Break Day

Opening his eyes, sunlight hit Adam's eyes blinding him. Opening and closing his eyes it wasn't going until Adam's eyes were adjusted to the light. Looking over to his left Adam was surprised to see Xenovia cuddling up to his arm. He had expected to be assaulted in his sleep and for her to take advantage of him. "It doesn't really matter," Adam told himself, he could see that she was happy so he didn't have a problem.

Slightly shaking her Adam attempted to wake her up. "Hey Xenvoia, wake up," Adam spoke to her.

Slowly opening her eyes she sat up and looked at the wall absentmindedly. After a couple of seconds, her brain began working. The last thing she could remember was a strong feeling of dread crawling through her body after seeing Loki cast a powerful magical spell. She knew she wasn't going to be able to block any of it so she just laid on the ground and passed out.

Getting up she saw that she was still wearing the clothes that she used in battle.

Waiting for her to notice him, Adam patiently waited for her to say something. But after a while of her not noticing him Adam spoke up, "You should go take a bath and change clothes".

"Ahhh!" Xenovia yelled out "When did you get here? Don't tell me we slept together" she began getting excited.

"No, I just came to wake you up. There's a lot of people who are worried about you so it'd be good to contact them" Adam told her. He then walked out of her room and closed the door. "You should take the day off today and relax. It's good for you to take a break now and then" he said.

"You should take your own advice," Mikasa replied to him.

"It's different for me, my body doesn't get tired" Adam corrected her, "Anyway, aside from that, I'm glad you're fine"

"Of course I'm fine, I won't let a couple of wolves defeat me. By the way, who was the girl that was with you?" Mikasa asked, catching Adam off guard.

"She's Minamoto no Yoshitsune, she's going to be living with us and you'll probably find her next to me most of the time" Adam explained to her " well she will stay here as long as she wants to," he added.

"As in the person that's supposed to have died years ago, wasn't she supposed to have been a guy?" Mikasa asked confused.

"Well that's what I thought as well but apparently that's not the case, anyway, you can ask her for help in your training," Adam told her, "But not right now" he added just in case she went back to training.

"Then what am I supposed to do?" Mikasa asked with a distraught tone. All she had been doing for the last couple of months was train and nothing else.

"You can go out shopping with Xenovia and Ushiwakamaru to get more clothes or just enjoy a day off".

"You're coming with us then, right?"Mikasa said with pleading eyes as she had seen through Adam's plan of leaving them and going to do something by himself.

"Since the training camp should have ended yesterday then I'll go get Asia and after that, I'll go with you guys. While I'm at it I guess I'll go and sort out any issues with the Norse Gods" Adam told her and was about to teleport to the Underworld but stopped, "Go get Xenovia and Ushiwakamaru and figure out what you guys want to do, I can pay for whatever so I'll let you guys decide" he told Mikasa as he vanished from where he was.

"Ushiwakamaru? Isn't that Minamoto no Yoshitsune's childhood nickname?" Mikasa asked herself.

"Yes, that's what my Master and people close to me call me" A voice came from behind Mikasa.

"Is it fine if we call you that? I'd be awkward to speak to you formally when everyone else speaks to each other like friends," Mikasa asked Ushiwakamaru.

"Since you're all close to Master then I don't see any issue with you guys calling me that. Anyway, what is it that Master wants us to do?" she asked. She was upset that she was left behind without him saying anything but she didn't show that on her face.

"Ahh, I'll tell you when we find Xenoiva so I don't have to repeat myself twice," Mikasa told her as she walked back to Xenovia's room and walked inside.

In the Underworld, Adam teleported into the Gremory estate since it would be the easiest way to find Asia.

As soon as he landed on the ground, hundreds of magic attacks from all angles were shot. Not caring enough to block any of the attacks Adam let them all hit him. The weaker attacks were all nullified since they were weaker than his Magic Cancellation ability.

After switching clothes with something in his treasury Adam spoke from inside the clouds of dust "That was a bad idea on my part but it was the fastest way to get here so can you guys stop shooting" Adam asked them.

"Identify yourself!" someone ordered Adam.

"My name is Adam, I just came here to talk to Odin if he is still here" Ada,m told them.

Grayfia who was the first to respond to the intruder was surprised to hear the person's name. Sirzechs was telling her about how he needed to talk to Adam about what happened with Loki. "You can all go back, it was a false alarm" Grayfia ordered the rest of the servants that had attacked Adam with her.

"My name is Grayfia, I am a maid of the Gremory household, it's an honor to meet you. Lord Lucifer has been waiting for you, please follow me," she said hoping Adam would follow her.

"Lead the way," Adam said as he followed behind.

"As part of the Gremory household I'd like to thank you for being friends with Lady Rias, and for all of the help you've been giving her and her peerage the last couple of months," she sincerely thanked Adam. She hadn't been able to thank him for getting her out of a marriage with someone she didn't want to be in.

