May 22nd, 2026
'It is raining heavily but Trey is in the city, waiting outside a suit store to get a tailored suit for prom. He has an umbrella and keeps checking his phone as he waits outside and a large amount of people pass by.'

Trey: *Where is he?* He looks around and sighs

Haruto is jogging up to Trey with an umbrella, having parked his motorcycle in a nearby parking lot to avoid the rain.

Haruto: Sorry I'm late. Parking is a pain in the ass to find in the rain... Trey chuckles and smiles as he looks up at the sky.

Trey: Hasn't rained in forever... where'd it come from? He starts to walk in the shop, holding the door open for Haruto.

Haruto: It never rains, man. Haruto walked in and and held the door for Trey to enter. Maybe it's just some crazy coincidence. Maybe it's foreshadowing something. Who knows? The cashier greets the two young men as they enter.

Trey: Haha, foreshadowing, yea right. 'He laughs a little and rolls his eyes and talks to the cashier about getting a tailored suit. She calls a man who starts getting his measurements.' So I forgot to ask when we talked yesterday, but how's your mom doing? She still have that cold?

Haruto: She's doing better. Good enough to go back to work, but she's wearing a medical mask. Why, it's a Japanese thing. Helps prevent the spread of airborne germs.' Haruto turns to the cashier and asks her about getting a tailored suit as well. She tells him to wait for Trey's measurements to be taken.'

Trey: Heh, that would look funny, just wearing a medical mask would make me so uncomfortable. Why haven't you healed her with your strength card yet? 'He shakes his head as he raises his arms and the man starts to write down the measurements and hands it to the woman. She then goes in the back as the man gestured for Haruto.'

Haruto: Dude, it's a cold. I think she can heal herself just fine. 'Haruto raised up his arms as the man began taking Haruto's measurements, wrote them down, and put them on the cash register for the cashier to pick up later. Haruto quickly gave the man some specifications for the design of his suit, which the man wrote down on his notes with Haruto's measurements'

Trey shrugged as he went around the shop to look for dress shoes.

Trey: I'm so excited to go with Natalie dude... I've liked her for so long and now I'm actually going to PROM with her. He crouches down to look at an expensive dress shoe. Haruto: Right... *I still can't believe I'm going alone...*' Haruto looked around the shop, then checked his phone. He got a text from Katie, saying that her roommate was home and wanted to meet him. Haruto replied to her message saying he was getting his suit tailored.' Hm. Hey, Trey. I'm gonna run over to Katie's real quick. She wants me to meet her roommate. You mind dropping off my suit at home? I'll text you the code to open the garage, so just hang the suit up somewhere away from the bikes.' After getting confirmation from Trey that he would, Haruto thanks him before heading out to the parking lot to get on his CBR1000RR Fireblade and speeding off to Katie's place. He parks his bike in the driveway and approaches the door, knocking. Almost immediately, Katie answers the door.'

Katie: Oh, you're here! Thanks for coming on such short notice, my roommate really wanted to meet you.

Haruto: Yeah, sure. He enters after she welcomes him in, taking off his shoes and helmet at the door.

Roommate: That him? Katie's roommate is lying on the couch, watching a horror move on TV and eating a bag of chips

Katie: Mhm. Haruto, this is my roommate. Her name's Clarabelle. I call her Belle for short, but Clara also works.

Belle: Nice to meet you, Ha- Do you have any other names for yourself? She rolled around on the couch, emphasizing her large chest

Haruto: You can call me Hunter. Haruto ignored the fact that her chest was being pressed against the couch, trying his best not to stare.

Belle: Oh, perfect. Nice to meet you, Hunter. She was lying on the couch stomach down now, eating chips as she continued watching her horror move. He's kinda cute.

Haruto: *What?* He blushed lightly at her compliment, then to Katie. So...

Katie: She's been at home a lot more lately since her boyfriend dumped her.

Haruto: Oh... He nodded slowly

Katie: So... got a date?

Haruto: Katie, it's the day before prom. There's no way I can get a girl to go with me this late.

Katie: True... You got kinda unlucky this year, not being able to ask a girl out quick enough... I know a few girls who would've liked to go with you.

Haruto: ... Alright then.

