"...My...your quite the... joker aren't you Michael," Koizumi began to chuckle lightly. I looked over to him. What the hell was he laughing about. He knows everything! You can't play it out that he's insane.

"So I do have to show you proof then," Michael sighed then looked at the table in the middle of the room. Suddenly without warning the table exploded into a million pieces. The small shards of splinters however froze in the air. I let out a gasp as I watched the splinters floating in the middle of the air. This was something that I would see from a action movie, something like the Matrix or Inception, but no, this was happening in front of me right now. Then in sudden rapid movements the table literally pulled itself back together again. We took a moment to stare at the table, it was like nothing ever happened to it. This was when I began to feel scared of this guy. Without a doubt this guy was the real deal.

"So, you will help me get Haruhi's powers or I will start killing," Michael then said.

"H...h...h...ho...how did you...erm..d...d...d," Mikuru tried to speak.

"How d-d-d-d-did I d-d-d-do that?" I clenched my fists as he teased her harshly. "I wished it to happen. Come on you can't all be stupid. We've concluded I have the same powers as her, I wish for it, it happens. But it isn't enough which is why I need Haruhi's powers."

"Why?" I suddenly asked in spite.

"Because I will become a true god then," Michael grinned to me with a smile that shows there is no ounce of good in him. I wanted to punch this guy but I couldn't, he was as powerful as Haruhi, maybe stronger, he'd do to me what he did to the table.

"It's quite odd that you're here, the esper, alien and time traveller I understand but you just a normal human. What significance do you have here?" he suddenly said walking over to me. His eyes were locked onto mine which was slightly unnerving.

"He hasn't any. He's just a normal person," Koizumi quickly said in my defence. I could see over Michael's shoulders that everyone has nervous looks, everyone apart from Nagato but I could see the slight change in her eyes to know she was nervous.

"If that's the case then you've seen too much," Michael grinned. Suddenly I felt pressure against my neck, as if I was being strangled, I couldn't breath. I glared at Michael as my fists clenched tightly. I didn't want to seem like a complete weakling so I kept my stance and glare. But I knew I wouldn't last long.

"Got something to say? Something caught at the back of your throat?" He mocked me. I now knew there was no one else alive right now that I hate as much as him. In the end I could take it anymore and my hand went to my throat as I a throttling noise escaped my lips.

"Kyon? Michael stop it!" Koizumi shouted.

"K..K...Kyon!" Mikuru screamed with her hands over her mouth.

"Damn it Michael stop it!" Koizumi shouted again slamming his fists on the table. Suddenly a loud bang echoed the room. We were all surprised at how quick it was. But for a moment Michael was glaring at me with a smug grin and now he's suddenly pressed against the locker by Nagato! She had him held by the throat with one hand while in the other she seemed to be holding a rather sharp stake of wood. Where did she get that?

"Let him go or suffer termination," Nagato spoke in her monotone. Michael looked down to her then slowly started to laugh.

"So whatever significance he has must be big... or is he your boyfriend?" Michael grinned to her. Nagato didn't seemed phased by the slightest. But I felt the pressure against my windpipe just disappear. I was able to breath again and not a moment too soon, I was sure I looked slightly blue. I fell down to my knees and hackled coughs. It was then that Nagato let go of him and stepped back, dropping the wooden stake. Michael looked down at the weapon to see it was full of sharp points and splinters, he grinned from ear to ear when he saw drops of blood around where Nagato held it, including blood dripping from her hand.

"Something tells me I'm going to have a blast here in the infamous SOS Brigade," Michael laughed as he walked over to sit down on one of the chairs. Ms Asahina quickly came to my side to assist me. Nagato turned to me and just stood there looking at me. While I coughed a few more times and rubbed my throat I saw the blood tripping from her hand.

"Your... hand Naga...," I coughed some more trying to talk. I'm the one that was almost choked to death and I'm concerned over Nagato's hand.

"I am fine," should have expected her to say that. Ms Asahina tried to help me up to my feet to only sit be back down on a chair.

"Hold on K-Kyon... I'll get you some w-water," She quickly scurried to where she made her coffe and scrambled to look for some water. Surely in that corner of her's she'd have some. Didn't you need water to make her delicious tea in the first place? I looked up to see Nagato still looking at me still.

"I'm fine... Or rather... I'll be fine in a moment," I told her, knowing that she wanted to know of my condition.

"I see," she then said and picked up the wooden stake and walked back over to the table, placing it down upon it. Right next to where part of the table seemed to be broken off. Did she really pull off a piece of the table to make a weapon?

