January 2

Time: 6:45 p.m.

I felt rather uncomfortable upon Nagato's gaze. Her blank eyes stared mercilessly at me, as if they would shoot laser beams from themselves anytime soon. Not that she has any reason to. I hope.

Breaking the awkward silence, I spoke.

"So not even you knew this would happen until it did?" Nagato's eyes did not move.

She stated simply, "No."

"Then do you know anything now?" For a brief moment, I somehow regretted asking that. I realized that I did not want anything more to do with this issue. My entire holiday was ruined because of it. I didn't want Nagato, Asahina, and even worse, Koizumi delving into the tension between Haruhi and I anymore than they should. All I wanted was to be left alone with this issue for now. But somehow…

Haruhi could be the one under the most stress right now. After all, she doesn't have anyone to turn to about this as of now. And she certainly doesn't know anything about Nagato, Asahina, and Koizumi's positions on this. In other words, she's probably just as confused as I am.

That is, until now.

"Yes."

Nagato slightly turned her head away. I looked at her expectantly.

"Creation of a humanoid interface has been detected to be the cause of massive fluctuations of data." Nagato droned monotonously.

Again with the long terms that only a precocious child would know; fortunately, I've known Nagato long enough to know they mean.

"What does that mean?" Okay, I understood the words themselves but not what they meant.

"The dissentient component of the Integrated Data Entity has proceeded in provoking Haruhi to greater lengths in order to obtain larger transmissions of data. It is necessary for them to use the key to her potential in order to do this." Nagato explained in her tiny voice.

At that, I was reminded of the time when a certain blue-haired beauty had attacked me in the classroom. So another one of those evil humanoids are out to get me? Well, more like use me just so Haruhi can pretty much spoon-feed them more of the data crap. But how the hell did they manage to get Haruhi and I to sleep together?! Not only does it not make any sense but its also disgusting!

"I still don't understand where this is going." Honestly, what were they thinking when they decided to pull this sick trick? I'm sure it was meant to piss Haruhi off but couldn't they have come up with something less original?

Nagato continued to mindlessly stare at me like a ticking time bomb. Her small lips began to move again as my knees were somehow beginning to grow weaker.

"It is likely that as the key to Haruhi's full potential…" Nagato's head tilted a bit as she ceaselessly continued to stare blankly at me. Her eyes blinked a few times as she did so.

Dammit! Don't toy around with the aspect of suspense at a time like this!

"…You are capable of triggering another being that has the possibility of possessing the equivalence to that of Haruhi Suzumiya's powers." Nagato's tone had immediately gone serious.

"The minority of the Integrated Data Entity has determined that the existence of another being equal to Haruhi Suzumiya is liable to generate and collect information as much as when Haruhi Suzumiya is provoked."

I couldn't say anything. I didn't understand what Nagato was trying to say to me. It was as if my mind was more focused on what was being said rather than what was being explained. Just how do Haruhi and I sleeping together trigger anything?

Unless…

"Wait, are you telling me...?" I lost my grasp of words when I saw Nagato's empty eyes gawk at me like the answer was so obvious.

"..."

Oh. Hell. No.

January 3

"A temporary change in perception of each other."

Since last night, my cloud of misery has done nothing but increase in size and weight. I should have known something like that would have been the explanation; after all, what else could've I expected since there were no spiked drinks at the party? Yeah! What other better reason would there be if it weren't a psychologically disturbed humanoid pervert that wasn't behind all this? Closing my eyes, I sighed.

I am screwed in more ways than one.

My mind kept wandering back to Asahina, Nagato and Koizumi. All their organizations must be fretting over this. After all, if those bastard interfaces' theory was correct; what's going to happen? At that thought, I remembered the time when Haruhi and I were trapped in that closed space; Koizumi had made that repulsive comment before disappearing away into the night.

"Adam and Eve. If you reproduce enough it'll work out?"

Honestly, the idea of making little Haruhis is another way to bring in Armageddon.

I snapped away from my thoughts when my sister barged into my room without knocking again. She was carrying a piece of paper in her hands and scampered over to me. Holding the piece of paper towards my face, I realized that it was one of those 'get-well' cards.

I took the pink material away from her hands. "It's a bit late now, don't you think?"

"Nope!" My sister beamed at me before skipping out of the room.

...Okay then. It was little moments that that make me wonder how I can possibly share the same genes as she. Perhaps I'm adopted?

I sat up from my bed to ease my aching muscles. The calendar in front of me reminded that the hell of hell would begin as of tomorrow. The thought of seeing Haruhi hurt my head. What would I do? Should I act casually? Should I start making funeral arrangements? But most of all...

How would I explain?

Author's Notes:

Sorry if this chapter was confusing...writing Nagato's dialogue has proven rather difficult for me. Anyways, just incase it was confusing, an evil humanoid interface was the cause of why Haruhi and Kyon ended up sleeping together. Kyon was merely used as a breeding instrument just so the possibility of another 'God' can be born. In other words, getting Haruhi pregnant. According to Yuki, the alien interface had altered Haruhi and Kyon's perception of each other so it be possible. However, it isn't known if Haruhi's powers are genetic...that's why everyone is getting so worked up over this.

...Hopefully that helped. This was the only idea I had since the drinks at the Christmas party weren't spiked. Lol.

Thanks for all reviews!! And again, I apologize if this chapter was confusing...

Thanks for reading!
