~At School~
{Ion's POV}
Something unexpected happened! I went to the infirmary to tell miss Mikado about yesterday's attack, and to ask her if she learned anything new regarding those robots, only to see that THE Principal was there, standing all alone in the room without his shirt and with his pants on. It was quite unusual, since he is usually seen in his boxers only. Just before I ask what he was doing there by himself, out of nowhere Kremant appeared in front of him, greatly startling him, with me being surprised he didn't appear behind me this time like he usually does. When I asked him what he was doing here, he said he is here to help Rito, which confused me, till he went behind of the Principal and after a moment of touching his back, the skin falls, revealing to my surprise that the Principal was actually Rito in disguise! Kremant then explained to me about the actual person being blown away by Yami, the interview that was needed to be taken care of, and the idea with the special costume miss Mikado had prepared for Rito to use and help with the situation, which he told me was all true. Kremant also said that miss Mikado had to suddenly go take care of an emergency, and that if he didn't decide to help him out, he would be stuck inside that thing for quite a while, which Rito surprisingly thanked him for. After that, Kremant simply vanished from sight, grinning, and without saying another word.
Ionas: ... *Surprised* I can't believe he actually gave you a hand instead of making it worse.
Rito: *Sweat Drop* I know right? Didn't expect that!
Ionas: *Wondering* Why though?
Rito: *Smile* Maybe he decided to change his-
I slap Rito on the back of his head.
Rito: *In Pain* OUCH!
Ionas: *Annoyed* Don't speak bullsh*t! We both know he is not like that!Anyway, let's not think about it till we see what happens next. As always, you never know with him.
Rito: *Touches The Back Of His Head In Pain* *Sweat Drop* Alright...
We both move out of the infirmary, and I'm about to close the door behind us.
Mea: *Smile* Oh, hey there, Senpais!
We look to the side and see Mea approaching us.
Rito: Hey, Mea.
Ionas: *Weary-Like*
Hope she doesn't ask for the usual.
Mea: What were you two doing inside the infirmary together?
Rito: *Sweat Drop* Ah, w-well-
Mea: *Mischievous Smile* Could it be that you were doing something "fun" with Mikado-Sensei in secret?
Rito: *Flustered* Huh?!
Ionas: *Rolls Eyes* Rito, please, be a man for once and stop acting like a sissy. Also, I bet Mea already knows that miss Mikado is not inside.
Mea: *Giggle* That's true, I was just joking around. *Wink* You saw through me as always, Ion-Senpai.
Ionas: Typical. Well, it was nice seeing you, *To Rito* let's go, buddy, we can go get a refreshment or some-
While I was turning around and saying that, and while about to walk away, I hear the door suddenly closing behind me. When I look, Rito and Mea were nowhere to be found.
Ionas: *Realization* Ah. *Sigh* Of course she would.
I open the door to the infirmary, and see Mea in her goth battle-uniform, with her breast somewhat exposed, on top of a blushed like tomato Rito on one of the beds there. I close the door behind me, and approach them.
Rito: *Flustered* M-M-Mea, that's...
Mea: *Smile* *To Ion* I knew you will not lose the opportunity to come back in again, Ion-Senpai.
Ionas: *Bored* Are you for real with this now, Mea?
Mea: Well, I don't really do it for myself-
Ionas: *Annoyed* Bullsh*t.
Mea: It's just that Momo said that Rito-Senpai needs to get used to a girl's body, so I thought I will help a little with that. It's for the good of the harem. *To Rito* Now, Senpai, *Seductive* don't leave me waiting.*
Rito: *Flustered* Ah... Ah...
I can see her ruining it by that way. Don't really care for the plan, but letting her do as she pleases, when Haruna didn't even have the chance yet, is not something I'll allow.
Ionas: *Serious* *To Mea* Alright, enough with this, you get the he-
As I'm about to grab Mea by her arm, she catches me by surprise by suddenly grabing MY arm instead, pulling and placing me with my back onto the bed beside Rito, with her now standing on top of ME.
Mea: *Smile* How about joining in instead? Maybe he will get over his shyness if he sees someone unshaken like you in action. *Seductive* You could probably help your friend that way, you know.*
After saying that, she takes my right hand and forces it on one of her breast. Rito was watching in his usual shock while blushing. So, she is doing the same on me now, eh?
Mea: *Blushing And Smiling* So, what do you say, Ion-Sen-
Before she finishes that sentence, I grab and pull her ear strongly with my other hand.
Mea: *In Pain* Ouch, ouch, ouch!
Doing that, I force her off me, and make her get off the bed and stand up along with me as well, while still pulling the said ear.
Ionas: *Irritated* I believe you had enough fun for one day, don't you think so too?
Mea: *Sweat Drop* Th-Then how about-
I pull her ear even more, knowing damn well she will ask for a hug again.
Ionas: *Very Irritated* No hugs for you today either. Understand?
Mea: *In Pain* I-I got it, I got it!
With that, I let her ear free, and she rubs it with one hand.
Mea: *Pouty Face* You're a meanie, Senpai.
Ionas: *Irritated* And you're a filthy pervert, that makes us even. Learn limitations, and I might treat you better. *Points At The Door* Now out.
And with that, she walks out of the room, seemingly frustrated. You know, I feel kinda bad after doing that for some reason.
Rito: *Sweat Drop* Weren't you a bit too harsh on her?
Ionas: You say you preferred letting her have her way with us?
Rito: *Blush* *Sweat Drop* I-I'm not saying that, but-
Ionas: *Annoyed* Then I hear nothing! If you ask me, she was asking for it after all this time.
Rito: *Sweat Drop* Maybe...
Ionas: Come on now, let's go get us those refreshments we talked about.
~The Next Free Period~At The Courtyard~
{Nana's POV}
I decided to help Kotegawa a little by placing some posters around the school, for safety reasons that mostly include that perverted Principal, and because I felt I should help with something here for once myself, for her who does so much for everyone's sake here at school. For my consideration, she even invited me to join the Morals Committee, which took me by surprise. I was not sure if I really wanted to join or not, so I told her I will think about it. She then asked me If Ion would be interested in joining in as well. Especially after what happened last time, she believes he would be a perfect addition to the Committee. I told her that I will ask him about it when I have the chance, before leaving her and going on my way.
Nana: *Thinking* Being together in the Morals Committee with Ion might not be a bad idea. I will spend more time with him that way at school, and also being the school's rules enforcers sounds fun. I wonder if the position affects the grades, if only a little.
Mea: *Smile* Nana-Cha~n!
I look and see Mea coming in my way.
Nana: *Smiles And Waves* Hey, Mea! What's-?
When she reaches me, she tells me about what she attempted to do at the last period, and the end result, much to my surprise.
Mea: *Sweat Drop*And then he pulled my ear and forced me to leave. Seriously, Ion-Senpai can be so mean at times.
Nana: *Sweat Drop* Serves you right after what you tried to do. *Blushing And Annoyed* Seriously now, going for both?!
Like, seriously?!
Mea: Why not? *Smile* I like them both, and I wanted to help Rito-Senpai for real with that.
Nana: I... *Frustrated Sigh* I'm not even going to argue with you for such thing.