Adam didn't say anything and just followed her. He was surprised by how strong she was, in terms of magical power she wasn't that far from the 4 Satans.

"We're here, Lord Lucifer should be in here with the Governor-General and Lord Odin," she said as she bowed down to the side of the door signaling for him to go inside.

"Can you tell Rias that I'm here to pick up Asia if they are done with their training?" Adam asked her.

"Of course," she said to him without moving.

The first one to see Adam was Azazel, who was surprised to see Adam back in the Underworld. "Adam? I didn't expect you to come back" he told him.

"I just came here to inform you of the events that took place after I left," Adam said. He then began explaining what happened with Loki and the reason he attacked them in the first place. Finishing off Adam told them, "I don't regret killing him, he was a threat that had to be dealt with".

"It's fine while it is unfortunate we lost him. It's also time we move on from how everything used to work," Odin said with reminiscent eyes.

"I wish the other Gods could think the same," Adam told them.

"Adam is there a reason you went to talk with Riser from the Phenex family," Sirzechs asked Adam. One of his Servants told him that Adam was seen knocking on the Phenex family's sleeping residence before the meeting even took place.

"I just went there to check up on Riser and Ravel. It seemed they were fine so I had some tea with Ravel while I waited for Azazel to contact me but he didn't so I ended up leaving" Adam lied to them without hesitation.

"I'll let you figure out whatever you're talking about, I need to head back to Asgard and try and keep the damage to a minimum," Odin said to them and teleported himself out of the Underworld.

"Why are you still here, miss?" Adam asked since he didn't expect Odin to leave one of his Valkyries in the Underworld.

"Um- I- um I can't get back to Asgard without Lord Odin's help since it's separated from the human world," the woman with gray hair said as tears began to build up in her eyes and threaten to fall.

"Well that's unfortunate, anyway I'll be on my way. I have people waiting for me," Adam said trying to escape any responsibilities.

"Now there's no need to be in such a hurry Adam, you can still take one more person with you," Azazel said with a smile on his face as he gripped Adam's shoulder. He could already tell how much of a pain it would be to deal with the woman that was there. Odin probably left her with them for a reason and it wasn't his problem to figure out what she was meant to do.

"Please let go of me old man," Adam said respectfully with a smile on his face. He and Azazel stared each other down until Adam eventually gave up. "You know what, she can come with me if she wants" he honestly didn't want to bring another girl into his house but he could tell how talented the woman in front of him was with magic.

"You heard him Rossweisse go ahead and follow him," Azazel said with a face that looked like it had just gotten rid of something annoying.

Rossweisse shyly walked up to Adam "My name is Rossweisse I am one of Lord Odin's Valkyries" she presented herself.

"Was" Azazel whispered to himself, making him laugh in silence.

"Nice to meet you, My name is Adam Lochner. You can just call me Adam" he introduced himself.

With nothing else to do Adam headed to the exit of the mansion as he looked for Asia. He knew that Rossweisse felt awkward, so he spoke up "You can stay with us as long as you want but in return could I ask for something" he asked.

"It's only natural to give something in return so what can I help you with?" she replied with a professional tone but her imagination was running wild with all the possible requests she would get.

Seeing that she would consider his request Adam asked, "Could you help some people with their magic and their training? Since you were a God's bodyguard then you must be an extraordinary fighter"

"Training? Is that it? There's nothing else you want?" She was a bit disappointed by his request.

"That's all I need in return," he confirmed.

After another quiet walk, they arrived at the entrance where Asia and everyone else was.

Being the first one to see Adam. with a barely visible smile on her face she quietly called out his name "Adam" she said.

"Are you here to pick up Asia?" Rias asked since she could see Adam was in a hurry.

Walking up to Asia he grabbed her by the hand "Yeah, I'm sure you guys are done with your training, so it shouldn't be a problem" he then pulled her towards Rossweisse's direction, and before anyone could say anything he teleported.

"Alright Asia, go meet up with the girls and they'll tell you what we're doing today"

"Alright, and what are you going to do Adam?" she asked him.

"I guess I'll show our guest around the house," Adam said with a sarcastic tone.

Thinking she was being a bother, Rossweisse apologized to Adam." Sorry for being a bother".

After comforting Rossweisse and letting her know she' welcome to stay at the house for as long as she needs to, Asia left Rossweisse and Adam and headed to where the three other girls were.

Shyly walking up to Adam who was standing still waiting for her she was caught off guard by Adam talking to her.

"It's not a bother, the house is just empty so there isn't much to show but I can at least guide you," he said smiling at her.

"Ah, is that so? Then I'm sorry for overreacting" she replied to him.

After getting over their small miscommunication Adam guided her through the empty rooms that were scattered throughout the house. At the end of his tour, he stopped at the beginning of the hallway where rooms were being used.

"You can choose any room you want but I'd be lonely to be by yourself so I would recommend a room in this hallway" he explained to her.

She was hesitant to choose a room since she didn't quite trust the kid in front of her.