"I'll get that," Michael then said with a grin and the stake quickly moved to connect itself back to the table. In an instant he repaired the table, which terrified me. If this was the real potential of Haruhi's power then I'm glad she doesn't know a thing about it.

"H-here is your water K..K...Kyon," Ms Asahina returned to my side with a glass of water. I nodded her thanks as I took it from her hand. As I was about to drink it however a loud bang made me jump and the water quickly left the cup and splashed on the floor.

"Kyon you idiot! Don't make a mess of my clubroom!" Of course she'd choose now to come back...and now I have no water. What's next? A ridiculous plan?

"I have ourselves a new assignment!" Maybe I should stop thinking as well to stop the jinxing. "We are all going the nearest haunted mansion to look for ghosts!" Haruhi then announced to us all.

"A h...h..h..h.h..h..haunted m..m..mm..m..m..m...mansion?" Ms Asahina was close to tears of freight once more, which was common to all of Haruhi's plans.

"I think that's an excellent idea Ms Suzumiya," Says the constant smiling kiss up. Nagato as usual was silent.

"Ghost huh? Well I know of such a place... but it's said that more than ghost lurk there. But demons too," Michael grinned to Haruhi, who's face light up like a Christmas tree. Great... now there's a chance we'll need an exorcism by the end of it now Haruhi got her mind set on demons too.

"Awesome! This Friday then we will go to this haunted mansion!" Haruhi announced excitedly. I sighed while planting my face into my hand.

"Wow Yuki you're not reading?" Haruhi then asked. I looked over to Haruhi then to Nagato who was still standing where she was, just looking at me. Why was she looking at me? Surely she wasn't that concerned about me. Nagato then looked to Haruhi's confused face for a moment then pattered back to her chair where she opened up her book and started reading.

"...Oookay then, so we'll be needing some ghost hunting tools so we'll need to head to the shops for that. Do you know of any places where we could get some?" Haruhi then said pointing over to Koizumi.

"From the top of my head I don't but I'll be sure to supply us with the latest gear in ghost hunting," she said with his smile. So in other words there's a chance we'd be dressed up as the Ghostbusters...Joy.

"Mikuru! You're not making tea for our newest member! What's wrong with you Mikuru stop lolly gagging and get to work!" Haruhi then commanded, earning a yelp of fright and some frantic tea making. Is it wrong for me to hope that Ms Asahina drugs that tea and poisons him? Of course not! He strangled me without... actually strangling me. I'm sure there's a better way to explain this than using 'the force' as a reference.

The day went on quietly then. Haruhi was on her commander's chair typing away on the computer, Ms Asahina was cleaning the place up, Nagato was reading like she always does, and I was playing Othello with Koizumi, while being watched by...him. Who the hell was this guy anyway. More importantly how does he know everything there is to know about us while keep everything about him classified. This guy appears out of nowhere with godly powers like Haruhi, and seems more in control of them too, then demands to have all of Haruhi's powers too? It doesn't make sense. Because he'll be a true god? I have the feeling that he could make this entire school disappear or make any of us disintegrate at the fling of some wishing so why want Haruhi's power? These thoughts plagued my mind so much that I lost the game to Koizumi.

"Well played Kyon, you put up a good fight," he congratulated me, his smug smile isn't helping my mood at all. A loud bang broke all our train of thoughts as Haruhi slammed her hands onto the desk and stood up as she announced, "I'm going home, you all need to do some research on Ghosts and Demons." And without another word she marched out the club room with her bag over her shoulder.

"She is a very special and beautiful girl indeed," Michael then said with a grin as soon as she left. He then slowly stood up and took a stretch. "Weeeelllll I'm going to hit the hey. Make sure everything is tidy in my spaces when I'm done," then said to Koizumi as he walked to the door. Spaces? Wait... as in closed spaces?

"If you think I'm going to enter your closed spaces to clean up your mess then you are highly mistaken," Koizumi replied looking at him without a smile, rare moments that I've a feeling will be quite frequent when addressing that guy.

"You'll do it either way. Your organizations, squad, whatever you call yourselves will order you to do it. After all, if my spaces are left like that I'll act up, which will act Haruhi up and you'll have more on your plate than before. Have a good night sleep when you guys head home. Koizumi I'd drink lots of coffee." Michael ranted with a smirk as he shut the door leaving the club room. I couldn't hold it in any longer my fist rose into the air and slammed down hard onto the table.