Belle: He didn't get a prom date in time? Jeez, dude.  She rolled around so she could lie on some pillows and look at Haruto from where she is You're a bit of an unlucky guy, aren't you?

Haruto: ... Yeah, sure. I guess you could call me a bad luck charm. He offered a smile and a nervous chuckle at his lame allusion.

Katie: Well, you are busy with other things. Haruto froze up at what Katie was referring to before pulling her away to her room W-wait, Hunter!

Belle: Hey man, she's already got her prom date!

Haruto: Not what I'm intending to do! Once Haruto and Katie got to the latter's room, he closed the door and turned his attention to her Katie. I've already told you about the World, right?

Katie: In that one note, yes.

Haruto: Let me go into detail. He sat down in a chair by her nightstand. So, I've already got the World. With that, I can use all the powers in the card deck, and stop time for as long as I want.

Katie: Right. She sat down on her bed and listened to Haruto.

Haruto: So, since I've got the World, that means I'm going to need to go someplace else to train and get some new stuff in space. In the time I'm gone, I want you to know that it's fine for you to move on to someone else that's not me. I appreciate everything you've done for me, truly. Which is why I want you to find someone you can be happy with for the rest of your life that's not me. Because my life is dangerous and complicated.

Katie: You're sure? Haruto nodded yes to confirm. Then... I have one last gift to give you.' She got up and crouched so she was eye to eye with Haruto before caressing his cheek and kissing him on the lips for a fairly decent amount of time for a kiss. The two enjoyed it before Katie pulled away.'

Haruto: Wasn't that your...

Katie: First kiss? Yep. And I know that was your first kiss too, so...

Haruto: W-well then... Going away present?

Katie: Mhm. Good luck, Haruto. She gave him a smile, which Haruto returned, before the room to Katie's room opened and Belle walked in

Belle: So I was feeling a bit hungry, and- Oh. My bad. I'll come back later...' She backed away as Katie got up and walked to the kitchen with a blush. Making sure Katie was gone, Belle entered her room and sat in Haruto's lap' So... you two have a long history, don't you?

Haruto: Y-yeah... Why are you sitting in my lap...? Haruto was blushing like crazy as Belle wrapped her arms around his neck

Belle: Don't worry about it~ But seriously though, what is up with you? I heard you showed up here and you about to bleed out. Thank god you didn't, and thank you for not bleeding on the furniture.

Haruto: Right... Um... *I can't tell her. I can't be sure if she'll keep the secret or not.* It was a bad night to go out. Ran into some bad people and ticked them off by accident. *That's believable, right?*

Belle: Somehow... that doesn't seem like the truth...

Haruto: *Son of a dick.* Well, that's what happened.

Katie: Hunter!! Can you help me make something?? I'm feeling hungry too!

Haruto: I should help her out. He was going to get up, but Belle kept him down by forcing her weight on him

Belle: Nuh uh, big boy. Not till you tell me what really happened that night.

Haruto: It's not worth asking about, trust me.

Belle: I like a dangerous guy~

Haruto: You have to be kidding me... He sighed before telling her that he was the vigilante hero Anomaly/Reigai, even transforming into his Fool armor to prove it

Belle: Wow... this is a whole other level... Haruto removed his armor before walking into the kitchen since Belle had to get up so he could transform H-hey, wait!

Haruto: Sorry to make you wait. What are we making? He hid his belt in his jacket before talking to Katie

Katie: Oh! Can you make that Napolitan spaghetti from that one time? And that Japanese-style omelette? Those were sooo good! She already had the spaghetti noodles boiling and some eggs on the counter-top

Haruto: Sure.' He asked her to get the rest of the ingredients for the omelettes and spaghetti before taking over the kitchen and making the meal. Belle walked out of Katie's room and sat down at the dining table while Katie helped make some side dishes for them to eat. After some time, the three sat down at the table and ate their meal, enjoying the sounds of the rain outside and the TV playing movies and such.'

Belle: This is nice. I would've cooked, but I was feeling kind of lazy today.

Katie: She's a pretty good cook, believe it or not.

Haruto: That so? Haruto looked over Belle, noticing that she had a decent figure and slightly exaggerated curves, then immediately ignored all of that so he didn't seem like a pervert.