Noticing the hesitance in her eyes Adam could already guess what she was thinking. "You don't have to worry about me. You'll barely see me outside of my room" he explained to her. He too would be cautious if he was staying in a house with people he didn't know.

Choosing the room furthest from where everyone was but still in the same hallway she walked in leaving Adam by himself in the hallway.

Wondering what to do while he waited Adam decided on painting a new work since it had been a while since he made a new painting. Going into his room he took out a new Canvas and all the paint he would need.

He didn't know what he wanted to paint yet his hands moved by themself and began painting. Going along with it Adam focused on what he was going to paint.

Mikasa, Asia, Xenovia, Ushiwakamaru, and Rossweisse, who borrowed clothes from Xenovia, were done with their preparations and were waiting for Adam outside of his room.

"Should we just walk in?" Asia asked.

"It should be fine," Mikasa replied.

Opening the door they saw Adam sitting on a chair with a canvas in front of him.

"Is that a self-portrait?" Xenovia asked.

The painting was of a man chained in place by golden chains but what had the girls confused was that the person in the chains bore a striking resemblance to Adam making it seem like he was painting a self-portrait.

Placing his brush back into his container Adam turned to face the group. "Sorry for the wait, I got caught up in trying to finish this drawing" he explained to them but he himself didn't know why he was so focused on it. Looking back at the painting, the man's smile still made him feel uncomfortable.

Not giving them a chance to look at the painting any longer he tossed it into his treasury.

Switching his clothes, he led the girls out of his room into the living room. "Alright, where are we going first" he energetically asked them.

"So first we're going to go shopping since the weather is going to be getting colder. Then we'll be going to an amusement park after we're done with that, there is an Idol group that Asia has been watching recently and they're having a performance in their school in Tokyo. So that's the plan for today, and we can add more stuff if we need to, `` Mikasa explained to him.

"New clothes? Couldn't I just make some for you....." Adam asked but became quiet as he began getting an angry stare from Mikasa "Shopping sounds fun let's go" he quickly corrected himself.

"Are we going to teleport there?" Adam asked them.

"I was thinking we rent a car and have Ms. Rossweisse drive us there" Mikasa replied to him.

Shaking his head, Adam instead took out his phone and called someone. Not even a second after dialing the number, someone answered and Adam swiftly told them what he needed.

"Who was that?" Xenovia asked

"It was my secretary, I asked her to call the chauffeur for me. He should be here soon" Adam told them. Staring to walk to the exit Adam turned back to them "Come on, he's good at his job so we won't have to wait long" is what he told them. But in reality, he had multiple chauffeurs in different locations in case he ever needed to go somewhere without teleporting.

Going outside everyone could see a white and gold limousine in the parking lot of the mansion.

'Doesn't that stand out too much?' Everyone, besides Adam, thought to themselves.

"Thank you for coming, William," Adam said to the old man that was in the driver's seat.

"It's no problem for me, I always have my stuff ready in case I get called" he replied to Adam with an amicable smile on his face. "Now where am I driving you today Boss?" he asked.

"Here's the location of the places we're going, sorry for the trouble," Mikasa said to the old man apologetically. She never knew Adam had a chauffeur on standby.

"Oh, there's no need to apologize. I get paid even when I'm not working. It makes an old man like me feel useless if I get paid without doing anything" he said to the group.

"Alright, then I won't bother you with any more apologies," she said feeling better since she wasn't bothering the old man.

Adam opened the door for the girls to get in and waited for everyone to enter and then entered himself.

Everyone was baffled by how luxurious the limousine was from the inside.

"We live in a mansion, why are you guys acting weird now?" Adam asked.

"It's different," Xenovia told him " The mansion feels like a normal house since there aren't any maids or butlers running around. This makes us feel out of place" she explained how everyone was feeling. The ones who stayed in the Gremory Residence felt the same as they did there.

Not saying anything else since he couldn't understand what she meant, Adam let them do as they pleased and signaled for William to start driving.

Leaving Fuyuki City, they headed to the largest shopping mall near them. The more time they spent inside the limousine the less awkward it felt for everyone and before anyone noticed they were singing along to songs through a built-in karaoke system.

As everyone's turn passed it wasn't long before it came down to only Adam as the only one who had yet to sing.

Excited to hear how Adam would sound, Xenovia handed the microphone to Adam."It's your turn" she said with a smug smile on her face. She was able to tell Adam was avoiding singing.

But before she could say anything she heard a voice coming from the front.

"We have arrived," William said to them.

"I guess you'll have to wait until later," Adam said to her.

"Tch" Xenovia clicked her tongue in disapproval. "How is it that everything is always timed perfectly for Adam?" she complained to the rest.

"I guess I'm just lucky," Adam replied to her.

"Stupid luck" she unforgivingly said.

Everyone else just laughed at her as they exited the limousine.

In the parking lot, there were already people who were surrounding the limousine in hopes that they would catch a glimpse of someone famous only to be disappointed when the girls exited.

