Fate/Kyon's Order: Alter Egos in Chaldea
A Haruhi Suzumiya & Fate/Grand Order Crossover
by Derald Snyder
Part 4: Kuyou Suou
It was pandemonium in the Summoning Chamber, alarms blaring, the lighting in the room having turned red as the human staff scrambled to escape, the servants in the area materializing their weapons to try and defend against the extraterrestrial being known as Kuyou Suou...
...who had not moved from her position since apparently having been summoned by Haruhi Suzumiya, the reality warper still frozen with shock as she stared the alien in the eyes.
And then, the alarm abruptly cut off, the lights returning to normal as Yuki Nagato raised her arms. "Everyone, calm yourselves!" she said in a rare show of raising her voice. "I know what has occurred, there is no cause for alarm!"
"No cause for alarm?!" Edison roared, both he and Tesla in battle stances, the latter's hands sparking with electricity.
"Is this alien not your antithesis?!" Tesla pointed out.
"She is not the true Kuyou Suou," Yuki asserted. "Rather, she is a copy that was recorded to the Throne of Heroes after the Seraphix incident was resolved. An Alter Ego, in other words."
"Alter Ego?!" Haruhi gasped, "As in, the class?"
"Yes," Kuyou suddenly spoke, "I am... Alter Ego. True Name... Kuyou Suou." She stepped forward, eyes still locked with Haruhi. "I ask... are you... my Master?"
Haruhi blinked for a moment, her expression then hardening. "Yes, I am your Master," she said firmly, gently nudging Edison and Tesla aside. Walking up to the alien, she gripped her ear and pinched, taking a small measure of satisfaction at hearing her gasp in pain, before forcing her down to her knees. "That means what I say goes. You obey my orders to the letter. You defy me, this pain you feel now will feel like nothing compared to what I'll do to you. Got it?!"
"-Yes!" Kuyou gasped out. "Yes, I will obey! Stop hurting me!"
"Just making sure you understand," Haruhi said as she let go, pulling Kuyou back to her feet. "Yuki-chan, how about you take us to your room? I'd feel slightly safer there."
"Understood. Blossom-san should still be there as well," the interface agreed, the three women promptly teleporting away.
"...Okay, I think we can stand down for now," Da Vinci let her breath out in a rush. "Seems they have the situation under control..."
"Under control my foot!" a Clock Tower mage protested as he came back into the room. "You're willing to allow another alien to establish a foothold here?! One that's apparently opposed you in the past, to boot!"
"I understand where Miss Nagato is coming from," the genius replied. "After all, if that alien came to kill us all, I highly doubt you would be breathing right now. She didn't even move until addressed directly!"
"That doesn't mean she won't go on a killing spree later, after she thinks she's gained our trust!" the mage countered.
"I'm sure Miss Nagato has things well in hand for now," Da Vinci shook her head with a smile. "At the very least, she has proven herself to be trustworthy. Isn't that right, Kyon~?"
"Yare yare," Kyon sighed. "You're right, Da Vinci-san... though, I kinda see where this mage is coming from. I don't have fond memories of Kuyou myself... But if Nagato-san says she's no threat, I'm willing to take her at her word. She wouldn't say something like that if she wasn't certain about it..."
"Well, let us hope you're right!" the mage huffed...
*Yuki's Room*
"Oh, great. YOU just had to show up here, didn't you?" BB sighed as she looked upon Kuyou. "You know, taking care of Beast III/R would've been a lot easier without you going and merging with her!"
"Beast... three... R?" Kuyou tilted her head in confusion.
"Kiara Sessyoin," Haruhi elaborated. "You know, black hair, golden eyes, dresses like a nun?" Kuyou abruptly gasped in realization, her body shuddering as if in fear.
"Your reaction indicates that your fusion with Kiara was not done willingly," Yuki observed.
"No... it was... horrible!" Kuyou shivered again. "It was... nightmare! That must be... a nightmare!"
"Oh, I get it now," Haruhi comprehended. "You were trying to say 'arigato'(thank you) just before I warped you out of there... And then the original made a copy in the Throne as thanks."
"Yes, that is what I... the original did," Kuyou nodded. "Am I... talking... speaking... okay? You can... understand me?"
"Sure can," Haruhi nodded.
"That would be another reason Kuyou created this copy," Yuki postulated. "The summoning automatically grants a Heroic Spirit knowledge of the language used in the region that they are summoned to. And Kuyou Suou has always had trouble with communication."