Belle: I spend a lot of time working out, believe it or not. She looked over Haruto, but couldn't tell what kind of figure Haruto had since he was wearing concealing clothes for the most part Dude, are you gonna take your jacket off? It's kinda hot in here. She took off her plaid shirt to reveal a white tank-top that was just barely able to hide her chest.

Haruto: Uh... Haruto avoided looking at her Sure, I guess. He took off his jacket, displaying his plain white t-shirt

Katie: Belle, it's not that hot. Besides, don't you have something a bit more... concealing...?

Belle: What's wrong? Are they making him nervous~? She teased Haruto by puffing out her chest to further emphasize it

Haruto: Y-yes... I think I'm about to lose my appetite...

Belle: Alright, alright. She put her plaid shirt back on, but leaving it unbuttoned Better, mister anti-social?

Haruto: Yeah... He continues eating his meal with a blush.

Belle: You're adorable! She giggled as she finished her plate And your cooking is great! I'd love to hang out with you some more!

Haruto: I'm uh... going out of state soon, actually... Not sure when my "flight" is scheduled, but it's soon... He looked out the window and sighed, setting his utensils down Don't know how long I'll be gone, either, so don't expect me to come back soon.

Belle: Awww, that's disappointing. Come back soon, please~? She bat her eyelashes at him and pouted

Haruto: Don't give me that...

Katie: Belle, he's a busy guy. Let him do what he needs.

Belle: Fiiiine. Hmph!

Haruto: I'm glad I didn't bring sake this time...

Katie: Me too...

Belle: Sake? Where??

Haruto: Not here! He froze up

Katie: Did you bring anything?

Haruto: No, I didn't get to pick something up on the way here.

Katie: Next time?

Haruto: If there is a next time.

Belle: There's always a next time with me~!

Haruto: I just met you...

Belle: Let's get to know each other soon, yeah?

Haruto: How old are you...?

Belle: 16, almost 17..

Haruto: Really?! He looked at her, then to Katie, who shrugged, then back to Belle You've gotta be kidding me...

Belle: Crazy, I know. She took another bit of her omelette. What about you?

Haruto: I turned 17 about a month ago. He took a sip of water

Belle: Really? You look pretty young for a junior...

Haruto: Everyone says that...

Belle: So... what's this business trip about?

Haruto: An... internship of sorts. It's gonna be a while.

Belle: Interesting. Who are you interning for?

Haruto: Uh... no one important. It's just a side job.

Belle: Okay then...

Katie: How's the suit coming along, Hunter?

Haruto: Uh... not sure. Trey's getting his suit tailored too.

Katie: Well, that was a nice meal. Dessert anyone?

Haruto: Uh... What do you have?

Belle: I bought some red bean mochi yesterday.

Haruto: I wanna try this crepe recipe I found a few days ago.

Belle: Ooh? Crepes, huh? Go for it, I wanna see how it goes.

Haruto: Excuse me.' He gets up to make the crepe batter, as well as some fruits and homemade whipped cream. The girls tell him what they want on their crepes, and he makes them as specified. They spend plenty of time talking to each other, Haruto getting to know Belle a bit better while doing so.'

Prom Night
'It was around 8:00 pm when the first of the group arrived outside the prom hall. Eliana pulled up in a white limousine with neon purple lights along it, courtesy of Thaddeus of course. She stepped out wearing a ruby long dress and a large smile on her face, looking around at everyone, waiting for the others to arrive.'

Eliana: *Dominic said he's coming in five minutes.* In the meantime she spoke to some of her ecstatic friends.

'Haruto pulled up to the parking lot on his Harley bobber, parking his bike in a designated spot and walking up to the line by himself, leaving his helmet and bag on the bike. He adjusts his silver necktie with a gold clock pattern on it, dusting off his crimson blazer and black slacks.'

Haruto: *Is anyone else already here?* He looks around and spots Eliana talking to her friends. *Oh, Eli's here... Should I talk to her? Maybe later* He waits by himself with his hands in his pockets, removing a pocket watch from his right pocket and checking the time. *Alright, cool. Plenty early.*

Eliana: 'She looks around and sees Haruto, so says bye to her friends. She heads over to Haruto to say hi.' Haruto! Hey, nice suit!

Haruto: Hey, Eli! Nice dress, liking the ruby red. He smiles at her as she walks over to him. So... you and Dom are going together? Where is he?

