Well, Here Ya Go. Filler Chapter 1/3. Sorry, But All The Ideas For The Next Plot Development Chapter Haven't Formed Together, But They Will Soon Enough! Until That Happens, Enjoy My Little TidBits Of Random Nothingness! Chapter 14! Enjoy.

I sat in class, staring out of the window. The teacher was babbling on about something that I really didn't care about. There was too much on my mind for me to think about school, even though my grades weren't as good as they could be. The main think that I was focused on was Ms. Asahina's company. Them, and their "death cannon", though Koizumi told me that it wasn't anything like that. I couldn't wrap my brain around the fact that they would go to such lengths just to give a time machine to, of all people, Haruhi. And the fact that Ms. Asahina was the one that attacked him in the first place made it even harder.

Although everything that happened in the daily activities of the SOS Brigade were nothing but lies, I still felt like I had grown closer to all of my fellow club members, even Koizumi and Haruhi, and I liked to think that they had done the same. So the thought of us attacking each other for any reason was almost mind boggling, even if it wasn't technically between us. The future Ms. Asahina attacked Koizumi, but it was still Ms. Asahina. Dammit all…

I took a quick peek at Haruhi, who must have fallen into another one of her moods. She was staring out the window just like I was, with her unusually usual melancholy look. I couldn't help but wonder what she was thinking about.

Lunch was pretty normal, just like class was. Taniguchi was rambling on about some hot chick he was talking to, who probably wasn't in to him at all. Kunikida just smiled and listened. Haruhi had gone somewhere again, which didn't surprise me at all. I figured that after class was over and we were at the club room, she would be her usual, eccentric self. That's what I thought, but it wasn't the case.

After classes ended, I schlepped on over to the Literary club room. Haruhi never came back to class after lunch, so I knew what I was going to hear when I knocked that day.

"Come in." When the door opened, it revealed two very bored looking girls, Haruhi and Yuki.

"Hey, you two. Koizumi and Ms. Asahina aren't here yet?" Haruhi shook her head.

"No, Koizumi couldn't come to school today. He had to stay home to recover after what happened two days ago." Right, the whole frozen in snow thing. "I don't know about Mikuru, though." I decided not to say anything else, since Haruhi seemed to still be in her mood. I could already tell that on that particular day, I was going to be bored out of my mind.

About an hour passed by and nothing had happened. I was still sitting in my chair, rocking backwards on the back legs, Yuki was reading a book, and Haruhi was clicking away at the computer. Ms. Asahina didn't show up, so I figured Haruhi was going to subconsciously use her powers again. But from what I could tell, she didn't.

"Well, I'm going to head out. Whoever leaves last should lock up." She slung her bag over her shoulder and walked out the door. Now it was just me and Yuki, all alone. One of the better times that I had in the club room.

"Are going to leave too, Yuki?" She shook her head.

"No. I wish to read this book a bit longer."

"Ok."

"Will you be leaving as well?"

"No, I'd like to enjoy the peace for a while."

"I see." That 'I see' again… Enjoying the peace was just a cover. The real reason I was staying was because I wanted to walk her home, it just seemed less cheesy this way. Yuki knew the real reason, without a doubt, but whatever.

So we sat in the almost freezing room. The heater was already on, but that didn't help much. There was no Koizumi, so there were no board games to play. There was no Ms. Asahina, so there was no tea to drink either. As I was reveling in my boredom, a thought occurred to me. Why wasn't she here today?

"Hey… Yuki…"

"Hmm?"

"Ms. Asahina… why do you think she wasn't here today?" Oh and that "hmm?" was too cute.

"I do not know."

"Don't you think it's a little weird? I understand why Koizumi isn't here, but why wouldn't she show up…?"

"Perhaps she has returned to the future for mission briefing."

"Mission briefing, huh?" That seemed just as logical as any other answer I could have come up with, so I just let it go. It wasn't any of my business. Of course, I did go to Yuki's place when she was absent, but that was more abnormal than Ms. Asahina being absent. After all, she was a normal human. Yuki was an alien, or rather a Data Entity, so she couldn't get sick.

No, Yuki couldn't get sick. But the rest of the SOS Brigade could, and one of us already was. Koizumi was in his home right now. Or, what I thought was his home. I had never been to his house - in fact I had never even thought that he may or may not have a home in the first place - but I assumed that he had to be resting somewhere. My guess was that he had the same arrangement as Yuki, and probably as Ms. Asahina as well. Their companies lease and apartment or some kind of home for them to live in. Of course, knowing Koizumi's company, he probably lives in a freaking mansion.

At about that time, I was still sitting in my chair, leaning back and looking out of the window. I wished I had some tea to drink, but I wouldn't have been able to finish it anyway. Because that was when Haruhi, once again, almost knocked the door down as she barged in. From the way she looked, her mood had passed, seemingly because of her latest plan.

"Guys, good. You're both still here! Look who I found!" With her almost immediate speech just as she walked through, I didn't even have time to see the girl standing behind her.

"Uh, hi, everyone." Ms. Asahina stood behind Haruhi, looking kind of shy and awkward. She wasn't even in her uniform. "I'm… sorry for being absent today, but I, had some stuff to take care of."

"Some stuff? Why do you try to hide it Mikuru? Get this! She was at Koizumi's place taking care of him!"

"Ah! Haruhi!" She took a glance at me, blushed, and looked away. I heard a book slam behind me and looked back to see a less than pleased Yuki. "Um, anyway. Koizumi asked me to bring all of you guys over. He said he wanted some company." Great, that creep wants us to go to his house? I bet Yuki saw this coming already.

"So, we're all going to hang out at Koizumi's place for a while!"