"Yes. Language... is hard. But this is... a breakthough. Is that how you say it?"
"I guess that would be a problem for aliens and Foreigners," BB nodded. "Most alien entities would probably just try to possess a human that's closest to their wavelength, so to speak..."
"Yeah, but the Data Entity's advanced enough to make their own human interfaces, case in point," Haruhi gestured to Yuki. "Aaaanyway, we're getting slightly off-topic here. Kuyou, do you have all the memories of your original self?"
"...If you are talking about... memories as a 'human interface', as you put it... then yes," Kuyou said slowly. "But the original has_me from telling you some things..." She blinked as she realized something. "Er... has... blocked. Prevented. Disallowed."
"So there's some things you can't tell us, huh?" BB frowned. "Guess she doesn't want you spilling classified stuff to a rival faction..." She nodded towards Yuki.
"Understandable," Yuki concurred.
"Well, can you tell us why you went to SERAPH in the first place?" Haruhi asked.
"Yes. It was... different from other singularities... that I... we observed."
"By 'we', you mean the Sky Canopy Domain, your faction."
"...Yes. I was... exploring... when she showed up. Kiara. I tried... to talk to her... but then she... she..."
"She absorbed you."
"Yes... horrible. Nightmare."
"Well, it's all over with now. She's dead," Haruhi laid a hand on her shoulder. "Me and Yuki and BB here made sure of that."
"We sure did!" BB smiled. "Although, we can't forget Melt's contribution, either..."
"Melt...?"
"Meltryllis," Yuki elaborated. "She sacrificed herself to ensure Kiara's permanent demise."
"Yeah, but I managed to save her data in the Throne, kinda like what you did. I was the one who made her, after all," BB pointed out. "Unlike you, though she probably won't remember anything if she gets summoned here. But, them's the breaks."
"The breaks...?" Kuyou tilted her head in confusion.
"Okay, we're gonna have to teach you about metaphors," Haruhi sighed. "She means it can't be helped, so we just have to accept it."
"Oh. I understand... I think."
"Wait, I just got an idea!" BB snapped her fingers. "Since Kiara used your powers to control Kingprotea, that means you could fix what Kiara did to her!"
"Definition of King Protea?" Kuyou inquired. "Are not kings men? Male?"
"She's named after a type of flower called 'kingprotea'," Haruhi pointed out. "We can go look it up later. The important thing is, Kiara used your powers to brainwash one of BB's daughters to try and kill me. We want you to make it so that she doesn't try to kill me anymore. Can you do that?"
"...I can try," Kuyou replied.
"I'll help guide you through her source code, so you don't erase something you're not supposed to," BB said.
"And I insist on supervising," Yuki added. "Keep in mind, Blossom-san, that no room save Fantasia Resort has enough room for Kingprotea to materialize properly, unless you go outside."
"Oh, don't you worry, Nagato," BB winked, "I've already got that covered!"
"But before we do that, we should probably take Kuyou to Da Vinci for questioning," Haruhi said. "I'm sure she's gonna have a million questions for her, not to mention make sure she's trustworthy."
"I already said I would obey anything you ordered me to do, Master," Kuyou asserted. "You do not believe me?"
"I want to believe you, but given that your original self's tried to kill me outright in the past, can you blame me for being a little suspicious?" Haruhi pointed out.
"But... Fujimaru told me to kill you," Kuyou said defensively. "I did not understand... back then..."
"What, you didn't realize that a human dies when you kill them?" BB half-snarked.
*Chaldea Kitchen*
"Ah-choooo!" Emiya suddenly sneezed violently.
"HEY! What are you doing?! You can't sneeze on the food like that, it gets contaminated!" Tamamo Cat complained. Before the archer or Tamamo could react, she had already grabbed Emiya's cooking and dumped the whole thing into the trash! "Start over! Honestly, you're the head chef, you should be setting the example for the rest of us, woof!"
"Sorry," Emiya groaned as he rubbed his nose. "I have NO idea where that came from..."
*Yuki's Room*
"So, I was thinking maybe you could prove yourself in a similar manner as BB did," Haruhi suggested. "You'll come with us next time we rayshift. You'll be doing your best to protect the humans, Ritsuka and Gudako, from getting attacked."
"Of course, we realize that your abilities may not be on par with your original," Yuki spoke up. "So, you should try to work with the other servants. Understood?"
