes that fit him so he decided to wear them, he was trying to find the exit.

But finally he actually heard something, it sounded like two people, they both were females, he had thought that maybe they could help him so he went near them. He saw a teenager with a microphone and an young adult with long purple hair, but her skirt was torn a lot, exposing her legs that had tally marks on them. He was wondering if he should introduce himself, but the teenager saw him, “H- huh? Who are you?” She asked pointing the microphone at him, the other one pointed two long scissors at him.

He was confused, why were they pointing those at him, “W- what..! Why are you acting like I’m going to attack you?!” He asked them, “W- wait.. Naegi- Chan, I don’t think he’s on their side..” The purple hair girl said, “Who’s side? What’s going on? And why is the sky red?” He asked them as he just noticed the red sky, they both went silent, “A- are you being serious..? You don’t know what happened?” ‘Naegi- Chan’ asked, “Yes? I don’t know what’s happening, I just woke up in the hospital alone and you are the first people that I heard.” He said, they both quietly discussed something with each other.

They both looked at him, “E- everything is being d- destroyed for the past few y- years.. o- o- our homes, our f- families, and our s- society. It was all caused b- by some b- big titty b- bitch E- Enoshima Junko.. she b- brainwashed a group of f- f- fifteen students o- of being her servants o- of despair. They c- caused many c- casualties a- and those f- freaks took body parts of E- Enoshima when she d- died.. they are k- know as ‘Remnants of Despair’. We are t- tasked to capture them a- and bring them to N- Naegi-Kun.” The purple hair girl explained, he was in shock, all of this had been happening while he was asleep? Is Nanami okay?

The purple haired woman continued her explanation, “The f- fifteen students were apart o- of class 77-B. They faked their d- d- deaths, my class and I- I locked ourselves in Hope’s Peak A- academy in hopes of p- protecting ourselves.. but E- Enoshima was apart o- of our class and after an year in that school, s- she wiped all of o- our memories and m- made us go into a killing g- game that she made live..” The purple haired woman finished her explanation, Hajime was in shock, this much happened while he was unconscious.

This was honestly unreal but given how the sky looks, he has to believe them, “S- so who are you i- if you are able to r- remember.” The purple haired woman said, “I am Hinata Hajime, who are you two exactly?” He asked, “I am Naegi Komaru, and this is Fukawa Toko.” Naegi- Chan said, “Do you guys know who is Nanami Chiaki by chance? I used to know her before this happened and I want to make sure she’s okay.” Hajime asked, they both fell silent.

He felt slightly uncomfortable as if he said something bad, “Don’t you know?” Naegi- Chan asked, “Know what? I’ve been in a coma for the past few years.. I thought that you guys would know that..” Hajime said, “Nanami is one of the remnants… she and her classmates are the ones causing the tragedies.” Naegi- Chan said, “What..? You gotta be kidding me right..?” Hajime replied, he couldn’t believe it, the same Nanami- Chan that played video games with him? He couldn’t possibly believe that the sleepy gamer he knew was apart of the remnants..

Naegi- Chan looked at him pitifully, “Look, I know you find it hard to believe but it is true..” She said, Hajime didn’t know what to think now.. was there anyone who he could trust now? Probably not.. but those two seem the most reliable right now.. “Also I think you should know something before we all start working together.. the people who are in despair have red eyes.. or black swirls.” Naegi- Chan said, “Oh.. alright..” He replied, then suddenly one of the Monokumas came but this time there was a white and pink bunny..

Hajime was confused, what were those things? And why were they coming after him, Fukawa- San tased herself and her tongue went out and her eyes went red, it surprised Hajime but he kept cool, as Naegi- Chan didn’t react horribly to that.. so he thought that it was normal for Fukawa- Chan to do..

Naegi- Chan shot out lasers from the microphone while Fukawa- San tore apart the bunny and bear bots with her scissors, Hajime stood there as he didn’t know what could destroy those things, then they were all gone, Fukawa- San turned to him, “Kyaaa! Who’s this cutie?! Komaru, when were you going to tell me that we had an hottie with us?!” Fukawa- San asked, this confused Hajime, Fukawa didn’t remember him?

Should he ask Naegi- Chan about it? “Sorry about that Hinata- Senpai.. this is Syo right now.” Naegi- Chan said, “Syo? Like Genocide Syo? The serial killer?!” Hajime asked, “Well yeah..” Naegi- Chan said quietly, Syo immediately went up to Hajime, “Heya hottie, sorry if Komaru bugged ya. I’m just your friendly neighbor killer Genocide Syo.” Syo said, Hajime gave an awkward smile then Fukawa went back, “H- huh?! W- why am I- I- I so close..?” Fukawa- San asked as she backed away, “Syo thought that Hinata- Senpai was cute so she went up to him, now c’mon we gotta find Nanami..” Naegi- Chan said, Fukawa-San went to back to Naegi-Chan.

The three continued to walk around a bit, they were on high guard after they were attacked by the Monokumas and Monomis, but they ran into one of the Monokids, “Huh..?! Why does he have that on his head..?” Hajime asked, “Well.. since we are in T- Towa City right now, five b- brats have completely t- taken over, and killed a- all of the adults, they all w- worship Enoshima and believe her a- as an angel, just like a lot of f- f- freaks worship her as some big t- titty god.. and their leader k- keeps on talking about s- some ‘Big Bro’ guy…” Fukawa- San said angrily, “We have to worry about murderous children now.. goddamit..” Hajime muttered, the Monokid looked at him curiously, he never saw a uniform like that so he needs to inform Monaca.

The kid giggled then he ran off, “Do you guys think he was looking at me strangely..?” Hajime asked the duo, “Well yeah he was a little.. what do you think that is about?” Naegi- Chan asked, “M- maybe because H- Hinata- senpai is w- wearing a suit o- of some kind..” Fukawa- San said, “Well.. this is my school uniform.. I was in the Reserve’s Course for Hope’s Peak Academy..” Hajime replied, “H- huh..? Well I- I guess that’s why I n- never saw you around b- before..” Fukawa- San said, the trio continued to walk but did so carefully as someone could be nearby.

——————————-———————————

Monaca was sitting with the Warriors of Hope, then the Monokid came into the room, “Ah.. you finally made it to Monaca, you said that it was very important that Monaca knows.” Monaca said, the Monokid nodded his head, he showed the recording of Hajime. Monaca was a little impressed because it showed the Reserve’s Course badge, and he was her Big Bro before “Ah gee.. I thought all the Reserve’s Course students were dead.. oh well I guess I forgot how strong Big Bro was.. and he wasn’t even a demon in the first place.” Monaca said, the Monokid nodded then he left.

Daimon- Kun looked a little amazed, he never saw a demon like him before. That means he is extra special one, he even had the Hope’s Peak Reserve’s Course uniform.. Monaca told them about these demons, they are the more peaceful ones.. and that they have no special talents.. but this one survived everything so he must be special.. he might not even be a demon..

