Monday-Early Morning-Cloudy.
Shibuya Station Square.
Protesting Man:”Tragedy has fallen upon us once again! Could this puzzling accident be a coincidence? To ensure the safety of the people, countermeasures must be taken immediately...” A man blared his speech on the microphone outside of the station.
Ren had time so he went towards the loyal dog statue and took a photo, he also took a video of him turning around showing the skyscrapers sending it to the social media accounts, looking better he had 34 followers in Link and 27 on Instagram just for the photos he took earlier in the morning.
Ren:’This many followers? Already? Well….what do I know of social media? *sigh*, at least I got a few positive comments’
Soon he saw an attractive female reporter, she had short, shoulder length brown hair, black eyes long eyelashes and pink lipstick, and a cameraman standing right in front of the station, she had some notes on hand, her mic had the Tokyo NHK logo.
Attractive Female Reporter:“...Thank you Nakota-san, we are coming live at Shibuya station, the accident happened in the line from Shibuya to Ikebukuro, Today the transfers are late--”
He passed behind the reporter, showing his piercing grey eyes in front of the national live television, his glasses still in his pocket.
Attractive Female Reporter:”--huh?... Hey you, student-san…”
Ren:”Hrm?”
The reporter placed a microphone to his face, Ren had a bit of a cold sweat running down the back of his neck as the camera pointed at him.
Ren:’Well, damn, why did she choose me?’ Ren pondered, he looked at the reporter's face and saw the answer, she had a light pink blush hidden under her makeup.
Attractive Female Reporter:”What is your name?”
Ren:”Amamiya Ren, Occupation: Student” Ren said with his usual deep voice, the female blushed, even more, Ren saw it and mentally groaned.
Ren:’Why?! What the hell is happening?!’
Attractive Female Reporter:”W-With the worries about the string of accidents, and the big tragedy that happened yesterday, what are your thoughts?”
Ren gathered his thoughts.
Ren:”We still don’t know who’s at fault for these accidents, the frequency of them and the similarities are glaring, perhaps someone or something is behind them, but this is just baseless accusation for now… For all of the families and friends who lost someone yesterday”
His piercing eyes took a piercing and empathetic quality, his voice took a personal tone.
Ren: “I am deeply sorry, the pain you must feel must be agonizing, however, I know that you are strong, and it will be hard, but you will surely be able to move past your loss, those are my sincere thoughts”
Ren:’Wow this is embarrassing, and my speech is so cringeworthy, why did I need to act like an ‘intellectual’, can I redo it? Oh for the love of Igor why did I have to do this?’
The woman and the cameraman were stunned at the empathetic response to her question, the normal Japanese citizen was so much different, always holding a mask of politeness, however this teen showed true emotion, his true face to national television.

Ren just wanted to crawl up a hole and stay there forever, however, his face was stoic as ever.
Attractive Female Reporter:”T-This has been Saya, and an honest interview with Amamiya Ren-kun, our promising youth gives his well wishes towards the families affected, now to you Nagoya-san...” Soon the cameraman gave a thumbs up, and they relaxed.
The reporter put a hand on his chest as it caressed him, he didn’t shy away from the touch.
Saya:”Thank you for your cooperation, here is my business card, call me if you need something…” She gave him her business card and walked away with the cameraman.

Shibuya Station Square.
Finding the Ginza line was a bit difficult...but the attendants near the station made it clear to go to the Teikyu building next door, He observed some ads from an idol called Kujikawa Rise, it advertised her new album ‘Sapphire’, he entered the Teikyu building and boarded the yellow train from the Ginza line.
Ren:’Kujikawa Rise…’

Monday-Early Morning-Rainy.
Yongen-Jaya Cafe Leblanc.
A man at the counter grumbled.
Man in a Suit:”Oh man… Did it say it was going to rain today?”
Sojiro, who was previously watching the TV turned to the customer in a bit of a shock.
Sojiro:”Huh? It's raining outside?”
Man in a Suit:”It just started all of the sudden… This is why I hate the early spring, the forecast yesterday said today was cloudy, not rainy, *sigh*”
Sojiro put a finger to his forehead in thought.
Sojiro:”That reminds me… Did he take an umbrella…?”
Man in a Suit:”Hm? Who’re you talking about?”
Sojiro put his finger down and faced the customer, he shook his head.
Sojiro:“Don’t mind me… So, what will it be?”
Man in a Suit:”One house blend, please.”
Sojiro started working on the order.
Newscaster:”The effects of yesterday’s tragedy continues in today as various lines suffer delays and--”
Man in a Suit:”There’s been a lot of dangerous accidents lately. You know the subway accident? My coworker and her family got caught in it, she is in the hospital right now, but I’m afraid to tell her daughter didn’t make it...Well, it's creepy you know….the people who commit these accidents died soon after or even before the accidents happen...there is also those murderous sprees spreading over the country, psychotic breakdowns, all of the sudden they went mad and started attacking people… Strangely they return to normal when caught, but suffer shutdowns during the interrogation, dying as well.”
Sojiro:”Huh…” Sojiro pushed the blend towards the customer, soon the live from Shibuya station came, and when Ren appeared on TV Sojiro had another shock.