"Understood. I will do my best," Kuyou nodded.
"It's settled then. I'll ask Da Vinci if she can arrange for a supply sortie tomorrow," Haruhi said. "Might as well bring Asagami-san along, too, see how she does in an actual combat situation."
"How about you take Lip along, too? She could probably use the exercise!" BB suggested.
"Not a bad idea," Haruhi nodded...
*And so, the next day...*
"Figures we'd be fighting Spartan soldiers!" Haruhi sighed, looking down to the far end of the battlefield, where a shadow servant in the form of Leonidas was giving orders. "Lip, Asagami-san, try to break their formation!"
"Right!" "Yes, Master!" Passionlip fired her claws into the opposing army's ranks, killing some of them and sending several scattering. Meanwhile, Asagami used her esper powers to twist the ground beneath another group of Spartans, sending them tumbling head over heels!
"Don't give up! Advance!" Shadow Leonidas yelled. "Tonight we dine in HELL!" The soldiers roared, pressing forward despite the servants' attempts to disrupt them!
"Do it, Koyo!" Gudako ordered, her loyal berserker assuming her T-Rex form and immolating a few Spartans with her flame breath, then enlarging her arms and knocking down a few more!
"There's too many of them!" Ritsuka cried. "Mordred, by my command spell, unleash your Noble Phantasm!"
"You got it, Master!" Mordred grinned as her helmet disassembled, holding her sword before her, which was engulfed in red lighting! "Clarent Blood Arthur!" She brought her sword down, several Spartans screaming in agony as the lightning electrocuted them!
"Dammit, where's Kuyou at?!" Haruhi grunted as she looked around the battle field. "I look away for one moment...!"
"Don't give up, Spartans!" Shadow Leonidas roared. "This is what we have trained f-"
"Die." A hand suddenly went through the shadow's chest! Leonidas turned to see Kuyou behind him, before crying out in agony as the alien ripped out his spiritual core and crushed it in her hands! The shadow servant promptly collapsed and dissipated into black smoke that blew away in the wind.
"LEONIDAS!" "Our king has fallen!" "What will we do now?!" "Flee! Flee for your lives!" The Spartan army promptly lost their nerve and scattered, fleeing in a panic.
"Yeah, that's right! Run away, you stupid idiots!" Gudako taunted after them.
"Figures. You kill the leader and they scatter like roaches," Mordred muttered as she sheathed her sword, mildly disappointed.
"Alright, start looking for anything salvageable on the the field," Ritsuka directed. "We can have Da Vinci convert shields into Proofs of Hero for ascension..."
"Got it," the Knight of Treachery nodded, heading towards the armaments discarded by the Spartans' hasty retreat, Kijyo Koyo reverting to human form before doing the same.
"I wish I could help, but I can't really carry anything..." Passionlip sighed.
"Couldn't we store the stuff we find in your chest area?" Haruhi suggested. "Yuki can help retrieve it when we rayshift back..."
"Oh! That's a good idea! Thank you, Miss Suzumiya!" Lip exclaimed happily.
"Haruhi is fine," the reality warper smiled back, only for said smile to vanish as Kuyou approached her.
"Master, I have killed the shadow servant and retrieved the Holy Grail," Kuyou stated, holding the chalice in her hands. "Did I do... good? Okay?"
"Set that down," Haruhi said stoically, the alien promptly doing so. She then walked up and grabbed Kuyou's wrist, twisting painfully, the servant crying out as she fell to her knees! "You disobeyed my orders, Alter Ego! I told you to help protect Ritsuka and Gudako, not kill the leader! Yes, what you did was a good thing, but you broke your promise to me!"
"Ahhh! Gomen! I'm sorry!" Kuyou cried in agony.
"What are you doing?!" Gudako protested, running up to the duo. "You don't hurt your servant like that! Stop it!" She tried to pull Haruhi's arm away to no avail.
"Gudako-chan, you don't understand!" Haruhi turned her head to address her. "This alien's original self tried to literally murder me in the past, and damn near succeeded! She also tried to kill Ritsuka! How can I trust this one if she doesn't obey and goes off on her own?! She could easily do to me or him what she just did to that shadow servant when our guards are down! I can't take that chance!"
"But she's not the same person! You just said that!" Gudako shot back.