Shingetsu- Kun also looked at Hajime’s photo, he was slightly interested in him as he studied a lot about the Reserve’s Course demons, they all had died a few years ago but this one survived.. he wants to study everything about this demon, as this one is a special case of demon, perhaps he could ask one of the remnants to bring the unknown demon over so he could study and observe him.

Kemuri- Kun looked at him, he grew interest in him, the mystery demon would definitely hate him as well, he needs him to hate him.. everyone here hates him so do the Monokids, even the filthy demons hate him, so surely this special demon would hate him just like the others.

Utsugi- San was a little curious of him, she found him to be super adorbs, she wondered if she treat him like all the other super adorable girls she finds, as if he can’t fend for himself then he needs to take whatever they give him.. so she hopes that he is able to fight back as he does look super kind person..

——————————-———————————

Hajime and the girl duo were walking around town, they soon found an subway station, “Do you think we should go down there?” He asked, “P- probably.. we can go there u- undetected from those Monomi and M- Monokuma things..” Fukawa- San said, “Yeah that would be a good idea.. let’s go.” Naegi- Chan said as the three went downwards deep into the dark abyss of a station, thankfully there was no Monokuma bears or any Monomi bunnies.

They all wandered around carefully not to fall into the train tracks then they ran into a few of the Monokids, they were carrying a T.V. towards the three, they were all cautious of the children but once they got close enough the T.V. began to play. There was a young boy with an mask covering his face, it was made of leather.

He looked a little nervous, “Wh- what? Who’s this creepy brat…” Fukawa- San said, “Ah! By any chance, am I already being projected!? Ah, what do I do? I tried so hard to hold it like Kotoko-chan instructed, but it was all a joke from the start…” The strange boy said, “Hey... is this o- one of them? One of those Warriors of H- Hope characters?” Fukawa- San asked, “Y- yeah…” Naegi- Chan replied, “Yes I am! I am Li'l Ultimate Art, head of the Priest Class Kemuri Jatarou. But let me give you some advice. You best not flat-out speak my name... or you’ll be cursed.” Kemuri- Kun said, “S- stop messing with us.. take that mask off! I- I’m getting embarrassed just looking at it..” Fukawa- San replied, “H- how terrifying! If I do that, then Big Bro’s eyeballs will stop working!” Kemuri- Chan said, “Huh?” Fukawa- San replied, what did he even mean about ‘Big Bro’..?

Whatever, this kid is already an nutcase so whatever he says it utter nonsense, “Of course, I don’t want to see it either. When my face makes other people’s eyeballs rot… ah by the way, I wonder if it really is just an urban legend that the corpses of bugs are used in pigments, but don’t you think stuff like wasabi is suspicious? Having that color and taste, It’s definitely fishy.” Kemuri- Kun said, “You.. probably already know this b- but.. you’re extremely unpleasant…!” Fukawa- San said, “Eh? Am I unpleasant? I thought I was just a cheerful child. Perhaps... I was wrong about how cheerful I am? In that case, I’m thankful... sorry. I’m really sorry - I’m sorry from the bottom of my heart. I’m sorry, please forgive me somehow, I’m sorry…” Kemuri- Kun said, what the hell..?

Hajime couldn’t tell what is it with this kid.. “S- stop all that! I already said you’re unpleasant!” Fukawa- San replied, “Look.. just what the hell are you kids doing anyway? Why did you do this?” He said a little angrily, who can blame him? He woke up to discover this and he had to fend for his life, “What? You’re not forgiving me? If you’re not forgiving me then.. does that mean that Big Bro hates me? No... I can’t tell. He might just be acting mean to the one he likes… If the three of you are raging shotacon, then you might be itching to tell me ‘I like you I like you’..” Kemuri- Kun said, “Even i- if we were long-lost siblings from a previous life.. I would still hate you!” Fukawa- San said, “Yeah.. I don’t think we even are siblings from any previous life.” Hajime said, “E- excuse me but.. wasn’t there something you wanted to say before? I’m just not really sure what you’re trying to tell us..” Naegi- Chan said, Hajime didn’t understand it either..

I mean.. what was he even talking about with the shotacon? They are teenagers- or at least he think he’s an teenager still.. “I guess you’re right. Though it’ll probably make you yawn.. basically, once it leaves my mouth, it might leave you unconscious. So, no one can find out its meaning, of course. It’s impossible for me too, really I’m just stalling. Like this, I’m distracting you from the terror of evolution and regression. If you harbor any interest in those things.. then you two have time to contemplate the world.. you are demons, after all.” Kemuri- Kun said, “Enough already.. okay, good-bye.” Fukawa- San replied, “Ah, wait a minute! I was just thinking that I would kindly tell you!” Kemuri suddenly said, “Tell us.. what?” Naegi- Chan said confused, “What is it that you want to tell us..?” Hajime asked, “Eeh, it really is a shame, but someone with the bracelet can’t leave the city.” Kemuri-Kun said, what does he mean about that..

Hajime didn’t know what he meant.. he hopes it wasn’t anything too bad, “C- can’t leave..? Why?” Naegi- Chan asked, “Well, Naegi is the target in our game, right? You see, miracles aren’t allowed in this game. Everything had to be painstakingly accounted for. For that reason.. this game has rules.” Kemuri- Kun said, “Rules.. you don’t mean!? So, that guy who was s- suddenly blown up when he tried to swim out of the city..” Fukawa- San said, “Eh!?” Naegi- Chan said confused, “What do you mean by that..! What happens?!” Hajime asked, he was irritated by the kids, “Th- that wasn’t our fault! I mean.. it’s not like it only explodes when we tell it to. It’s just that if you try to leave the city, the bracelet becomes a bomb…. Huh? I guess it really is our fault!” Kemuri- Kun said, “Wh- what.. are you..” Naegi- Chan stuttered, “You.. you should say that kind of stuff at the beginning! You haphazardly left O- Omaru in a position to be blown up!” Fukawa- San said, “But adults say it all the time, don’t they? There are things in this world that you’ll be happier not knowing. The pig who’ll be turned into bacon is better off not knowing about it…There’s no difference between Naegi and a pig dying, so you’d be happier not knowing, right?” Kemuri- Kun said, “D- don’t be so serious…! If this is a game... then the rule management is too lenient!” Fukawa- San said, “You’re wrong! This isn’t a game! I mean.. people are dying. Asahina-kun... died. To say.. this is a game…” Naegi- Chan said, “There are some games... where you’re forced to put your life on the line.” Fukawa- San said, “Eh? Wh- what do you mean?” Naegi- Chan said, “Yeah, what do you mean by that Fukawa- San?” Hajime asked, “Helloooo! You’re not ignoring me, are you? I hate being ignored! Hey Big Bro, which do you hate more: being ignored, or demons? I hate demons more. They use crafty methods to curse and kill people. It makes me angry, so angry.” Kemuri- Kun said, “S- stop it already! Stop saying things that don’t make sense!” Naegi- Chan said, what was this kid even talking about..?