Why must you be like this, Mea?
Momo: *From Afar* Nana~!
I look behind me, and see Momo approaching fast.
Nana: Momo?
Mea: *Smile* Hey, Momo-Chan!
Momo: Ah, Mea-San. *Sweat Drop* *Smile* Hi.
She seems kinda troubled suddenly.
Nana: Is everything alright?
Momo: *Sweat Drop* Umm, well you see... (Oh, I know!) *Smile* I-I know it will sound weird, but I found a really interesting book about the plants and animals in Ancient Greece in the library today. I thought you might want to come check it out with me. It has some quite peculiar things in it that you might want to read about. Not many pictures though.
Nana: Animals in ancient Greece, huh? *Smile* You got my interest! *To Mea* What do you say, Mea?
Mea: Eeh, if you told me about showing me some real ones from the Cyber Safari, I would be in, but reading about them sounds a bit boring. Sorry, maybe another time.
Nana: Oh ok. *Smile* See you later then?
Mea: *Smile* Yeah. I'll just take a stroll around, see if anything interesting is going on. See you soon!
By saying that, she walks away. She is not much of a book person it seems. Well, neither am I, but we are talking about animals here.
Nana: *To Momo* Well, I guess it's only the two of us. Let's go.
Momo: *Smile* Of course, this way.
I follow Momo all the way to the school's library. As we get inside, I notice only one or two people sitting in the tables reading. Well, not that I expected the library to be full of people or anything, really. After going deeper inside the library and getting ourselves between the bookshelves, we stop.
Nana: Alright, where is the book you were talking about.
Momo: I'm sorry, Nana. I lied to you. There is no such book here.
Nana: *Surprised* You wha-?!
Momo: *Sweat Drop* Shh! Don't yell, we are in a library!
After saying that, she goes at the end of the bookshelves to check around for anyone.
Momo: (Ok, no one nearby.)
She then comes back.
Nana: *Confused* What you wanted me here for then?
Momo: *Sweat Drop* It's a rather... Special subject. See, I called Ion to be my guard like usual, cause the VMC members were just not leaving me alone, and-
{Flashback}
{Author's POV}
Momo and Ion were walking together around through the hallways, till they notice Rito falling on top of Lala on the way, who's body was now back to normal, and touching her inappropriately, and him getting flustered about as he gets up to apologize, which Lala obviously doesn't really mind anyway.
Ionas: *Sighs And Shakes Head* That Rito... Always ready to get all red and embarrassed like theres no tomorrow because of a woman.
Momo: You say it's bad that he is considerate of someone's feelings?
Ionas: There is a fine line between consideration and overreaction. And I don't just speak about his "falls", but him with women in general. I mean, when he sees one naked, or even half-naked, he gets flustered and stunned at such level, that he just stands there, and keeps on looking without being able to consider turning around fast, which ends up with him being labeled as a pervert because of his shyness only! He is just acting so... Unmanly. (Putting it softly.)
Momo: *Upset* Hey, you can't talk about Rito-San like that! You think you're SO much better than him, don't you?
Ionas: I was not really implying-
Momo: *Upset* Well you're not! And I can even bet that you can be shaken just as much by women, but use that facade of yours to make it look like that's not the case. I know after all how good of a liar you're, from those other times I saw you.
Ionas: Now you're just being ridiculous.
Momo: Oh yeah? Then how about this? *Serious* I issue a challenge.
Ionas: (A challenge?) What kind?
Momo: *Mischievous Smile* A mixed onsen kind.
Ionas: ... *Raises An Eyebrow* A what now?
Momo: It is simple. You will have to be with me and some other girls inside an onsen for forty minutes. If you can manage to stay inside, and able on keeping your composure intact enough to not leave, then you will prove that you're not just all talk. The winner gets to ask the other for anything, as long as it is not too excessive of course.
Ionas: *Confused* When did you even think all... *Shakes Confusion Off His Head* Anyway, forget it. I ain't doing something like that. I don't need to prove anything to you.
Ion turns his back on her, and is about to walk away.
Momo: *Cheeky* What's this? Afraid of seeing a little skin, Ion? I thought you wouldn't pass the opportunity to prove me wrong. *Shrugs* But I guess in the end you're nothing but a hypocrite.
When Momo said that, Ion stays motionless for a moment. He then turns around and brings his face close to hers, showing to be greatly provoked.
Ionas: *Real Serious* Challenge. Accepted. You cheeky dwarf.
Momo: *Sweat Drop* ...
{End Of Flashback}
{Nana's POV}
Momo: *Sweat Drop* And after that, so I will not be unfair, I had to agree to his proposal on letting him bring at least two other guys with him along. Also to not involve big sis or Mea in this, for obvious reasons.
Ah, that's why the lie back there. Still-
Nana: *Sweat Drop* *Blush* A... Are you for real with this?
Momo: *Sweat Drop* I couldn't just let him badmouth Rito-San like that! In any case, I can't back out now. If I suddenly tell him that I changed my mind, he will then say that I'M the hypocrite, and will always rub it in my face from then on. *Annoyed* And the last thing I want, is him acting all smart on me again.
What an idiot this sister of mine can be at times.
Momo: *Sweat Drop* Because of the extra people he will bring along, I even had to make up new rules for this to not go out of control. I don't expect him to bring decent people, knowing how cunning he is. The challenge is decided to begin today after school during the afternoon.
Nana: Ok... *Raises An Eyebrow* And why are you telling me all this?
She places her hand on my shoulder.
Momo: *Smile* Cause I want you to join in.
Nana: ... *Flustered* Eeh~?!
Random Girl: *From Afar* *Annoyed* Quiet in the library please! Thank you!
*After A Moment Of Silence Passes*
Nana: *Blush* *Sweat Drop* You can't be serious with this!
Momo: I am. I thought about it for a little while, and I think it will do good if you come too.
Nana: *Blush* *Sweat Drop* A-Are you seriously expecting me to get into a mixed onsen, with guys in there, AND with Ion present no less?!
Momo: *Mischievous Smile* You didn't mind though, when you shared with him that time the same bath, and the same bed.
Nana: *Flustered* Th... *Looks Away While Blushing* That was entirely different and you know it. Either way, I'm not doing it, so forget it.
Momo: What if I told you, that if you do that, you will show him how mature you've become, for not being shaken by all that, and that he will look at you differently from then on. In a good way I mean, of course.
Nana: ...
I think about it for a moment. From one point, I like the thought of him taking me more seriously. But on the other hand...
Momo: *Smile* Also, if you help me beat him, I will let YOU ask him for anything you want once we win. All "I" want is just the satisfaction of him realizing that I was right all along.
Nana: *Blush* *Sweat Drop* For anything I want...?
*Nana is thinking of a situation where she is angry at Ion, and scolds him for agreeing in that challenge to begin with, with her ending up demanding him to... Give her a long hug, before deciding to ask him to tell her all the things he likes about her, resulting in him about to give her a kiss*
Nana: *Dreaming Awake And Blushing* ...
Momo: *Mischievous Smile* (I think I got her.)