"Alright, enough," Ritsuka said as he walked up. "Suzumiya, I think you got your point across to Kuyou. Please let her go." Haruhi glanced back at him for a moment, before finally releasing the alien's wrist. "Look, I understand your concern, but I don't think pain is a good way to get a servant to obey. We never had to do that with Joan..."
"But Ritsuka, she's an alien," Haruhi sighed. "Her thought processes and ethics are completely different from ours! Pain is the only language that I know she'll understand! Look, I don't mind having her as an ally, but I'm not stupid enough to trust her blindly! There's a reason I'm being so strict with her, as opposed to Asagami-san here!"
"I'm willing to twist her if she disobeys again, Master," Fujino offered.
"No! You won't do that! That's wrong!" Gudako yelled at her.
"Gudako-chan's right. I'd rather punish her myself, with all due respect," Haruhi agreed. "I appreciate the offer, though."
"...As you wish," Asagami sighed.
"Well, you know, I'm the Knight of Treachery, so I probably have no damn right to speak here," Mordred grunted as she came up holding an armful of shields, "but don't you think using pain to make someone obey you might make them turn on you anyway?"
"Well, like I just said, I'm only doing it to get my point across," Haruhi sighed. "It's not like I'm being excessive here..."
"I think you were," Gudako pouted.
"Well, why don't we see what Da Vinci thinks? We'll ask her when we get back," Ritsuka offered.
"Alright, fine." "Sounds good to me!" Haruhi and Gudako agreed.
"Good. In the meantime, Kuyou, can you help get our gathered materials into Passionlip's chest storage?"
"Yes, Master Ritsuka," Kuyou nodded, taking some of the shields from Mordred...
*Back at Chaldea...*
"Hm, I see," Da Vinci nodded slightly. "Well, I can see both sides of the argument have a point... Master Haruhi Suzumiya. Are you sure you aren't projecting a desire for revenge onto Kuyou Suou?"
"Wha-?! Revenge?!" Haruhi protested. "That's not true! I'm just being strict with her! That's all!"
"You've been on edge ever since she was summoned," the genius pointed out. "Are you sure you aren't, say, making a lot of work for your friend Koizumi-san?"
"Uh..." Haruhi's pupils shrank to pinpricks. "Shit. I didn't even think of that..."
"Maybe you should spar with that Sisigou and blow off some steam?" Ritsuka suggested.
"Sisigou? Nah, I think I'll spar with Martha instead," Haruhi shook her head. "She can help me work through my issues at the same time, after all. And before you say anything, Da Vinci-san, yes, I know what I'm getting myself into. You don't need to worry."
"Why would you worry about Martha? Isn't she, like, a saint?" Gudako asked.
"Martha's a... special case," Ritsuka sighed.
"In the meantime, Kuyou needs to be under Yuki's supervision," Haruhi said. "She's the only other one I can trust to keep an eye on her."
"Understood. I will go to her," Kuyou bowed in obedience.
"Very well, I suppose we're done here," Da Vinci concluded. "I'm glad you came to me with this straight away. The last thing we need is for differences between Masters to rend us asunder at a critical juncture..."
"Right." "Of course." "You bet!"
*And so...*
"...Well, I can understand where Haruhi's coming from," Kyon said as he sat with Yuki and Kuyou at a booth in Salon de Marie. "But yeah, Koizumi-san said he'd probably be busy for a while..."
"Does he require assistance?" Yuki inquired.
"He said he'd let me know if he did," Kyon replied, taking a bite of his pork bun.
"Assistance? With what?" Kuyou asked, confused.
"Never mind. We'll tell you later," Kyon sighed. "You aren't going to eat anything, Kuyou?"
"Eat? I... I don't know... how to eat," the alien admitted. "I... my original self tried to eat_once. Er, ramen noodles. It... didn't work. I choked."
"You choked on ramen?!" Kyon said incredulously.
"Wow. Ramen's literally the easiest thing to eat, and you failed at that?!" Another voice spoke up, Joan walking up to the table in her Shinjuku attire. "I know you're an alien, but wow, that's epic fail right there."
"Who are you?" Kuyou asked.
"Me? I'm Jeanne D'Arc Alter. If that's too much of a mouthful for you, you can just call me Joan instead. Anyway, I just wanted to meet the second servant ever to trigger a CD-0019 alert."
"What is that?"
"It basically means that a potentially hostile servant has been summoned by the Fate summoning system," Kyon explained. "Joan here was the first to trigger that alert. She was our primary enemy in the first singularity in France..."