Eliana: He'll be here soon, he just texted me. We were gonna leave together but apparently Thaddeus hired a limo for me, and, well, since he's been, you know, I couldn't reject the offer...

Haruto: Ah... Fair enough. Trey should be showing up with Natalie at some point sooner or later.

Dominic arrived much early, like four minutes early, as he came in Speed Demon Protocol and when he unarmored, it showed a nice suit underneath, with a Green tie, and he smiled as he went to Haruto and Eli.

Dominic: Hey Haruto, Eli, sorry if I'm late, had to take care of dad, ya' know, muggers getting an old lady, and talked to a friend a bit...

Eliana: It's okay. We're still early. Nice suit by the way! She lightly hugs him to greet him. Just waiting for Trey to arrive with Natalie.

Dominic: Not surprising that they're not here yet, as in you may never know they could be having the "aftermath of prom" without the prom right now... 'He chuckled making a slightly dirty joke in the process. He then gets a bit fixated on Eli a bit.'

'A matte textured navy blue Audi R8 came rumbling down the street and stopped at the red light. The was brought down and it was seen to be Trey with Natalie in the passengers seat waving at the group. The light turned green as they turned right into the parking lot and parked in a designated spot. They got out, with Trey holding Natalie's hand and it's seen that they are wearing matching dark red outfits. Trey is wearing shades and takes them off, stuffing them in his suit pocket and walking to the group in line.' Trey: Hey guys! What's goin' on?

Natalie: What's up? Oh my God, Eliana, you look amaaazing! That red dress really looks great on you! She goes to hug Eliana, and Trey goes to handshake with Haruto and Dom.

Eliana: Thanks! Love the matching outfits. You two look cute together!

Dominic: Glad to see you guys together here, dude, anyways, shall we prom?

Haruto: Whole team's here. Let's do it. He gives everyone a smile and opens the door to Prom for everyone after having their IDs checked.

'They all head inside and walk up some stairs and sees curtains that lead to the huge prom room. When they enter, they see that it's dark and flashing lights from different music playing. As Trey is walking, he looks back to Haruto and rolls his eyes because of the music that's playing.'

Natalie: Wanna get something to drink?

Trey: Sure, I'm definitely not planning to dance right now. They hold hands and walk to the snack and drink stand.

'Haruto heads over to the drink stand and gets himself a can of soda before heading to an empty chair and sitting, drinking the soda in silence and peace. He notices Katie and her Prom date Ty enter the place, then ignores it and goes on his phone.'

Haruto: *Maybe I should play some pranks with my time stop...*' He takes a sip of soda then snaps his fingers and points directly in front of him. Time stops even though he's not using the belt, and he notices Caesar (Origin's real name) standing where the DJ should be.' Caesar? What are you doing here?

Caesar: Almost time to go, buddy. Tonight's gonna be crazy, and you'll be leaving with me by the end of it.

Haruto: I see... He drinks more of his soda and sighs. What happened to the DJ?

Caesar: He's still here, I'm just standing in front of him.

Haruto: Oh, gotcha.

Caesar: So... you're all alone on Prom, and you still decided to go?

Haruto: Why not, right?

Caesar: Much more memorable if you have a date.

Haruto: I was too late. Didn't get to ask the girl I wanted since she'd been asked in advanced.

Caesar: Her, right? He points at Katie in frozen time, still at the door and smiling with her date

Haruto: Yep... I'm starting to think you should just take me now...

Caesar: You still have friends here, Haruto. Celebrate them while you can. You'll be going through some insane s-it once you've left them behind.

Haruto: How long will I be gone? Relative to Earth's time, anyway.

Caesar: Uh... One week over there is a month here... You'll be stuck with me for two weeks over there, so... two months here.

Haruto: Two months...?

Caesar: Yeah. Just be glad you're almost done with the school year. It's... May here, right?

Haruto: Almost the end of the month and school year.

Caesar: Yeah, good enough timing. You'll have a month of summer left before your senior year, relax. After those two... months here, you'll be able to do anything you want. Well, not anything, you've got some contracts to fulfill to the Arcana if you want to keep and upgrade these powers.

Haruto: Contracts?

Caesar: Arcana left some other artifacts scattered throughout space before coming to Earth and leaving the Tarot Buckles here for humanity.

