Somewhere in the middle of the Indian ocean… The strange boy flew towards his destination before halting suddenly. “W-What the hell is that…?”
He squinted his eyes, seeing a distorted figure flying towards him at a speed even faster than his own.
“H-Hold on…! You're going too fas-” The distortion flew straight through his stomach and disappeared into the distance. Blood immediately started to pour out of him as he began to fall down into the ocean. Suddenly, his body regenerated. He immediately stopped falling and flew back up.
----------------------------------------
“W-What the hell was that?! Man… The future is weird…” He suddenly noticed that it was coming back.
“Oh no you don't!” He flew up as fast as he could as the distortion flew back to where it came from.
“W-Why did it just go back…?” He sighed and began flying towards his destination once again.
“God, that hurt though…”
----------------------------------------
A day after the hijinks took place in Hokkaido, Bmon left Jimmens High for the day and started to walk home. “...How did Buster win yesterday…? Daisuke clearly had the most money…” He muttered to himself.
----------------------------------------
Bmon caught himself as he almost bumped into someone. “Sorry about that… That's the second time I've bumped into someone this week. U-Um…” He immediately looked intimidated upon raising his head. A very tall woman with a katana was in front of him.
----------------------------------------
“W-well I… Y-You do know you can't walk around with a katana right…?”
The Woman stared at him before looking at her katana. “Oh… Is that why people have been looking at me strangely… Do you happen to know what year it is?” She questioned.
“U-Um… I think they may have been looking at you because of both the katana, and how tall you are… As for the year, it is June 15th, 2024.”
----------------------------------------
“W-wait 2024?! That would mean I'm… more than 100 years old?” She tilted her head with confusion.
“...You look like you are 18 to me… I think I would notice if you were older than 100.”
“N-No! I don't mean it like that… You see, my name is Konoe Kana. I was a samurai from the Edo Period, and I seem to have been sent to the future…”
----------------------------------------
Bmon sighed. “...I would say that sounds unbelievable but that would be coming from someone who can travel through furniture.”
“Y-You can travel through furniture!? That's so cool! Do you just… Walk into the furniture or…” Kana speculated.
“Uh… Well normally I just shove my hand onto the furniture and enter the Archive when doing that.”
----------------------------------------
“Wow… You sure are a funny individual.” Kana giggled.
This narrative has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. If you see it on Amazon, please report it.
“By the way, Kana-chan… How did you end up in the United States if you were from Tok- I mean Edo…”
“The… United States? What's that?” She tilted her head.
----------------------------------------
“Oh right… Um… The west.”
“E-Eh?! We are on the other side of the world?”
“Yeah… Anyway, could you explain how you got sent into the future?” Bmon asked with curiosity.
“Oh, sure. It was on a sunny day in the summer, I was resting in an open field…”
----------------------------------------
1697. Edo, Japan.
----------------------------------------
Kana ran into an open field and fell onto the grass.
“Hmm… This place seems like a good area to rest for today-” She noticed in the corner of her eye, a door in the middle of the field without any support around it.
“H-How is there a door here…? There's no building or anything…”
----------------------------------------
Kana cautiously walked toward the door and placed her hand on the doorknob.
“...Should I open it? This could be a trap though…” After a couple minutes she decided to open the door, upon opening it all she saw was an eye.
Kana immediately jumped back instinctively. “W-What the hell is that?!” She yelled out while reaching for her katana.
----------------------------------------
“...You think a puny sword like that is going to do anything against me?” It glared at her before grabbing her.
“L-Let go!” Kana frantically tried to escape from the creature's grasp, however it took her inside of the door. Once they were both inside, the door closed; disappearing from the open field.
----------------------------------------
In the darkness, Kana slowly opened her eyes and saw what resembled a palace within the darkness.
“Human, you have interrupted my nap and for that I will punish you accordingly!” She heard a voice coming out of thin air. Within an instant, a magical circle formed under Kana’s feet.
“You will be sent to the future, since you cannot help but waste people's time… Now begone!”
----------------------------------------
Once the magical circle lit up, Kana immediately vanished. The creature reappeared and sighed. “Damn it… Who approaches a door very clearly in the middle of nowhere?! Ugh. Where did I even send her anyway?”
----------------------------------------
Present Day. Jimmens, USA. 2024
----------------------------------------
“That pretty much covers it… After that I woke up on a street in this city a few minutes ago.” She told Bmon
Stare… “...How did you even know about that last part…? You weren't even there?”
“Oh wait it's backstory logic nevermind don't answer that.”
Kana turned her head in confusion. “Back… Story logic…?”
----------------------------------------
“...Anyway. There's one more question I have, you said that the archive; or rather the other side of that door had a… Palace inside of it?” He questioned
“Yes… I remember it very clearly, it resembled the home of the Shogun…
“...I guess the archive changes with the times.” Bmon sighed, an idea formed in his mind.
----------------------------------------
“Hey Kana, do you want to stay at my place?” He asked.
“Huh? Is that okay with your parents?” She questioned.
“I'm living with my butler actually… but yeah he will be fine with it, if not I'll make Himari lower his pay” Bmon grinned.
----------------------------------------
“Okay… Lead the way then.” The two began to walk to Bmon and Buster's Residence.
“Here we are, don't mind the very odd looking structurally strange third floor.”
Kana looked at the spherical shape of Buster's lab. “Wow… How is that possible?”
“Honestly, I don't know you would think it would have fallen apart structurally…”
----------------------------------------
They entered Bmon's Residence and went up to Buster's Lab. “Yo, Buster, can you help me out here?” Bmon asked.
Buster looked over at Bmon and saw Kana, immediately he burst into laughter. “B-Bmon, when did you get a girlfriend?”
“...Huh? She's not… Whatever, Buster, do you have a way to translate someone's language back and forth? She doesn't know how to speak English.”
“Oh… You mean the Universal Translation Device I made a few months ago?”
----------------------------------------
Bmon sighed. “Y-Yes… That.”
Buster rummaged through his equipment and pulled out a watch and handed it to Kana, as Kana put the watch on, she suddenly heard Buster.
“Can you hear me? I'm speaking in english right now so if you hear me then that means it works…” He asked.
“Y-Yes I can hear you…” Kana replied, Buster punched the air triumphantly. “That's another device that has successfully worked!”
----------------------------------------
“...Shut up, Buster, the only reason we couldn't test it before was because we didn't know anyone who didn't know English already.” Bmon smirked.
“Couldn't we have tried it with someone who didn't know Japanese though, Bmon?” He responded.
Bmon looked at the wall for a second. “...F*@&”
Kana began laughing. “You two are funny…”
----------------------------------------
“Now Bmon, explain to me where she came from surely she couldn't have come to America without understanding English.” Buster questioned.
As Bmon explained the situation, Buster had no issue understanding what happened. “Oh… So the stupid Guardian sent her to the future and you want her to live with us… I guess that's fine.”
“Thank you, Buster!” Kana shouted with a smile.
----------------------------------------
“...Sure.” He nodded.
Bmon and Kana walked back down to the second floor and stood in front of one of the two guest rooms. “You can stay in this room… All right?”
“Yeah! Thank you Bmon… I don't know what I would have done without you.” Kana bowed.
“N-No need to bow, this isn't the Edo Period anymore…”
----------------------------------------
Kana smiled and went into her room.
Bmon sat there for a moment before an idea formed in his mind. “Huh… A Party huh? Maybe this time it wont go as badly as the last one that I wasn't actually invited to.”
He began to make a phone call.