"Yeah, I was made by Gilles de Rais as an object of vengeance after the original saint got burned at the stake," Joan elaborated. "So after that damn saint and Ritsuka kicked my ass, I managed to resummon myself and make a group of 'fake' servants like myself, not to mention make several imitations of Da Vinci's Mona Lisa craft essence..."
"Definition of craft essence?" Kuyou asked.
"I'll explain that later," Kyon cut in. "Point is, Joan's actions got under Da Vinci's skin to the point she actually rayshifted with Fujimaru-san to help deal with Joan the second time... anyway, Fujimaru-san discreetly made an offer to Joan to come join us after they beat her again, which she eventually accepted."
"Why would you join with your enemy?" Kuyou asked Joan.
"...I just wanted to be accepted," Joan admitted, averting her gaze. "Master gave me a glimmer of hope, and I went for it. That's all."
"It was a bit rough at first," Kyon admitted. "Hell, even I kinda kept my distance at the start... thankfully, we already had an Avenger-class servant in the form of Edmond Dantes, the Count of Monte Cristo. He took charge of her and helped her assimilate into the community. It helped that Jeanne D'Arc herself held no grudge, and even thought of Joan as a little sister..."
"Barf. Don't even get me started on that. We are NOT sisters," Joan sighed.
"I... do not understand. About sisters," Kuyou spoke up.
"It's complicated," Kyon shrugged. "Let's just say, the original Jeanne had a bunch of siblings in life, but none of them were recorded to the Throne, so she's felt a little lonely..."
"Oh. I understand... I think."
"Whatever. Let's change the subject," Joan insisted. "So, uh... you made a singularity in Kyon's hometown, right? Why'd you do that, anyway?"
"Because they did. Yuki Nagato... faction. Home."
"I think what she's trying to say is that her faction, the Sky Canopy Domain, saw what Nagato's faction, the ISDE, did in emulating a singularity, and decided to do the same, especially after Nagato-san joined Chaldea proper," Kyon elaborated.
"Oh, so monkey see, monkey do, huh," Joan said. "And you chose Kyon's hometown because you knew it'd get your rival's attention, right?"
"Well... yes," Kuyou admitted. "But I cannot say anything else about it. Forbidden."
"Understood," Yuki spoke up. "Then we will not pry any further for the time being."
"So why'd you come here, then?" Joan pressed. "I heard rumors of some weird singularity that brought all these new freaks here... did you have something to do with that?"
"I did not make that singularity... I don't want to talk about it. Horrible. Nightmare." Kuyou shuddered.
"That bad, huh?" Joan raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah, and Haruhi ended up saving her," Kyon said. "That's why Kuyou put a copy in the Throne, out of gratitude."
"Yes. I hope... Master can trust me..." Kuyou sighed. "She_that I... er... disliked that I did not follow orders today."
"I was observing what happened," Yuki spoke up again. "Even though you technically disobeyed, it is clear that you did not act out of malice, but to ensure the battle ended in Chaldea's victory. So I will give you the benefit of the doubt this time."
Kuyou turned to look Yuki in the eye. "...Thank you."
"Well, if someone like ME can get accepted here, I'm sure you could, too," Joan pointed out. "Well, if you'll excuse me, I gotta head down to Fantasia Resort for a volleyball game. I'm gonna beat that damn saint for sure this time! Later." With that, she turned on her heel and left.
"...I thought they were playing on the same team, according to the lineup," Yuki said after the avenger was out of earshot.
"She probably doesn't know that. Remind me to stay clear of the volleyball courts for the time being," Kyon snarked. Finishing the last of his pork bun, he wiped his hands on his napkin before saying, "Anyway, how about we head to the simulation room and check on Haruhi? She and Martha should be finishing up by now..."
"Understood," Yuki agreed, she and Kuyou standing up.
*Simulation Room*
The trio watched as Haruhi and Martha went at it, both wearing boxing gloves, the former wearing protective headgear. "Are they... fighting?" Kuyou asked.
"It's called sparring," Kyon responded. "It's like fighting, but they're not trying to seriously hurt or kill each other. It's more like practice than anything."
"I understand. Maybe Master and I can... 'spar' sometime then," Kuyou suggested.
