Chapter 6: What it takes to be right! (2)
My cheek hurts...
Sure, I was happy to have a bag of ice to soothe the pain but dang Nana knew how to slap properly.
So while I whined over the perfectly-given slap, the fiery twin pouted as Tearju lectured her for attacking without thinking.
The small group of students were all circling a panicking Rito Yuuki, the guy being harrassed by the very pinkette that had sparked the whole situation.
Not even few hours of literally facing death by hypothermia and she was back with her usual self.. good to know that some insanity cannot be truly cured.
Speaking of insanity, I felt a familiar/unfamiliar giggle behind where I was sitting alone. I froze, took a small breath and turned around to find the cheerful mask of one Mea Kurosaki.
"Hello." She giggled again at my lacking greeting.
"You are the new principal, right? Mortimer-san?" I blinked but nodded at her as she made a step closer.
You know? I think I will have a nice late night jog today. "While I would enjoy talking with you, Kurosaki-san, I think I will bid goodbye and I willgoawayhellobye!"
My tactical retreat was stopped as several blades from her transformation abilities obstacled the way. "I insist! I bet you are a goldmine of funny jokes to hear about!"
"And I think you should desist!"
I saw the particular strand of hair twisting and rushing towards me-*BANG!*
I felt the noise of metal-like things clashing against each other and indeed blades were met with identical ones, the latter coming from yellow strands. "Yami?"
The blonde nodded as her red eyes kept watch on Mea's pouting face. "C'mon, neesan, I just want to know a little more about him."
"Don't touch Morty." The red-head paused a moment before stiffling a giggle. "M-Morty?"
I was about to reply to the nickname that wasn't going to fly after this day, but I was interrupted when I saw a certain orange-head approaching. "Mortimer-sa-aaaan!"
Of course Rito trips while there was some standoff going on. I could already see the trajectory the boy was going to fall and thus I willed my body to disrupt the perverted moment to occur in that particular moment.
It felt like I was back in the field, pouncing at one of the opponents during football. What a nostalgic moment...
Also quite refreshing as I literally threw myself onto the unexpecting teen and pushed him out from actually falling on both Yami's and Mea's body.
He groaned, small damage to his back as he sponged the whole thing. "Yuuki-san, you should watch where you step."
The boy sobered up as he remembered quickly what had happened and bowed slightly. "S-Sorry, Mortimer-san."
I sighed and, as I tried to pick myself up, I barely registered a green-haired missile slamming on my chest. "Mau! Mau!"
There she was, little Celine looking incredibly active even through it was nighttime.. that sounds like the recipe for disaster to me.
I scooped her in my arms as I got up and lulled her. "Look who's there." She giggled as I felt the need to care for this adorable plant child.
"Celine! Don't tackle strangers." Mikan was looking quite tired.
Knowing how much she worked back home after school, she sure was going to miss some precious sleep hours because of Momo's silly plan.
"That's right! I forgot to introduce myself, you lil' thing. I'm Casey Mortimer and you are Celine?"
"Mau!~" She cuddled closer to my chest as I said that. "Nice to meet you then."
"M-Mortimer-san?" I turned to Rito's younger sister with a normal stare. "I-I forgot to present myself." She sighed, trying to calm down from the extremely confusing moment. "I'm Yuuki Mikan, I've heard you are better than your 'predecessor'." She flinched a little at remembering the former principal.
"I assure you I am.. I think." I don't know if the principal from the series had been like that always, but I suppose I was an upgrade compared to how he behaved until his 'early retirement'.
"Moooortyyyyy-ih!" I felt an heavier missile slam on my side as I tried to make some normal chatting with the more mature member of the Yuuki siblings.
"Momo-san!" Mikan was the first one to react to that situation and I would have felt worse if the girl had not put on the clothes Mikado had prepared for her when we entered the building.
"I have several plans to make you eat your shoes, Morty! I will show you that you are wrong and-" I flickered her forehead causing her to recoil as to massage the 'hurting' part. "Owie! Morty, you meanie!"
"It's too late in the night to discuss of that, you brat. You got Yuuki-san here to lose some precious shut-eye with your stunt."
The pinkette froze before noticing that the surprised brunette was a little bit wavering in her stillness. "I- Understood! Then we will go home, get some sleep and then I will beat you-" Another flickering and she understood that it was time to shut up.
"Maaaauu.." I blinked at the sleepy toddler in my arms as I got her in Mikan's hold.
"You better return to your homes, Celine-chan is going to fall like a potato if you don't go now."
We all shared a goodbye before I started to make way towards my flat, ready to wake up in... 5 hours.
That sound very niiiicee~
For the first time in a long time, Momo found herself unable to go and infiltrate Rito-san's bed.
She felt tired, possibly because her body was still recovering from that foolish mistake of hers, and she found her bed to be too much comfy to leave to do some ardous walk to Rito-san's room.
She sighed, giving a quick glance to where Nana was sleeping quietly and she thought how her Harem Plan had started.
A plan to forge a big, happy family before Rito-san became the Emperor of the Galaxy, one where everyone would have had their happy ending.
Momo chided herself for letting her habit of focusing so much on Rito-san hinder other aspects of her massive plan, like her not knowing that her object of affections had been missing his phone since the day before.
She required to study more how to make the girls crushing on her sister's fiancée get closer to the dense teen without making him panic away from the concept
To think it had to be literally an half-stranger to get her to think straight about this and to think that the very reason she wasn't currently sleeping and having this kind of planning the following morning was, how to say this, Morty has abs and she had rested on them.
It was confusing how something that was meant to be sturdy actually felt nice to the touch.. maybe she should get Rito-san to actually go to the Gym and- but then that would have the orange-head's chest go from smooth to too much hard to touch.
What an unnerving topic to face that very moment!
She groaned in her sleep, her tails moving quietly under the covers as she felt a blush creeping while her wandering mind creatively thought about naughty pictures.
Blasted hormones! She cursed in her mind as she tried to remove that very thought from her head.
Maybe she should think bad things about him? Yes, that could work!
She thought how they were enemies in the 'Harem' War and that.. she could make it a bet.
Momo blinked as she realised that indeed she could easily induce the man to accept some kind of challenge with little effort, maybe even get something out of him.
But what she should exactly want from him? He was literally the average principal with several morals and all.
That is why the bet would be easily a safe one, knowing full well that he wouldn't ask anything lewd out of her.
Maybe he would accept an invitation to the massive cerimony of the future wedding?
That sounds like a major stretch, knowing that he would politely accept that anyway, but.. what could she ask about it?
Maybe getting another cuddle?
She paled at even considering it, mostly because it sounded, well, against her whole 'being devote to Rito-san and only Rito-san' mindset, yet.. it fitted for some reason.
It would be just a cuddle, nothing more or less, and it would be just because of the bed.
Yet the more she thought about it, the more she felt bothered from herself.
Why was that very idea keeping her from finding some well-deserved sleep?!
AN
I hereby proclaim the beginning of the 'Harem War'! Will it be logic to beat the dream or will Momo get a cuddle out of this? Keep watching The New Principal to find out!
Review Q&A!
romerolaguado: The reason I didn't do either of that was: 1) Momo going Yandere might happen but it will be for good, stronger reasons; 2) Kidnapping is something that usually happened in the previous seasons because Lala's suitors trying to get Rito killed; 3)I had thought about that path but there is the fact that Momo has faced worse odds and rants, thus I considered that she would be better to take in this big critical deconstruction. Still, thank you for you comment!