*Nana "wakes" up from her fantasy, still blushing about*
I don't like the thought of what I need to do, but... I can't lose the opportunity. Also... What if Momo calls girls that have a thing for Ion, and demand things from him too if they win and I'm not there? I-It's not that I'm doing it for me! I just want to make sure he will not have any problems like usual! Yes, that's all!
*Meanwhile Kremant is watching the scene in the Shadow Zone with some other Reshaped*
Kremant: *Grin* I like how she just lies to herself, as if there is a point in doing so.
Deinos (A.K.A. The Red Reshaped): *Annoyed* I hate that trait of hers!
Everyone Else: *Roll Eyes* We know!
*Back to Nana and Momo*
Nana: *Blushing And Seemingly Annoyed* A-Alright, fine! I will do your stupid challenge! Not that I want to.
Momo: *Smile* Excellent! With you there, we have a great chance of winning! (*Mischievous Thought* Since Ion is a tricky case of an individual, Nana might be the key to my- OUR success. When he gets in the onsen and sees HER there, naked and pretty much taking part in the challenge, there is no way he will not be surprised. I may not know if he likes her "that way" or not, but I know for sure he respects her quite a bit. The shock the moment he witnesses her will strike him so hard, that there is a high chance for him to forfeit out of guilt only! Best plan I ever had!)
Nana: *Blush* S-So, are we going to one in the town, or...
Momo: I was thinking of using one of your own onsens, in the Cyber Safari.
Nana: *Sweat Drop* Figures. Fine, I will go prepare the ground. Make sure the animals don't interupt us.
Momo: Also make sure the onsen you choose is then covered with tall walls all around, with only one entrance accessible.
Nana: *Raises An Eyebrow* Why?
Momo: Part of a rule. I'll explain later. Now I need to go find some other girls for this, *Winks And Smiles* and I think I know who will do the trick. (Just in case the other plan is not enough somehow. I need to be as prepared as possible with that guy.)* Oh, also remember to not tell anyone, especially Ion.
Nana: *Flustered* LI... Like I would!
~Meanwhile~Somewhere Through The School Hallways~
*Ion was walking about, thinking*
Ionas: (Alright, I already have one person in mind who will surely be of help to the whole challenge, and more than happy to participate. But who will be the third male member? *Thinks Of Nakajima* Absolutely not! That guy is the biggest pervert of them all! Not to mention Momo will hate my guts if I decided to bring HIM of all people to this. And even if he was to behave, he would most likely pass out the moment he sees Momo naked, so it's a pointless choice anyway. *Thinks Of Rito* JUST IMPOSSIBLE! Not even Momo would be able to make him do that! He is too nice to accept such challenge. *Keeps On Thinking* Who remains, who remains...* OH! That one might actually work to my favor!)
~During The Afternoon~Inside Nana's Cyber Safari~
*We see the covered with walls onsen, and with four naked girls only inside the slightly steamy water at the edge of the onsen, so far. The girls are Momo, Nana, Risa and Mio*
Had to expect Momo would call these two of all people. Anyway, due to a rule, Momo had Ion stay back at school, and find the other two guys to explain all the rules to them, while also ensuring by that way the two parties remain unknown to each other for the time being. Ion should be here with them any minute now. I don't feel very confident about this.
Risa: *Somewhat Surprised* I still can't believe YOU of all people would issue such a challenge, Momo-Chi.
Mio: *Somewhat Surprised* Yeah, I still can't believe it either!
Right, these two don't know about Momo's real character.
Momo: *Sweat Drop* Can't believe myself as well. But just like I told you from before, it's just that Ion was so... *Annoyed* Frustrating to me! Always being cheeky, and trying to show off how "supposedly" above everyone else he is!
Ion never tries to show off to anyone in the way she means! He IS cheeky at times though, that's true.
Momo: *Blushing And Seemingly Embarrassed* I have no idea how such a thought came to my mind. And I couldn't take it back either, unfortunately, else it is sure he would make fun of me. *Grunts In Annoyance* I REALLY want to see him lose, make him realize how wrong he is, and that he is not perfect!
Risa: *Sweat Drop* Well, he is known to be a hard character to deal with. *Smile* But don't worry, he might have been resistant to our usual attempt and jokes at school so far, but there is no way he will beat us at something like this.
Mio: *Determined* This time, we will make him blush like a tomato!
I don't feel quite ok letting them try whatever they are preparing to try on Ion, but I can't really say anything about it either without being suspicious. Don't want them learning about my-
Risa: Say, Nana-Chi.
Nana: Huh?
Risa: We know of you being quite against anything lewd.
Mio: Pretty much like Yui.
Risa: *To Nana* So, how come and YOU are taking part in something like this?
Nana: *Blush* Ah, w-well, umm... *Points At Momo* *Annoyed* She made me do this!
Momo: *Sweat Drop* Eh?
Nana: *Sweat Drop* *Smile* She just wouldn't leave me alone about it! She was saying stuff like "I can't do this alone, Nana! I need you to be there for me, Nana" and pretty much kept whining to me till I had no choice but to accept. *Shrugs And Shakes Her Head* My sister can be so hopeless.
I'm sorry, Momo, but I needed to cover myself somehow. In a way, I cover your true character too by that way, so you better not look at me badly for that!
Momo: *Smile* (It's ok, I understand, Nana.)
Momo comes close to me and hugs me all of a sudden.
Momo: *Smile* And I'm happy that my good sister is here for me. I couldn't ask for a better support.
Risa: *Smile* Ah, I see.
Mio: *Smile* You are such a sweet sister for helping her in her time of need.
Nana: *Seemingly Annoyed* Wh-Whatever.
Good, they ate it. Now I don't have to worry about-
*Knocks Are Being Heard At The Door, Which Get The Girls' Attention*
Momo: *Sweat Drop* It looks like they are here. Alright, girls, get ready. (This might not be as easy as we think it will be.) *To The Door* You can come In!
The door opens, and Ion comes inside alone, wearing only a towel around his waist and bottom, with his somewhat muscular frame catching Risa's and Mio's attention as he is approaching the onsen.
Risa: *To Mio* *Impressed* He sure works out well, doesn't he?
Mio: *To Risa* *Impressed* No kidding, look at that body.
Ionas: *As He Approaches* Well, girls, I- *Notices Nana*
Ion stops in his tracks as soon as he notices me, looking at me in surprise, and eyes wide open.
Ionas: *Extremely Surprised* ...
Momo: *Mischievous Smile* (Gotcha~.)
Ionas: *Extremely Surprised* (How she...?)
Risa: Hm? Hey, are you alright buddy?
Nana: *Greatly Blushing And Trembling From Embarrassment* ...
O-O-O-Ok, Nana, calm yourself down now.
Ionas: *Real Confused* (Why she...?!)
Yes, he is looking at you, and your naked body with an intense staring, but you seriously need to get yourself together! Don't forget that you want to show him that you're a mature person now, not a child that screams and flails about, because someone is looking at you while like this. Also remember, this is Ion, not just some perverted beast.
Nana: *Inhales And Exhales, Before Looking At Ion Somewhat Serious, With As Little Trembling As Possible*
Ionas: *Snaps Out Of His Confusion*
Ion looks at Momo that moment, with quite a menacing glare.