The crowd quickly dispersed but there were still people, mainly men, who were still observing the girls that walked out of the vehicle.

One brave soul decided he would try his luck and approached the girls but the meager confidence he had quickly disappeared when Adam stepped out of the limousine. At that point, all the other men who were still there were slowly losing any of their confidence.

With the minuscule amount of confidence, the guy still had, he asked the group a question. "Are any of you ladies single?" he said with a weak smile.

"No" they all, besides Rossweisse who was too embarrassed to answer, simultaneously answered and looked at Adam.

"I have a girlfriend" Adam answered, destroying any hope that the girls who were ogling him from a distance had.

"Can you all move out the way? We have stuff to do," Adam ordered the guys who were still there.

Surprising everyone, even the guys he ordered, they all moved out of their way.

Making their way through the space that had opened up Xenvoia screamed out "Woah, what was that? Why did they move? Did you use mind control?" she asked questions like an excited child.

"I don't know either, maybe they were scared?" Adam said.

Everyone then began wondering if Adam seemed scary.

Adam didn't think his remark would make them go into deep thought so he brought them back to what they were doing "What do you all plan on buying?"

Working everyone's thoughts changed into what they wanted to buy today.

As if he had just opened up pandora's box, Adam was dragged to the woman lingerie section.

Inside Adam could see a blue-haired girl happily looking at the bras.

"Alright, what color and design do you like the most?" Xenovia asked with a serious look on her face.

The rest of the girl's faces all turned serious as they awaited his answer patiently.

Knowing that he had to answer them he looked around searching for anything that he could choose. "Then how about that white one right there?" he said pointing at the white-colored lingerie.

The girls all took off in the direction of where he had pointed.

"You can get whatever you want as well Rossweisse, I doubt you have anything with you," Adam said, encouraging her to get something.

"But I don't have any money," she said ashamed.

"It's fine, I'll pay for whatever you get," he said to her but could see that she wasn't convinced. "Then how about you pay me back some other time?" he said in an attempt to trick her.

"If it's like that then I guess I'll go get something," she said while under the assumption she would have to pay him back some way or another. Without anything holding her back she began searching for all the stuff she needed.

Without any else to do Adam looked around the room and made eye contact with the other person who was in the store. The person who was inside a dog costume quickly looked away after making eye contact.

Finding the person's behavior weird, Adam walked up to them to get a better understanding of them.

"Hey man, are you the only worker here?" he asked them.

"Um, Yes," the person said with a clearly pitched up voice as they glanced over to the girl with blue hair.

Getting all the information he needed, Adam concluded the guy inside the suit was completely harmless.

He was then dragged by the girls so that they could ask whether or not he liked the lingerie and underwear they had chosen.

After a while, they had a large number of items gathered up at the register.

The woman, who had arrived not that long ago, was waiting for the kids to choose what they were going to buy but was instead astonished by the astronomical amount of items that they were purchasing, and after scanning the last item she told them their total. "It'll be 110,341.20 yen," she said the price.

"Alright," Adam said and swiped his card. A couple of tense seconds later, a 'Transaction Approved' message was shown on the screen surprising the woman and Rossweisse.

"Do you need your receipt dear customer?" the woman said with a completely new attitude.

"No thank you, ma'am" Mikasa replied to her.

"Then let us help you bring this to your car, hey Yuiga, come over here now" she ordered the person in the costume.

Hearing the name, the girl who was happily shopping for her stuff was now surrounded by a dark atmosphere.

"Yes ma'am" the voice of a guy came from the costume.

"That's not necessary, we can carry it ourselves" Adam tried to go against the woman.

"Now how could I let our dear customers carry so many bags" the woman spoke in a respectful tone.

Looking for help with the woman's passion, Adam looked at the girls only to find them just as a loss for words as he was. With no way of declining her, Adam spoke again. "There should be a limousine in the parking lot, show the driver this and you there should be space for it," he said, taking out an emblem from his pocket and handing it over to the woman.

'What the hell?! Is this thing real gold' the woman screamed in her mind whilst showing no change in her facial expression.

Leaving the bags up to them, the group made their way to the rest of the stores.

Back at the store, the guy and the woman, along with the girl were in awe by the emblem that was in their possession.

"Hey Yuiga, do you know what this thing is supposed to mean?" the woman asked.

"Uhh, I'm not quite so sure either but I've seen that symbol before" Yuiga answered her.

"Well that doesn't matter, now go and leave these bags," she ordered him.

"Fine," he said and grabbed the emblem, and headed to the parking lot.

Adam continued shopping with the girls as they made their way through the mall. He ignored all the envy-filled glares he received and kept encouraging the girls to get what they wanted. They even went inside a home decoration store and bought anything that would make the mansion feel less empty.

"Alright, it's still early, so we can still make it to the amusement park, and still have time for the performance," Asia told the group.

"I'm sure we all got everything we needed," Mikasa said, speaking for the group.

