Chapter 17: New Semester

MIRACLE GIRL KAKERU

NEW SEMESTER

CHAPTER 17 OF THE MANGA

**Previously**

The story so far---Sho, a typical boy, wants to become a male hero. However, quite accidently, he is given the chance to become a heroine by changing into a girl and accessing Girl Power. So the reckless and restless boy named Sho has decided to fight the monsters and bad guys as a girl named Kakeru. Kakeru is given 'special training' to further femininize her and to reconfigure her personality from male to female. Kakeru has already trained well enough to have killed her first monsters. However, not to rest on her past achievements, Kakeru continues to train in all things feminine almost every day. This includes dressing as and being out in public every day now as a girl. All during the Winter Break, Kakeru was a girl just about all of the time. But now it is the first day back to school for the new school semester. Sho gets up early, dresses for school, but does not realize something is supposedly amiss until they are walking up the school steps and then sitting at their desk.

**This Chapter's Story**

Winter has passed on into Spring, and it is the beginning of the new school term and semester. On the first day of the new semester, Sho inadvertently makes a rather impressive showing to the teacher and all the students in his class. Sho has earlier this morning, without thinking much about it, and probably as a force of habit now, cross-dressed in girl's clothing this morning, and went to school dressed as a girl (this occasionally happens, see Omake 7.5 / Sho does not realize that his DNA code is slowly being rewritten from male to female, see Omake 11.5). Sho is now sitting at his desk, much embarrassed, during the beginning homeroom class. Sho is wearing a pretty, pink, short hemline dress, over the dress a long sleeved sweater, and black tights. Sho even remembered to wear a bra and girl's panties ! Much chit-chat and giggling is going on in the classroom, as Sho is the center of attention. He recalls that he first noticed his girl's outfit as he was going up the steps to the school building, along with Sora. He berates Sora for not telling him sooner about his selection of clothing, but Sora only apologizes, and pleads that she didn't notice either, as Sho has been *dressing most of the time now as a girl.*

The homeroom teacher, Ruike-sensei, enters the classroom to begin the day's activities. She immediately notices the girl sitting at Sho's desk. Ruike-sensei realizes that the girl is Sho, who is cross-dressed today, but only gives Sho a mild rebuke. She carefully and tactfully reminds him that the school's rule is that boys don't come to school dressed in girl's clothes. Nothing more is said. Significantly, the teacher allows Sho to stay in class and in school without any further repercussions. One boy pipes up that this is ridiculous. Hayato, Sho's best friend, in the desk across the aisle, comments to himself that there is *no way* that Sho could have *mistaken girl's clothing for his boy's clothing.* Therefore, this has to be some sort of punishment game or ritual ? Maybe instigated by his younger sister ? Hayato goes on to make note in his mind that Sho certainly looks cute and pretty wearing that dress ! When he first saw her earlier, he was so sure that we had a new girl as a transfer student in this class. Sho is so surpassingly girly now, it is unblieveable !

Sho is engrossed in his own thoughts. This situation that he has gotten himself into is the worst. Now everyone, including the teacher, will think that, will be treated as such, that he is some sort of freak or weirdo. Yet surprisingly, the girl sitting in back of Sho loudly declares to the class that Sho is stunningly cute today, isn't he ? The girl in back of her shouts out that she thinks so, too, unlike a certain boy who today is an absolute jerk (the boy who called Sho ridiculous) ! Like turning on a light switch in a dark room, Sho's mood and attitude is switched around instantaneously. He becomes happy and cheerful at hearing what the girls have just said about him. Sho silently questions himself---are you a boy right now, or a girl ? One girl, however, looks at Sho with a sour face. She is the Student Council President, plus the Class Chairperson of this homeroom class. She silently tells herself that something isn't kosher here, but she can't quite put her finger on it. Is that girl at Sho's desk, actually Sho himself ? What gives ? The teacher begins the day's class.

