Chapter 36 FIRST NIGHT'S END: SECOND NIGHT'S PASSING, THIRD NIGHT'S CHANCE

"What?" Misaka Mikoto asked bewilderedly. "What the hell are you talking about you idiot?"

"Mikoto, I'm serious! Your eyes…they're blue! As in really blue! Like your electricity!" Touma said, shaking her body, staring deeply into her eyes as he did, making her blush.

"HEY! Are you mistaking me for some other girl in your harem?!"

"W-WHAT?! No of course not! It's just….your eyes! They're really blue!"

Touma said in a panic, having a bad feeling about all of this. Mikoto looked like she was about to say something, but she suddenly clutched her head before falling to the ground. Quickly enough, Touma had caught her just in time. Laura Stewart came rushing over to them.

"Please move aside, Kamijou-kun." She ordered.

"But I—"

"I could not care less about what you have to say Kamijou-kun, hurry up and check on the other angels, I'll take care of Misaka-chan." She said laying Mikoto down, who was half conscious. Unwillingly, Touma had to let go of her hand and rush over to the three sleeping angels.

"Damn it…If something happens to Mikoto, I swear to god, I might just beat the living sh-t out of that b-st-rd…"

He muttered angrily as he placed their bodies parallel to one another, facing upwards. First was Josephine, then Cielo, then Sumine Mika.

"T…Tou…ma..k..kun?"

A voice mumbled softly, making Touma snap his head, only to be met with the hazy eyes of Sumine Mika.

"Ah? You're awake, Sumine-san. You sh—"

"Touma…kun…I…I'm sorry…." She said, closing her eyes, as she took deep and heavy breaths. "Mi..saka-chan…is a…great…girl… I'm sorry…for…trying to …take her…away…from you…"

"That doesn't matter right now." He said, heaving a sigh. "For now, Mikoto is alive, you're alive and everyone else is. So—"

"No…that's not true…" Mika said, making Touma stop. "The transfer…of our p-powers…was…completed. Misaka-chan…has all of our angelic essences. All of us…will soon fade…away…"

"W-wait?! All of us?! What do you mean by that?!"He asked in a raised toe out of frustration. "Answer me Sumine-san!"

"Kamijou-kun!" Laura shouted. "Don't stress her! She should rest as much as she can after what happened!"

"I know that but-!" Touma shouted back, before turning to Mika, who was smiling at him. "Agh, damn it!"

"H-hurry…and defeat…Father, T-Touma-kun." She said, looking over to Accelerator and Friedrich, who was battling with Mil before taking something out of her pocket and placing it in Touma's hands. "Hurry…before Misaka-chan…loses it…because then…it will be too late."

And then she passed out. Touma, who was completely confused, could only shake his head, trying to clear it off. He opened up his palm, his eyes widening with what he saw. It was the necklace he had given Mikoto on their first anniversary.

"What the-? Miko—HAH?!"

But Touma was stopped when he saw Laura holding Mikoto down as she thrashed her arms around wildly. Without another word, Touma stood up and ran to her side.

"O-oi! What's happening to her?!"

"I don't know either, but it's something she can overcome, BY HERELF."

'What's that supposed to mean Laura Stewart? I'll help—" He said, about to grab one of Mikoto's smashing hands, before Laura had pushed him aside. "What the hell?!"

"I'm sorry Kamijou-kun!" Laura said holding Mikoto down again. She looked back at him, her face obvious with pity. "But as I said, YOU must NOT interfere at all costs. This is Misaka-chan's fight, let her battle it alone."

"You can't just expect me to-!"

"T-Touma?" Mikoto's voice suddenly said, making both of them look at her. Her eyes still showed that she was in pain, as bullets of sweat could be seen around her face and as her chest rose and drowned in an erratic pace.

"It's okay…I'll be okay…" she panted as Laura let her go. "This…this is nothing. But please, if we're gonna fight HIM, please try not to hurt him too bad? Hiromi is still in him."

"What do you mean by 'we'? You're not gonna fight Mikoto. You're going to stay here with Laura Stewart and all the other angels until this fight Is over." He said standing up.

"What the hell are you talking about, you narcissistic b-st-rd?!" Mikoto shouted after him, snapping her body upright, causing a huge headache, and all she could do was hold her down her head, easing it by the tiniest bit.

"Your eyes…They're blue." Touma muttered as his back faced her. He gripped his hands tight, her necklace grasped and forgotten with it. "The last time I saw them like that was when you became the Angel of Death four years ago. I'm not taking any chances here." He said dashing forward through the shrubs of the park, about to join the battle between Friedrich, Accelerator and Mil.