Momo: *Startled* Hu-
Ionas: *Menacing Glare* (I see what you're trying to do, you little sh*t! Don't know how you forced her into this, but I will make sure to enjoy greatly your punishment later for this!)
Momo: *Sweat Dropping Like Crazy* (O-Oh no. I think he saw through my plan, and now he is mad at me!)
Nana: *Sweat Drop* (He must be thinking she forced me into this, and now he is mad at her. He must know that I wouldn't normally do something like this. I'm just as surprised as he is, actually.)
Mio: *Sweat Drop* *To Risa* Do you get what is up at all?
Risa: *Sweat Drop* Not a clue.
Mio: *To Ion* Dude, are you there?
Ionas: Hm? Oh sorry, I just remembered something and was lost in thoughts for a moment there. (I'm not going to ask, for now.) Anyway-
Ion walks at the edge, which is on the other side from where WE are, gets in and sits down inside the water, removes his towel, and places it behind him at the rocks.
Momo: *Sweat Drop* You're supposed to take the towel off BEFORE entering inside an onsen, you know.
Ionas: Didn't want you to look at "it" just like that. Also we have extra towels outside, so no problem at all. Told the other two to do the same.
Risa: Speaking of which, where-?
Ionas: They are waiting outside. I wanted to bring them in via "introduction sequence style" for fun.
Nana And Momo: *Sweat Drop* (Really now?)
Ionas: *Mischievous Smile* *Loudly* Alrighty! *Claps His Hands Once* First one to appear inside the ring is~... Saruyama Kenichi!
When he says that, Saruyama opens the door and gets inside the room with only a towel covering his lower area.
Saruyama: *Smiles And Winks* He~llo there, ladies! Hope you're enjoying the bath- Don't mind if I do as well!
By saying that, he gets fast inside the onsen beside Ion, removes his towel, and places it behind him at the rocks.
Momo: *Sweat Drop* (I knew he will bring someone indecent! That one might be a problem for us.)
Saruyama was looking at Momo, Risa and Mio, with quite a lecherous look on his face. I should feel angry that he only looked at me once before ignoring me completely, surely due to my chest being small, but then I remember how lucky I am that I don't have to worry about him looking at me with that perverted face of his.
Ionas: He was quite thankful for the invite. Didn't even need to mention the "winning reward" to convince him further.
Risa: *Sweat Drop* Figures.
Saruyama: Wait, what was that about a rewa-?
Ionas: ANYWAY! *Mischievous Smile* *Loudly* And the second one to appear is~... *Evil Chuckling* ... The Principal!
The girls: *Real Shocked* WHAT?!
Ionas: *Amused Laugh* Just kidding, just kidding! *Smile* *Loudly* Instead, I give you Ren Elsie Jewelria!
When he said that, we see Ren coming through the open door, closing it behind him, and approaching with only a towel covering his lower area, with his somewhat similar to Ion muscular frame showing.
Momo: *Somewhat Surprised* (Ren?)
Ren: *Sweat Drop* Was that joke really necessary?
Ionas: *Smile* Couldn't resist the urge. Now get in, and get that towel off once in.
Ren: *Sigh* Very well.
Ren gets inside the onsen beside Ion as well, removes his towel, and placed it behind at the rocks like the others. I'm quite surprised Ren is the third member in that team of theirs of all people.
{Ion's POV}
Mio: *To Ion* *Sweat Drop* Wait, I can understand Saruyama, but-
Risa: *To Ion* *Sweat Drop* But how did you convince Ren of all people? *To Mio* I mean, we all know about his crush on La-
Ren: *Serious* Don't get the wrong idea. The only reason I'm here is because he challenged me.
{Flashback}
~At A Quiet Area At School~
Ren: *Raises An Eyebrow* What crazy idea is that even- *Turns Around* Not happening. Find someone else for-
Ionas: *Mischievous* So, I guess you're not man enough then.
Ren: ... *Turns Around To Face Him* What did you say?
Ionas: *Mischievous* I mean, if you were a real manly man, you wouldn't be fazed by the idea of looking at bunch of naked women for some time. And considering how easily Rito is flustered by such things, even someone like Lala would probably be impressed by you for being unfazed by such challenge. But, since you don't feel like you can do it, I will just have to go find someone man enough for it.
*Ion Turns Around And Attempts To Leave, Only For Ren To Stop Him By Grabbing Him By The Shoulder*
Ren: *Serious* When and where?
Ionas: *Grin*
{End Of Flashback}
Ren: So, here I am.
Momo: *Sweat Drop* (In other words, he was tricked into this. As always, Ion knows what to say to move people. He is as cunning as ever.)
Ren will be my strongest card in this, considering how serious he can get when it comes to proving himself to Lala.
Momo: Anyway, if you don't mind, we will say the rules one more time to make sure you all got them memorized.
*Everyone Agrees*
Momo: Rule number one, the boys will stay at their own side of the onsen during the forty minute duration. They are not allowed to touch the girls, only to look, and only make comments whenever they want about them.
Ionas: Sounds fair.
Momo: Rule number two, the girls have the freedom to do whatever it is needed to make the boys feel "uneasy" enough to force them out of the onsen.
Saruyama: *Lecherous* So feel free to apporach whenever you like, girls!
Risa: *Rolls Eyes* Don't expect it to be anytime soon, pervert.
Ionas: *Annoyed* LOOK WHO'S TALKING!
Momo: Rule number three, no one is allowed, especially the girls, to cover any of their private parts, as that would ruin the purpose of the challenge.
Ren: *Serious* I will not yield to such things. I have eyes only for-
Ionas: *Rolls Eyes* We know!
Momo: And rule number four, Ion is not allowed to use any of his powers to his advantage.
Ionas: Was not going to, though.
Momo: Better safe than sorry. (Especially with that bone-power of his.) *Blushes While Imagining Something Overly Sexual Happening To Them With Some Bone-Vines Under The Water*
The pervert is imagining tentacle play, isn't she?
Ionas: *Annoyed* Momo!
Momo: *Comes Back To Reality Startled* Eh- Wha-?! *Sweat Drop* *Smile* Oh, r-right.
Nana: (Is the heat from the water getting into her already?)
Momo: Anyone not able to keep their composure enough to stay inside the onsen, will lose and will have to wait outside for when the challenge is over. The winners will be the ones still inside after the forty minutes duration, and are allowed to ask afterward anything from one of the losers, as long as it is not too excessive.
Saruyama: Ah, I see now. *Blush* I can already think of a few things. *Imagines And Giggles In A Perverted Way*
Nana: *Aversion* (That guy gives me the creeps. And I'm not the only who thinks that.)
Ionas: *To Saruyama* Remember, nothing too excessive, so don't expect anything of sexual nature as a reward.
Saruyama: I know, I know. *Smile* But a guy can still imagine, right?
Ionas: Whatever. Just remember, not a word about this at school, not that anyone will believe you, just like we agreed, or I break your a*s. As for me, I'm still thinking about what to ask for in the end.
Ren: I will not ask for anything when I win. I only want to prove I'm man enough to handle the challenge.
Mio: *Smile* IF you win you mean.