Haruto: I'll have to gather some of those artifacts, won't I?

Caesar: Yep. They want you to take care of it, since they trust you the most.

Haruto: And Giorno?

Caesar: They've seen his fate. They're going to have him trained a bit more intensely than you. You'll be fine, trust me. Well, "fine" is debatable.

Haruto: Lovely. More misery for me...

Caesar: Sorry buddy. But in a way... it's prepping you for what you'll be doing in the future...

Haruto: What?

Caesar: Can't say anymore, sorry. He gave Haruto an awkward smile You go enjoy Prom, kiddo. I'll see you soon.With that, time resumes, Caesar disappeared in the transition from stopped to reflowing time, and Haruto was alone in the room full of people having fun at Prom.

Haruto: Yare yare daze... He sighed before finishing his soda and getting another one.

Dominic and Eliana were near at the snack and drink stand, talking about experiences.

Dominic: So this Myron guy, he's basically your step grandpa, and he wants to make you tho most powerful sorceress, but fears of repeating history?

Eliana: Yes. But he seems a little... Insane. To be honest I pity him. Though he introduced me to magic, and so far it seems pretty interesting. So I'll let him get on with that. She takes a sip of her drink.

Dominic: You know, I never got the chance to ask, what made you stay with me when we were still friends, as in, I was a complete asshole back then, but you stayed... He drank his own drink.

Eliana: You helped with the whole... When I was depressed early last year... That... That was because of Thad. He made me like that but I don't remember why...

Dominic: I hope he can accept me at some point, I mean yes, I know I acted too apprehensive of him during the New Years party, but I want him to know I wont hurt you in any way... He then out his arm around her.

At Natalie and Trey
'They were dancing to a slow song, and Trey had his arm wrapped around her and held her hand up beside them with the other. They swayed from side to side and she rest her head on his chest for a while until the song started to end. Another song was about to play and they separated, holding each other's hands and kissing each other lightly.'

Natalie: Hey babe, I'm gonna hang out with some friends, is that okay? I'll find you later on.

Trey: That's fine Nat, have fun with them okay?

Natalie: Thanks Trey! 'She hugged and kissed him for a long time and Trey slowed touched her face as she left, smiling and walking to get a plate of 8 chocolate covered strawberries. He sat down next to Haruto and yawned as another upbeat song came on and some people started dancing like crazy.'

Trey: Havin' fun man?

Haruto: Uh... sure?  He took another sip of his drink, looking at the crowd I'm just stopping time and screwing around with people without anyone knowing. Got nothing else to do here. He takes out his pocket watch and checks the time. Hm... We've still got a few of hours left.

Trey: Stopping time? You didn't get with any girls here yet? Single girls are the easiest dude. And only a few hours left? I felt like we've been here for such a long time already! 'He groans as he leans his head back. 'I wish I could stop time and fuck with people. Could you stop time but stop it with me with you?

Haruto: Uh... I'd have to hold onto you so you're not affected by the time stop. It would be really awkward.

Trey: Yea... Good point... I'll just learn it myself. He sips his soda and checks his phone.

Haruto: You have fun with that. He looks at the picture in his pocket watch, then takes it out and puts it in his coat pocket before putting his pocket watch away.

Trey: What's with the pocket watch man?

Haruto: A gift from someone my parents know. He gave this to my dad saying he didn't want or need it anymore, so my dad figured, "Hey, you're dressing up for prom. Have this pocket watch to look extra fancy." And that is why I have it.

Trey: That's awesome dude. I honestly wonder if this superhero sh*t is gonna go far for us. We're already at prom. I wonder how much stronger we'll get or who we'll fight.... He goes into deep thought and burps

Haruto: Who knows?

Dominic: Our power unviersally invites others, either as allies, or as adversaries, I literally picture many possibilities... Dominic stated in his "In a matter of fact" voice.

Trey: Maybe so.... 'He gets up and fixes his suit. 'I'm gonna go find Natalie guys. Cya later. He walks through prom, and a good dancing song was playing and everybody started dancing more and having fun, as it got louder

Haruto: I think I'll go talk to Katie.' Haruto gets up and looks for Katie on the dance floor. He then realizes how f--king hot it is in the place. Fortunately, there's an outside area with more snacks and drinks. He looks for a cup of water and picks one up, then looks up and sees Katie reaching for the one next to the one he picked up.'

