Chapter 2 : Yuri-chan... Isn't as powerless as she thought.
Yuri-san here ! Currently haunting a classroom. It isn't exciting at all, but I didn't want to bother Agito during his P.E. class, (urgh, boy's locker room...) so instead I went to see how the others were doing. Funnily enough, Nagito, Tasuku, and his four haremettes were in the same class. The two haremettes who came back looked downright horrible, very pale and with big shadows under their eyes.
In front of everyone, was a strict looking black haired woman in a suit, who was walking around, showing the class an image of those robot guys.
"As you already know, those extraterrestrial entities have two goals, assimilation, or destruction of mankind. As a matter of fact, until the Kanata incident, we didn't know that they would ever attempt the former."
By the way, Kanata is the name of the residential quarter where the Nekota apartment is. Was. I think it's my fault they came here, but I managed to escape, so it's just alright... Tasu-guy was currently dozing off and was hit on the head by the professor's stack of paper.
"And it certainly wasn't for you. Why you would be put in the elite class eludes me, but now that you won't last a week if you don't straighten up, young man."
Ha ha ha, I like you lady.
I drifted away randomly and found myself in front of the girl's locker room.
"Uoh ?! They got even bigger!"
"Nooooooo!"
Ah, they're comparing breast sizes.
Tsk, that's annoying.
Nufufufu, maybe a bit of cold air will calm you down, you bunch of cats in heat!
"Eeeek ! C-Cold!"
"C-could it be a ghost ?"
Now I'm feeling really annoyed.
Ghost? Don't call me by that insulting name, damn it ! I'm a spirit ! It's totally not the same!
"Kyaaaaaaaa!"
Oops, froze the water in the showers. Too bad, hee hee.
I escape, not that I really need to, and fly up and up and up. Not having a body has its perks! Well, I guess I should go and introduce myself to the other spirits, just so that I don't get blindsided. Sooo, opening inner senses and... Nothing.
...Eh ?
Nothing ? As in no nature spirits ?
That's weird. There are probably deities of the land then. Let's look around.
Still nothing.
I'm feeling pretty worried right now.
Assimilation 70%
Nyahaaaa, pretty girl, magical, miracle Yuri-chan is in the plaaaaaaace! Are ? Where are we?
Hm, We're in spirit form, so I'd assume we're in the spiritual plane, but there's nobody else, so we must be in some sort of limbo...
Umu, that sounds interesting! Let me check for a bit.... Nope, 100% spirit plane, no gods and no spirits.
Does that mean...
Yuuuup, congratulations, me , we're the top dogs right there!
Humph, we always were, though so few entities is troubling, we definitely remember erasing several of them.
Ano, your highness, did you consider that, maybe, you erased the last of them ?
...
And that the more you erased, the more trouble you were getting into?
...
And so, wouldn't it be logical to admit that you actually are a go....
DENIAL MODE ACTIVATE!
It's a ridiculous assumption Magica. Now , we have several problems in our hands, some of them would be.
"...yja..."
Did you hear that?
Aye!
Sadly, yes.
The voice seemed angry.
"...Freyja!"
I was yanked from my perfectly comfortable place in the clouds and thrown in a room, obviously a girl's. In fact, it was one of the haremette's, Yumeko, if I remember well, she was currently trashing the place. Geez, take a chill pill. What got your knickers in a... Oh.
On one of the tables, a pregnancy tester was clearly in the positive.
Oh. Well, that certainly explains it.
"...And all he speaks about is Freyja Freyja Freyja! And me in all that, don't I count? Of course not! Not even after what happened back there...."
Mu ? She's crying now, holding her abdomen.
"..I don't get it, I don't want it ! I can't keep it!"
Oookay girl, moving into very uncomfortable territory right there, so I'm gonna use a bit of magic on you....
I put my hand in her head and rifle through her memories. Her whole body seizes up.
Oh.
OH.
I'm glad I didn't take Kirylle's offer...
Damn, Tasu-guy is heartless.
"Men are pigs, are they not?"
"Yes they... Who's there!"
She looked wildly around, weapons appearing in her hands. Could it be that...
"...Did you hear me?"
"Wa... Who are you? Where are you ? Show yourself!"
"I would, if I could, but being a spirit, it's a miracle I can communicate with you."
"That voice... You're Freyja, right?"
Her voice lowered, and on her face, I could see a mixture of anger and sadness.
"I would prefer being called by my name, but if you insist ..."
"Why are you there."
How rude!
"You called me, repeatedly at that, it's like a tug, I was content being in the clouds , and then I'm yanked here. So, what's your problem?"
"Why would you listen?"
"I've got nothing better to do, and we did get along pretty well back then..."
"Before you betrayed and left us!"
"Before I left because the whole situation was fishy."
There was a moment of silence.
"Why are you here?"
That question again ?
"I don't know, I've been separated from my body, so now you can consider me like a higher spirit...My body has been captured, and I really don't want to know what those guys are doing with it."
The girl looked up, brown eyes somewhat understanding.
"Being too weak to do anything..."
"Yea, it hurts, and sometimes, even strength isn't enough."