Risa: *Smile* Yeah, don't get your hopes up now, pretty boy. *Seductive* You will not be able to handle what's coming to you.
Ren: *Determined* We'll see about that!
Momo gets her D-Dial, and is about to activate a timer.
Momo: And with that, the challenge officially begins! *Activates Timer, And Puts It Aside* May the best side wins!
Nana: *Sweat Drop* (And so, it begins... I must stay calm no matter what, and handle this as best as I can till the very end. I will show you, Ion, that I'm more matured than I used to be, and earn your favor!)
~Five Minutes Later~
Nana: (So far no one does anything. Just looking at each other. Momo, Risa and Mio are simply cleaning themselves, without caring much about the boys, while I am paralized in place, not knowing what to do? As for the boys, the pervert Saruyama is not losing the chance to look at every bit of the other girls' exposed bodies as they move about while bathing, and Ren is not really looking at them, focusing mostly at the empty spaces between them, only partially looking at them with the side of his eyes that way. And as for Ion...)
Ionas: *Incredibly Serious Intense Staring* ...
Nana: *Sweat Drop* (He was looking at the other three girls like he intents to murder them or something, making them feel quite uneasy and unable to look him in the eyes. Somehow, he avoids looking at me. I hope he is not thinking of me as a pervert for taking part in this and now he hates me!)
I still can't understand how Momo convinced Nana into this, but I better make it for her as easy as possible, and not make her feel worse than she already feels. I mean look at her!
Ionas: *Looks at her for just a second before returning his gaze on the other three*
Nana: *Blushing And Trembling A Little* ...
The poor girl is trembling like a fish out of the water from embarrassment for crying out loud! It's obvious she doesn't really want to be in this situation. I need to think of a suitable way to make Momo regret it later.
Saruyama: Hey, Ion?
Ionas: *Normal Face As He Looks At Him* Hm?
Saruyama: *Smile* I just wanna thank you again for inviting me into this. *Blush* Looking at girls like this, without being slapped about and called a "pervert", is the best!
Mio: You're still a pervert!
Saruyama: *Cheeky* Maybe, but I'm still not being slapped, so HA!
Ionas: Whatever, man.
Actually, I wonder... I take a look from the water where his manhood is supposed to be.
Saruyama: *Raises An Eyebrow* What are you-?
Ionas: Average size. *Somewhat Impressed* Not bad actually.
Saruyama: *Sweat Drop* Oh. Umm, thanks, I guess?
I take a look at Ren's too.
Ionas: Quite above average. *Thumbs Up* Looking good, mate.
Ren covers his member out of embarrassment.
Ren: *Sweat Drop* Hey, don't just say our sizes out loud!
Saruyama: Speaking of which, what about your-?
Saruyama leans toward to take a look at mine, only to see it at its small size.
Saruyama: *Sweat Drop* Wait... Are you seriously sm-?
Ionas: *Amused* You wish I was! No, it's just not "annoyed" yet.
Saruyama: ... So, let me get this straight. You want to tell me, that your little buddy down there is not enjoying the view of those gorgeous NAKED ladies in front of us?
Ionas: It's not that I don't like what I see, but I can keep it down without much problem.
Saruyama: ... *Upset* I don't believe you! No, no, I don't believe you at all, that's nonsenses! There is no way such thing is-!
While he was saying all that, I greatly focus at a very sexual image in my mind, and my "buddy" goes full size in an instant, while still remaining below the water.
Saruyama: *Incredibly Surprised* ...
Ionas: *Smile* See? I told you.
Ren: *Somewhat Impressed* I'll be honest, that's actually quite an impressive skill.
Nana: *Sweat Drop* (What are those three doing over ther-?)
Momo: *Moans*
Nana: Eh?
We all turn our attention at Momo, whose breast is grabbed and played by Risa, while Mio holds and rubs the first one's tail.
Risa: *Mischievous Smile* Your breast is as great as ever I see.
Momo: *Greatly Blushing And Struggling With The Sensation* What... Are you...?
Risa: *Mischievous Smile* He-he~, I'm sorry Momo-Chi, but we holded ourselves back for far too long. See it as part of our little plan.
Mio: *To Momo* *Mischievous Smile* Don't worry, just entrust your body to us.
Risa: *To Momo* *Mischievous Smile* And let's give the boys a show they'll remember.
After that, they both begin "playing" with Momo's body, with her moaning like there is no tomorrow. They don't do something too crazy, but even I must admit that this is quite the stimulating show.
Nana: *Flustered* Ah... Ah... (What the hell are they doing in front of the boys?! Are they mad?! This is...!)
Poor Nana, seeing your sister at such a situation... Still, do they seriously believe that by "playing around" is enough to-?
*As Ion Looks At The Guys Beside Him, He Sees that Saruyama Is Trembling Quite A Bit While Looking At The "Play" Right In Front Of Him*
Ionas: Hey, man, are you-?
Before I say more, Saruyama nosebleeds so hard, that he is launched off the onsen, ending up landing with his back onto the rocky field behind.
Ionas: *Greatly Surprised* ...
Saruyama was unconscious. He couldn't handle the "live show" in front of him. Everyone but Risa and Mio were surprised as well. Are you for real with this now?!
Mio: *Smile* One down, two to go!
Risa: *Smile* *To Momo* See? I told you we had a plan. Isn't that great?
Momo: *Sweat Drop* *Blush* O-Ok, I see what you did there. I guess we can now st-
Risa and Mio start to "play" with her again, making her moan like before.
Risa: What are you talking about, Momo-Chi? *Mischievous Smile* We have to keep going and try to take down the other two as well.
Mio: *Mischievous Smile* That's right! So we better not waste time.
And with that, the "show" starts once again. Nana at the moment seems to be rather conflicted by all that.
Nana: *Sweat Drop* *Blush* (I think I better-)
*Nana looks at the whole thing better, while hearing Momo's moans, with the perverted faces Risa and Mio are making while enjoying teasing her*
Nana: *Sweat Drop* *Blush*... (You know what, nevermind. I don't want to somehow end up the same way. I'm sorry, Momo, you're on your own on this.)
~Ten Minutes Later~
After getting Saruyama outside of the walls and getting myself back inside again, ten minutes pass, till they finally stop teasing Momo about, letting her take a breath from all that.
Momo: *Blushing And Gasping from the high stimulation*
Ionas: *Amused Smile*
Let's admit it, she asked for it the moment she decided to invite those perverted girls. I look at Ren, and see that he is still his serious self, even after that show. I knew HE will at least be my best card in this game.
Nana: *Sweat Drop* *Blush* (They stopped finally.)
Momo: *Blushing And Still A bit Weak* Jeez! You didn't have to be so-
Mio: *Smile* Sorry~.
Risa: *Smile* We just REALLY wanted to be sure it will affect them.
Momo: *Sweat Drop* (You just wanted to play around, didn't you?)
Mio: *Sweat Drop* *To Risa* Still, they don't seem to be fazed by all that. They sure are tough.
Risa: *Mischievous Smile* In that case, it's time for plan B.
Both Risa and Mio get up, revealing that way their lower parts like it's nothing, and begin to approach, looking at us with a playful look on their face.
Nana: *Sweat Drop* (Wait, what are they-?!)
