《Mimic》 Prologue - The Awakening My name is Hayai, and unlike most people i''m going against the strongest person in the school since they determined I was the weakest. I don¡¯t really understand this strange logic but I guess this is how to assess me to see what class I belong to his year, last year in fact I got beat by a guy whose power is to move as slow as a sloth! How does that even happen! So I was put in class F because of it. Not only did I think I was going to get destroyed, oh no, I was going to die. I have no idea what to expect, she is the strongest in the school. What power did she have! Invisibility, flight, summoning demons, weapon summoning, or worst of all, elemental powers, these allow someone to manipulate an element such as fire, or lightning. And since she¡¯s the strongest in the school I¡¯m guessing elemental. Just then I heard the announcer. ¡°Hayai versus Himawari, battle will now commence.¡± And I thought I wouldn''t die. As I walked out of the pre-battle room I could hear people screaming stuff such as ¡°you¡¯re going to die¡± or ¡°prepare the coffin¡± which made it even more stressful. As I glanced at the other pre-battle room I could see her walk out of it. The crowd roared, she had blonde hair, she looked to be around my height (1.76 meters), and can I say she had some cantellops (if you know what I mean) she was wearing our schools uniform which like most schools was a blue suit-like top with a white blouse under it, along with a white skirt which most girls wear short for some weird reason. We lined up to the battle formation which should be called a duel, but they called it battles, not my fault. ¡°The battle will start in 60 seconds,¡± the announcer stated. This narrative has been purloined without the author''s approval. Report any appearances on Amazon. ¡°so you¡¯re the weakest in the school,¡± she said. ¡° Yeah, thats me,¡± I said with an awkward smile. ¡°Well maybe you can last more than ten seconds.¡± ¡°I can only hope.¡± The announcer then started to count down.¡±10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1,¡± ¡°Begin¡± She instantly bolted towards me with a flaming fist. So let¡¯s stop for a second, she has the ability to control fire at her will, I have no idea what my power is since it never really showed itself. So the only way to win this fight would be from dodging attacks for ten minutes (how long the match lasts) and since she has the ability to control fire¡­ I really don''t think that going to happen. Then for no reason it seemed that timed slowed down. I could suddenly see it the way you can control fire. It''s easy, first your skin just has to be ¡°unburnable¡± I have no idea how to make this happen so let''s just skip this part, then you needed to be able to spontaneously combust so, with relative ease, I burst into flames. It would seem as if I could see every move she was going to make ten moves in advance, so I stood there and waited. As soon as she got close enough I grabbed her clenched hand hurdling towards me, then I hugged her to my surprise she got, well, surprised. I took this advantage and whispered ¡°I¡¯m sorry¡± into her ear, she replied ¡°Whaaaaat,¡± and then I punched her in the stomach with my flaming fist. (I was now thinking of other things I could do with my flaming fist [if you know what I mean]). That was the day I knocked the strongest person in the school, in one punch. Just then, I passed out Chapter 1 - Eto I awoke sore from my deep slumber. ¡°What happened,¡± I asked myself. ¡°What happened was you took out the strongest in the school in one punch, with her own element. Making you the new strongest,¡± a feminine voice said.(note to self, her voice was shaky.) I jolted to look around, there was a small girl with blue hair that looked to be in middle school sitting in one of the chairs in my dorm room. ¡°Who are you,¡± I asked I¡¯m Inaba Isono, the president of student council, pleased to make your acquaintance,¡± she said sticking out her hand for a handshake. I took her hand, and shook it hardcore. Her hand was soft, as if it were a child''s a slight bit sweaty as if she were nervous. ¡°What are you nervous for, president.¡± ¡°Huh, why would you assume that I was nervous.¡± ¡°Well for one, your hand was slightly sweaty, your breathing rate changed as you took my hand, and there was a slight tremble in your voice when you first spoke.¡± ¡°Very observant Hayai, and yes I¡¯m nervous! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!! The strongest in the school and I get to meet him!¡± ¡°I would like it if you left my room now.¡± ¡°Alright, now the question I had in mind was, how did you beat her. What power do you posses, Fire?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know,¡± I held out my hand attempting to summon fire, nothing. ¡°Perhaps it was a fluke?¡± ¡°No, I wouldn¡¯t be able to beat her if it was just a fluke.¡± ¡°Well, my true reason for my being here is to tell you that you have a match at 6:30.¡± ¡°What?¡± I asked glancing at the clock in the corner of my room. It was 5:57. ¡°Why didn''t you tell me sooner!¡± ¡°I forgot, hehe.¡± I got out of my bed as I frantically threw on my pants, shirt, and coat and bolted out of the door. I was sprinting all the way to the battle arena. The only problem was it was three kilometers away. This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.Finally after sprinting for 15 minutes I made it. I looked at the big digital clock on the half spherical battle arena, it was 6:21. I only had nine minutes to prepare for the battle. Hell, I didn''t even know who I was facing. I guess I¡¯ll find out. After checking in at the registration desk I made my way over to the pre-battle room. The pre-battle room was luxurious in a sense. It had a couch, a tv, and even a massage chair. I guess it was to comfort the contestants. ¡°Hayai versus Eto Ken. Battle will now commence.¡± Okay, whatever powers he has I¡¯m sure if I could use my power I could beat him. As I walked out of the gate everyone cheered. My opponent had already walked through his gate. He was wearing a black robe and cloth wrapped around his hands. He had grey hair and a death stare. ¡°The battle will begin in 60 seconds.¡± ¡°So, you''re the kid causing all the fuss about the strongest in the school. Weakest to strongest in a day huh, this should be interesting,¡± said Eto. ¡°Well, you''re the random guy I''m facing. Why you got your panties in a bunch.¡± I responded. ¡°I will destroy you, Hayai.¡± ¡°The battle will begin in 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1. Begin.¡± ¡°Come! Uno!¡± A jet black sword appeared out of a ray of light. I see, a weapon summoner. He held it in a battle pose. Then, lunged at me. As he lunged at me, again, time felt as it slowed down. I dodged his swing. I thought about it, and what if, I could copy others powers. I tried to summon a sword. I held out my hand and shouted ¡°Come. Uno,¡± In the fashion that he had said it, with his arm out. A ray of light appeared and the same jet black sword appeared. A sudden flash of swordsmanship, no, his training, taught me all of his moves in a fraction of a second. He stared daggers at me, stunned. His sword was no longer in his hands. It had transferred to my own hands. I then lunged at him, he made no movements and I stabbed him straight through his mid chest. ¡°How,¡± he muttered.¡±That sword was mine, how did you steal it. I smiled ¡°I have no idea.¡±
