Saber felt odd, weightless really, like he was suspended in reality. Not the sky, nor the ocean, he just was. His left side was burning up, and he could feel his eye stinging. He tried screaming, but nothing came out... He could feel the air rushing past his teeth and lips, the vibrations of his vocal chords, but he heard nothing, nothing other than a high-pitched ringing. Suddenly a feminine hand with nail polish adorning it, gently placed itself over his left eye, pressing slightly, then leaving as quickly as it arrived. The pain receded, his eye stopped stinging and he felt comfortable... Almost as if someone had thrown a comforter over him in his sleep.

Saber sighed a little, closing his eye's letting the feeling caress him, sending him into a state of pure bliss that traveled every nerve, every cell of his body began to feel numb with pleasure... And then... He woke up.

It wasn't a violent emergence from sleep, but rather a regretful and longing-to-go-back-to one. Saber didn't stand up, he simply laid there staring at the ceiling of the room as his memories came back to him about his sister and sighed. Sen Ato finger probing his mouth, her pinning him down, and the delicious taste of blood in his mouth. In all honesty he should've leaps out of bed right there, ran back to Ikebukuro Academy, and called nxy right there, but he stayed. Though he was a little uneasy, he figured if the author wanted to eat him, she would've by now.

Saber tried to move, but found himself restrained by two thin, but strong restraints wrapped around his upper body. He also felt a weight on the top of his head and two more restraints on his legs. Unable to move his head, due to the death hold, he moved his eyes up to be met with a green puff of hair stands that tickled his forehead. He felt a warm breeze being blown into his hair and the restraints upon his legs shifted slightly and low, muffled groan pressed against his hair. Saber had already almost deduced what lay on him and his face turned beat red.

He then moved his free arm up and pushed the covers off himself, revealing none other than a sleeping Sen Ato, who hand entangled her body with his own. Saber felt his body heat up, he suddenly felt very itchy, uncomfortable, hot... He began breathing quietly faster, trying to suppress the arousal he felt. “M-miss Ato?” He asked, hoping she'd wake up and release him from her, while not provocative besides the entanglement of legs, warm soft skin, which could make any male buckle at the knees.

“Mmmm, you're awake, finally?” She yawned as she shifted the position of her head, and unraveled her limbs from the new Dark Magic user. She then rolled away, almost to the edge of the rather big bed they both occupied. The female Dark Magic users as well a half human sat up, stretched her arms and yawned once more. “It's a little past noon.” She wore a white, dress-like night gown which, though used straps that showed her bare shoulders and top of her cleavage, was dense enough to hide her more private areas from Saber, her hair was unruly and had a dozen's of cow-licks, her eyes were underlined by bags which showed just how tired she was, but in a flattering way. Saber noticed that the dress was practically just a sheet on the bottom and he assumed she hadn't worn any undergarments... He did his best to look away

“I'm sure-” she stretched, cracking her back, “you have some questions right now...” She paused, to fall back onto her soft bed, head just hanging over the edge, letting her hair flow down. Saber's suspicions were confirmed as, while not quite seeing it, he did see her legs end just before her groin began and noticed no fabric, when her gown flew up from the sudden movement. He made sure not to look once more. Instead, just focused on his questions.

“I realize I should be focusing on more important things, but, why were you... restraining... me this morning?” He asked, raising an eyebrow.

Sen laughed, throwing her head even farther back. “Restraining?” She asked, adoration of some sort in her voice. “That is called cuddling, Shi.” She said matter-of-factly holding up her pointer finger in the form of a lecture...

Saber's face flushed, due to the term she used for it. “Fine then, why were you cuddling me?”

“Because you're so handsome, Shi Saber Akamine...” She moaned out, stifling a laugh. Saber gasped at this in embarrassment, causing the author to smirk. “Just kidding... It's because you were crying...” She said a little somberly.

“Crying?” Saber asked, embarrassment forgotten.

“Yeah... You didn't stop whimpering since I force-fed you my blood... The only way I could get you to stop was by holding you.” She paused, “You were a mamma's boy weren't you?” She added, a little sad.