Momo: (Ah, I think I know what are they planning to do.)
Ionas: *To Ren* *Serious* Dude, be prepared for whatever they bring us.
Ren: Hm?
When they reach, they sit down beside Ren.
Risa: *Short Giggle* So, Ren?
Ren: *Somewhat Troubled* W-What?
Both of them cling onto his arms, which are being placed between their breasts.
Risa: *Seductive* Have you ever been with another girl before?
Ren: *Blushing And Looking Away* O-Of course not! Don't be ridiculous!
Mio: *Smile* Right, right, you like Lala-Chi, after all.
Risa: *To Ren* You know, *Brings Her Mouth Close To His Ear* *Seductive* We could help you if you want.
Risa begins rubbing with her hand his chest, drawing Ren's attention.
Mio: *To Ren* *Seductive* We can show you how it is to be with a woman. Along with whatever comes with it.
Mio touches him on one of his backside's cheeks, which startles him. I have a bad feeling about my ace.
Risa: *Still Close To His Ear* *Seductive* So, what do you say, champ?
They both get up a bit, and squeeze their breasts at the sides of his head and face. A sandwich-type of move pretty much.
Risa: *Seductive* Are you ready for this experience-
Both Girls: *Seductive* Darling?
*Momo watches with curiosity, while Nana is flustered by the girls' actions*
Ren: *Red Like Tomato And Trembling*
Ren pushes fast the girls a bit away, and jumps off the onsen, with him immediately after running outside while screaming apologies for Lala in the air, supposedly for not being man enough to not get flustered by it.
Both Girls: *Amused Laugh*
Risa: *Wink* And that makes it two out of three!
Mio: *Smile* We are on a roll!
Momo: *Pleased* (I knew it was a good idea to call them! Now Ion is the only one remaining. Let's see YOU now, mister "know it all"!)
Ionas: ... *Annoyed Sigh* *To Himself* My disappointment is immeasurable... If I knew it will go like this, I would have come alone instead of breaking my head about who to call!
Risa: *Playful* Oh, Io~n.
As I look, now both the girls cling onto MY arms, putting them between their breast by that way, just like they did with Ren at the start. Risa takes a look at my "buddy" below the water.
Risa: *Playful* That's some size you have there.
I decide to remain silent as I look at her with a neutral face.
Risa: (The silent treatment, huh?) *Mischievous Smile* You're quite the tough guy when at school, but...
They both press themselves more tightly onto me, making me feel like a sandwich's middle. This feels kinda uncomfortable.
Mio: *Playful* Will this be the case here too, the way things are?
Still not saying a word and look bored at their cockiness.
Risa: *Seductive* We look forward to see what kind of expression you make.
Nana: *Flustered* (I... I can't let them do that! But... I can't just go there and stand in front of him the way I am! I don't have the courage for that. Wha... What am I supposed to do in this crazy situation?!)
~Ten Minutes Later~
After a while, the girls were sitting on their backsides in front of me, trying to catch their breath. All this time, they tried to tease me as much as possible, with them even starting to dance close to me as if they were strippers, one at a time each, while the other one was continuing to tease me about, only for them to eventually sit down, tired after all that trying. As for me-
Ionas: *Still Unfazed* ...
Nuff said. Other than that, "It" couldn't be any harder after all that.
Momo: *Shocked* (I can't believe their attempts couldn't move him, like at all! This is utterly absurd!)
Nana: *Relieved* (Phew, thankfully he hasn't lost it after all that.) *Sweat Drop* (Still, that guy has some SERIOUS nerves of steel to remain THAT calm!)
Risa and Mio are starting to finally catch their breath, and look at my still unfazed self. Let's hope they will see how futile this is, and give up.
Mio: *Sweat Drop* *To Risa* This is getting us nowhere. This guy is impossible to fluster. We should probably just give up and call it a day.
Risa: *Stares At Ion, Feeling In A Way Discontent* ... *To Mio* I'm gonna try one last thing.
Mio: *To Risa* Huh? What are you-?
Risa gets up again, alone this time, walks toward me and passing from above my legs. She stops, standing now right in front of me, and looking at me from above. What now?
Nana: *Blushing And Troubled* (They are still not done yet?!)
Risa: *Looks At Him* ...
Ionas: *Looks At Her* ...
Risa: *Sweat Drop* *Gulps*
Wait, did she just gulped? She crouches as she gets closer and wraps her arms around me, and sits down onto me as she presses her front and breasts on mine, pretty much hugging me, and her face so close to mine, that her nose is touching my own. My "buddy" is now also being pressed between my belly and hers, bringing back in a way that sandwich feeling from before, but on "it". Nothing to worry yet, but not mentioning everything else, I'm starting to feel REALLY uncomfortable with HER hugging me like this!
Risa: *Smile* *Blush* (It seems we are starting to get somewhere.) *Seductive* I hope you don't mind if I hold onto you like this for a moment, Ion.
Where is this going THIS time? Before I realize it, she takes one of her hands off me while leaning a bit backward, giving me some space, and grabs "it", startling me, as I didn't expect that move even from her. Nana, Momo, and EVEN Mio herself were surprised as well by that move.
Risa: *Highly Seductive* You're always so serious... So, I should treat you seriously myself. What do you think of that, big boy?
She is touching, SHE IS TOUCHING!
Risa: (All this time, I never met someone like him. It is always funny, discovering and teasing friends about their shy and embarrassed selves. But he... I tried so hard to see HIS reaction, only for him to still be all serious, till the very end. I can't let him get away with this, without getting to see that side of his. I would obviously never pull such a stunt with any other guy, even Rito, for obvious reasons, but Ion is another story, since he is both serious, careful, AND a nice guy. It is still a bit risky, but it will be SO much fun teasing him about it afterward.) *Giggle*
I have a REAL bad feeling about her intentions.
Nana: *Flustered And Panicking* (IS SHE DOING WHAT I THINK SHE IS DOING?!)
Momo: *Sweat Drop* (How bold of her! Though, I can't help but feel worried with Nana watching that. Hope he gives up before she loses it and runs at them.)
Mio: *Sweat Drop* *To Risa* Risa~, you're going a little too far with thi~s!
Risa: (Let's see if this will work.) *To Ion* *Highly Seductive* I hope you don't mind. I will play with your little "friend" here for a bit. The question now is... In what way to do so?
While still holding "it", she begins to lift and lower herself in front of it, pretending that she is rubbing it with "hers".
Risa: (I will make you feel SO uncomfortable!) *Playful* Should I rub onto "yours" with "mine"? Maybe give it a little "kiss"? Or~...
She lifts herself up again, staying in place, and moves "mine" right below her "own" with her hand.
Risa: *Highly Seductive* Should I just go all the way and see how you handle it? Maybe, maybe not? *Playful Smile* Maybe I will?
When she says the last one, she lowers herself some more, being close to touch the tip- DANGER F*CKING ALERT! I bring quickly my hand forward, and cover my "buddy" with it.
Ionas: *Real Serious* I will ask you to stop right there, and not try anything THAT stupid.
