Later in the day, the girls met up with the rest of the gang in the newspaper club headquarters. As they gathered around the club table, Kurumu explained the dire situation at hand.
"Hm, this does sound like a problem," Tsukune said pointlessly.
"Yes, we've established that," Kurumu deadpanned.
"I say we drop washtubs on their moms' heads the second they walk in!" Yukari suggested, pumping her magic wand into the air.
"I like that plan," Mizore said coolly.
Kurumu shot her a nasty look. Mizore was unfazed.
"What? Don't even try to tell me it doesn't sound a little appealing," she continued.
"We could keep your mothers distracted the whole day. Keep them busy around the school while you two are off somewhere else," Tsukune offered.
"I like that idea too," the snow queen stated.
"Mizore!" her girlfriend scolded.
"Hey, you're the one who said we needed a plan."
"If we avoid our mothers there will be hell to pay later," Kurumu clarified.
"She's right, desu desu," Yukari agreed, nodding her head.
Now it was timid little Moka's turn to speak up.
"Why don't you just tell your moms the truth? The two of you are together now," she said simply.
This time, Mizore joined Kurumu in glaring at the vampire.
"Um, Moka, you saw what happened the last time," Tsukune started. "Mizore's mom and Kurumu's mom tore the place apart. They didn't stop until your vampire form went and taught them a lesson."
Kurumu stood up from her chair and pointed her finger accusingly at Moka.
"I knew it! She's trying to get me killed! She still holds a grudge against me because I loved Tsukune so much!" she shouted.
"I'm sitting right here," Mizore said icily.
"I can see that. …Oh! Right! You're the one I love now!" Kurumu sheepishly corrected herself. Mizore rolled her eyes.
"See, that's exactly what I'm saying," Moka elaborated. "You two love each other. Isn't that all your parents want? For you guys to find someone you care about?"
"No," both girls answered at the same time. Moka frowned.
"Why don't you let me talk to them tomorrow?" she volunteered. "I'll explain the whole thing to them and then afterwards they can meet up with you."
The room fell silent as everyone contemplated the idea.
"Moka does have a way with parents," Yukari said.
Kurumu sat back down in her chair and then leaned over until her head rested against Mizore's.
"I'd rather our parents didn't find out at all," she groaned.
"Well, if Moka wants to try, I guess we could let her," the Queen of Ice finally conceded.
"Do you really think so?" Kurumu asked her.
"It sounds like suicide, I'll admit that. But one way or another, Moka somehow always ends up being the mediator, so she has the best chance of keeping our moms in check," Mizore explained. Moka nodded proudly.
"So it's settled! Moka is in charge of Operation Mom Control!" Yukari said excitedly.
"Alright, that's the plan," Tsukune said as he stood up. "Now we have to go help set up for tomorrow, so let's make the school look awesome for Mizore and Kurumu's moms!"
"Yay!" Yukari and Moka cheered in unison.