Soon into the beginning of the class lession, Sho's troubles continue. To add to his misery, he had forgot his textbook for this class subject. Not able to follow along, he asks Hayato if he can scoot his desk next to his, and look on from Hayato's textbook ? Hayato says 'all right'. Now Sho and Hayato are desk to desk, in close proximity to one another. In a while, Hayato notices that a very pleasant, girly scent eminating from Sho. The obvious, noticable scent thrown off by a pretty girl ! Hayato becomes distracted, trying to guess the source of the aroma. Shampoo ? Perfume ? Body powder ? He is quite perplexed. Sho leans over almost touching him, as Sho wants to see the sighted reference in the textbook. Hayato about goes nuts ! Sho so much smells exactly like a girl....no...NO....***NO***! Sho is **a boy** ! Have to remember that ! Every bit of concentration is poured into Hayato's mindset, to try and spiritually distance him from the intoxicating and erotic scent that Sho is drowning himself in. So much so that he doesn't even realize that the teacher has already called upon him to stand up and read. The teacher has to practically scream his name to get his attention. Hayato apologizes to the teacher, and silently rebukes himself for going bananas over the presence and scent of this remarkably pleasant girl next to him !

Later, during mid-day break, a small group of girls come to Sho, and insist that they be allowed to put Sho's hair up into pigtails, held with adorable, tiny bows. This they do. One of the girls, her own hair in twin tails, remarks how insanely girly and attractive Sho is right now. Another girl insists that Sho start tomorrow by coming to school again dressed as a girl, and do so every single school day from now on. She has tons of extra cute clothes to donate to Sho ! A third girl wants Sho to come to her house and try on her stash of cute girly clothes that she will give away to him. Sho meakly says to forget about doing any and all of that.

Afterwards, walking in the hallway with another boy, Sho confesses that the girls are treating him like a celebrity. Enought of that ! The boy walking with Sho remarks, that sounds like something that girls would naturally do; they are girls, after all ! The boy with Sho, named Yu Taneichi, reveals that he personally thinks that today, Sho is truly pretty and noticably attractive. Yu then makes a surprise confession to Sho. Yu has a bit of a yearning to experience what Sho is doing today, namely for him to also present as a cute girl. Seriously ? You would like doing this kind of stuff ? That's rich ! Yu says that he will consider it when the right opportunity comes, and dress as a girl for the first time, maybe at school. Sho points out how embarrassing that could turn out to be. Look at me today ! Red cheeks all day long.

Suddenly, the boy with the burr haircut, the boy who earlier had called Sho 'ridiculous', comes up to Sho from behind, and flips up his short-hemline dress, to have a look at Sho's panties. Fortunately, Sho's black tights are covering his panties, so there was nothing to see. However, Sho barks out, **"What the hell was that ?"** The boy, named Sasaki, flips Sho's dress again, this time holding onto the dress hemline and keeping it raised up above his behind. Sasaki bellows out that if Sho is going to wear a girl's dress, you should expect this kind of teasing and treatment ! Sho yells back to "STOP IT AND LET GO !" Yu also tells Sasaki to "STOP RIGHT NOW !" Sasaki further yells that---

*"Girls who are gonna fuss about their skirts being flipped up to show their panties, should be made to ......."*

Sasaki never finishes his comment. This because Hayato comes up to him from behind, grabs his shoulder, and forcefully yanks Sasaki away from Sho. "QUIT SAYING SOMETHING LIKE THAT, YOU MISERABLE JERK !!! We all have been classmates for over six years now. You should know that Sho doesn't ever do anything crazy or weird. And today is no exception. Sho must have his good reasons for being a girl today !" Sasaki twists away and runs down the hallway, yelling for all to hear that Sho is a freak ! Sho collapses to the floor in mild shock. Yu kneels down next to Sho and asks him if he is okay ? He is, just shaken up a bit. Hayato looks toward the fleeing Sasaki, and remarks that he is a real moron. Sho says that the guy is hopeless.

Conversation now becomes a bit serious. Sho asks Hayato if he thinks that he, Sho, is weird or freaky for dressing as a girl ? Are you, Hayato, going to freak-out over me, too ? Hayato remarks that it obviously has been a little weird. Sho feels a shudder ripple through his body. Yet Hayato expressly states that he, personally, will not ever shun or loath Sho for however he/she dresses, or for doing girly things ! Or anything else like that ! And he will never dispise or look down upon you, Sho, for how you emotionally present yourself as a girl. Hayato leans down, puts Sho's arm around his shoulder, raises Sho up, and wraps his arm around Sho's back. "Let's walk back to class, together." Yu says that he agrees with everything Hayato has said, that he also would never disparage or look down upon Sho for wanting to be a girl. Sho is silent, as he walks with Hayato's aid. Yu walks along side of her. Nevertheless, Sho is grateful that he has at least two loyal allys, Hayato and Yu, to help him in his own understanding as to why he is becoming a girl.