"Touma!" Mikoto shouted after him. "DAMN IT TOUMA! GET YOUR BUTT BACK HERE NOW!" She shouted again, but knew how futile her efforts were. Her head throbbed again, but she just suppressed it, forcing herself to stand up, though sitting was already much of a pain for her.

"That's useless, Misaka-chan." Laura said as she sat properly beside Mikoto's struggling figure.

"And you think I don't know that?!"

"I'm very well aware of what's happening to your body. I know its current state and what will become of it if you plan on using any of your strength to fight. It's not a very pretty picture." She said in a stern tone. Mikoto momentarily stopped, before she tried once more to stand, only to fall back on her butt,

"And you didn't bother to tell that idiot?" she said forcing her body up with her arms and knees. "You knew and yet you STILL give him hope?!"

"His hope is not something that I can break Misaka-chan, only you can do it. but I don't see you making any moves to do so. You're dying an—"

"SHUT UP!" Mikoto shouted. "If you speak any louder or any more, he might hear it, and if he does, you have no idea of what I can do to you." She muttered grimly, as her hundredth attempt on standing up finally succeeded, though she still wobbled more than necessary.

"Do you really plan on doing this, Misaka-chan?" Laura called after her as she stood up herself; Mikoto looked at her as her hand laid on tree trunks as she walked for support. "Do you really plan on doing this to yourself, to Kamijou-kun?"

"This is my last chance. " Mikoto said as she moved forward. "This is my last chance to set his life straight, and I'm not letting it pass."

She said moving on forward, despite losing her balance too many times, she still pressed onwards. Before a question came to mind.

"Laura-san was it?" Mikoto asked without turning back. "Are…Are my eyes really blue right now?"

"Yes, and they spark with something more than just colors Misaka-chan."

"That's all I need to know."

She said trudging on. She heard the crash and breaking sound go louder and louder. Despite the searing pain in her body and the loud banging noises and screams inside her head, she still kept herself going.

'If my eyes are blue, then that just makes it easier. To hell with what happens to me, if I can at least save him and my home, I'll be happy. I can….leave happy.'

"Do you think I'd forgive you for everything you've done, eh Miliahelm Von Gurbent?" Friedrich said as he walked closer to him, the Sword of St. Michael glinting dangerously in his hands. "After everything you've done to me, to Em, to Kamijou-kun and to everyone else?"

"AND WHY SHOULD I CARE ABOUT YOU?!" Mil laughed manically. "I WILL NOT GIVE A SH-T! I WILL NEVER GIVE A SH-T! AHAHAHA! Ahahahaha..ha….ha…huh…NOOOO! WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?! NOOOO! AHAHAHAHAHA!"

Mil continued to laugh and cry all so suddenly, making Friedrich raise an eyebrow at him. Accelerator clicked his tongue.

"Sh-t. This guy has gone completely f-ck-ng nuts. I don't wanna have to deal with a f-ck-ng b-st-rd like him."

"Miliahelm Von Gurbent has lost his sanity long ago Accelerator." Touma said appearing from behind. "The sanity he's losing now isn't his, its Aizawa's."

"Ah, f-ck-ng hero. You finally decided to stop your f-ck-ng gay sh—t with the dumb ass Railgun?"

"Don't mind him Kamijou-kun. I understand why you had to leave us to deal with this nutcase. How's Misaka-chan?" Friedrich asked giving Accelerator an exasperated glance, as he tried to be reassuring towards Touma.

"Her eyes are blue." He answered shortly. Friedrich's eyes widened, before he simply nodded and patted Touma's back, understand what he meant.

"She'll be okay. We just have to find a way to reverse the spell. But only if we get this jack ass to straighten his head first."

"Yeah, good luck with that. I f-ck-ng tried to crack his skull open and he still didn't budge. That d-psh-t's a total cuckoo clock."

"Then let me try." Touma said confidently, walking towards Mil who was laughing and crying alternately by the second, LITERALLY.

"But Kamijou-kun! How ? As our fellow pedo said just now, we can't get him to crack!" Friedrich's words gave him a one way ticket to AcceleratorVille , where he was welcomed by a few punches to the gut, matched with a few vector changes. Touma ignored the two and he stood right in front of Mil, towering above him.

"Stand up, Aizawa Hiromi."

He muttered, stopping Accelerator and Friedrich from their little catfight. Mil turned his head eerily towards Touma and faced him.

