CHAPTER 1

On this particular summer day, the cicadas are loud and noisy as Masaomi dismounts from his bicycle, and walks it across the lawn and towards the home of his childhood friend, Kenji. He has not seen Kenji in a little more than a year. But yesterday, word came to him that Kenji had been released from the hospital, and was sent home well enough to finish their recovery. As Masaomi parks his bike, he walks up to the porch and front door. But just as he steps onto the porch, the front door slides open, and who should be standing there in the doorway? None other than an attractive teenage girl, nicely dressed in a sailor suit with a pleated skirt, but with a worried look on her face. As she speaks, Masaomi already knows who she is.

" Yo, Masaomi ! It's been a while .......... "

" Ah.......'bout a year or so.........", replies Masaomi.

" Come on in ! "

The girl is Masaomi's childhood friend, Kenji. Formerly a boy, but now returned from their year long "life changing project" as a pretty teenage girl. Both friends sit down on the floor of the front room. Kenji asks if Masaomi wants to play the usual video game? He says that it is okay, but wonders if she still has it from last year? Kenji says that she had held onto it, and it must be around here somewhere. She gets up and looks for it. She eventually finds it, and gives it to Masaomi to set it up in the playstation for a two players game. She says that in the meantime she will arrange to bring some barley tea for the both of them. Masaomi turns on the flat screen television set, that was already on a news channel. The male news program host is stating in a grim tone---

" .........furthermore, the world-wide problem of declining birth rates is getting worse. The cause is still unknown, but it is clear the number of female children being born has gone down substantially. Around the world efforts are being made to tackle the problem. First-world countries are carrying out experiments to enable young males to bear children. Suitable candidates are being sought---- "

A picture in Kenji's home catches Masaomi's attention. Masaomi looks up to the top of a cabinet wherein there is a picture of two young boys looking into the camera, with their arms around the shoulders of each other. On the right side of the couple is Masaomi, but on the left side of the couple is a boy who now has his face completely obliterated with gray pencil marks. Kenji returns to the front room, just in time to catch the last comments of the news program host. She addresses Masaomi with a dose of sarcasm, saying that if he wants to produce children of his own with her, then he should already know that he has to 'do it' with the 'new and improved' Kenji! Masaomi is quite taken aback, as his face goes expressionless, and his eyes narrow into tiny dots. Then, jolted out of a fog, Masaomi finally replies, telling Kenji not to be stupid, and just shut up and sit down. The video game on the console displays the title of the game, *"ManDragora Quest"*. Kenji sits down on the floor next to Masaomi. She fondles her game controller. Masaomi respectively asks---

" Kenji, are you ............? "

" Am I what ? ", retorts Kenji.

Masaomi is again taken aback by Kenji's attitude, but silently thinks to himself that Kenji sitting on the pillow, wearing a pleated skirt, and yet with her legs spread apart......... But the only comment that he can choke out is---

*" Wow, that's cute! "*

" **Shuddup**, and let's get it on! Press the start button! ", commands Kenji.