And so, we all headed out for Koizumi's house. I'll admit that I wasn't totally against the idea of visiting him. I was the one that saved his life, so it was only natural that I was going to have to see if he was still alive. I wouldn't tell Yuki that though. She didn't seem entirely too happy about going. I think she wanted to spend time with me. Which would have been too cute.

As we all walked down the street, I found out that I don't only drag my feet when I walk to the clubroom. I guess I tend to walk like that when I go somewhere I'd rather not be. Not that I was so rude that I would refuse an invite to a sick friend's house. It's just the fact that it was Koizumi's house. Koizumi may have been the only guy I actually spent any time with outside of school whatsoever, but that didn't mean that I ever wanted to go his house. That's just wrong.

"So, Ms. Asahina. How far away is Koizumi's house?"

"Oh, it's not that much longer of a walk. I'm sure he'll be happy to see all of you."

"This is going to be so much fun!"

"Calm down, Haruhi. Remember, Koizumi is sick. We're not going there and bugging him. He might need some sleep." I looked at the girl that had completely ignored my previous statement as she jumped onto Ms. Asahina again. I must admit that I was hopeful. Hopeful that she would've admitted some sort of feelings for Koizumi when he got hurt. She looked genuinely concerned when I told her he had been hurt, and that was before she even knew it was snowing. But I guess that was just worrying for a friend.

Shaking that last thought out of my head, I began to wonder why Ms. Asahina went out of her way, and even skipped school, just to see if Koizumi was alright. Maybe she felt sorry, and I didn't blame her, I would have felt bad too. From what I hear, she doesn't even like her company. She only follows orders because it's actually herself that is giving them. Anybody would blindly, and loyally, follow their own future self, but if it could actually happen, they'd start to have doubts too.

"Here we are." I was so deep in thought that I didn't even notice that we had arrived. In fact, I almost kept walking ahead. I looked over the small wall-like fence and saw an ordinary house. It was a traditional Japanese style home, with the front door that slid open, and had a shrine next to it.

"Wow, Koizumi sure lives in an old style home." Didn't I just say it was called traditional? "So, do we just go right in?" You don't. Ms. Asahina might, though.

"Yes, follow me please." She walked on into the yard and up to the door, with us following close behind. "Koizumi lives alone, so there is no need to worry about making an intrusion." Somehow, I doubt Haruhi would care either way.

I stepped into the house of my fellow schoolmate and slave to Haruhi's every command, and smelt one of the most heavenly aroma's I had ever smelled. It was like a breeze from heaven coming down into my nose. I guess Ms. Asahina Is cooking something for him. We walked through the small entrance way, down a hallway, made a left turn, walked down another hallway, stopped in the middle, made a right up the stairs, and down another hallway, and then stopped again at the third door on the left. Ms. Asahina slowly opened the door a peeked inside.

"Excuse me, Koizumi? I'm back." Through the small crack in the door, I could see Koizumi sitting up in his bed.

"Oh, Ms. Asahina, welcome back. Oh, and everyone else, hello." He coughed slightly. "I'm sorry for not being able to come to school today. As you can see, I'm not in a very good condition." That was about the understatement of the year. His shirt was unbuttoned, showing bandages wrapped around him, starting from his waist and going to the bottom of his chest. His right arm was in a sling and a cast. His face was mostly untouched, except for a small bandage on his cheek, and another going around his head. I walked in and heard the sliding door click shut behind me.

"You gave us quite a scare there, Koizumi. You sure you're alright?"

"I'm feeling much better now, thank you. How about you?" I leaned up against the wall next to his window.

"Why wouldn't be okay? I'm not the one that got mugged and left for dead in the snow."

"No, but you did come out in the snow all that way to save me."

"Well, even if I wasn't feeling a hundred percent, you would be more important." I felt like a schmuck talking like that, but it was true. He was out in the snow after getting beat up by a chick.

"Still…" I looked at Haruhi, who had her hand on her chin, and her eyes deep in thought. "That must have been one serious mugger to go to the trouble of hurting you so much. Maybe… Maybe it wasn't a normal mugger!"

"Wh- What are you talking about, Haruhi?"

"It was on the day of the party. And they attacked a member of my Brigade. They must have planned the attack perfectly."

"Maybe… it was a rival faction, trying to get our time machine blueprints. I am the one that has them after all."

"That's it! Koizumi, where did you put them?" Great, Koizumi's is gonna lead her on a wild goose chase for this 'rival faction', isn't he?

"They're in the far drawer over there." That was just about the time that I realized that Yuki was oddly quiet, like even for her. There wasn't any noise coming from her general area at all. If it wasn't for the fact that she right there next to me, I might not have even realized she was there at all. She wasn't reading a book. She was just sitting there in a chair, not moving. She looked really bored. I slid myself down the wall to get eye level with her.

"Hey, Yuki?" I spoke in a hushed tone. Haruhi and Koizumi were too busy discussing what could have actually happened to him to notice. "Everything okay?"

"Everything is fine."

"You just looked kind of bored is all. Why don't you read a book?"

"I only brought the one book with me, and I have finished reading it."

"Oh…" I slid back up into a slouched stand against the wall. "Then… why don't we go buy you a new one?" She looked over at me with her cute, big eyes, and they almost sparkled.

"That'd be nice."

While Kyon and Yuki go out in search of a book, Ms. Asahina is going to perform a search of her own. And Haruhi and Koizumi? They're going to stay in his room and figure this new mystery out. Except, there isn't a mystery to solve, so we aren't going to focus on them. And Kyon and Yuki at the library? Nah, too boring. No, next Chapter is about Mikuru and Mikuru (That's right. There's gonna be TWO). Until then, I bid you adue. Until next time~