Monday-Early Morning-Rainy.
Aoyama Subway Platform.
Ren:’So this is Aoyama...Looks like I made it in time, school starts at 8:40 AM’

Ren:”Hrm?”
Ren heard some chatter, the main focus being the rain outside, he approached a gaggle of High school girls, overhearing their whispers.
Troubled Student:”There was another one of those strange accidents…This time it happened on a subway, If it weren’t a Sunday I might have been on it”
Scared Student:”There were a lot of deaths...Oh, gods...I can’t help but imagine me being there”
Anxious Student:”That’s really scary… How much longer do you think this sort of stuff will happen?”
Anxious Student:”Eh?” The girl looked at Ren, and her friends gasped, Ren passed them nonchalantly, ignoring their stunned expressions and the faint dusting of their cheeks.
Ren:’Again...what’s wrong?… does this has something to do with the velvet room? I have to ask Caroline and Justine privately afterward’
He went outside the station, the cold rain fell on his body as he searched for a roof, he found one near a shop of clothing, he needed to put the address of the school on his google maps, however, the red eye icon surged forward blocking the navigation.
Ren messed around with the screen, but gave up with a sigh, hearing pitter-patter, he looked and saw another student taking shelter by his side, her uniform was very modified she wore the standard black blazer over a white full zip hooded sweatshirt, it worn long to cover most of her short plaid skirt. Her sweatshirt has a red stripe between two blue stripes at the bottom, an S symbol near the front bottom on one side and a green four-leaf-clover symbol on the back of the hood. She wore red tights that covered all of her leg and brown boots with yellow laces.
She put her wet hood down revealing bright blue eyes and wavy platinum blonde hair styled in bushy pigtails, with parted side bangs on the right side of her face. She had a single yellow hair clip above her left ear, as well as small circular earrings on both ears, she had a lovely face, she was very tall, reaching 5’6” she was only 3 inches shorter than his 5’9” frame, his mind couldn’t help but wander towards her hourglass figure, however he returned his eyes to hers, his face was steaming a bit.
She sighed as her eyes dropped a bit, she looked around to see if the rain would let, and then her eyes finally found Ren’s grey ones, She smiled as her whole face burned, her hand on her chest.
Ren:”My name is Amamiya Ren, it’s nice to meet you”
Beautiful Girl:”Takamaki Ann, Nice to meet you Amamiya-kun”
Ren wanted to keep the conversation going, but he didn’t know how to approach her, he needed to find a common interest.
Ren:”Well what do you think of this weather?”
Ann:”I don’t particularly hate rain, but...this sucks.”
Ren:”So you like sunny best?”
Ann:”Yes! Sunny works best, I have even more photo shoots than usual in the summer...ah…”
Ren:”So...Modeling?”
Ann:”Ahh...mhm...It's only a tiny part-time job…” She shyly played with her pigtails.
Ren:”...It suits you, you are very cute after all Takamaki-san...” Ann blushed at the comment.
Ann looked at his uniform, it showed the year he was in, by the small button with a ‘2’ written on it.
Ann:”Amamiya-kun, I never saw you in the school, even though you are the same year as me, are you?”
Ren:”Hrm...I am a transfer student, Is the new year hard?”
Ann:”Are...you perhaps the one in the rumors?” She murmured.
Ren:”...Rumors?...”
Ann:”Nhn… It's nothing...” Ann shook her head as she denied.
Ren:’I see...there are rumors about me...what are they?’
Ann:’They are just fake rumors anyway, murderer, drug addict...yeah right, everyone was expecting a delinquent but...he is a full on Bishonen, he is also very tall for a teen’
Ann:”Umm, I am not the person you should talk to about this, but I think classes are a bit hard, I only do well in English”
Ren:”I see...Well, I guess I need to pull all stops to survive this year then.”
Ann:”Then--”
A car stopped interrupting Ann’s speech.
The window opened and a Jersey wearing man leaned over
Jersey wearing man:”Good morning. Do you want to give you a lift to school? You’re gonna be late.”
Ann:”Uhn, Thank you”
Ren saw the man’s eyes, he had the same eye as Azami, only much less pronounced, the same lustful eye, Ren stepped forward and put a hand on Ann’s shoulder, she looked at him and he shook his head.
Ann:”Umm, On second thought I still have to meet with Shiho, Sorry sensei...”
She then pulled her hoodie and started running in the direction of the school.
Being denied, the man looked into Ren’s eyes.
Jersey wearing man:”Do you need a lift?” while concealed, Ren could feel the distaste in the man’s voice as Ann’s back grew smaller and smaller in the distance.
Ren:”No. I don’t know you...Sorry.”
Jersey wearing man:”So you are the transfer student huh? Well...bye...See you at school”
Ren:’That man…’
He started the car and put his foot on the accelerator, leaving Ren behind, soon a boy with blonde hair ran towards the fading car, however it was too far away and the boy stopped.