"Then let's head back to the limo and be on our way" Adam decided.

Word of Adam and his group leaving the shopping mall quickly spread leaving the owner of the shops he didn't visit disappointed.

Once they were back at the limousine they placed all their bags in the storage compartments.

"Are we off to the Amusement Park now Boss?" William asked for confirmation.

"Yes," Adam replied to him.

Without needing anything else he took off towards the Amusement Park.

The drive to the amusement park wasn't long so there wasn't any time to make Adam sing anything.

"We have arrived," Announced William.

"Alright, I'll go buy the tickets for us" Adam volunteered to go but was stopped by everyone.

"If we were to let you go by yourself you'll most definitely come back with a different girl or crowds of them flocking over you" Mikasa shot down his offer immediately.

"Exactly, we're keeping you safe from all those girls who would eat you up in seconds," Xenovia said, confusing Adam.

"I'm being protected? Haaaa I've heard it all now" he said while smiling. Making most of the girls near them stop in their tracks.

"Keep it moving" Ushiwakamaru barked at the girls who were staring at her Master like a meal.

The girls all hesitantly kept walking.

"See?!" Xenovia said using what happened as an example.

"Right, Right" Adam calmed her down while accepting their argument as a valid concern for them.

"Don't worry Boss, I'll buy the tickets for you" William volunteered since he was feeling bad for his boss.

"Thank you, William" Adam told him with a wry smile.

"By the way, where is the idol performance taking place?" Adam asked. He knew Idols were popular in japan but he never heard any of their music since it never interested him.

"It's going to be in their school's auditorium" Asia answered him. She found this group's reason for becoming school Idols really inspiring.

"I hope they let us in," Adam said. He wasn't sure they'd let anyone enter a school. Leaving those thoughts in the back of his head since he could see William coming back with tickets.

"Here you go Boss," he said handing the tickets to Adam.

"Thank you, William," Adam replied to him.

"Let's get going then," Adam told the girls as he began walking towards the entrance.

The girls quickly ran after him leaving William in the Parking Lot by himself.

Once inside the large amusement park, Adam was quite surprised by the number of rides there were. "Which attraction should we go to first ?" he asked but he found himself being dragged to the haunted house.

Looking at it he could tell none of the girls would even be bothered by any of the jumpscares inside of it so he was about to ask them if they were sure they wanted to go into it but he saw that they were all excited for it so he kept his thoughts to himself.

The person overseeing the ride was having a bad day so he was quite glad to see so many beautiful girls lining up at the same time.

"Only two at a time," he told them. "Who's going to go first?" he asked them. He was fine with having a conversation with any of them so It didn't matter to him who went first.

"I'll go with Adam first and then he'll come back and take all of you. Is that fine with everyone?" Mikasa asked all of them.

They all begrudgingly accepted her proposal since they knew there was a massive gap in their positions.

"Don't make those faces, you'll get to have him as well" she reminded them instantly rejuvenating their attitudes.

Shaking his head at their behavior Adam grabbed Mikasa's hand and walked into the building.

Once Adam was inside the guy got close to the girls "So how are you beautiful ladies doing this evening" he tried making small talk with them.

Getting no answer from them he got closer to them. "Are those two a couple, it sucks for us single people huh? haha" he laughed hoping they would laugh with them.

"Hey, can you stop bothering us?" Xenovia asked the guy.

Taking the hint that they weren't in a mood to talk with him he backed off and accepted defeat. But that didn't stop him from feasting on the girls' bodies with his eyes.

"I'll go pluck that pig's eyes," Ushiwakamaru said without any hesitance.

"You guys are fine" A voice to their left said to them.

Adam was coming back from the exit with a visible kiss mark on his face.

"Let's go," he said as he pulled on Ushiwakamaru's hand.

She didn't resist at all and walked away with him.

Before going into the ride Adam made eye contact with the guy and stared into his eyes wondering whether or not to give the guy enough bad luck to last him for the rest of his life. Deciding it wasn't necessary, he continued with Ushiwakamaru next to him.

The entire time Ushiwakamaru happily went through the dark hallways at the end of it she kissed Adam on the other cheek since she thought that's what she had to do.

Being caught off guard, Adam was left standing at the exit. Exhaling out his breath he now knew he had to either let the other girls do the same or he could try and lie to them but knowing it would be fruitless to do so he went back to the entrance.

Seeing Adam walking back to them Xenovia noticed another mark on his face and knew who it was from. "So we're all getting turns?" she said excitedly.

"Sure, why not?" Adam said in a defeated tone.

"Alright, Ms. Rossweisse you can go first, I'll wait until the last turn," she said with a mischievous look on her face.

Extending his hand for her to take it she quickly grasped it. Walking into the dark hallways he was surprised that she was acting like a regular girl. 'A Valkyrie out of all people' Adam laughed in his head as they passed all the gimmicks made to scare people that for some reason all seemed to work on Rossweisse.