"Probably should wait a week or two before you ask," Kyon advised. "Anyway, looks like they're done." The trio watched as Haruhi and Martha relaxed their stances, the former removing her headgear before meeting the saint in a friendly hug. Their lips moved, though they couldn't hear what was being said. The two then separated and doffed their boxing gloves, before exiting the simulation room. "Yo, Haruhi. Feeling better?"
"Yeah, much better," the brunette nodded. "Thanks again for helping me get my issues off my chest, Martha."
"Certainly, Master," Martha nodded and smiled serenely. "I have to say, that was a rather... unique confessional, though quite satisfying. Oh, John Smith, hello. Er, were you watching?"
"We just got here," Kyon replied. "You know, you don't have to be ashamed about knowing how to fight with your fists. From what I read in the Bible, you and Mary kinda grew up in a tough neighborhood."
"Y-yes, we did," Martha averted her gaze. "I was a bit rough and tumble before meeting the Messiah, I admit... though I supposed it served me well for surviving my pilgrimages later in life. But enough about me. It seems the object of your frustration is here as well, Haruhi."
"Yeah..." Haruhi strode up to Kuyou, looking her in the eye. "I won't apologize for what I did earlier... but maybe I'm being a bit too harsh. I do understand why you did what you did, but next time, at least tell me what you're going to do first, okay?"
"Understood," Kuyou bowed from the waist. "I promise I will tell you next time."
"Well~, good to hear everyone's all happy and reconciled now~!" BB said as she skipped into the room. "So, I've got everything ready for Protea's de-brainwashing, if you and Nagato can come with me," she addressed Kuyou.
"I will try," the alien Alter Ego nodded.
"Well, we should let Da Vinci-san know, too," Kyon said.
"I will contact her," Yuki assented.
"Well, please come to me again next time you need to confess your sins and troubles!" Martha called after them as they departed.
*A short time later...*
"So, why are we doing this in Yuki's room?" Haruhi asked fairly.
"Because I don't have my own room yet!" BB replied matter-of-factly. She and the two aliens were gathered around a white meter-by meter cube with Kingprotea's face on the front side, Haruhi, Kyon and Da Vinci observing from a distance. "I mean, seriously! Vio and Lip get a room and I don't?!"
"Well, you were effectively being held prisoner in Kyon's room for a day and a half," the acting director pointed out. "Not to mention you all just arrived suddenly with no warning. While we're on the subject, I would suggest moving Koizumi to his own room and having Kuyou stay with Nagato for the time being, at least until we can be certain that she's trustworthy."
"I have no objection to this arrangement," Yuki said. "As for Koizumi-san..." On cue, the door opened revealing the esper in question, though he looked a bit tired.
"Oh my. I came back here to rest, but it seems that won't be happening for the time being," Koizumi sighed.
"Don't worry, this won't take long~!" BB assured him. "And then you can saw logs all you like!"
"Saw logs?" Kuyou asked, confused.
"Another metaphor. Some people's snoring sounds like a man sawing through a log," Kyon explained.
"I am fairly certain I don't snore," Koizumi sighed as he joined his friends.
"On occasion, but not too loudly," Kyon stated. "Kinda how Koizumi-san is in general... annoying, but not enough to make me throw something at him."
"Behave, Kyon," Haruhi said facetiously. "Okay, anytime you guys are ready."
"Alright, then here we go! Kuyou, follow my lead!" BB instructed, the trio placing their hands on the cube, staring intensely into it... Their speech then became distorted and warbling, though none of them spoke at the same time... After a minute or so, they simultaneously straightened up and stepped back. "Done!" BB exclaimed. "Good work! OK then, decompression time~!"
"What?!" Haruhi gasped. "Wait, not here! The room's not big enough!"
"Stop, BB!" Da Vinci ordered as the cube began to glow.
"Too late! Here she comes~!" There was a bright flash of light that blinded all present...
But when Haruhi regained her sight, she didn't see giant limbs in front of her, nor was the ceiling cracked. Instead, a young girl stood between BB, Yuki and Kuyou, with hair the same shade as BB's going down to her feet, bandages over her left eye and on her arms, wearing a modest off-the-shoulders wedding dress. Her uncovered eye then opened, the same shade of purple as her hair... "Hello... I'm Kingprotea, an Alter Ego... Wow, is everyone big? Or am I... small?"
"Um, small. Definitely small," Kyon spoke up. Haruhi, meanwhile had her mouth agape in shock.
"See~? You should have more faith in BB-chan!" BB said with a knowing wide grin.
*To be continued...*