Risa: *Mischievous Smile* Now, Ion, you know it's against the rules to cover your private parts. Unless you think you-
That moment, the hand Risa was using to hold onto my shoulder slips from its sweaty surface, making her lose her balance and fall downward, with her special "place" rubbing onto my hand while falling, and ends up with her backside onto the water in front of me and the ground below. Everyone was understandably worried.
Mio: *Concerned* Risa, are you ok?!
Risa seemed to be startled by the fall, and then her eyes widen a bit, as if in realization.
Risa: I... I almost... *Seemingly Distressed And Sweat Dropping Like Crazy*
If it was not for my hand, we both would lose our virginity in an instant. And she knows that.
Risa: *Real Shocked* I think... *Soft Facepalm* I think I need to take a break... And think...
Risa gets up, gets off the onsen, and walks toward the exit, quite distressed after the experience.
Mio: *Concerned* Risa!
Mio gets off the onsen as well and follows her.
Momo: *Sweat Drop* W-Wait, what about the-?
Mio: *Sweat Drop* Sorry, Momo-Chi, maybe another time! We will wait outside for the end results!
And with that, they both leave, and close the door behind them.
Momo: ...
Nana: *Flustered* (That... Was... So frighteningly close! One mistake and she would... She would end up with his baby the moment it was in!)
[Nana still doesn't know how that works exactly, much to our amusement.]
It is now only me, Momo, and Nana. Need to think of a way to make this quick. Just to avoid any other crazy idea from coming at me like the last one.
Momo: *Sweat Drop* (O-Ok, let's not lose hope just yet. What happened was simply unbelievable, that's true, but if I think carefully I might get an idea that could still help me wi-)
Ionas: Momo?
Momo: Eh?
Ionas: *Looks At Her Everything* *Seductive* You're just precious.
Momo: ... *Cringe* Nope!
Momo gets up, gets off the onsen, and already starts wrapping the towel around her.
Nana: *Real Troubled* (Wait, Momo, where are you-?!)
Momo: *Cringe* I can endure a lot of things, but HIM of all people talking to me in such a manner, don't think so! Sorry, but I'm out!
And like that, she takes her D-Dial, walks past the onsen, and gets out while forcefully closing the door behind her.
Ionas: *Amused Chuckle*
That last bit was so fun! Now...
Ionas: *Looks At Nana* ...
Nana: *Sweat Drop* *Blush* (Oh no, she left me all alone with him! How am I supposed to do this without any support?!)
Ionas: *Closed Eyes* Nana?
Nana: *Flustered* Eh?! Y-Yes? *Notices* (Wait, both his eyes are closed at me?)
Ionas: *Closed Eyes* You haven't talked at all, all this time, and I'm concerned. Look, I don't know in what way she forced you into this, but you don't need to continue this embarrassing challenge anymore, since SHE was not able to. Get off the onsen, and I promise you that I will choose an approapriate punishment for Momo as a payback for you. After all, it's not like you have to prove anything to someone like her or anything.
Nana: ... *Determined*
*Nana Gets Up*
Nana: (I am not here because I was forced to be.)
*Nana Starts To Walk Toward Him*
Ionas: *Closed Eyes*
I can't see, but I suppose she is walking off soon.
Nana: (I am here because I wanted to prove myself.)
Wait, are the in-water-steps getting closer or my hearing is that bad suddenly?
*Nana Stops In Front Of Ion*
Nana: *Blush* (To prove myself to you.)
*Nana Takes A Seat Right Next To Him*
I open my eyes, and see that Nana is sitting beside me. What?! She looks at me with a somewhat determined look.
Nana: *Blushing And Determined* (I can't believe I say this... But you're not going to get me out just like that, Ion.)
Ionas: *Highly Confused* ...
Ok, what the hell is going on here? Why is she-?! Alright focus, Ion, there must be a logical explanation for her to continue this. Just act natural as always. Even under such circumstances. I look straight at her.
Ionas: So... *Raises An Eyebrow* Will you tell me why all this?
Nana: *Avoids Eye Contact Out Of Embarrassment* W-Well... M-Momo challenged me into this, yeah. She said that I wouldn't be able to stay for longer than forty minutes in here, and then provoked me by calling me immature and a child. I couldn't let that slide just like that. *Awkward Smile* Wait till she sees how wrong she was! *Awkward Laugh*
Ionas: ... I see.
Pride then.
Ionas: I can actually relate. That's the reason I'm here to begin with as well.
Nana: *Looks At Ion* *Sweat Drop* *Blush* R-Really?
Ionas: At first I declined, since I thought it was silly, but then she provoked me, much more than I could ignore. So, here I am.
Nana: *Sweat Drop* *Blush* I-I see.
...
Ionas: You know what's funny? *Smile* This is actually my first ever onsen.
Nana: *Somewhat Surprised* For real?
Ionas: Yeah! Though, I never expected it to be like this. You know, with the challenge and the mix part.
Nana: *Sweat Drop* *Awkward Smile* T-Tell me about it.
...
*Meanwhile outside, while Saruyama was still unconscious, with Risa and Mio nearby as well, with the latter comforting the first, Momo was doing something on the other side of the walls with her D-Dial while no one was looking*
Momo: *Sweat Drop* (I knew it was a good idea to put a small camera inside the onsen while no one was watching. Now let's see what those two are doing in there. I'm quite worried after letting Nana all alone in there. I was so frustrated that I totally forgot about her!)
*Pressing a few more buttons on it, she gains access to the said small camera, having now view of the onsen inside*
Momo: Good. (Now let's see...)
*She moves the camera around, till she notices Nana sitting beside Ion*
Momo: *Sweat Drop* Eh? What is this? (Nana is sitting right beside him?! That's unexpectedly bold of her! It seems that I underestimated her more than I should. Wonder how things will move on now. Too bad I can't use the sound button to hear them too, but I need to attract as little attention around me as possible. In case any of the others come looking for me.)
*We are going back inside, at the silent duo*
This silence is really uncomfortable with her beside me. She is trying to avoid looking at me as much as possible. I take a careful look at her body. Undeveloped, yes, but it suits so much her character that it's charming in its own way.
Nana: *Blushing And Seemingly Annoyed* D-Don't look at me like that, just because the rules allow you to, you pervert.
Ionas: *Realization* Oh, *Awkward And Genuinely Blushing* sorry, I didn't actually mean to.
*Outside at Momo*
Momo: *Looking At The Whole Thing* (Wait...) *Surprised* (Ion is blushing?! Like, REALLY blushing?! I have seen him dealing with a LOT of embarrassing situations in the past, but never actually blushing for any of those!)
*Momo thinks about it for a moment*
Momo: (Could it be... Ok, if this is not a sign that he likes her, then I don't know what else could it be.) *Smile* (Learning this puts me at ease a little. Nana, you're lucky and you don't even know how much.)
*Momo looks at the timer in her D-Dial for a bit, which shows to not need much longer to ring, before deciding to deactivate it*
Momo: *Playful Smile* (They can handle a bit of heat for some more time. Being more durable than a human and all. I'm sure they will not mind. On the contrary considering...)
*Back to our duo*
Nana: *Sigh* It's ok, I forgive you. I know you're not like other guys. *Blush* "I" should apologize for making this more awkward for you.
