Since the incident of a Blood God appearing in the Middle of Academy City passed, the Public was informed that it was a sort of test-effect on a Movie being filmed in that area. Seeing that it was academy city, People just somewhat accepted it. And among those people was Mugino Shizuri, a level 5 esper that was hanging out by a Family restaurant. On her mind right now is the processing thought of a certain individual, a boy who was somewhat younger than but was capable of taking her down. That boy was a friend of her male companion (slave) Hamazura. And right now she is jokingly poking Hamazura in his sides with a wooden Spork while being tied up by a rope in a sexual manner.

"Ow….Ow…..Ow….Ow…Ow…Ow…Ouch!"

"Ah…blood."

"Eh!?"

"Neh, Takitsubo. Can you pass me the salt."

"Eh!!"

"Here." said Takitsubo as she passes the salt.

"Thanks."

"Wait wait wait wait wait, why are you even doing this!?"

"its because I'm bored. We haven't got a job in these past few days."

"Its not my fault that we spent 2 weeks looking for immigrants." said Hamazura as he struggles to free himself from that bondage that he was in.

".…..Tsk." having lost to reason, Mugino clicked her tongue.

"Hmm? Whats wrong Mugino? You usually don't slow down on the super torture, especially with our toy right here willingly tied up." said Kinuhata as she drinks her melon soda.

Mugino didn't say anything and instead activated her power to cut Hamazura free from the sexy bondage.

"Eh? Whats wrong Mugino?" asked Frenda.

"I got something to do. Lets go Hamazura, you're driving."

"Huh?……okay." said Hamazura as picks out the keys for the van that they were driving. Hamazura had a guess on what and where Mugino was going.

Location - Hospital

Its been four days since he was put inside his VIP room, with its familiar view of a single window showing the vast outlook of academy city, the fluttering white curtains bringing the calming breeze of wind coming in one direction to a boy sleeping calmly in his bed which he feels naturally accustomed to. In a span of four days where he continuously slept like a vegetable. The heart monitor beeps as it records every heartbeat the boy gives.

A girl looks with worry at the boy who she considers her closes friend. With the same sad look and with the same hope that everything would go back to the way things were. Index waited each day to see him wake up again and tell her that nothing has changed and to tell her the reason for his disappearance for the last two weeks.

"Touma…"

"Beep" "Beep" "Beep"

Usually the boy would wake up in a matter of days in any accident he gets himself into but for him to be asleep this long was worrying her to a new level.

She reached her hand out to touch his forehead and leaned in to to kiss it, all to wish him to wake up and greet her with her smile. As she parted her lips from his forehead, a voice reached out to her.

"Am I interrupting something?"

"!?"

To her surprise it was the doctor. The Calm but mischievous frog-faced Doctor.

".……..!!!!!!" (Blush.)

Her face was as red as a tomato, being caught on the act. She ran away from the room with her hands covering her face in embarrassment.

The Doctor sighs as he sees the Girl ran off.

"[Sighs]…….Kids these days."

"Hmm? Oh my, and why is our patient here also red as a stop sign. Does he have a fever?… Maybe I should add a few prescriptions and extend his stay."

"!!" all of a sudden the sleeping boy sits up from his bed with a flushed face and an unreadable expression.

"Hmm, what to do? should I report this back to the little missy."

"Ah….please don't."

"Well aside from that sudden development, you seem to be in good condition. As usual your healing capabilities are quite unnatural and but each night…. somewhere around 5 in in the morning, you're heart rate seems to expand for no reason and then diminishes just like that. I haven't told the little Missy about this but it seems to involve of some slight PTSD.

".…."

"Hmm, well I'll give you time think about it, so rest up."

"Thank you Doctor." Kamijou thanks the Doctor as he sees him leave his room.

He stares at his empty room and only one thought comes to his mind.

Ars Magna.

The scream of that one man keeps coming back to him, to remind him of what he's done. Guilty, his hand grips the blanket he is covered with.

He looks through the window and and sees birds landing on the window and suddenly taking off again.

"Hm?"

( Play: Debussy Claire de lune)

He turns to his front and sees a man with red hair and wearing a priest's uniform.

"Stiyl.."

".…" Stiyl stood in silence as he brings out his cigarette box and lights a cigarette.

Stiyl walks towards the window and began to smoke his cigarette.

"Looks like everything's been solved. One of the Calidad brothers is looked up in one of our cells while the other was found…dead." Stiyl talked in a calming voice as he explained what happened after the incident.

"...was it my fault again?"

"No."

".…H-how can I trust what you say?" with a shaky voice, Kamijou doubted Stiyl's answer.

".…." Stiyl was quit. He knew what Kamijou was doubting him for and he didn't have an excuse to tell him.

"Why?….Why didn't you tell me about Ars Magna?"

"Ars Magna…. a past companion of Index and now a man who is forgotten by the world."

Stiyl puts out his cigarette and began explaining himself to Kamijou.

As minutes pass by, rain began to fall from the skies, each pitter patter from each rain drop felt silencing to Kamijou's ears as he hears each words that comes out of Stiyl's mouth.

His reasons were unjust to Kamijou, each word the comes out of his mouth slowly enrages Kamijou. But Kamijou was nonetheless responsible for what happened. In the end, his vented anger was only directed to himself.

Stiyl finished explaining himself to Kamijou and began to walk out of his room. With one last glimpse, he saw the boy clinching his blanket and tears ready to fall at any moment.

"Kamijou Touma, you may find yourself Guilty for what happened but remember, you did what you could. You had your reasons and he had his, I find it idiotic to blame oneself when I know for a fact the he wasn't in the wrong."