At the end of the place he could tell she was uncomfortable doing the same things as the other two so to not leave her out he patted her head.

Surprised by the sudden hand on her head she was about to back off but instead felt comforted by it. 'How could the hand of a kid make me feel so safe' she thought to herself.

"And that's enough" Mikasa interrupted her thoughts by dragging her away. "Go with Xenovia quickly and you better make sure she doesn't do anything" Mikasa sternly warned him.

Believing that Xenovia wouldn't do anything like that he made his way back to the entrance where she was waiting for him.

Seeing Adam making his way towards her she didn't want to wait any longer so she ran in his direction and grabbed his hand, dragging him into the attraction.

Making their way through it, she was close as she could get to him.

"Hey Adam?" she asked.

"Yeah?" he questioned back.

"Why do you refuse me?" she asked.

He could tell she had been holding that question back for a while. He obviously knew how she and Asia felt about him. There were many excused running through his head, besides the obvious answer that it's because it wasn't normal to have more than one partner, but in the end, he knew that's all they were, 'excuses', nothing more than running away from the responsibility he knew would exist as soon as he decided to get involved with the girls' lives.

"You really put me on the spot huh?" he tried laughing it off but could see her face was still as serious as it was before. Knowing there wasn't any way to run from what he caused himself he turned towards her. "If you still think the same way after seeing what I'll show you then you can talk to me," he said as he kept walking towards the exit.

Mikasa and everyone else was waiting for them to come out but when they did everyone could feel the tense atmosphere around them. Only looking at Adam with a confused look on her face she was going to ask him what happened but instead, Adam spoke up.

"I'll share with you guys a small amount of my past so follow me," he said, walking towards the Ferris wheel that was big enough to fit six people without any problem.

Once inside the ride, he set up a barrier around them so that no one would be able to see or hear anything coming from their booth.

Without giving them any warning they were standing inside a white room where there was a single bed with tons of paintings laying in the room. On the bed, there was a small child with a brush in his hands painting another masterpiece that could probably sell for millions. Finishing with it, the boy tossed it to the side and picked up another canvas getting ready to make another one as he was told.

"That's enough for today" a voice came from behind a door that slid open.

Not saying anything the boy was about to continue with the painting he was going to make only to be stopped by a kick to his side sending him tumbling towards the wall. Only to be continuously pummeled by more kicks. "Can't you be a normal fucking person? It's impossible to run any test on a useless tool like you. We've been doing this for years and we can't get anything out of you. Do you have any idea how much I'm pressured by the executives to get some results? AHHHHHHHH!" the scientist let out all of his frustration on the boy.

The only thing the boy could do was endure everything as this was the only thing he knew. He would do whatever he was told without fighting back.

The girls continued to watch the boy get beaten every single day by the same person. Until one day the scientist came and started his daily activities "You and your mother are so useless. We looked at every last piece of that whore and couldn't find anything" he continued to curse only to stop when he looked at the face of the boy. It was the first time he'd seen anything like it, that was one hundred percent pure rage on his face.

Thinking about what he said that could've made him react like that he looked at him and was about to try and say it again but panicked when he saw that the boy was running at him with a broken brush in his hand. He tried running out of the room to tell the other staff about his find but stopped in his tracks and looked down to where he felt a weird sensation, only to find a brush piercing him.

Taking out the gun he had shot at the boy multiple times each bullet piercing a different part of his body the only part where he didn't shoot was his head where they had yet to experiment on in case it turned out that the boy could actually die.

As he began to flicker in and out of consciousness, he knew he was about to die and decided that he didn't care if the piece of shit standing in front of him died or not. Using his last bullet and the last of his strength he shot him in between his eyes. Seeing the body of the boy collapse he could see believed he had won but the last thing he saw before his consciousness faded into eternal darkness was the body of the boy standing back up 'Fuck' is the last thing he thought.

Getting up the boy stood over the man. With an unfazed look on his face, he grabbed the body and dragged it to the door, and went back to his bed grabbing a new brush, and continuing with his painting.

"What are you doing?! Get the hell out of here!" Mikasa yelled at the boy. The other girls continued screaming at him but nothing changed, not the look on his face nor the situation.

The girls were used to seeing someone who's confident, strong, and someone that controls what happens to him.

"There's no point" Adam appeared next to them "There's nothing out there for him, to anyone who has never been in this room. Adam doesn't exist and never did. They never even called me by name, The only reason I know it is because I managed to find it in the deepest part of my memories. If he were to ever leave from here then what? He would forever be on the run and be hunted down. The only option he had was to stay here and hope someday he would be let go".

"Couldn't you just kill them all and escape?" Mikasa asked in tears.

"I could've, but then I would just live the rest of my life in hiding. If these people couldn't keep me to themselves then they would have made my existence public. Having to deal with people chasing after me forever. Even with how I looked I too wanted someone to share my experiences, but I knew that I would just be putting random people in danger if I were to ever do that." he explained to them.