"I said stand up Aizawa! I know you're there so stop being a coward and stand up already you b-st-rd!"

"Aizawa Hiromi is no—"

"I may be an idiot but I'm not dense. I know how much you love Mikoto, and I can feel how much you care for her. Miliahelm has completely lost his sanity; he wouldn't have any power over you anymore, especially now that we cut off the ley lines." Touma said, but Mil only dropped his head.

"Mikoto's gonna die." Touma said bitterly, biting his lip and gripping his hands tighter than ever before. "She's gonna die, I know that. But we can stop it, Aizawa. Only you and I can stop it. So stand up and fight me! You deserve a few goon punches to the face for what you did to Mikoto and the other girls! But I know that you can't truly break free from Miliahelm, so stand up you jack ass and fight me!"

"But I—"

"I don't care! Be a man and fight for the woman you love you idiot!"

"But Miko's gonna choose you Kamijou!" Hiromi shouted. Tou knew, right from his tone, that he was talking to the real Aizawa Hiromi. "She'll choose you."

"You won't know until we try it, Aizawa. You're her best friend that loved her right from the beginning. I'm the b-st-rd who hurt her. Not much of a choice to make."

"So…if she chooses me…then…"

"I won't." Touma said, reaching out his hand to him. "I won't stop her happiness Aizawa, that's just how much I love her. If she chooses you, I can only accept it and wish you both the best. But for now, I want to do everything I can to save the girl I love, and I know you do too."

Hiromi slowly reached for his hand, and Touma smiled. Mil smirked, before a white beam emerged from his hand, hitting Touma in the abdomen, sending him flying backwards.

"Kamijou-kun!" Friedrich shouted, running after him, as Accelerator had a glaring contest with Miliahelm.

"So the f-ck-g b-st-rd is back then? " Accelerator remarked. "This is good. This way, I have a legit reason for decapitating you, you f-ck-r."

"I'm sorry Accelerator-san, but I have no interest in you, the only person I want to fight is Kamijou Touma and if you refuse, I'll kill all the angels. You may have succeeded in freeing them, but there's one vital mistake to your plan."

"What the hell are you talking about?" Touma asked as he sat up.

"You just made them all vulnerable. Now that they're out of the Heavenly Centrifuge, all their power is concentrated on one place. If I kill my pretty little Miko, then they'll all be dead."

"Try doing that and your world will be damned, Miliahelm Von Gurbent."

"Oooh, how scary. Care to demonstrate that?" Mil aid as he dashed forward to Touma, sending out snakes, which Touma managed to dodge in time by rolling over.

"Playing dog now are we? Why don't I teach you a few more tricks?"Mil shouted as he sent out more snakes. He laughed manically as they made their way towards him, not even realizing that a lamppost was being chucked at him. After hitting him square in the face, Mil spewed out blood, before looking over to the lamppost culprit.

"You know," Accelerator said with a smile. 'When annoying b-st-rds like you suddenly show up then tell me that they're not interested in fighting me, I just get so pissed you know?"

"So you chuck people with lampposts when you're pissed? How weak Accelerator-san."

"I would've chucked an entire f-ck-ng building at you if only there were one you d-psh-t!"

"Then try chucking this then!" Friedrich said throwing the Sword of St Michael at Mil, but sadly, he dodged it.

"Hah! Where were you aiming that at you pathetic Guardian?!" Mil mocked. Friedrich only smirked.

"Look behind you, you moron."

Mil did as he was told and saw Accelerator with a sadistic smile; his hands raised perpendicular to his body. Mil followed the direction of his hand and saw that the Sword was flying towards him.

"DIE YOU F-CK-NG B-ST-RD!" Accelerator shouted with a grim smile. But when the sound of breaking glass was heard, it turned into a scowl. "WHAT THE F-CK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?! F-CK-NG HERO?!"

Even Frie was surprised on why their surprise tag team attack didn't work. Touma stood behind Mil, his hand bleeding, as it was stretched towards the direction the sword was moving at earlier.

"Why did you use Imagine Breaker Kamijou-kun?!"

"That wasn't Imagine Breaker." Touma said in a low voice, barely audible. "Reality Bender."

It was only through his words did Friedrich and Accelerator understood what just happened. The sword was nowhere to be seen, and yet Touma's arm was bleeding profusely.

"YOU IDIOT!" Accelerator shouted. "You made the f-ck-ng sword go into your f-ck-ng arm?!"

"HE WHAT?!" Friedrich shouted after him. "But that's impossible! The Holy Sword of St. Michael can only pierce through…e-evil…beings…" A sudden wave of realization hit them both.