"Bastard!" I cursed through gritted teeth.

"It seems I'll need to make a few calls about the matter to my superiors. I assume we all do," Koizumi said as he stood up. Ms Asahina looked terrified as she slowly nodded.

"Transmitting data of the unforseen appearance of one in the class of Suzymiya," Nagato said as she stared out ahead of her. There had to be something that either of the parties could do with him. But then all that the parties could do with Haruhi at the moment was just observe, which doesn't improve our chances. I just hope we have an ace up our sleeve to handle with power hungry gods.

"I think we should call an end to the club meeting and get to our respective parties and figure out new strategies," Koizumi then said and made his way out of the club room with his phone out. I took my leave myself so that Ms Asahina could have the privacy to change out of her maid outfit. I leant against the wall waiting patiently but willing for her to hurry up because I wanted her to get in contact with her superiors as soon as.

"She's gone," Nagato's voice called out from inside the room. She's gone?

"What?" I replied back.

"She went into the future to talk with her superiors," Well I guess my willing worked. So I then walked back into the room. I was surprised to see Nagato sitting on her chair facing me. Not a book in sight.

"I have received a reply to my earlier transmission regarding the appearance of another in the class of Suzumiya. I wish to have a secondary unit to analyse the new orders for an opinion," She said to me. I shut the door behind me and walked over to the table.

"Okay, go ahead," I responded.

"Transmitted from the Data Integration Thought Entity. Mission Brief. The appearance of a unit class of Suzumiya defies the very low probability. As this unit named 'Pendrike, Michael' is more fluent with his data he is more suitable in aiding Auto-evolution for the race. Mission priority, observe Pendrike, Michael and report back findings. Secondary objectives, observe Suzumiya, Haruhi for any change of data or stability of data," Nagato finished.

"That's it? You're ordered to watch him? You've just been given the same mission but made Haruhi your back up? That's crap! He isn't going to be interested at all in helping you or the Data Integration Thought Entity," I shouted. I couldn't believe it. How could they think that this guy would help them. He made it clear he only wanted Haruhi's power and was definitely not interested in any other life for that matter. Why would it matter if it was alien.

"I see," Nagato replied. There was silence in the room between us, yet it was horrible. I never thought that at this moment silence was just as bad as nails on a chalk board. Yeah, even I don't know how it's possible.

"Your stress levels have increased substantially," Nagato broke the silence. Gee you think?!

"Of course I am I'm furious that your superiors don't want to do anything to get rid of this guy!" I shouted again and slumped down on a chair.

"Furious. That is a form of the emotion 'anger' with higher stress levels than normally associated with the term 'Anger'?" Nagato then asked me. I looked over to her stoic look but could tell by her eyes she genuinely had no idea of the meaning. Well I did say I'd help her learn emotions.

"Well anger and furious is... oh how do I explain this... erm," I had to think for a moment to explain in a way that doesn't have me saying the word anger or other words she wouldn't understand. You try it, It's hard. But Nagato waited patiently for me so in time I think I found an explanation.

"Well... before I explain anger I'll explain happiness first. So being happy is... when... all your feelings or data inside you are completely stable, even more stable than possible. You feel... uplifting and...good. Ah how did you feel when you were playing on the computer?" I then asked. I knew for a fact that she was so enjoying playing that game. Nagato tilted her head down slightly as she seemed to ponder on the question.

"There was background noise that tried to hack through protocols, but it was different than the background noise of before. It felt as you said... 'uplifting' but I did not trust the foreign data and denied it further access," Nagato explained.

"See that is the emotion happiness. You enjoyed playing it. Lett the emotion in would make you feel nice and good. You may even smile," I said to her. I really missed that smile too. It was one of the high factors wanting me to stay in the other world. It's so selfish of me to pick this world over Nagato's world then wish for Nagato to act more like the Nagato in her world. I shouldn't think about that, Nagato ask me to help her understand emotions so that's what I'm going to do.

"What is the relevance of 'Happiness' to 'Anger'?" Nagato looked back to me.

"Because Anger is the complete opposite. When something happens or someone does something you don't like or just thinking of someone you don't like causes a feeling inside you to just flip out, shout at the top of your voice or punch something or someone. If their not around you think about punching them. My blood boils every time I think of that British asshole," I explained, getting worked up even more talking about him.