Demons aren’t real.. so what is this kid spouting about, “Yes, it’s okay if you come to hate me like that. It’d be nice if you hated me more and more. I’m a hated outsider, so I’m comfortable being hated. When you’re hated, you don’t have to go through the effort of being liked.” Kemuri- kun said.. well he is true about that, everyone always hated him and it was impossible of being like by someone….. other than Nanami- Chan, but now she’s one of the people who brought the world to this.. he doesn’t know what to think about her.. “Don’t get comfortable.. I- I’ll hate brats like you until the day I die...!” Fukawa- San said, “Look kid, I don’t know what you’ve been through, but what you are doing is incredibly messed up.. like what is wrong with you..?” Hajime replied to the kid, “Ah, if I take Big Bro’s words and turn them around, then I hear that he likes me! Since I was comfortable, I wanted to make doubly sure. That’s why I contacted you in the first place…” Kemuri- Kun said, “M-make doubly sure…?” Naegi- Chan said, “Maybe...you’ll see this and come to hate me even more! Hahahahaha!” Kemuri- Kun said, what did he even mean by that..

He was in what looked to be an abandoned playroom with colorful puzzle pattern floors then suddenly a carousel appeared with an giant Monokuma in the middle, then suddenly a toy blocked castle appeared, balloons went up and then a bunch of blue figures dancing around, with Monokuma dancing in the background then suddenly Monokuma was holding cross braces then he moved them then suddenly it went dark as the blue figures looked to be disfigured as Monokuma made them continued to dance then it quickly showed signs of someone being tortured then it continued showing Monokuma making the people dance..

All three of them watched in horror, Naegi- Chan collapsed to the ground as Fukawa- San looked pissed, Hajime was in shock, he couldn’t believe what he just witnessed.. he felt bad for those people who were tortured, they didn’t deserve it.. then the group of kids left with the T.V. they all stood there for a bit, they all were too shocked to say anything.. “Not looking... I- I’m not looking... I know it’s... obviously something horrible..” Fukawa- San said, “Hmmm, I hunted these ones in the shopping district... I think these were the ones hiding in a bathroom.” Kemuri- Kun said, “What the hell was that you brat?! Did you seriously kill them!” Hajime said to the kid, he was upset, he didn’t want to participate in this..

Kemuri- Kun seemed a little delighted in making them hate them, “Ah, did I ruin the mood? But you see... I can’t stop no matter what. Making dioramas is my only pastime. So, if I show you something this distasteful, you’ll hate me, won’t you? Ah, or maybe... you three have unexpectedly bad taste, just like me..” Kemuri- Kun said, “S- stop it already!” Naegi- Kun said, “Why do you want me to stop? Because you already hate me plenty? Because you don’t want to hate me? Because it’s a waste of time? Because your own time is important? Because you’ve gotten tired? Because you don’t want to be tired? I don’t get it...Stop saying things with hidden meanings... I’m a kid, so I don’t get it.” Kemuri- Kun said, “How.. how messed up are you?” Fukawa- San asked, “And whose fault is that? Well, not that it matters… after all, the way I am now is way more fun. Demons are the ones I’d like to thank for that. I want to say, ‘Thanks for letting me know what ugly, dirty, low-down filth I am’. I’ll live smeared in filth, as befits filth! In a paradise just for children that no one will get in the way of! Ehe, ehehehehehehehe!!” Kemuri- Kun said then the screen turned back to black and the kids carried the T.V. away.

The three adults stood there, “Tch.. that damn brat..” Fukawa-San said, “What did he mean by ‘paradise for children’?” Hajime asked, he still doesn’t understand what was fully happening, “They want to kill all adults and make it a place where only children could be allowed to live.” Fukawa- San explained, “Geez.. what the hell.. why a bunch of kids are doing this..” Hajime asked himself, they continued to walk around in the station, then they found an exit, so they went through it, “But Hinata, not only that but we also have to deal with Nanami and her classmates.. they are searching for someone they claimed to be ‘Enoshima’s beloved brother’ or whatever..” Fukawa- San explained, “Huh..? Really she has a brother? I thought she was an only child..” Hajime said, he couldn’t believe it..

Maybe this ‘brother’ of hers is the reason why everyone is murdered and the reason why these kids are acting like this, “But you know.. the kids have been calling you ‘Big Bro’ do you know why? Do you remember them from before you went to the hospital?” Naegi- Chan asked, “No I don’t.. but I do remember Monaca.. I took her in after I became her guardian.” Hajime said, those two froze in shock.. “S- so you’re the ‘him’ that they keep on saying!” Naegi- Chan said, “Huh..? What do you mean by him..?” Hajime asked, “When I first escaped.. the kids posted a broadcast, they said that they were creating a paradise for children to honor ‘him’..” Naegi- Chan said, “Huh….?” Hajime replied, he still didn’t know what was going on, he didn’t remember anything about any children.. he only remembered Monaca.

They all had continued to walk, they eventually made it out of the subway station. They were sadly met with one of the Monokumas, it made them all spilt up. Hajime was now upset, he doesn’t know entirely what has happened and now he got separated from his friends. He has to be careful as he doesn’t have an weapon with him..

He didn’t noticed that he was being watched by a certain breeder.. “I have finally found you, beautiful seraph..” Tanaka said quietly, he made sure that his animals made sure that he was protected, as soon he would make his grand appearance.

Chapter Text

Hajime was frightened, he could swear that he felt something off but hell this entire time he felt off about this.. although he could’ve sworn that he saw some sort of animal some time ago.. he couldn’t tell what one it was.. and as he was walking it went up to him.. but it didn’t show any aggressive behaviors. Hajime was sure that this lion was at least friendly, that was good at a time like this.

The lion was slow in his approach, careful not to frighten Hajime, soon his face touched Hajime, and he purred in happiness. Hajime didn’t know how to react, and he didn’t know where this lion had got here in the first place.. ‘Perhaps it might be one of the remnants.. but why is it not attacking me..?’ Hajime thought, the animal continued to purr, “I apologize beautiful seraph.. he wanted to greet you..” A guy said, he had black hair with grey streaks and he wore a mostly black outfit, with thick blank jacket with a fake fur hood that had belts? on it, and he had an long purple scarf with symbols on the end.

The had some paint on his face that had an pinkish/red animal paw on his forehead and gray slash marks on his cheeks, and his eyes were red….. he was one of them… but why did the man want him…? Hajime was suspicious of him and his eyes narrowed a bit. He stepped back a bit, “I wish for you to come with me, I will bring you to safety..” He said, “I don’t even know your name.. how can I trust you..?” Hajime asked, and the man fell silent, he didn’t know how he could get the beautiful seraph to trust him.

He wanted to make his babies{the animals} happy, he knows that they want the seraph to come home with them, but if giving his name could get the seraph to trust him then that would be good.. “My name is Tanaka Gundham, ruler of the Tanaka empire as the leader of ice.” He said, that shocked Hajime a bit, he did not expect that intro.. “Now I ask of you as the same beautiful seraph..” Tanaka- San replied, “I am… Hinata Hajime..” Hajime replied a little skeptical.. he did doesn’t exactly trust Tanaka yet.. mostly because of what his friends told him earlier about the people with red eyes..

