(Winchester Residence)

(Leon POV)

"...Soo tired," I said tiredly trying to move "Come on Leon it's rude to keep a girl like Ayumu waiting," Mom said, "WHAT AYU IS HERE?!" I yelled shocked expression "Yeah she is downstairs talking to Leonidas," Mom said "...Ughhh I will be right down man such a busy week" I said sweatdrop trying to get change "Hehe...reminds me when you were younger" Mom said, "What you're talking about??" I asked confused "When you got so quick to wake up because of Ayu was waiting," Mom said sweatdrop "THAT WAS WHEN I WAS 8!" I yelled, "Yet you still do," Mom said, "I heard about you being the manager of the Nijigasaki High Idol Club," Mom said "...I can explain" I said "No it's okay Leon as long your doing something to get your mind off from the past," Mom said ruffled my hair as I sweatdrop...

(Downstairs)

"I'm so sorry Ayu!!" I yelled bowing repeatly "I-It's okay Leo! I know you were having a rough morning" Ayumu said nervously chuckled "It's today our first day of the official club restart," I said nervously "I know what you mean" Ayumu said smiled "MUNCH! COUGH! MUNCH" I yelled eating rapidly the cereal...

"L-Leon calm down we still got plenty of time before school," Ayumu said smiled "Be careful you two on the way to school there's construction going on," Mom said went off to work "You got it, Mom," I said smiled "Yu will be having class duty today," Ayumu said "Alright kinda sucks was hoping to ask her about something," I said sweatdrop "What's that?" Ayumu asked confused both preparing to head off school "Eh something with my good old outfit that I wear when I was younger kinda need to redo" I said sweatdrop "That outfit looks very familiar let me take look at it..." Ayumu asked confused "Say weren't you one of those Rescuers?" Ayumu asked "Ahgh?" I asked eyes widened wide heart beating as it hurts like crap...

"Leon??" Ayumu asked, "I-It's okay I'm alright just been overworking little planning and rehearsing on what to say," I said "...Come on let's head on to school okay" Ayumu said concerned expression "I'll help you walk" Ayumu said smiled "Right" I said sweatdrop both walking down...

(Nijigasaki High)

Classes were such boredom...I wanna fall asleep but I have to keep my grades high till at least hopefully I won't fail... Oh look at that I keep phasing out especially when I got into close quarters with Sebastian and his Reaper buddies...

"...Man my heart hurts especially when people just now realizing what happened over at Lakeway in America..." I said sighed eyes closed "Leon it's okay relax that stuff is in the past especially we got better now and people are well wondering where is the Starlight Sentinel..." Leonidas said looking at the photo "He's about to make comeback once I get someone to fixed the outfit..." I muttered, "Why Yu though?" Leonidas asked "Cause Yu knows how to sew and really good at it," I said "Rough morning Leo?" Ayumu asked, "Oh hey Ayu," I said smiled trying to get ready for lunch "I decide to check on you because of how easily you're almost falling asleep lately especially during the train ride to school," Ayumu said nervously giggled "Oh yeah I'm alright just yah know it was the very amazing lecture," I said smiled "Really? I could see your drool from the corner of your mouth" Ayumu said sweatdrop "Corner of my...ah crapbaskets!" I yelled embarrassed "So you were sleeping in class today," Ayumu said nervously "Yes...I was but eh I will get notes from someone else later though kinda hungry for some lunch right now" I said "Same come on" Ayumu said smiled both left the classroom...

(Lunch Room)

"Uhhh," I said annoyed looking at the line "...Sorry, Leon I kinda ate yours since you did say taking lunch line today" Leonidas said burped... "...COME ONNNN!!" I quietly yelled in annoyance "Hmm if your hungry then I can help you out" Ayumu said smiled "What you got to cause the line looks a bit too long..." I said bored expression "Well I did ask my mom what to make," Ayumu said "That's cool your lunches always look colorful and delicious...Plus you put a lot of thought into your cooking" I said smiled "N-Not really...I'm clumsy, so I always end up cutting the vegetables into weird shapes" Ayumu said "Ah come on nothing wrong with cut vegetables it looks unique" I said smiled "Ugh the rolled eggs are burnt..." Ayumu said sighed "Rolled eggs???" I asked confused (VEGETABLES??! BURNT ROLLED EGGS?! YUCK!) Leonidas thought I wack his side of the head...