"I see," She looked down slightly as if in thought about something again. Then all of a sudden she said, "I am 98.9993784251% confident that I have encountered the foreign data you speak of." So you've experienced anger? When? You always look so calm Nagato. I don't think I know anyone that can be that calm when as angry as I am.

"When?" I had to ask and I wish I didn't.

"15,503 times, in the mornings when I discover that I am to repeat the summer loop," Guilt builds up inside of me. All because I didn't do my homework Haruhi looped our summer for 595 years, and Nagato had to remember every single second of it.

"Right... of course you'd feel that...I know I deserve all of the anger for keeping that loop and having me take over fifteen thousand times to figure it out... I am so sorry Nagato,,, I really really am and if you want to let out your anger on me then do so. I do deserve it," I said looking down. It was how I felt. She had good reason to hate me, apart from Haruhi I was the one responsible for it all. I shut my eyes to prepare myself for anything.

"This background noise of errors only appear when I review memory data of Haruhi Suzymiya. Never of you," Nagato then answered. I opened my eyes again to find Nagato was now standing in front of me. It seemed for a moment that all sound left the room as we both just looked at each other. I stared into her golden brown eyes and read her like a book. She was concerned and worried about me, but I'm sure I didn't deserve any of it. I then quickly looked down to her hand.

"Your hand," I said as I quickly took it in mine. Her palm had no signs of being cut or splintered or any form of scarring at all. Her white smooth soft hand was for a lack of a better word, perfect.

"The repair system corrected the injury and dislodged the foreign matter," Nagato said matter of factly.

"You really did rip a piece of wood from the table to use as a weapon to help me...,"I muttered mainly to myself as I looked back down to her palm.

"I said to you that I won't let anyone harm you, I meant it," Nagato then said, but the way she said it it almost sounded like a whisper. Nagato never changes the volume, tone or pitch of her voice at all. So what was different now? It was then that Nagato did something that I did not see coming at all. The hand I was holding soon rose up and placed itself against my cheek. Her hand was cold, but so soft, and felt really nice against my cheek. After a moment that seemed like it lasted for a good few minutes she quickly pulled away.

"Background noise, data errors, initiating stabilizing programs," Nagato stood like a statue. Background noise, meaning her emotions. What was she feeling that made her... No stopping all thoughts right now. Nagato's getting emotional or errors, either way I've got to help her.

"Remember Nagato their emotions and all emotions feel different. Just let them in," I tried to say to her.

"No. Not these. I can't...," Nagato looked down. She looked so helpless! How can I help her?

"Is it Haruhi that's causing it? A memory? I can help you tell me," I pleaded as I grabbed her shoulders.

"The cause is you," Nagato then said. Me? I'm causing these? Why would...

"You need to leave. Your presence is not helping," Nagato suddenly spun me around and shoved me out the door. Despite how she looks small and fragile she is definitely not. Don't forget she took out Asakura and a giant Cricket. I turned around to see the door slam shut.

"Nagato...,"I sigh then decided to head on home. If my presence wasn't helping the matter I would be best to give her space then. Now on my journey home I can now think and try to understand what happened. Nagato placed her hand against my cheek on her own will then suddenly was feeling emotions because of it. Was it embarrassment? Embarrassed that she unconsciously touched my face? Unless it wasn't unconsciously and was intentional. But why? And I was the cause of it? What did I...

Are you really that stupid? Okay then, let's think back. Nagato saves your life and then when you say she looks better without glasses, she stops wearing them. First clue is there. Then she leaves a message on the computer what she personally wants you to return when stuck in that closed space with Haruhi. Clue two. She promised you that she would not let anything happen to you after the Asakura incident, her primary objective is to observe Haruhi and proven many times she takes that order litterally, but she's promised you that she would not let anyone harm you! That's clue three. Now if you look back do you see her talking to anyone else in the brigade as much as she talks to you? Clue four. Then when you fall asleep in the brigade room after lugging that heater from the shop back here you wake up to find two cardigans covering you to give you warmth. One is Haruhi's as she admits it. The other belongs to another girl of the brigade and Ms Asahina wasn't wearing one that day. Clue five. Then when your in that world Nagato made for you she is blushing all the time when around you, invites you to your house, smiles for you, she may as well be screaming to you that she definitely felt more than friendship towards you. Clue six. Yesterday at the Café before you left she lent against you for a hug. When does Nagato want a hug or ask for one? Never, but she wanted one from you. Clue seven. And now she places her hand against your cheek then starts feeling background noise that was brought on by your presence. When have you ever seen someone place their hand against someone else cheek apart from slapping them, and what is it a sign of? Clue eight. Plenty of clues for you. Now working it out!