But… they did say that they are violent and Tanaka hasn’t done anything to him yet.. but he remembered what Fukawa- San said about them, about them looking for Enoshima’s beloved brother or whatever.. and how he might be him.. but he was mostly worried about Nanami.. he wants to make sure that she is safe.. despite what his friends told him earlier about her and her classmates, “So you are this ‘Hinata- Kun’ that Lady Nanami speaks so fondly of? I am pleasured to meet you, Sir Hinata.” Tanaka- San said, “Huh..? You know Nanami..?” Hajime asked, “That I do Sir Hinata, and if you wish then I could gladly take you to her..” Tanaka- San said, “Okay..” Hajime replied with, he just needed to talk with her..

He wanted to make sure that what he was told was true, he didn’t see her in a while after he took up the project.. but it had probably failed, that’s why he was still here.. “Follow me Sir Hinata..” Tanaka- San said, Hajime was hesitant but he went with Tanaka- San, he felt uncomfortable with the animals being around him.. but he couldn’t simply run away, he needs to be careful about this and plan accordingly.. they soon saw Nanami- San but she was playing on a gameboy like she always used to do.

She didn’t look up.. what she wore was her usual blue cat jacket but the hood was over her head and one of the eyes was the Monokuma red one, and she was wearing an black and white button up shirt with a black tie that vaguely smelled like his old cologne that he wore, “Lady Nanami, I brought someone who is great importance to you.” Tanaka- San said, “Huh..? Who is it-“ Nanami- San saw him, “Hinata- Kun? What are you still doing here?” Nanami- San asked, “I just woke up in an hospital not too long ago.” Hajime explained, how long as it been since he woke up? A few hours?

She paused again.. like she used to do, “How are you feeling..? Do you have any pain anywhere?” She asked, “I guess.. okay? I haven’t been attacked yet by anyone and I don’t feel any pain anymore..” Hajime replied, suddenly one of the Monomi’s went up, they were completely pink and they two red eyes, the bunny didn’t say anything, “Oh… so these are the two girls destroy the Monomi’s that I worked so hard on?” Nanami- San said, “Huh..? You’re the one’s who created them?” Hajime asked, “Well I mean.. they were mine designs, Monaca just created them.” Nanami- San said, Hajime didn’t reply, he wasn’t expecting his friend to turn out like this.

Well he wasn’t expecting any of this happening, “Oh and Hinata- Kun, how the project turn out for you? It wasn’t what you expected?” Nanami- San said suddenly, this caught Hajime off guard, how did she know about the project, he thought that only he and the elites of the school know about this. He saw Nanami- San smile, “I think it’s best that you go to sleep now Hinata- Kun.. as you would need it when we game again.” Nanami- San said, Hajime was confused but he felt pain to his head then he dropped down.

——————————————————————

And when Hajime woke up, he saw himself in the pod where the Izuru Kamakura project was happening, and he saw the people doing the experiments then suddenly smoke came in as a explosion went off, it killed off the people doing the experiment then he saw a blonde haired girl with two large ponytails and a girl with short black hair with freckles.

There was something sinister in the blonde hair girl eyes, “C’mon Ikusaba! We can have Hinata- senpai waiting..” The blonde hair girl said.. ‘I guess this is Enoshima- San.. and the other one helps her..’ Hajime thought, “Coming Junko.” Ikusaba- San said, she went into the room and observed Hajime sleeping self, Enoshima- San gave off an wide grin, then she pulled out an USB drive, “What does that do Junko?” Ikusaba- San asked, “God you’re such an idiot Ikusaba! Haven’t you been listening to me when I talk? Our dear Hinata- senpai has to wake up.” Enoshima- San said, “Huh..? But I thought that you wanted Kamakura..?” Ikusaba- San replied, “I changed my mind and besides what great despair is it for when Hinata- senpai wakes up and see everything that he loves is destroyed.. he will be crumbling with despair!” Enoshima- San said with a grin.. this chick wanted him to feel despair..?

But why..? And why him of all people, “Ah.. okay Junko..” Ikusaba- San said, the UBS drive had finally finished what it was doing then the lid to his pod opened up, “I wonder if any talents were put into him yet..” Ikusaba- San said, “Well duh! Of course they did..! Now shit up or else we’re going to wake him, now we need to bring him to an hospital so he would be cared for until it’s time.” Enoshima- San said, “Okay Junko.” Ikusaba- San said as she picked up the unconscious Hajime, they carried to where Monaca was, “Monaca promises to keep Big Bro safe until it’s time, then we would need to bring him back.” Monaca said, they brought him into a van then they all took off.

They took him to the hospital where he woke up in, and they placed him in the room and into his gown, then a few years later passed by and now the whole world was in despair and he was starting to wake up.

Chapter Text

Hajime awoke in a room, it was dark, except for a small nightlight. He felt something watching him, he couldn’t tell what was tho, then he felt small paws walk up on his bed, it was an black cat with orange eyes, it had white paws and a white muzzle with a tips on it’s tail. It purred on it saw Hajime, he was confused on how a cat got there, the cat dove underneath the blankets and nuzzled up against Hajime then he fell asleep.

He thought the kitty looked adorable, and from what he can see, he saw other kitties asleep on their own beds, he felt a shift in the bed as he felt someone or something nuzzling against him. It felt oddly warm.. like a person, he felt an arm pull him close to something warm. It was a bandaged up hand that appears to be male, “Hm..? Sir Hinata I apologize for me being in here.. I recall me falling asleep in a different lair..” Tanaka- San said.. from what he could tell, Tanaka- San was being genuine, “Mhm.. it’s fine.. you might’ve slept walked or something..” Hajime mumbled an reply, “That could be correct.. thank you for forgiving me Sir Hinata.” Tanaka- San said, “You’re welcome..” Hajime replied, “If you wish, do you want to travel with me to meet the others?” Tanaka-San asked.. perhaps if I get close with then all..

I could help Naegi- Chan and Fukawa- San, I can help them with the remnants. I nodded, “Yes that is okay, I would like to come.” I replied, “Alright, let me clothe you Sir Hinata, if that is alright with you.” Tanaka- San said, this stunned Hajime a bit, “E- eh..? I think I’ll be fine thank you.” Hajime replied to Tanka- San, he didn’t know why the make was acting this way, he could understand the ‘Sir Hinata’ as this could be the way that he talks, although he found it a little difficult to understand but he did find it enjoyable.

Hajime got off the bed, “The clothes are in the drawer, please come out when you are ready.” Tanaka- San said then he left to wait outside for him, Hajime walked over to the drawer, and he opened the drawer, he saw a long sleeved white button up shirt, and he saw many other ones in different colors and different styles, he picked the white button up.

He took off the warm pajamas that he had on and placed on the white button up, he pulled the other drawer out and picked a pair of black pants and he placed them on, he folded up his pajamas neatly and placed them on the bed. He found socks and he placed them on then he fixed the bed quickly and went out of the room of where Tanaka- San was now in his outfit that he first met Hajime with, Hajime wonder how the fuck he changed that fast.