Another uncomfortable pause. Then I decided to throw caution to the window. I might be influenced by Reisen right now.
"So, what are you gonna do ?"
"I don't know."
I concentrate, and look at her closely, not that she could see it of course. It was there, tiny and pulsing, but there, and strong. I... don't know what is that feeling that washes over me, but my next words... are almost instinct.

He he he, let me, I'm good at this.
Hmph, 'I' would be the specialist in that, don't forget your place, Reisen.
Would you two just do whatever and shut up already ?
"I could take it away. Give it to someone who wants it. But there will be a price."
Her eyes fill up with tears.
"What do you want?"
"Justice. A Warrior for my cause ? I don't really know. I'm the only one left after all, and pretty new to this stuff."
There is trepidation in her voice, carrying a meaning that I don't fully understand, but similar to having one's suspicions proven true.
"There will be a war, and lots of death...."
"Valkyria. You want me to become a Valkyrie."
...
Suuuuure, let's roll with that.
"Yes. At the moment, I'm too weak due to the lack of faith, but I can do at least this."
She wiped out her eyes, speaking up hesitantly.
"What will happen to the child?"
"You teacher is supposedly sterile, and her dearest wish is to give birth. Changing the incubator shouldn't be too much for the me right now. The girl will grow up strong and loved with that woman as a mother."
It was easy to look into her head when she was drunk in the night after a fling with the PE teacher. Yumeko or whatever she is put her hand on her womb again.
"And Tasuku-ku...Tasuku?"
"The annoying guy that can't get a hint? Feel free to hit him for me, I know he needs it."
"I-I wouldn't..."
"Puh-lease, he treated you as a pretty accessory, then threw you to the wolves the moment prettier ladies threw themselves at him."
"H-He..."
Reisen, I swear...
Hush, it's for her own good.
"It's his fault."
"What?"
"His impudence in chasing me, diminished as I was, caused everything you had to go through. Think about your life before you met him. Do you regret following him now? Wasn't what you went through enough?"
"...I Regret..."
"Indeed, now, you only have regrets left, and it's all. His. Fault."
Queen/Reisen's voice is crooning softly at her. I can see why those two fused so easily last time.
"You've been a good girl, nothing is your fault, everything is his, don't feel ashamed."
"...Everything -sob- His fault..."
"Yes. Now, our time is drawing short. Do you want to become one of mine, or the remainder, the footnote, the proof of that guy's incompetence."
The girl was kneeling, fingers drawing blood from her palms.
"I... would never love that child. Please take it away."
There was now steel in her eyes, verrrrrry good.
I feel dirty right now, Rei...
You'll get used to it.
I certainly hope not.
Lily agrees.
W-Wait, you were watching that ?!
Yuri idiot? Course I did. Reisen did good. But making girl hate pervy-guy bad.
Ahaha, Lily-him*bonk*
Lily and Reisen go now. Reisen needs talk.
"Well, then..."
My hand travels down to her abdomen and carefully takes out the little golden sphere, the unborn life that it housed.
Because of that, though, her placenta started falling to pieces and blood flowed.
"I'll leave you to clean up."
...
Wasted again, Geeze, that woman...
I put the sphere in her womb, forsing and stimulating the sudden growth. Should be alright now.
"I've been forgotten for quite a while, but I suppose fair's fair, this child that wasn't wanted will be yours now. Raise it well."
Seriously, why am I saying those embarrassing things. I'm feeling self conscious now.
Well, back to being bored. I suppose I'll go and see Agito? Well it's night, but maybe he's up ?
He wasn't. Watching him sleep was boring, so I played around in a nearby river.
"Freyja-sama?"
That Yume-girl's voice was loud and clear now, I wonder why. Well, I went to her anyways.
"Yes?"
"..."
"You didn't just call me to verify that I exist, did you?"
She was still in her bedclothes and half asleep.
"Meep."
I facepalm.
"And that's going to be my first Valkyrie. Mankind is doomed."
"D-Don't say that! I will do my best to serve you well, Freyja-sama!"
I pat her head absentmindedly and sit in her bed, before realizing what exactly I did.
"B-Beautiful..."
I touched her, she sees me, and just after she decided I'm a goddess.
...
Eheee, Told you s-
DENIAL MODE ACTIVATE!
"... Just go to class."
I run away graciously float away to peep on observe the students of the academy. They are very hardworking, especially when dozing off earns them being chilled to the bone. Yume-girl giggles a lot because of that. Well, I guess I can do that much at least. Then, at midday, the inevitable happened.
Tasu-guy.
Uh on, I don't like Yume-girl's look right now.
"You shouldn't..."
"I thought of it all night, Freyja-sama, it needs to be done."
She walked straight towards him, planted herself just in front, grabbed a nearby chair and hit him with it, sending him flying through the window.
"Tasuku you ASSHOLE!"
Uwaaaa, I might have awoken a volcano....

Blue box sama is back! With bad news!
And so, the first day of Tasu-guy's hell begins, and author-sama finds a very ethical way of dealing with a complicated problem u_u
