"so...what does one do when one is bored, hmmm?"

She calls herself "Destati". Destiny, fate, revival, realization, awakening. You see, she has never been one to cope well with the concept of 'boredom'. And, quite frankly, she's beginning to get sick of seeing all these various universes in perfect order, running along organized plotlines and smoothly flowing along neat, unambiguous timelines. There's just too much order and perfection. It's been a while since she has craved a...change, of sorts, from this orderly flawlessness, but then again, she has always been a creature of habit. She has always wanted interesting, different things to happen.

Most uncreatively, a creative idea abruptly strikes her...and, well, hasn't making entertainment always been easier than finding entertainment? So she tugs on the strings of fate that keep every universe in order and in check. Specifically, she tugs on the strings of fate wound around every character, and winds them around her own little universe. She toys with these poor anime, manga, and video game characters and orchestrates a grand story of her own, forcing their worlds to collide into her own little dimension.

Enter Esoterrance Academy, set in the fictional town of Azellius, which is located on an unnamed planet in an equally unnamed universe. The place is a perfect mix of western and eastern cultures to accomodate its new inhabitants. In Destati's own twisted plotline, Esoterrance Academy is one of the most prestigious, renowned boarding schools to have graced the world, and, here's the thing: it's predominantly an art school, with a small smattering of normal students who focus on math and the sciences. Oh, and another yet? Every single character's memory is wiped mostly clean and everyone is altered physically so that they're in their high school years again, even if they may retain their mental maturity. Still, in spite of that, everyone has very few memories of their past life. Everyone's human now. No one retains any former powers they may have had. The only things they get to keep are their personality, talents, and perhaps a few experiences...but even then, any other talents they may have had have probably been converted into artistic talent.

Music, art, photography, theater, dance? The school has it all, and it's an almost bloodthirsty competition when it comes to becoming the absolute best, whether it's the honor of being best artist, singer, musician, photographer. But what of the students themselves? Her machinations have left everyone without memories, albeit with the firm conviction that having no memories is nothing peculiar. Destati's arcane magic has left everything in confused shambles, but perhaps it's better off this way...? Better yet, do you hear that fatal fugue, playing sinisterly in the background? Heh, well. The clock is ticking. Only time can tell what will happen next.

In the world of Black Cat, Chronos,
an organization bent on world peace, rules
one third of the world's economy through
underground control of almost every kind of
business. To maintain the balance of the
world, Chronos is essential, and there is the
need for people to protect Chronos. There are
special elite assassins with Orichalcum-made
weapons called the Chrono Numbers who work
for Chronos. When the thirteenth Chrono Number
Train Heartnet, also known as Black Cat, meets
a Sweeper named Saya Minatsuki, she opens his
eyes and helps him see that he has choices as
whether to kill his victims or not. He leaves Chronos
but Creed Diskenth resents the way that Saya
changes the elite assassin's life, so now he is
after them both.

As Train deals with the dangers
in his life, Sven and Eve try and live their
lives normally. Well, as normally as
sweepers’ lives are. Rinslet is also
around… somewhere. You can find
her sneaking around doing different
jobs for different reasons.

What will lie ahead for Train
and Saya? Will Eve and Sven be able
to live their lives peacefully? Where
will Rinslet end up? What about all of
the other sweepers and the civilians
as well? Will Chronos be able to deal
with the loss of one of their numbers?
And what exactly does Creed have up his sleeve?