Tanaka- San smiled a bit once he saw Hajime, “I am glad that you have made it now, I have your shoes and coat near the entrance.” Tanaka- San said, Hajime saw brown boots and a fluffy black coat, “Thank you.. but why the coat?” Hajime asked, “We don’t wish for you to be cold, as you also might catch a cold.” Tanaka- San replied, “Could I ask who is ‘we’?” Hajime asked, he knew that Nanami- San might be one of them, but he couldn’t tell about the other remnants or the W.O.H..

Tanaka- San looked over at Hajime as he got his shoes and coat on, “It is all the followers of Lady Enoshima.” Tanaka- San replied to Hajime, “Ah.. so what are we going to basically do?” Hajime asked, “You are going to meet everyone that Lady Enoshima had trusted herself to.” Tanaka- San said, Hajime smiled a bit, despite the nervousness he was in because of everything, he was glad that he will meet Nanami- San’s classmates.

Tanaka-San held Hajime’s hand and they walked out, Tanaka- San was protective of Hajime as they walked, it was an comfortable silence as they walked towards a meeting space, “You would only meet a few for today, the rest you’ll meet later.” Tanaka- San said, he nodded, he saw five other people there, two females and three males, “Everyone, I would like to introduce you Sir Hajime Hinata, the one Lady Enoshima and Lady Nanami told us about.” Tanaka- San said, he kept me behind him tho..

The others turned to me, and I clung onto Tanaka- San.. as I felt like he was the only one that I could trust so far, they all stared at him, well expect for Tanaka- San and some other guy with a hat and long grey scarf, “Can you stop fucking staring at the guy? He looks fucking terrified.” He said, “Yeah yeah whatever Fuyuhiko.” A pink hair guy said, “Sir Hinata, the one with pink hair is named Soda Kazuichi, the one with the gate is Kuzurya Fuyuhiko, the one with grey hair in pigtails is Pekoyama- San, and the one with dark brown hair is Owari Akane, and the one next to her is Nidai Nekomaru.” Tanaka- San said, “Wow, that is the first time I heard him call us by our names.” Soda- Kun said, Tanaka-San glared at him.

He stood near Tanaka- San, “It is okay Sir Hinata, they won’t hurt you.” Tanaka- San said in a gentle voice, “A- alright..” I replied, he walked with Tanaka- San to where Kuzurya- Kun, Pekoyama- San, and Soda- Kun sat, the others went bank to minding their own business, “Has Chiaki told you about us? Has she told you about Miss Sonia?” Soda- Kun asked scaring Hajime a bit, “U- um.. she only-“ He was interrupted by Tanaka- San, “Shut it fiend, you are obviously scaring Sir Hinata.” Tanaka- San said, “O- oh..! I see..” Soda- Kun said, “Are you hungry? We can ask Teruteru to prepare you something.” Kuzurya- Kun asked, “Yeah.. that would be nice.. thank you.” Hajime replied, Kuzurya- Kun nodded.

A Monokuma bot in a suit came over, Hajime hid behind Tanaka- San, “Do not be afraid Sir Hinata, this Monobot would not hurt you, he will take your order.” Tanaka- San said, he held Hajime’s hand to comfort him, “A- ah.. alright, um.. what is there to eat..?” Hajime asked, “There is plenty things to eat, what is it that you prefer to eat?” Tanaka- San asked, “I think he needs protein badly.” Soda- Kun said, “That observation is correct, surely a steak might do..” Tanaka- San said, “Um.. c- can I have a medium rare Ribeye steak?” Hajime asked, “Really? You can order anything you want and you got that?” Soda- Kun asked, “Huh.. sorry? I- I don’t know what other steaks there are..” Hajime replied, “Monokuma, get him Kobe steak, medium rare.” Kuzurya- Kun said, “H- huh..? Um..” Hajime stumbled out, the Monobot nodded and left into the kitchen.

He sat there, he felt embarrassed, “Don’t worry, I’ll pay for it.” Kuzurya- Kun said, “But why..?” Hajime asked, “Do you wish to have something to quench your thirst?” Tanaka-San asked, “Yeah that would be nice.. can I have an orange juice?” Hajime asked, “Alright.” Tanaka- San replied, an Monomi bot came in a maid dress came over, “Sir Hinata, tell the Monomi what you would like to drink.” Tanaka- San said, “O- orange juice.. please.” Hajime replied, the Monomi bit left as well. Hajime sat there, “So.. how’s it been?” Soda- Kun asked, “Um.. it’s been going good, it was nice over at Tanaka-San’s place.. he kept me warm.” Hajime replied, Soda- Kun glared at Tanaka- San while the other one smirked.

This rivalry confused Hajime, he didn’t know that those two had an unusual relationship, “Piss off animal sex watcher.” Soda- Kun said, “Hmph.. silence sea bottom.” Tanaka- San replied, “U- um..” Hajime stayed silent, “Both of you shut it. Hajime’s food is almost here, and I’m sure he doesn’t want anyone bugging him while he eats.” Kuzurya- Kun said, they did thankfully stop bickering and soon his food and drink arrived but he noticed that Owari- San and Nidai- San have left.

Hajime took his food and cut the steak, he ate the cut piece of steak and his mouth watered, “Wow! This is delicious!” Hajime said in joy, he heard the male next to him chuckle softly but he didn’t say anything about it, “Well it was made by the Ultimate Chef.” Soda- Kun said, “Oh really? That’s amazing.” Hajime said, “It is.. his cooking surely is amazing.” Tanaka- San said, “Do you got a place to stay Hajime?” Soda- Kun asked, “If my house is still okay, then yes.” Hajime replied, “If your home is devastated then you could stay with me and my animals. You will be under my protection.” Tanaka- San said, “A- alright..” Hajime replied, he continued eating his food, and he eventually finished and drink, “D- do we pay?” Hajime asked, “No we don’t Sir Hinata, we are free to leave now, let us return home.” Tanaka- San said as he got up, Hajime followed suite.

Tanaka- San took Hajime’s hand again and they walked back to Tanaka- San’s house, and he was brought to an area where some of Tanaka- San’s animals were, “I would like for you to meet them, I promise that they won’t hurt you Sir Hinata.” Tanaka- San said, Hajime was still a little fearful, Tanaka- San sensed it, “It is alright Sir Hinata, you can meet then later if you wish when you become more comfortable..” Tanaka- San replied, “Thank you..” Hajime replied, he was taken back to the room he woke up, the kitty was sleeping peacefully, “Mh.. Sock the bringer of realms is sleeping, how adorable.” Tanaka- San said, he smiled at his adorable baby sleeping, “And I apologize again if I brought any fright onto when you awoke with me sleeping with you..” Tanaka- San said again, “It is fine.. anyways, is this Sock’s room as well? I want to make sure that he has everything he needs in here.” Hajime replied, he smiled at the adorable kitty sleeping.