".…"

"...Remember, you saved Index that day."

With those last parting words, Stiyl left his room. Leaving the boy all alone.

Not long after, Index came back to his room to find him looking out the window all wide and awake. She stares at him as tears of joy began to fall. She walks up to him and greet him like how she would each time he comes back from school.

Touma looks at her and smiles back.

Location - Hospital - Nighttime

Outside the room of Kamijou Touma stood a lady whose hair color had the same color palette as a tea. She stood there with her coat like dress and with a box that was cutely designed. She was walking back and forth, contemplating on what to do as fidgeted with her fingers.

If anyone saw her right now, they could tell that she was troubled/hesitating.

"Ah Geez, should I go in or not!? why am I even nervous about this in the first place?"

She felt Conflicted, she kept remembering that smile that Idiot gave her after he fell unconscious in her van. It made her feel weird in every aspect possible. (The Good kind)

She questioned herself why she was even here in the first place, she had never visited anyone ever except for her teammates. (excluding Hamazura). LOL

This was the first time she was visiting a boy in his room (hospital room)

She tried calming herself, telling and asking herself why should she even be nervous in the First place. They were not even that close in the first place….but that thought off them not being close bothered her.

"Aahhhh! Fuck it!"

she slowly opened the door.

It was quite the Reverse Deja-vu for her, since the last time this happened was that it was the Boy who visited her.

Inside the room laid a boy whose eyes were shut, she could tell that he was sleeping soundly.

Unaware of the face she was making, a smile forms as she stared at the face of the boy. She walk towards him and slowly sat down by his side. She saw his right arm and reminded her of that time they first meet, it wasn't a good first impression but still she giggled as she thought of the fight they had.

She slowly reached out to grab his right hand but hesitated.

"….…"

She mustered all her strength as she finally made the choice of touching his right arm and to top it off she decided to slowly lean her head to his shoulder. And to top it off again, she took a little sniff on his neck.

A bit of blush came to her face as she realized what she just did but she didn't show any signs of doubt from that action. In fact she felt like she became closer to him…even though what she did was somehow to weird.

She laughed and thought to herself (what is it with you anyway…Idiot.)

she sat there, feeling the warmth of the boy for a few minutes before leaving the box at the table

She decided to leave, but before then she looked at him one more time and smiled with a blush on her face, before leaving his room.

All that nervousness back then was completely forgotten.

"….…."

Ten minutes passed as the Girl left his room

".…..What just happened?"

Kamijou was awake as all of that happened. He started feeling something was laying by his right shoulder, and to his amazement, someone was there and not just anyone, but that Girl.

And just like before he was just as red as a Stop sign.

As Mugino left the Hospital, she noticed the van parked in front of the Hospital (Which shouldn't be allowed.) and there sat a blonde-haired boy who was sleeping at the Driver's seat. She kicked the Van to wake up Hamazura and got in the back of the van.

"Umm, so how was he?" Hamazura asked.

"...He's doing fine." Mugino replied but with a slight hesitation.

Hamazura noticed this and looks back to see the reaction she was giving. One quick look and Hamazura could tell what sort of event happened inside there.

"Hmm, okay."

With that, he started the van and drove it back to ITEM's hideout.

The next day Kamijou was discharged from the Hospital and now was going back to his good old school days. The fun banters with his friends filled Kamijou with joy, the reminiscing feeling of their Loli sensei discussing the History of Kamijou Touma's record of absences and his great on-holding record of failing grades. All of it felt natural to Kamijou.

As he sat by his chair which was conveniently placed by the window, two of his most trust worthy friends came at the entrance of the door discussing the questions men wonder and thrive for regarding their purpose in life and mostly their deep bestowed fetishes.

Kamijou sighs as he listens to the rambles of his Classmates arguments. Uninterested by such topics, all he could think of was what happened last night regarding that one Girl.

As time passes by, one of his friends, Aogami came to a certain topic. A topic that intrigues all boys of their age.

"Hey… umm, I know we've been talking about Fetishes this and Bunny girls that, but what about relationships."

"Huh?" to Touma and Tsuchimikado's surprise, they felt words of sincerity coming out of Aogami's mouth for once.

"Shouldn't I get a girlfriend by now? I mean look at me, I'm basically a dictionary filled with the knowledge every man needs to get one. A Fetish connoisseur if you will."

And then losses that feeling of sincerity once again.

"Haha, not a chance." said Tsuchimikado.

"Huh!? are you saying you have a bigger chance of getting one?" Rebutted Aogami.

"Hm! Lets just say I once got invited to a mixer with a few friends and….Hehehe-" Tsuchimikado laughs as he brings out a piece of paper and slams it at Kamijou's desk. "-I got her Phone number!"

"Impossible!!" said Aogami as he couldn't believe what he sees before him.

Kamijou also felt shocked on the news but then notices a anomaly in the piece of paper.

"Eh!? Tsuchimikado, I don't think this is a phone number."

"What!?" both Tsuchimikado and Aogami looks to Kamijou in surprise. Aogami sounding more positive about it.

"I think it's a number for a Family diner take-out service."

".….."

".….."

Tsuchimikado brings out his phone and dials the number.

".…Beep……Beep……Beep……*Click* Welcome to McQueen Family Diner, How may I take your Order?"

".……"

".…..Um Sir?"

".…Um can I order two Mcpatties, a liter of cola, and a rope I can hang myself into."

"What?"

Kamijou quickly grabs the phone and hangs up the call.

".……"

".…."

".…."

"FUck!"

".…."

"Well, at least it was a Girl's phone number."

"Fukou da~~"

"Hmm,