Katie: Found ya! She poked him lightly on the nose before taking a sip of water How are you holding out, Hunter?

Haruto: Bored. Screwing around with my time stop. Not much else. He takes a sip of water before he sees Katie back up and someone pats him a bit aggressively on the back, almost making him choke.

Ty: This your friend? He has his hand on Haruto's back, meaning he was the one who basically slapped him on the back

Katie: Yep. Hunter, this is my prom date Ty. He's another old friend, though I don't think you two have met before.

Haruto: First time meeting him, alright... He turns around and faces Ty, Haruto being just a bit taller

Ty: Nice to meet you. Any friend of Katie's is my friend. He gives Haruto a smile and extends his hand

Haruto: Yeah, nice meeting you too. He shakes Ty's hand briefly and turns his attention to Katie

Katie: Well, you two talk to each other for a bit. I'm gonna talk with my other friends. See ya in a bit! She walks away to find her other friends, leaving the two guys to talk.

Ty: You're Hunter, huh? He crosses his arms and looks at Haruto

Haruto: Yes. Why...? *Is my Tokusatsu airing right now...? S-it, I think it is... I'll find the video tomorrow...*

Ty: You're really close to Katie, aren't you? Why didn't you ask her out?

Haruto: Beca-

Ty: Oh yeah, I beat you to it. Wanna know why?

Haruto: You're jealous?

Ty: You took my dear Katie from me. The girl I've loved since elementary school... And you stole her away...

Haruto: I-

Ty: Shut up! Tonight, I finally have her to myself. And you better not get in our way...

Haruto: It's not my fault I have crippling depression.

Ty: Who cares?! It's your fault for falling for her when you should've known she was out of your league! It's your fault you couldn't keep yourself off of her and let her play with you like that! That's all on you!!

Haruto: SHUT UP! He yelled pretty loud and scared a bunch of people away You're not me. Don't talk like you're me. You can finally have her all to yourself, you jealous bastard. We've already talked and agreed to move on from each other. Start dating, break up, spend time as friends, get back together, get married. I don't give a s-it. She's better off with you. With me, she'll be in harm's way every step of her life with me. Take her. She never belonged to me, she just wanted to cheer me up.

Ty: So she's all mine?

Haruto: She's free to commit to whoever she wants. If she chooses you, that's fine with me. He starts to walk away I'll be disappearing soon enough anyway...

Ty: Then she's all mine... 'He walks off to find Katie in the crowd of confused people. Haruto remains alone, finishing his cup of water before tossing it in the recycle and stopping time to find a corner to sulk in.'

Haruto: *Caesar... you should've just taken me to the Arcana earlier... This world is irritating and full of crushed hopes...* He returns to the corner he was at earlier and resumes time, watching the crowd dance and managing to pick out Ty and Katie dancing together in there. *This is painful to watch...*' He puts his right hand over where his heart is and holds it, feeling the emotional heartache inside of him and sighing. Then, he starts to sing, or rather, whisper the lyrics to a song' If being born into this world is a sin that can't be erased... Then maybe living is the cross that we all have to bear...

As soon Haruto stopped his time stop, Dom went to him.

Dominic: Haruto, what happened? He sat beside him.

Haruto: It's nothing important. He lied down on the bleachers and stared up at the dimly-lit ceiling Just met Katie's date. I talked with Katie a while back and we both agreed to move on. Don't know if I can trust her date to live with her, but if she's happy with him, it's fine by me.

Dominic: Knowing reasons why you'd start caring, I don't trust him, he seems obsessive, can you find happiness with someone who's obsessed with you?

Haruto: I think you can enjoy living with someone obsessed with you. You just need to manipulate the situation so that two of you are both equally happy somehow. But enough about me. How are you and Eli doing?

Dominic: We're stable, I mean we're not all lovey dovey, we trust each other, we feel more for each other. To be honest, I don't want to fuck it all up again, not just with her, with you guys too.

Haruto: Fair enough. He holds his hand up to the ceiling and clenches it into a fist Since you're already here, I'll tell you now. Tonight, I'm going beyond the World. Don't know when, where or how specifically, but I'll be going tonight for sure.