Nana... You're so much more different than the easy to anger tsundere I used to know... Not in a bad way, though.
Ionas: If there is anyone we should blame here, that's Momo. It was HER idea all this, after all.
Nana: You know what? You're right. *Somewhat Annoyed* That Momo and her crazy ideas. *Blush* (But... I guess it's not that bad... I got to spend some alone time with you. Still embarrassing though, considering...)
*Pointing out the fact they are naked*
Ionas: Let's change subject, while we wait for Momo to officially end this challenge. Remember that time you surprised me in the training room?
Nana: *Sweat Drop* You were THAT close to stab me through the face.
Ionas: Thank God that didn't happen. *Smile* Or our time together in the summer festival.
Nana: *Sweat Drop* *Smile* You shot yourself in the eye with the fake bullet after missing a target in that game.
Ionas: *Smile* And that time with the girl stalkers at school?
Nana: *Amused* You were so troubled because of them following you around that time, that I couldn't just leave you like that. *Short Giggle*
We kept on talking about all the funny stuff that happened to us all this time, and it feels like a century has passed so far in here. I hope Momo didn't forget to activate the timer or something and we are waiting here for nothing.
Nana: *Sweat Drop* It's taking some time, doesn't it?
Ionas: Yeah, I was wondering about it too.
Nana: ... *Blush* Ion?
Ionas: Yes, what is it?
Nana: ... *Shakes Head And Smiles* Nothing. (I was thinking about confessing, but this is not the place, nor the time for that. He might think that I'm an actual pervert if I confess naked like this! Let's not be stupid now.) The timer is probably broken or something.
Nana gets up and wraps the towel around her, before getting off the onsen. She then turns and extends a hand to me.
Nana: *Smile* This will never end if we just stay in here. After all, I think I have proven myself more than necessary. Now come on, the others are waiting for us.
Ionas: ... *Smile* Sure.
That time I told that you were the most mature of them all, I was not lying. And I'm happy to see I am still truthful about it.
*Outside at Momo*
Momo: *Sigh* I guess I was asking for too much.
Mio: What you were asking for too much, Momo-Chi?
Momo: *Startled* Ah!
*Momo closes her phone fast, before turning around to face Risa, Mio, and Saruyama*
Momo: *Sweat Drop* *Smile* N-Nothing! I-It's just that... Right! The timer is done, so Ion has won! Much to my frustration. Anyway, let's go see them.
*Back To Our Duo*
After finally tying the towel around my waist and lower, which is much harder than I expected, I was ready to go with Nana out.
Ionas: Ready, let's go.
We start to walk together toward the exit.
Nana: Oh, by the way, Kotegawa asked for us to become members of her Disciplinary Committee.
Ionas: *Somewhat Surprised* Really now?
Nana: What do you think. Wanna-?
Ionas: WHOA!
Before I know it, my foot slips onto the wet ground, having as a result to fall downward, and use my hands to end up on all my four just in time, avoiding any possible injury.
Ionas: *Relieved* Phew!
Nana: *Sweat Drop* Ion, are you- WHOA!
I notice Nana slipping, and about to fall as well. Without thinking, I roll to the side, losing my towel as a result, and grab her just before she falls onto the ground, which makes her own towel fall off her and to the side. She was now lying above me, with both of us looking at each other face to face, close, and completely naked. Nana is understandably flustered.
Ionas: ... *Amused* You know what? It's funny really. We keep on blaming Rito for every accidental fall that occurs when nearby, but we never look at our own little accidents. You agree with me?
Nana: *Blush* ... *Amused Pfft* I guess you're right. *Somewhat Annoyed* He is still-
Ionas: *Rolls Eyes* Yes, he is still hyperbolic when it comes to his, I totally agree.
After a short silence, we both laugh, amused by the whole thing, with none of us caring anymore about our embarrassing situation. Odd for her, but maybe she now understands that I don't really mind such accidents and situations, for her to worry and fluster about.
*The Door Opens*
We hear the door opening, and see Momo and the others, with Ren as exception, getting inside, wearing their usual clothing.
Momo: Alright, time's up- *Notices*
Everyone notice us with surprise in our awkward positioning, which makes it uncomfortable for the both of us.
Risa: *Playful Smile* Oh~, it looks like we came in a bad time.
Mio: *To Ion And Nana* *Playful Smile* How bold of you!
Nana: *Flustered* Th-That's not-!
Ionas: *Serious* Nana!
Nana stops and looks at me, as I grab her towel and present it to her.
Ionas: *Serious* Just get up and get dressed. And for God's sake just ignore them.
Nana: *Blush* ...
Nana gets off me, and wraps the towel I gave her around her like before, still feeling a bit embarrassed, and with me getting up as well to do the same.
Ionas: *To Risa* It was an accident. The floor being slippery and all. I see you're back to your usual self, Risa.
Risa: *Rubs Her Head Out Of Embarrassment* *Smile* He-he, just needed some time to calm down. That moment was quite scary.
Ionas: *Shakes Head* And then you wonder why I warn you about your perverted behavior, and that being a factor to cause you trouble.
Risa: *Sweat Drop* Yeah... Real sorry for that.
Ionas: It's ok. Nothing bad happened after all in the end.
Saruyama: *Sweat Drop* Seriously what did I miss while I was out cold? (Also I can't believe I fell like that!)
Ionas: Nothing important to know, trust me.
Momo: *Smile* SO, now that that is over with, *Turns Around Toward The Exit* how about we all get back in the house and-?
I grab Momo by one of her shoulders to stop her right there.
Ionas: Momo. You don't think I forgot about the challenge's reward, do you?
Momo: *Sweat Drop* ...
Ionas: Get ready for it. *Smile* It will be quite the... Experience.
~Some Time Later~At The Living Room~
*The Music "The Zeibekiko Of Evdokia" Plays Through Ion's Phone*
Ionas: *Claps His Hands In The Rhythm* Dance, Momo, Dance!
Everyone was watching Momo trying to do the Greek dance I forced her to dance, after showing her what is it about first. Well, everyone except Ren, which I learned from the others he left the house in a hurry, as if he was being hunted down or something. Poor Ren. Took his defeat too seriously. Anyway, we were watching Momo, stumbling about as she was dancing in a circling manner, due to how the dance works, and yes it is hilarious to watch.
Nana: *Sweat Drop* ... What is the dance's name again?
Ionas: It is called "The Zeibekiko Of Evdokia". We, the Greeks, also like refering to this dance as "the stumbling", cause most of the steps in it are pretty much really careful stumbling steps. Also it's always funny watching an amateur trying to do it, so... *To Momo* *Amused* Move those legs and feet faster, Momo!
It is obvious that Momo is not enjoying being humiliated like this, so that makes it EVEN better for me.
Momo: *While Dancing* *Sweat Drop* (I should seriously stop trying to antagonize him...)
Mea: Ion-Senpai is once again mad at me... Why must he always be so mean?
Kremant: Have you thought of doing something nice for him to not be?
Mea: OH, that's a great idea! But, what?
Kremant: Think about it. Next time on To Love-Ru: Abduction!
Mea: Maybe I could-
Kremant: I suggest you to think HARDER about it.