"Even now, anyone near me is in danger, even with the best luck in the universe I can't stop events from unfolding. I can change the outcome but I realized that the laws of the Universe are trying their best to get rid of me. I was never meant to do any of the things that I have done, but everything seems to be coming towards me in an attempt to delete me. I'd rather not pull anyone else into a mess that my existence made. If anything were to happen to anyone I love and I was the reason behind it, I would find a way to get rid of myself" Adam told them.

They were all shocked to hear that coming from him. Has he always been thinking like this? It all made sense. Mikasa could now tell why he never went out of his way to make friends. He talked to everyone but that was just him putting on a persona to fit in and be normal.

"That doesn't matter to me!" Xenovia yelled at him. "I knew from the beginning that there was death surrounding you and if I were to stay with you my death would be sealed from then on," she said with rare tears coming down from her face.

"If it ever came down to it I would gladly die for you Master" Ushiwakamaru reassured him.

"I will forever be by your side even while knowing I can die anytime. You saved me from a destiny that thinking of it would make me want to die" Mikasa said to him.

"We all think the same Adam" Asia spoke to him, "We care for you with everything we have and will forever be by your side even if we were to pass away" she spoke to him while smiling and crying.

"Thank You," Adam told them as he turned away from them and walked towards the boy who was still painting. "You hear that? It seems you'll find what you're looking for in the future, maybe even a little too much" Adam spoke to his younger version and chuckled at the end. He was feeling incredibly blessed at the moment. 'It seems it was all worth it,' he thought to himself as a couple of tears of joy swam down his cheek.

"I'll help you with whatever I can as well," Rossweisse said to him since she thought Adam was a nice person.

"I appreciate it," he said while looking her way.

Everyone suddenly felt a pull on their bodies and they were once again at the top of the Ferris wheel. Only a couple of seconds had gone by since they were pulled into Adam's memories.

"The last thing I'll say is that I want you all to promise me something," Adam said, getting everyone's attention " If I am to ever disappear please don't look for me, just know that I will come back no matter what. Can you all promise me that," he told them with pleading eyes.

Biting her lip Mikasa agreed, she didn't know what he meant but being the only serious request he had ever made they begrudgingly accepted.

"Does this mean we're dating you?" Asia asked, making everyone else quiet.

"What? No" Adam quickly responded to her but regretted it when he saw a fist flying towards him. "I'm joking," he raised his hands, surrendering "Only if you want to date me, obviously after getting Mikasa's permission, " he said.

"Hmph, I was ready for this moment the day I decided that I would spend the rest of my life following you" she replied angrily but on the inside, she was happy for her friends even if she was still jealous.

"I'm sorry" Adam apologized to her. He never thought he would actually accept having more than one partner.

"Yeah yeah, stay over you playboy, womanizer, player" she just kept going with insults bashing Adam until they reached the bottom of the Ferris Wheel. "But I already decided to stay with you forever so it doesn't matter what you are," she said while exhaling.

"I'm glad" Adam replied, he knew he was guilty so he did not attempt to defend himself.

Getting off the ride, Adam felt a sense of weightlessness, he was sure it was the feeling of getting something off your chest.

Not getting a chance to inspect his feelings any further he was attacked by Xenovia who lunged at him connecting her lips to his. She continued to suck on his lips and even placed her tongue inside his mouth intertwining with Adam's tongue. After a minute she finally let go of him with a string of saliva still connecting them.

Breathing heavily Adam couldn't believe what just happened. He really was caught off guard.

"She really did it," Mikasa, the only one who wasn't surprised, said. She then walked up to Xenovia, who had an anger-inducing look on her face, and pulled her by the ear in the direction of the limousine. Mikasa was ready for her next sparring session with her.

Seeing his boss, who had a look of loss on his face, and the other girls walking towards him, he felt the atmosphere around them felt nicer than it did before. Ignoring Adam, everyone else looked happy.

"William please take us to our last destination," Mikasa told him once everyone else was inside.

"No problem ma'am" he started the limo and began to drive off.

Everyone decided to take a small nap before they arrived at their destination. After making sure everyone else was sleeping Adam got out of the arms that were clinging on to him.

"How was your day Boss?" William asked since he had a feeling his Boss wouldn't be asleep.

"It was a nice day, maybe filled with too many surprises but it was worth it. I was finally able to move forwards" he told him.

"That's good to hear Boss," William said genuinely happy for his Boss.

Leaning back on the seat Adam was finally able to relax without having things piled on him.

After a while of the car ride, they arrived at the school where the performance was supposed to take place.

Waking everyone up Adam stepped out of the limousine only to be stared at by dozens of girls. "Hello" he waved at them with the friendliest smile possible so none of them would panic. Instead, they all blushed at the same time.

"Oh look, he's already cheating" Xenovia sarcastically said.

"That's pretty fast" Mikasa followed her joke.

"Can we just go to where we need to be?" Adam said not quite fond of being made fun of.