Tanaka- San smiled a bit, “Fear not Sir Hinata, he does have everything in here, so you not need to worry.” Tanaka- San said, this brought any sadness in removing Sock at ease, “That is good.” Hajime said, “Good night Sir Hinata.” Tanaka- San said, “Good night Tanaka- San.” Hajime replied as Tanaka- San left, closing the door, Hajime sighed a bit, he has to get used to this if he wants to help Naegi- Kun with everyone and to save Nanami- San. Hajime changed into pajamas and he got into bed, Sock woke up and jumped off the bed to eat his food in the corner of the room, chomping down happily his food.

Hajjme smiled softly at the kitty, then he closed his eyes and fell asleep eventually, Sock finished his food and he did the zoomies a bit and then he drank some water on the other side of the room, and then he played with his mousey and other toys, and he went back to Hajime and purred whilst Hajime slept pet him and Sock eventually fell asleep in the caring arms of Hajime

Chapter Text

Naegi- Chan growled a bit as she walked back and forth in a line, “M- Maru.. there was n- nothing that we c- could’ve done to save him..” Fukawa- San tried to reason with her friend, “I- I know.. but he was the key! We could’ve used his help to save the remnants!” Naegi- Chan replied, “I know.. but pacing around won’t help him! All we know is that those damn brats took him like my Master Byakuya!” Fukawa- San said, “Or one of Enoshima’s followers..” Naegi- Chan replied, “T- that could be true as well.. d- dammit! Why does t- this have to be so complicated!” Fukawa- San pulled at her hair in annoyance.

Naegi- Chan grew worried for Hajime.. who knows what horrors he has experienced! She knows that Fukawa- San is worried as well.. “I- I think we should contact your b- brother Maru..” Fukawa- San said, “You’re right, Makoto surely knows what to do!” Naegi- Chan was happy with this result, “I- I’m sure that we can find a c- computer or s- something somewhere..” Fukawa- San said, soon they were attacked by Monodestroy bots, her bedding red eyes shot lasers at them, her small arms so became part machine guns, they fired at the two Future Foundation workers and they both escaped the bunny.

They both stopped to catches their breaths after escaping Monishot. They soon found a tower that was a huge Monokuma on it, they thought that they could find something that they could use to save Hajime. They had to travel through the tower, it appeared to be abandoned and it was dim, and eventually one of the rooms that they went through they found a computer. It was old but it still worked, they managed to send a message to Naegi- Kun, ‘Important please read: The Remnants of Despair have taken Hinata Senpai, and his location is unknown. We ask that you send help.’ They typed to him and sent it, then they heard a ticking sound, “C- crap! It’s an Monibomb!” Naegi- Chan said, they both got out of the room then the Monibomb exploded, destroying almost everything in the room, somehow the computer survived, they both sighed in relief.

They were both thankful that they escaped the bunny, “A- at least we were a- able to contact y- your brother.” Fukawa- San said, “Yeah hopefully Makoto would know what to do. He is smart.” Naegi- Chan said smiling softly at Fukawa- San, “A- anyways.. we should leave, i- it’s dangerous out here, and I- I need to remember everything t- that happened in H- Hope’s Peak.” Fukawa- San said, “Oh? What do you mean by they Toko? I thought you said that it was nearly impossible to gain them back?” Naegi- Chan asked, “I- I mean.. what E- Enoshima gave us to erase o- our memories is w- wearing off.” Fukawa- San said, “That’s good! We can see if any of the memories could help us find Hinata Senpai.” Naegi- Chan said happily, “Yeah we’ll see…” Fukawa- San, they walked and disappeared into the darkness.

They were able to make it make to the Future Foundation in one piece, Naegi- Kun talked to them about it, and they told them about Hajime and how if they saved him from the Remnants, he could help them save the Remnants themselves and put them in the Neo World Program.

——————————————————————

Fukawa- San was sitting at one of the benches outside of the Ultimate building, it was at a fountain separating the two buildings of the Ultimates and Reserve’s Course, she wanted to think of romantic novel ideas, then suddenly a brunette male came out of the Reserve’s Course building, and he walked down the pathway, and he saw Fukawa- San. He stood near by, he didn’t want to ask her to love as that would be rude as Nanami- San might take a bit, then Nanami- San came and saw Fukawa- San, “Oh.. Hinata- Kun, should we play somewhere else? How about outside the Ultimate’s building? You might meet a few of my classmates.” Nanami- San asked, “Yeah I guess so..” Hajime smiled a bit at Nanami- San, she took his hand and lead him away, Fukawa- San watched them leave with a cautious look in her eyes.

——————————————————————

Fukawa- San awoke, ‘ Mh.. that was strange.. did I know a little bit about Hinata Senpai and Nanami Senpai relationship? ’ Fukawa- San thought, she sighed as she got up, she head out of her room and went to the meeting room, they were going to discuss on how they are going to save Hinata, Fukawa- San entered the room, “Welcome to see you, Fukawa. Please take a seat.” The second in command, Munakata Kyosuke said, Fukawa- San nodded and sat down, “It has come to my attention that Hinata Hajime is being held captured by the Remnants. We are trying to see if there are any weak points on where we can then rescue him.” Munakata- San said, “Yeah but how are we gonna do it? We can’t exactly expect the Remnants to simply hand him over willing.” Sakakura Juzo, the 6th Office Branch Director said, “Yes… I am aware of that, that’s why we are going to figure out how to get him back, Sakakura.” Munakata- San replied, Fukawa- San had thought of a few ideas along with everyone else.

Until The 10th Branch Office Director Mitarai Ryota said something, “W- what about some bait? We could stage of where some place is unaffected, as from what our Intels gathered is that they seem to somewhat care for Hinata. They took him to Haramura- San and he ate a meal there.” Mitarai- San said, “But what does bring us, Mitarai? For all we know is that they’re treating him well so they could kill him later.” Munakata- San said, “I highly doubt it, they’re calling him ‘Enoshima’s Bother’ or something. I met the guy before and Hinata- Kun doesn’t seem like the type, and his eye color isn’t red either.” Ruruka Ando, the 8th Branch Officer Director said, “I agree, I highly doubt that they would kill someone who Enoshima claims to be her brother.” Sonosuke Izayoi, the 9th Branch Officer Director said, he agreed with Ruruka- San, Hajime wasn’t the type of person to be a Remnant.

Tengan- San seemed to agree with Mitarai- San’s idea, “I’m going have to incline to agree with Mr. Mitarai’s idea.” Tengan Kazuo, the Future Foundation Chairman said, “Yeah but who are we going to use as bait? None of the Remnants know who you are.” Munakata- San said, “That is true but.. we can probably use Hinata as the bait.. if they do care about him then..” Mitarai- San suggested, “Then Hinata- Kun might want to go there, and like Mitarai- Kun said, if they do truly care about him, they’ll take him there.” Ruruka- San said, everyone fell quiet once it was agreed.