"OW!" Leonidas yelled "Leonidas since your so kind enough to speak how about you try Ayu vegetables!" I yelled smiled "Fine...." Leonidas said red face "Here you go Leonidas," Ayumu said smiled "...Wow, this isn't that bad" Leonidas said "Alright your turn" Ayumu said "WHA?!" I yelled flinched "Come on don't be so shy Leonidas did it," Ayumu said slowly smiled "...Uhhh" I said nervously chuckled "Alright..." I said sweatdrop "This sure reminds me back when we were younger," Ayumu said smiled "Hm??" I asked confused "When you were tired from doing kendo and martial arts from Frederick I would help you out since your always hungry all the time," Ayumu said "...Yeah, I remember that" I said slowly smiled...

(Flashback)

(Leon Age 10)

"One...two...three!" Frederick yelled as I was timing my hits with the Shinai "AGAIN!" Frederick yelled "HAAAAAA!!!" I yelled slamming into the dummy cut in half "Not bad sport" Frederick said "We can call in breaks for now" Frederick said "Aghh soo tired" I said collapsed to the ground "Hmm looks like we have a visitor" Frederick said smiled "Uhh...sorry to disturb is Leo here??" Ayumu asked poking her head "Yes he's here and done for the bit" Frederick said smiled "Leon how's the kendo practice going for you" Yuu said smiled "Ugh tiring but it's worth it in the end" I said tiredly "I didn't expect Leon to have you two as friends" Frederick said "He didn't say much about them" Frederick said "...BECAUSE YOU SAY!" I yelled, "I say that what's the main reason your fighting for and doing all of this...like what's YOUR motivation," Frederick said as Yuu and Ayu were confused "...My motivation was to help keep Ayu and Yu safe into living a much better world... they been with me well pretty much since grade school..." I said nervously smiled "OW OWOW!!" I yelled got tackled to hugs "Heh very well you can enjoy your break" Frederick said smiled "LUNCHTIME!!" I yelled munching on Ayumu's homemade cooking...

"...You are always in a hungry mood," Ayumu said smiled "Well I been doing this since I was back in grade school..." I said sweatdrop "You were always pushing yourself, Leon, it's bad that you almost kill yourself," Yuu said sighed applying a bandage over my left arm "Okay relax I won't overdo it next time," I said sweatdrop "Say 'ahhh' Leon," Ayumu said holding a spoonful of porridge...

"A-Ayu I can feed myself," I said embarrassed "Leon John Winchester, not with that damaged left arm," Ayumu said with serious expression "O-Okay...you win Ayu," I said nervously chuckled "Well I'm gonna get more bandages," Yuu said smiled "Right," I said looked at Ayumu thinking for a bit "Something on your mind Ayu?" I asked concerned expression "I'm just worried about you..." Ayumu said worried "I can't stand it if something terrible happens to you!" Ayumu yelled "...I...uhh.." I said sweatdrop felt Ayumu hug... "Hey if anything does bad happens I will always be here so don't worry okay Ayumu," I said reassuring her...)

(Present Time)

"D-Do you remember anything else while after Yuu left?" I asked sweatdrop "Hmm? I did feed you then...oh we had that talk" Ayumu said silent expression "Hey...look if anything is bothering me that badly anymore I will talk okay when times right but I'm glad you were there same for Yuu to help me when I needed it the most" I said slowly smiled "...Leon" Ayumu said blushing "BEEPPPP!!" ??? yelled "WHA?!" I yelled "EH?!" Ayumu yelled both flinched "Phone ringing Leon it's from mom," Leonidas said with a confused expression "Ughh," I said sighed sweatdrop "Well we should get going to the clubroom Leo everyone would be wondering where we are at when you're done," Ayumu said "Right I'll be there in a bit," I said waved then went to answer mom phone... "Hello?" I asked confused expression then eyes widened...