"I'm not…really evil by myself…but…the Dragon King is. He's sleeping inside of me. The more I use him, the more evil by nature I become." Touma explained as he staggered backwards. "I hate this guy to his guts too, but his body still belongs to Mikoto's best friend. That's something…that I could never replace, even with my life."

"Have you gone completely insane?!" Friedrich shouted. "If little Miss Railgun can see you know sh—"

"Oh I see him alright." Sounds of rustling were heard as Mikoto appeared from the shadows, wobbling in her steps. "Being stupid as always, really Touma…"

She said looking over to Touma, her face showing signs of immediate crying.

"Mikoto, why are you—"

"Ah, Miko. So nice of you to come back." Mil said, sending out three golden snakes, locking Frie, Accelerator and Touma to nearby trees. "But you're a little late than planned though."

"PLANNED?!" Touma exclaimed. Mikoto gave him a sideways glance before hobbling over to Mil's side.

"Sorry. Thanks to your hell ride I had trouble getting myself together. Don't blame me for the delay." Mikoto said with no complaint as Mil took her hand and licked the top of it, disgusting and pissing Touma off at the same time.

"Get your f-ck-ng hands off her Miliahelm, Aizawa or whoever b-st-rd you are!"

"Oh don't say that Kamijou. Didn't you say that you'd accept defeat if she chose me over you? Now don't be such a sour grape." Mil said smugly as he wrapped his arms around Mikoto's waist, pulling her closer towards him. Mikoto still didn't react.

"This is sh-t Mikoto! What the hell has gotten into you?! I would accept it if you chose Aizawa, but HIM?! Snap out of it! I'm begging you!" He pleaded, but Mikoto still remained emotionless. Her blue eyes didn't do anything to help at all. "No…no…no. this isn't happening! For god's sake! You…goddamit Mikoto!"

Touma said banging his head forward, causing his earpiece to drop to the ground. Due to its fall, its loudspeaker button got pressed.

"-Jou-senpai?! I heard you call Onee-sama's name!" came the voice of the twin tailed girl from Judgment, Mikoto's eyes widened and grew teary. "Kamijou-senpai!"

"K-Kuroko?" Mikoto muttered lowly. An idea popped into Touma's head.

"Shirai-san!" He shouted. "I need you to listen! Mikoto is right in front of the earpiece! She's planning on doing something stupid again! You need to stop her!"

"Onee-sama is-? Onee-sama! What on earth are you planning this time?!" Kuroko shouted from the side.

"Miko, that thing's annoying. Break it for me will you?" Mil cooed, snuggling his head to Mikoto's. Mikoto flinched, before slowly walking over to the earpiece.

"Shirai-san! Say something!" Touma shouted.

"I..I don't know what's happening right now, and I highly doubt that any of you will explain it to me!" Kuroko shouted, as Mikoto raised her foot, about to step on the earpiece. "But for once in your life, please think of your own happiness Onee-sama!" her words made Mikoto stop.

"Miko, time is ticking off you know." Mil said impatiently.

"B-but I..I…"

"Onee-sama…Mikoto nee-sama!" Something inside Mikoto stirred upon hearing her name being called like that. "Mikoto nee-sama has done so many great things for Academy City. Yes, you vandalize vending machines and cleaning robots, and yes you always meddle with Judgment business, but that's only because you love Academy City! You are strong and prideful, but you're also soft when it comes down to it."

"B-but..I ran away…" Mikoto muttered, tears threatening to fall from her eyes.

" You never want to hurt anyone around you, that's why you ran away right?! All this time, you've been thinking of our happiness and not yours! But don't you realize it yet?! YOU ARE OUR HAPPINESS MIKOTO NEE-SAMA!" All that could be heard was Kuroko's muffled cries. "Your smile...it's what brings us happiness. Even though you always shock me because of my persistence, you never drove yourself away from me…you're very kind…Onee-sama."

"Mikoto?' Touma called out, making Mikoto look at him. "Those are the words she's been dying to tell you. When you were gone, all that she could do was worry over you. Would you be willing to turn away from all of this? From all of us?"

"B-but I—"

"That's right!" Uiharu's voice sounded as well. "Misaka-san! You need to come back to us! We promised each other that we'd watch the last day of the fireworks right?"

"U-Uiharu-san?"

"Ah? Is that Misaka-san Uiharu?" Saten asked as she stole the ear piece from Uiharu. "Heey Misaka-san~! When are you gonna come back huh? I miss fighting with you in Arcade games! Uiharu just sucks at those!"