They do know that they would mostly only listen to Hajime, “U- um.. I don’t know i- if this is important but.. I had an dream.. o- or a glimpse of the p- past..” Fukawa- San finally said, “Tell us, if you think that it might help us bring Hinata here or any relations he has with the other Remnants.” Munakata- San said, “W- well it was of Hinata- Senpai and Nanami- Senpai, t- they were going to the f- fountain between the t- two buildings, but I guess t- that I was s- sitting on their bench s- so they left, and Nanami- Senpai said that they could meet h- her other classmates.” Fukawa- San said, “Thank you for the information Mrs. Fukawa, this might be helpful in the case.” Tengan- San said, the meeting ended there.

Fukawa- San left the room and returned to her own room, he thought about everything, “I- I hope that they’re right.. Hinata- Senpai d- did seem very nice..” Fukawa- San said to herself, she knew that it might be difficult even dangerous to a degree to save him, but they have to try at the very least as it could save humanity if they are correct of them only listening to Hajime, she fell asleep again, hoping to save Hajime from any dangers he’s experiencing as they speak.

——————————————————————

Hajime awoke from his sleep, Sock was still resting in his arms, and Tanaka- San was gone, where to? Hajime didn’t know where, he saw that it was now morning but he didn’t want to disturb Sock’s sleep, he could feel the little motor running, he cooed at the adorableness of the kitty. He pet his fur softly careful not to disturb him in his rest, eventually he saw Sock yawned and stretch on him, Sock licked Hajime’s face to awake up, Hajime carefully sat up.

He continued to pet Sock who purred happily at the attention from Papa’s{Gundham} friend. Hajime got off the bed and got dressed into the clothes that were in the drawer. He went outside of the bedroom and Sock followed him, the house was strangely empty. He looked around and found a note, ‘ I will be gone for a short time, I will be back soon Sir Hinata, food will be in the fridge. ’ The note read, “Huh? Where’s Tanaka- San gone off to? I hope it’s not what I’m thinking about..” Hajime said out loud, he shuddered at the thought of Tanaka- San killing people, he hates that he’s here but he doesn’t know what will happen to him if he tried to leave without an real plan.

He was only there for like.. a few days a most! He needed to leave, but he needs to plan something beforehand. He thought of many ones before he finally came up with one, one that will allow him to escape but also capture the Remnants and help Naegi- Kun with the Neo World Program.

He grew happy with the idea, he knew that he couldn’t write it down in Japanese just in case it gets discovered, so he wrote it in Morse code, ‘ .. / - .-. -.-- / .- -. -.. / -.-. --- -. - .- -.-. - / -. .- . --. .. -....- / -.- ..- -. / .- -. -.. / .- .-.. . .-. - / .... .. -- / --- ..-. / -- -.-- / .--. .-.. .- -. --..-- / .- ... -.- / --- -. . / --- ..-. / - .... . / .-. . -- -. .- -. - ... / - --- / --. .- - .... . .-. / - .... . / .-. . ... - / --- ..-. / - .... . / .-. . -- -. .- -. - ... / .- -. -.. / .... .- ...- . / - .... . / ..-. ..- - ..- .-. . / ..-. --- ..- -. -.. .- - .. --- -. / -.-. .- .--. - ..- .-. . / - .... . -- / - .... . .-. . ‘ He wrote down and hide in his clothes, he was happy, he could help his friend out and help her classmates snd hopefully one day, all of them can become friends, as from what he heard from Nanami- San, they were fairly kind people.. well except for Saionji- San, he picked on Tsumiki- San a bit from what he heard, and it became a little worse as Saionji- San got an growth spurt.

He hopes when he meets the rest, and especially Saionji- San, they at least not threaten him.. or anything, but he doubts that anything might happen to him because of him being ‘Enoshima’s brother’ or whatever but if they do, he hopes that at least Nanami- San would protect him from anyone who does.. he still misses her, and he wants to help her get better with her classmates, he sighed softly and he went back to Sock to cuddle for the rest of the time.

——————————————————————

Later Sock was making him biscuits for him, he meowed happily at Hajime and licked his nose, and purred, “Heya buddy.” Hajime said as he smiled a bit, he sat up and Sock climbed onto his lap, Hajime pet him, “I’m happy that you are glad to see me, how are you doing?” He baby talked to Sock, who meowed and chirped in response which got a soft chuckle from Hajime, he enjoys the kitty.

He went to the kitchen while Sock trailed behind him, and he sat and watch him while he went to eat the food that was left for him, it was good, no where near Harumaru- San’s food but it was still delicious, Hajime could tell whoever made it, make sure to take extra care of it, it brought a small smile to him. He knew that he was safe here but it is still nerve wracking and unsettling, especially since he’s sharing a house with one of the Remnants.. although Tanaka- San hasn’t done anything to him.. yet.

But his animals were adorable tho, especially Sock, whose a sweet kitty, he looked at the kitty who looked at him and slowly blinked at him, Hajime knew of this behavior and what it meant, he slowly blinked back at the kitty, Sock’s tail curl up and he lifted it upwards. Sock jumped into on the counter near Hajime, “Sock.. does Tanaka-San let you in the counter?” Hajime asked the kitty, Sock titled his head, but then he loafed into a bun and he purred happily. He finished the food and washed the plate in the sink, Sock watched curiously and followed him out of the kitchen.

He went back into his bedroom and Sock did a stretch, “Oh, that’s a big stretch!” Hajime said, Sock did a lil chirp of happiness, Sock loafed back into a bun and rested near Hajime, he didn’t know what to do really, he was left alone with a few of the animals that were here, he sat on the bed and Sock jumped onto the bed and went onto his lap and loafed, Hajime petted him, “You’re a good kitty Sock.” Hajime said as he petted Sock, he eventually jumped off his lap and went to his food, Hajime watched with a small smile. He laid down on the bed and he grew tired again, soon he fell asleep on the bed.

Chapter Text

Tanaka- San walked into Hajime’s room and found him asleep, he saw the washed dish in the sink and the note, it was now noon, he and the others decided to meet up at the Chef Hanamura’s restaurant, and the others who haven’t met him wanted to see him, Sock was curled up on his chest, he was also asleep, he went over to them and gingerly got Sock off of him, he placed him on the ground and he purred, and he rubbed his body against his legs.

He slightly nudged Hajime awake, “Sir Hinata, our comrades and I had thought of going to the Chef Hanamura’s restaurant, as the others wished to see you.” Tanaka-San said, he heard Hajime groaned tiredly, and he rubbed his eyes, he stayed by his- Sir Hinata and he sat up, “Okay… let me get dressed.” Hajime replied, “I have clothing for you to change into, Sir Hinata. I hope for you to find them comfortable.” Tanaka-San said, Hajime was surprised that they had clothes for him..

Wait.. now he thinks about it, how did they even get his measurements? Like.. what about all the clothes that he has in the drawers? Wait.. nevermind he doesn’t want to find out, “Thank you Tanaka- San, what is the clothing that you want me to wear?” He asked, he needs to strategize on how to contact Naeegi- Kun, and get the Remnants over to the Neo World Program, he wants to help them.. especially Nanami, but for now he needs to play by their rules, “This was personally made for you by your deceased sister.” Tanaka- San said, it was a mostly black outfit but it had some red in it.