...oh my god.

She loves me? Nagato the alien loves me? That can't be right! It's just not possible! But the clues add up. Oh my god (not Haruhi) she loves me. How do I deal with that?... Great now I sound like a certain pink haired boy or girl character from a manga. Does that mean I'm going to be driven insane. I feel like I already have with everything that's gone on but that's beside the point. The question is, how do I feel about Nagato. Did I think to myself yesterday that I didn't know myself? This is a lot to take in at the moment I need more time to.

Thud! That was my head hitting the door to my house. I was so deep in thought that I walked into my door. Thankfully my sister opened the door thinking I knocked.

"Kyon? Why did you knock? Did you forget your keys?" I waved her off nicely and went to my room. All of this gave me a headache, Michael, Ghost hunting, Nagato, I needed a break from it all.

RING! RING!

As always, it'll never happen. I answered my ringing phone. "Hello?"

"Hey it's Koizumi. We all need to meet up and talk about you know who," he replied on the phone. I let out a sigh.

"Okay... where are we meeting?" I was surprised that he chose the same place we met when we all found out we were in a time loop at the summer. Dare I say it felt like Deja vu. When I arrived it was night and Koizumi, Ms Asahina and Nagato was standing in the light.

"Ah Kyon, glad you could join us. Nagato had just finished telling us what her superiors said," Koizumi said with his smile. How can he keep a smile like that when we have that Michael guy walking about.

"I know about Nagato's superiors, what of yours?" I asked him.

"We are undecided, many opinions of what should happen are being flung about the organisation. Some say switch from Haruhi to him, some say we remove him from the picture, some say we should observe, many more are said but nothings been decided. Unless a official order comes through I'm on my own," Koizumi explained. "Though I am more troubled with what Mikuru's superiors found out."

"W...Well... I...I won't go into details of our... classified information...but as of the moment Michael arrived... no one has been able to travel back in time before that. Some a...agents are even trapped... unable to travel back," Ms Asahina shook and almost cried.

"Your telling me he's stopped all time travel to any point in the past before he arrived at our school? Why?" I asked, trying to wrap my head around it.

"Isn't it obvious? I don't want any time travellers messing with my past," his voice came from behind me as he walked into the light. "Come on I don't need to wish for knowledge of what you lot are planning it was so obvious that you'd all meet up to discuss me. But what you all should be discussing is how you lot are going to help me get all of Haruhi's powers."

"Why should we?" I spat out through gritted teeth.

"I believe I gave plenty of reasons already. So I could be a true god and because I'd start killing people. It's quite interesting researching about you lot and learning about you lot. I mean this place you lot have met up apparently over 15,000 times," He said with a grin and looked to Nagato who stood there quietly. He then walked over to her.

"Besides you all know this so I won't repeat. Besides you all know this so I... oh look at me, I was about to repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself. Repeat myself..." He kept on repeating and repeating and repeating. I saw in Nagato's eyes everything. For her it was like she was a small fish in a fish tank, with a rotten kick tapping the glass and having that loud echo break into her eardrums. But it wasn't her hearing getting pounded at, it was her sanity. To see him torture Nagato like that I did something on rage and impulse.

"Kyon no!" Koizumi shouted but I didn't listen. I didn't care about anything at that moment. I just wanted him to stop and to be punished for everything he's done, including that torture he was putting Nagato through. I pulled him to face me and sent one of her hardest punches I could towards his face. Michael was knocked off his feet. I felt so proud that I got a rise out of him and that my punch sent him to the floor. He slowly looked up to me with a glare. His eyes were piercing right through me. He slowly stood up.

"...Okay...I can see when I'm not wanted... I'll take my leave here," he said calmly as he rubbed his hand over where I punched him. He began to walk away then stopped at the edge of the light.

"But know that what happens tomorrow... is all on you," And with that parting message he walked into the darkness and disappeared from view. I looked back to Nagato.

"Are you okay?" She nodded to me with her normal stoic look. I then turned to Koizumi and Ms Asahina. On their faces was something that could only be described as fear. Fear of what I done. It was then that is soon dawned to me.

I just angered a very powerful and vengeful god...what is he going to do?

A/N: Do you guys know how hard it is to write Nagato when your not a smart guy that know all the long words?! It's hard for me!

Hope you enjoy what you read, I'm still writing this but I'm also writing my own fiction too so I'm juggling between both. Next one will come.