"Ah! Saten-san! You always said that I was fairly good!" Uiharu whined in the background.

"That's just the euphemism for saying that you suck Uiharu. I was trying to be nice."

"Ah! You're so mean!"

"Enough of the fighting!" Kuroko shouted, disrupting the other two. "Onee-sama, please. Please come back to us. You're not on the same level as those ba—"

Before Kuroko could finish her sentence, Mil had walked over and stepped on the ear piece, cutting the call off.

"You're wasting time Miko. Very important time. You're gonna have to make up for it." He said pulling her by the waist, forcing a kiss on her lips. Upon seeing this, rage immediately filled Touma's being as he tried to break free from the golden snakes.

"Kill him." Came the Reality Bender's voice again.

"I might just do so even without your help!" Touma shouted angrily. He saw Mikoto trying to move back, but Mil had only pulled her in harder. Right from the corner of her eyes, Touma saw a single drop of tear fall.

"THAT IS IT YOU B-ST-RD! YOU ARE DEAD!" He shouted, breaking free from the snake that bound him. He stood up and dashed over to Mil and Mikoto, grabbing Mikoto's hand and pulling her away from him, before he gave Mil a good old punch to the face. A few drops of blood from Mil's nose and jaw splattered over the grass as Touma turned to Mikoto.

"Damn it Mikoto, that scared the freaking hell out of me!" he said hugging her. The snakes that bound Frie and Accelerator also loosened and disappeared.

"What the-? Why did the snakes disappear?" Frie asked.

"Well duh, dumb ass. The f-ck-ng hero touched the f-ck-ng magician. Do the math you d-psh-t." Accelerator mocked.

"No…that's not how it's supposed to be…unless….KAMIJOU-KUN! STEP AWAY FROM HER!" He suddenly shouted, startling Touma.

"What are you talking about Friedrich? Mikoto is—"

And before he could finish whatever it was he was about to say, an invisible force suddenly sent him flying backwards, knocking the wind out of his lungs.

"What the hell Miko…to?"He said loudly at first, but gradually lost its volume as he saw Mikoto before him. She was entrapped in a whitish cage with sparks that flew right from the edges. Inside of it was Mikoto, her dress even more tattered than before, with huge white wings fluttering from her back.

"An…angel…" Mil muttered as he clambered over to the edge of the dome that encased Mikoto. "I did it! She's an angel! I completed an angel with my power!' He laughed manically.

'So I was right. He did give his magic to her after all." Friedrich said.

"What do you mean by that?" Touma asked.

"The snakes suddenly disappeared. If it was your Imagine Breaker, they would have shattered to oblivion, not suddenly disappear. But seeing what happened, I could only conclude that he lost his magic to Misaka Mikoto when he forcefully kissed her."

"Sh-t. I don't give a damn about that anymore!" Touma shouted, standing up and walking over to the edge of the dome. "Mikoto! You need to listen! You don't have to do whatever it is that you're gonna do! No matter what happens after this, to you, to me or everyone else, we'll all still be here for you!"

"T-Touma?" Mikoto said in an electrified voice. (Similar to Kanon Ozu's whenever she uses her electricity in Coppelion). "This is…for everyone…"

She said with a smile, before closing her eyes. Wind ran wildly all throughout the park as white sparks of electricity flew through the air.

"A wish you'll hear

From an Angel's Tear

A desire you'll grant,

From this angel's rant!"

"Mikoto! What are you doing?!"

"I want…I wish that all the angelic power in this world be destroyed and brought back to Heaven! I don't care what happens! Just turn our lives back to normal dammit!"

"MIKOTO!"

"GRANT ME MY WISH! ANGEL TEAR!"

She shouted, and before they all even knew it, the world had turned white.

Kamijou Touma walked through the hallways of A Certain Hospital. Nurses, doctors and patients greeted him with smiles as he passed them by.

"You seem to be in good spirits today, Kamijou-kun."

Heaven Arbiter, whose real name is Yamamoto Minako, said as she walked out of Misaka Mikoto's hospital room.

'Yeah, of course I am! It's been two days since Mikoto got hospitalized, and she finally woke up right? I made her all her favorites! I brought some pasta and even ice cream! Shirai-san and the other girls will be bringing in some cake later too!"

"I'm happy that you're happy, but you might not want to celebrate too soon, Kamijou-kun." She said in a stern voice, making Touma worry.

"W-why? Does she have complications again? Does she have amnesia or something?"

