The Akuma

Chapter 23 - Life 23:

-Four Days Later:-

The deal of the house was made it was renovated, and finally we had moved in.

It was spacious, isolated, full of vegetation and everything we needed.

Thought Furuichi as he couldn't help but form a smile on his face as he looked at the house something he'd bought, something he'd worked hard for.

Something no one else helped him on but himself, it made him proud and happy at his achievement, more rather achievements ever since he'd gained his powers he'd decreased the crime rates of the nearby cities.

But mostly he'd reduced open gang deals in abandoned buildings and most importantly muggings.

But still one or two incidents still occured though it didn't faze him as he wasn't capable of being everywhere and solving every problem.

The federation was there for that...

Once we'd arrived in the house what Shiori immediately did was start on making inventions and gadgets to aid me in my crusade against crime.

However she also mentioned something I'd heard a while ago, "Master, remember when I said I wanted to upgrade myself- you said to put that on the side until we gained a house- a larger and private house, well I've been waiting to ask- can I upgrade myself-.."

Hearing that Furuichi grinned a little as he said, "I've been meaning to talk to you about that all this time and was hoping you'd say something- yet only now do you talk about it- my answer is the same, we have more room and privacy so you can begin your upgrade, Shi-chan!"

Yes that was a while ago and to indeed further her upgrade Shi-chan had taken some samples of my DNA to see if she could create a human vessel for her to reside in.

And for that I willingly complied seeing if she could create a vessel with enhanced strength to help me patrol the city in the dark nights that would cause man to freeze in fear.

But because of that he hadn't seen her for a while as she'd renovated the rooms herself this led to her creating a lab of sorts in the bas.e.m.e.nt where she bought each part and piece required for her experiments.

With only a Com-Ring left in my hand I made breakfast before freshing up and finally heading out, School had been the least of my worries as I'd completely forgotten about it.

But as I remembered about it, my mind drifted to a blue haired girl, Aoi. Her smile and her soft features appeared fully in my mind.

It's true I hadn't seen her for a long time, a long time- rather I had isolated myself from all sorts of social media, due to me patrolling the city.

And with this thought I opened my rucksack before opening up the bag and zipping it off.

Inside laid my iCe 11, as I grabbed the pearly white phone as it shone slightly due to reflecting itself on my outside lanterns.

Quickly holding onto the power button the phone turned on as a bright flash of white light engulfed my eyes, seconds before my lock-screen appeared.

With a picture of the city, no My city I looked at it closely and saw the sparkling lights with neon glowing up the city causing it have a mechanical beauty of some sort.

And swiping up I saw that my Messages app seemingly was bombarded with about 100 new messages as well as 20 calls, and another hundred messages on some other social media.

Taking a closer look I noticed that it was all just Aoi who'd called me, checking the messages it seemed I'd made her really agitated over my disappearance.

———_______———

Aoi: "Hey where are you, I've been to your house countless times yet I can't find you..."

Aoi: "Hey I didn't know you were busy I'll see you later then..."

Aoi: "Hey I've been meaning to ask are you okay, tell me something it's getting annoying now- come on please..."

....

Aoi: "It's been so long since I've seen you at least reply so I know if your still in the land of the living, you b*st*rd..."

....

Aoi: "Fine since you don't wanna talk I'll call the police and tell them you took advantage of me and hurt my ankle as proof of your deed..."

....

Reading through it all he was weirded out, he never knew his impact on her had been so great, so great in fact that she was waiting for him right now as he thought to himself.

He never knew that he could heal his wounded broken heart so quickly as well, he'd completely forgotten about his ex the one who dumped him for more in life.

He couldn't blame her if she wanted more then fine have more, rather he was bothered that she found him a burden a sign of weakness.

That bothered him and this whole hero gig was to show he was no coward he was no burden, no he was more than that he was Furuichi the one the only Akuma.

And this girl seemed to already be a hundred times better than his ex by leaps and bounds she'd checked up on him looked for him asked of his wellbeing, everything.

And thinking about her gave rise to a small grin on Furuichi's face as he merely smiled in a daze remembering her features.

He'd decided that when he'd see her today he'd ask her out, whether the world was burning or zombies appeared he'd confess to her and tell her of his budding feelings towards her.

Merely thinking of her gave rise to a faint blush as his heart began racing, it was obvious he was over his ex now he'd need a partner, a companion and Ali seemed to simply fit the bill.

But just as things began to get interesting suddenly Furuichi's Com-Ring started beeping, in his mind as she relayed a message to him of utmost importance.

'Master, zombies have been spotted near Fubuki River and just further ahead of it in the sewers that lead to the Cities Dam.'

'Damn'

Furuichi grunted as he thought this, his confession had to wait for it seems if somehow the dam got infected the city would be poisoned and possibly even turn into zombies.

The thoughts of this led him to imagine his precious Aoi as one and he grimaced at the sight of it nauseating it was for him before clearing his mind and before he ran in the direction of Kurama City Dam.

With his special words said while running at intense speeds causing people to see only a black and red blur as he thought in his mind.

'HENSHIN!!'

Engulfed in white light he transformed into Akuma as all cameras and electronic devices malfunctioned until his transformation ended.

Once done he sped faster before leaping into the great blue skies and taking a Demon Fruit from his Henshin Bracelet.

Placing it into his mouth somehow as the mask opened on his mouth area.

He crushed it before chewing it all the way down, the flavour was like second nature to him as he gained the instructions on how to use said ability given by said fruit.

'Telekinesis Huh, I wonder who I'll strangle to justice next' Grinned Akuma as he used his telekinetic abilities to levitate himself before soon flying in the air at such intense speeds he caused a sonic boom causing a gust of wind to hit multiple houses behind him.

On said houses a young man was with his wife as he tried impressing her to show he could quite easily lift heavy weights and such, but sadly he'd been taken out by a gust of wind as the weights fell to the ground not hurting him in the process before he fell onto his wife's c.h.e.s.t.

Another similar scene nearby happened as a above average boy with tanned skin and long hair reaching his shoulders was talking to his crush before he confessed however the wind caused him to fall into her.

As quickly their two lips were enamoured with each other, surprising the girl.

She'd never thought the one she'd loved all this time felt the same as her, while the boy was surprised as he felt the girl began to aggressively strike back with her tongue.

The two had similar thoughts in their mind but for one they thanked, the guardian devil for such an opportunity.

And simultaneously the two now love birds stared at each other with intense gazes before saying, "Thank Akuma..."

As they carried on their cutesy pecks on each others lips, causing them to become chapped.