Asia walked up to one of the students and asked them where the show was happening and found out that it was relocated to the roof of the school.

"Are we allowed to walk in there?" Asia asked the girl.

"As long as you don't get caught somewhere you're not supposed to be at," she told Asia while not even trying to hide her glances towards Adam.

Getting in between her and Adam Asia thanked her for help. She then relayed the information to Adam and the group.

"They must be really desperate to have their performance on the roof when it's about to rain," Adam told them.

"It should be fine as long as Adam doesn't do anything to stand out," Mikasa said, she then looked at Adam's face and then began to think of solutions.

"Don't treat my face as a problem" Adam complained "We'll be fine as long as I don't stand out right? Then all I have to do is act casual," he told them. Besides teleporting, all he could do was walk in normally.

They proceeded to walk up to the rooftop where there were already other students waiting in front of a stage. Facing away from them to not cause any Issues, Adam was left to stare at the dark sky. Ending the day with rain didn't sit right with him so he decided to change it. He went to where no one could see him and teleported in the air. Levitating, he looked around, and before anyone could notice him in the air he unsealed his mana. The shockwave was strong enough to push any clouds that were in the sky into separate locations making it so that it would rain another day. Quickly teleporting back and sealing his mana Adam was disoriented for a second due to him unsealing and sealing his mana so quickly. Once he came back to the roof the first thing that went through his head was 'Are you serious?' The Idol group that was about to perform was staring directly at him.

"I seem to be lost" Adam tried playing it off. He couldn't erase their memories without affecting all the students who were near the school.

"Am I imagining things or did this person just appear out of thin air" a girl with short brown hair questioned. "Wait where did he go?" she asked as she looked back where the guy was before but couldn't find anyone there.

"There was definitely a suspicious-looking guy here just now," another girl with black twin tails said, supporting the other girl.

"We can't be worried about that now, the sky somehow cleared up so this is a perfect opportunity" another girl with a blonde ponytail got everyone else's attention.

The group got on stage and began performing their song.

"Where'd you go, Adam?" Xenovia questioned him.

"I fixed the weather" he replied to her, removing any suspicion she had of him.

"They're starting" Asia excitedly told them.

The group began singing and dancing along with the song.

Adam was listening and watching the group perform so that he'd be able to understand why it was so popular. He found it dancing to be nicely choreographed and the music was also nicely written. After they were done performing he could now understand why it was so popular.

Now that everyone was happy Adam wanted to leave before those girls caught sight of him and as he was urging the other girls he was caught by the girl with black twin tails.

"Ah he's right there," she told her friends.

Now that he was already seen, Adam attempted to escape, "I'll meet you guys down in the limo" he said as he jumped over the fence falling off the building.

"Why is he in such a rush?" Asia questioned.

"It probably has something to do with those girls right there," Mikasa pointed at the group coming in their direction.

"Honoka, did he just vault off the building?" she asked for confirmation. Getting no answer from her she then turned to face the group of girls who were with that guy.

"Have you seen a suspicious-looking guy who teleports" she absurdly asked.

The girls finally understood why he was in such a hurry, he messed up and didn't know how to fix it.

"Teleporting? You must be tired from performing, see your friend is pretty tired" Mikasa said while pointing at the brown-haired girl who looked like she was about to pass out.

Seeing her in need of help, Asia ran up to her "I'm a really big fan of µ's" she said, extending her hand out for a handshake.

"Ah ah really?" she said as she gasped for air but she still shook her hand regardless. She then realized she was starting to feel better but didn't know how exactly it happened. Catching her breath she asked where they were from and found out that they came from pretty far away to watch their performance. They also found out that they indeed have a friend who was still waiting in his limousine in the parking lot.

"Won't you guys come and meet him? He's a big fan you know" Xenovia told them.

"We can spare a bit of time for a fan," Nico told them

Once they were downstairs in the parking lot the girls were awed by how luxurious the limousine looked.

"Why don't you come and greet the idols you were looking forward to meeting Adam?" Mikasa told Adam who was in the limousine wondering why the girls were being evil towards him.

Coming out of the limousine he could hear them saying 'it's him.'

"Hello, My name is Adam Lochner" Adam introduced himself in English.

"We have overseas fans, isn't that great Honoka?" a girl with grayish hair said.

"No Kotori, this is the same guy as before," Nico told her.

"Important meeting," Adam said as he pointed at his wrist where a brand new watch that wasn't there earlier appeared. "Sayonara," he said with a foreign accent.

His performance was so good that it made everyone question whether or not they found the right guy.

"Thank you for saying hi to him" Asia bowed to them.

"It's no problem," the entire group told them.

Once everyone else was inside the limousine they heard the same voice they had heard earlier say "Take us back home".

"Hey it was him, how did we even get fooled?" she said as she threw a small tantrum.

They let her continue complaining about how they should go after them but everyone else was already exhausted.

In the limousine Adam had a smile stuck on his face, he didn't have to worry about seeing those girls ever again so he could relax.