"No, no. nothing of that sort. Why don't you just go in and see for yourself?" she said pushing Touma inside the room and closing the doors behind him.

"What the-? Grumpy old lady." He whined as he stumbled forward.

"What did you say?" A grim voice said from the room. He eerily turned his head towards the owner of the threatening female voice and saw Mikoto trembling with fear as she jotted down noted and answered work sheets on her hospital bed, which was beside a huge pile of papers leaning on one side.. He sort of had an idea by now.

"You should learn to respect the elderly; wouldn't you say so, Kamijou-san?"

Mikoto's dorm mistress said as she fixed the spectacles on the bridge of her nose.

"A-ah…yeah…I'm very sorry, Dorm Mistress…"

"HMPH. Anyway, I will leave Misaka in your care for now Kamijou-san, for I have matters to attend to. But to make sure that you will keep her and yourself in check, I had brought with me some assignments for both you and her, seeing as you've skipped classes for quite a long time."

"Oh. That explains the Leaning Tower of Paperwork in this room. But…I'll take care of it and sees to it that she will finish all of our homework."

"Our homework?" Mikoto and the dorm mistress said raising an eyebrow. Upon realizing his slip up, Touma immediately apologized and soon enough the dorm mistress left.

"Seriously Mikoto. I thought that she wouldn't leave until she killed me for something." Touma sighed and Mikoto smiled as he placed the paper bag he was holding and sat on the chair next to Mikoto's bed. He picked up one of the books on Mikoto's side of the paperwork and flipped through it.

"What the hell is this gibberish? Is this some sort of ancient Sanskrit or Hieroglyphics or what?"

Touma asked confusedly. Mikoto took the book from his hands and skimmed through it.

"It's advanced Trigonometry and Calculus you idiot. Anyway, don't touch this side okay? I've already done and filed the assignments by date. You might send them flying, knowing your luck."

"WAIT. You've finished all of this?!" He asked, pointing exasperatedly to the huge pile of papers that were organized neatly on her bed.

"Yeah. I'm nearly done with my assignments. I'm gonna help you with yours later."

"Help?"

"Oh yeah. Let me rephrase that then. Let me DO your assignments for you later okay?" she said with a small laugh as she continued on writing. "What's in the bag?"

"It's food, but before that, Mikoto?" Touma's tone suddenly changed from happy to serious. Mikoto sighed, before placing her pen down and setting aside the few papers she had left to finish.

"I know you must be tired and everything. You just woke up this morning and I know I really shouldn't do—"

"I know what you're trying to say Touma." Mikoto said looking up to him with a faint smile. "You want me to explain what exactly happened two days ago. What happened to Cielo-san, Zeniax, Josephine, me and Hiromi right?"

"I..I know that you don't want to talk about it like this, but I just really—"

"Want to know?" Mikoto asked, completing his sentence. "It's okay. I understand. But you might want to take a seat first. This is gonna be one hell of an explanation."

"Are you sure about this?"

"Of course I am. I want to eat and get all this homework done before Kuroko and everyone else arrives you dope. But I need to explain things first to you. I want you to hear everything from me, not from somebody else. But promise me that you won't…get mad okay?"

=chapter end=

Hey! Sorry for the late update! I got so caught up in wanting to watch Catching Fire that I nearly forgot to update this. But I did watch it and I did get to update this! Yay for me! Ha-ha!

Guess what dudes! The stupidest things just happened today! After our morning assembly or flag ceremony or whatever you call it, while we had our regular classes, one of my friends excused me and asked to me to say either yes or no. when I said what, she just told me to say yes or no. with me being the idiot I was, I absent mindedly said yes and she was laughing her lungs out.

Guess what I just said yes to. A freaking pageant. It's for the stupid King and Queen of Hearts that my school hosts every year. Turns out, they knew that I would never ever say yes if they told me the reason why, so they just decided to trick me into it. So I've been trying to persuade my teachers to reconsider the entire day and it is tiring as hell.

I hope it worked! Seriously! I'm going to die even before the stupid competition. Even if I did participate, I would probably trip on stage, pull on the curtains, pop the balloons, break the decorations on stage and destroy the mic before anything else happens. Why the hell would they even consider me as one of the participants anyway?! Agh! I'm sorry! I'm just really frustrated right now.

Well, I hope you enjoy or something… Till next time! Ja!

Next chapter: Mikoto finally tells Touma what happened! Mikoto's reunion with her friends! Two people surprisingly visit Mikoto, scaring Touma to death! "…leaving her in your hands…"
