Kazuya Takahashi (高橋和也), a tall, once-troubled rebellious kenjutsu practitioner from Ecruteak City, moves into the small Kantonian town of Melody Heights (諧調町内) with his family to start anew.On his first day of high school, he bumps into a girl relatively close to his height named Asami Hasegawa (長谷川麻美). They share a lighthearted conversation before heading off.This is a rewrite of my previous story 'Tales of the Ghost,' which has elements that I don't think would fit within the lore I've currently established (such as Kazuya's origins). Some of the chapters have been extended from their original physical/Google Docs version, and some stories have been replaced outright.…

[ THIS IS A FICTIONAL SERIES WITH FANTASY ELEMENTS. PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT ANYTHING DESCRIBED. DRIVE SAFELY AND RESPONSIBLY. THANK YOU! :) ]There are some people in the Pokemon world who battle without Pokemon, whether for competitive sport or for recreational fun. Some of these people battle on the streets in their cars, regardless of legality. The two most popular forms of street motor sports is touge (mountain racing) and wangan (highway racing).Yutaro Watanabe (渡辺佑太朗) is an ordinary delivery boy for his dad's mochi business. Every other night, he drives up Mount Hideaway to the hotel at the top, and then back down. He has to be quick with his deliveries so the mochi doesn't go too warm, so he's built an unconventional way of driving fast.His best friend, Akua Enatsu (江夏青水) is an utaite singer, a trainer, and a very big car enthusiast. She's tried to get Yutaro into cars before, but he's constantly told her he knows what he need to know about cars-they take you places and they're well-engineered.Little do the two friends know what kind of 'secondary world' they'll suddenly immerse themselves in.…