It was a double long vents suit, the inside of it was a free speech red, Tanaka- San exited his room, and he placed it on, it felt comfortable. If it weren’t for the colors of it, he would’ve worn this a lot more, but it felt too weird to be seen in this when the Remnants are usually associated with it.. only Nidia- San and Owari- San are the only exception from what he knows, but it would be nice to meet everyone else. It could be beneficial for him to see how he could help them all and save Nanami-San.

He took the clothing and went into the bathroom change, the fabric felt soft to the touch and the cuffs felt right. Tanaka-San knocked on the door, “Sir Hinata, have you finished?” He asked, “Yes, I’ll come out now.” Hajime replied, he opened up the door, and Gundham was dressed in his usual clothes, “Thank you, we shall leave now.” Tanaka- San said, he lead Hajime out and back towards the restaurant.

He saw new people, but he did recognize Soda- Kun, Pekoyama- San, and Kuzurya- Kun. They went over to their table, and he gave them an awkward smile, “Tell us if any one of em’ is bothering you.” Kuzurya- Kun said, “I will.. so who is everyone else?” Hajime asked, “The one with two pigtails is Saionji Hiyoko, and the one next to her is Mioda Ibuki, the one with the camera is Koizumi Mahiru, the one with chopped hair is Tsumiki Mikan, and the one who is the chef is named Hanamura Teruteru. You have seen everyone else but the princess, servant mortal, and imposer.” Tanaka- San said, Hajime felt a little awkward with everyone there.

He looked over at Koizumi- Chan, sge smiled, “Hello Mr. Hinata, would you like to see some of my photos?” She asked, “He wouldn’t Mahiru, remember what Lady Enoshima said about her brother.” Saionji- San said, “Oh.. sorry about that Mr. Hajime, maybe some other time.” Koizumi- Chan replied, “Huh…? Alright then..” Hajime quietly replied to the duo, “How are you doing dear? Have you been feeling well?” Hanamaru- Kun asked, “I’ve been doing good.” Hajime replied, “That’s good dear, say if you need any fresh meat. I’m your guy.” Hanamaru- Kun said, “Cease your perverse behavior.” Tanaka- San said, he extended his arm in front of me.

Hanamaru- Kun shrugged a bit and walked off, Mioda- Chan then went over and rest her arms on the table, “Soooo… you’re the Hinata Hajime that everyone keeps buzzing about. Since Gundham- Chan already introduced myself, there is no need for introductions.” Mioda- Chan said, “Yeah I guess…” Hajime replied, “Annyywwayyysss… Ibuki has to go now. Cya later Hajime- Chan, let’s go Hiyoko- Chan.” Miodua- Chan left the table, “Goodbye Hinata.” Saionji-San said before she left with Mioda- Chan. Hajime awkwardly smiled at them leaving, “Don’t be frightened Sir Hinata as I am here with you.” Tanaka- San said, “Thank you Tanaka- San.” Hajime replied, he smiled a bit.

A brown cat came through, “Hazelnut.. there you are.” Tanaka- San said happily, he got away from the table and went to picked her up, she raised her paws up as Tanaka- San picked her up, he held her like a baby. He when back to the table, Hazelnut looked at Hajime curiously, she meowed at him, her tail flicking curiously towards him, “That is Sir Hinata, Hazelnut, he would be our future leader.” Tanaka- San said, Hajime didn’t want to draw attention to the ‘future leader’ part, he could ask about it later. He smiled softly at Hazelnut and slowly blinked at her.

Tanaka- San seemed happy that he knew to slow blink at her, “It seems that you have some knowledge of the feline species, Sir Hinata.” Tanaka- San said, “Yeah, a few stray cats used to live in my neighborhood. I would always try and feed them.” He replied, “You are… very kind hearted Sir Hinata. I give you my thanks for helping the defenseless felines.” He said, Hajime didn’t reply to him, he played with Hazelnut, she purred a lot and licked his hand, she held onto it with her paws.

He smiled softly at her and pet her with his other hand, she was looking at him curiously, she was interested by the hooman that her Papa loves, she wants to know how this hooman is or how he behaves. Perhaps when she passes by Sock, she could ask about the new hooman. She purred in her Papa’s hold, she sensed a good aura around the ‘Sir Hinata’ person, so she knows that she could trust him with her Papa.

Tanaka- San looked happily at his baby, she was happy with Sir Hinata. He knew that Sir Hinata would make an amazing ruler, he would care for all of his babies. He smiled softly, Sir Hinata continued to pet Hazelnut, she made air biscuits for him. Sir Hinata kept on petting her, and cooing at her. He knew that he would have to bring Sir Hinata home soon as he didn’t want those pesky teens to steal him away, he knows that they’ll only bring him down.

Sir Hinata would become an amazing ruler thanks to him and his comrades. He would make sure that Sir Hinata will become loved, he was Lady Enoshima’s brother after all. He deserves the best, he doesn’t know it yet but they would slowly introduce him to ruling, he can learn from the princess. He knows that she would teach him the proper way of raising his kingdom, and they’ll all be by his side.

Sir Hinata just has to meet everyone else first.. perhaps later as the princess has been busy with her duties, but he knew that his Sir Hinata is patient and will wait for her. He smiled softly, he had to bring Sir Hinata home after his meal. He took Sir Hinata’s hand carefully as he lead him out.

The walk home wasn’t much, but it was nice, Hazelnut was brought home and Sock was happy to see her. He brought Hazelnut down to the ground and she hopped out of the hold, she ran around the house to let out extra energy. He smiled fondly at that, Sir Hinata was home as well. He knows that they had a long day, and Sir Hinata as three more people to introduce himself to them. He feed all of his babies and he went to take Sir Hinata to bed.

Sir Hinata was a little confused, “It’s still morning, or like afternoon.” He knew that, but he knew that Sir Hinata had experienced an operation so he needs all the rest he needs, “But you just came out of an operation not too long ago. You need to rest.” Sir Hinata finally relented, “Fine.. I’ll go sleep.” He left so he could change and sleep.

——————————————————————

Hajime was glad that Tanaka-San left, he could have some breathing room. He changed rather quickly, as he just wanted to lay down and not bother with the world. He got underneath the covers and he just laid there. He wasn’t tired but he didn’t want Tanaka-San to make him go to bed. He just relaxed then suddenly a small white paw hit his cheek, it was Sock, he was purring contently and he laid near his neck.

Sock was looking at him curiously then Hazelnut came in and laid on his stomach,  she curled into a ball and she began purring happily. The comforting purrs were peaceful and helped him feel better. They were the two things that helped him right now, he was beginning to get sleepy again. He didn’t want to disturb the kitties so he just fell asleep with the kitties on him.

Chapter Text

I’m generally unhappy how I wrote this, I’m still leaving this up for people who love this as I know a lot of people like this, but this was one of my first story driven fictions as I mostly wrote one shots and I was just writing as I go, so I’ll probably call this one a different option as I write a new one where I generally have an idea on what I want in it and how the character relations are, I’m sorry to everyone who patiently waited for this