“I suppose so...” He replied. “Anyways, to more serious matters... I've come to terms surprisingly easily that I'm a Dark Magic user as well a half huma-”

“Half-Human and dark user!” She corrected quickly, throwing her finger up yet again.

“W-what?” He asked confused.

“There was something I noticed when I forced fed you.” She said, rising from her position, right eye closed. “Only one of your eyes-” she opened the closed eye and pointed to it, revealing that red and black eye, “Everyone who's a dark user have a different color it's called dark eye's but you activate only one as of now.”

Saber nodded understandingly, “So, you're a Half-Human too?”

“Good job!” She said cheerfully clapping her hands once, “Now, as for why I taste good to you, despite being a Half-Human that's because you become a dark Magic user of course, is a little more complicated...” She paused before rolling off the bed and on to her feet... “Here, follow me.”

Saber followed Sen down to the kitchen where she leaned next to a knife holder, making Shi wonder what exactly she did with those knife. She also hands human foods like bread, ham, cheese, and milk around, it must be for appearances. He determined as he looked around.

“Now then!” she said pulling him from his thoughts, “On to Dark user's biology 101.”

She's a little too nonchalant about all this... Saber thought as he sat down on a dinning chair.

“Dark users have dark armor, which means, impressive healing abilities, and besides against other Dark users but if a human is strong enough they could kill you. But what gives them this?” She asked in rhetoric. “Well, both humans and Dark users have certain types of cells known asMagic cells, though the amount is different for both. A healthy human, of both genders, normally has around between 500 and 800 Magic cells. A Dark user, on the other hand, can have between 1,000 and 5,000 Dark Magic cells.” She paused and placed herself closer to Saber, inches Away from his face.

“But what happens when the two interbreed?” She asked, one again, rhetorically, placing a pointed finger inside one that she had formed into a hole, putting a rather inappropriate image in the boy's head. “You and I, Half-Human, are made... Half human and dark users we have there blood that can pass for human, but-” she lifted Saber's shirt, revealing a pale body with random red spots, she then quickly grabbed a knife from her knife holder and slammed it against his stomach. It broke instantly, snapping in half. “-skin that can stop bullets.”

Saber hadn't had time to scream, he didn't even realize what had happened, until he saw the knife bounce off the floor and by then the fear had passed.

“But,” she continued, “like I said, only a Dark user and human can pierce the skin of another dark users naturally... if they strong enough” Sen then lightly skimmed her finger down Saber's stomach, where she stopped, just under the tiny gut Saber had poking out, it sent shivers down his spine. Then, she lightly pressed and drew blood from him, taking some red substance and licking it before making a sound of satisfaction.

“Any more questions?”

Saber, holding back a blush, simply shook his head, while he pulled his shirt back down. Sen's personality was a bit too open for his own, but somehow he liked it. He never expected her to be so... Free spirited...

“Good, because we've got some errands to run...” She said, looking at him.

“What errands, miss Ato?”

“Well, first we are stopping by your Dorm so you can get a shower, change clothes, and pack your belongings, because you're moving in,” she said as if they had planned this, when in reality she'd decided this on her own. “And then-”

“Wait, what?!” Saber asked, not quite sure he heard her right. “Moving in? Why would I move in?”

“Well... To be honest, Shi, you're a rather weak specimen.” she said, folding her arms, “And the way I see it, you have three paths from here on out: Stay with me and let me show you how to live this life, be alone and eventually die from either starvation or stay alone and cause trouble, bringing into ikebukuro, which is not good for anyone...” She told him, raising an eyebrow.

Saber gulped, “Dammit more choices okay but give me a few days I'll come back tell you my answer I need to do a few things before I do so...” He said lowly.

“Fine” She said, “Now, I'm getting in the shower.” she told him as she walked off, “Don't be peeking!” She coo'd as she disappeared into the hallway.

Saber blush at the thought walked out of her apartment headed for ikebukuro Academy to tell nxy his answer to get those people back into the office he couldn't say anything about Ato or his friends it's better that way.
