Toilets, Elevators and Innuendos

Truth? No . . . It's all Dares! (Day 1)

Lumina x Kota x Kanon

Part 1

Kota had been staring intently on his 'dare' for a good ten minutes. In fact, he was so focused; he never once blinked the entire time.

Kanon approached him with a question in mind and asked. "What did you get?"

"Well . . ." Kota tried to respond, but ended up sighing instead. He handed the small piece of paper to Kanon and let her read the message in it.

Draw a large eye in your hand. Find an occupied toilet cubicle and slide your hand under the door or partition. Shout 'Hail to the Dark Lord!' 5 points

Kanon fell silent before bursting into laughter, pointing at the sulking Kota.

Kota pouted his mouth at the pink-haired girl and retorted. "Yeah, yeah, laugh all you want!"—snatching the piece of paper from Kanon—"by the way, what kind of dare did you get?"

Almost out of breath and teary-eyed, Kanon unrolled her piece of paper and gave it to Kota.

Go to the elevator and ask the person who will enter which floor they are going. Regardless of their response, say "So close! Try again!" and press a different floor level. 3 points.

Kota turned to the quiet girl and asked her the same. "Lumina, how about you? What is your dare?"

Upon Kota's question, Lumina looked at him and tossed a paper. "Catch"

Start or end a conversation with sexual innuendo (must be with an opposite sex). 3 points

Kanon and Kota turned their eyes on each other before staring at the emerald-eyed girl sitting on the couch. They both knew that Lumina conversed in as minimal words as possible. Not to mention that she was never heard cracking a joke, let alone a sexual innuendo. She's just too serious when it comes to conversations. Very. Serious.

"Something wrong?" Lumina asked, noticing them staring at her.

Kota took the liberty of answering her question and sat beside her. "Ummm, can you . . . pull off a sexual innuendo?" he asked, almost innocently.

Lumina fixed him an empty stare before reaching over his ear and she whispered. "Don't tempt me Kota Fujiki. I've got more fire than In-your-END-o can handle."

Kota jerked backwards, obviously unprepared on the girl's surprising comeback. "Er, w-who's gonna be your target?" he spluttered anxiously, sliding further away from her.

Lumina released Kota from her vacant stare and she sighed, almost disappointingly. "I haven't thought about it."—she took a deep breath before standing up—"Let us go."

"Oh! I forgot to tell you that you can't target a fellow player," Kota reminded as they made their way outside his room. "and make sure that another player oversees your dare or your point wouldn't count!""

Part 2

An hour later, the trio were already in front of the male restroom. Apparently, Kota dragged the two females (despite their downright refusal) to come with him and witness his dare.

"Just stay outside. Okay?" Kota said whilst entering the restroom. He picked a random toilet cubicle, went inside and waited patiently for an unsuspecting victim.

Inside the cubicle, Kota pulled out a marker and drew an eye on his palm. He made the iris of the eye excessively huge and even bothered himself with adding some eyelashes. "Perfect! Now all I have to do is—?"

Kota paused after hearing footsteps outside. He crossed his fingers, hoping that the person will enter the cubicle next to him.

Next to me! Next to me! PICK THE CUBICLE NEXT TO ME!

As if Lady Luck heard his silent capricious demand, the person entered the cubicle beside him and he could clearly hear the sound of its door being closed.

Kota took a deep breath, er, maybe not too deep before he silently slapped his cheek, bracing himself for what he was about to do.

HERE GOES NOTHING!

Kota slipped his hand under the occupied cubicle beside him; palm faced up, and shouted as loud as he can.

"HAIL TO THE DARK LOOOORRRD!" *Insert Kota's evil chuckle of malicious glee.

His voice echoed in the entire restroom and everything went silent. The moment that Kota took a sigh of relief, he heard a familiar voice. One that ringed 'doom' in his distorted little brain.

"You. . . JERK!"

It was Soma.

Kota's blood froze; his survival instinct went on red alert and it seemed as if the universe itself screamed 'RUN, YOU FOOL!' over and over.

Hearing a sudden crash beside him, Kota bolted outside the restroom, not even bothering to look at the two girls who was waiting for him at the corridor. He frantically bashed the button of the elevator whilst forcing it open with his bare hands. The moment that he took a glance behind him, Soma was already on his tail, pissed-off and out-for-blood.

Well, out for Kota's blood to be precise.

The elevator finally opened and Kota went inside in a blink of an eye.

"CLOSE NOW! CLOSE NOW!" He pleaded to the doors like a madman as if the inanimate object could hear him.

The elevator closed and a loud bang was heard on the other side.

"I need to hide. Damn! Why does it have to be Soma?! That man couldn't handle a joke!"

Kota pressed the Veteran's Section button whilst impatiently walking in circles.

Part 3

Miserably failing to catch Kota in time, Soma clicked his tongue and kicked the bench beside the elevator.

"Damn you Kota!"

He was waiting for the elevator to open again when someone tapped his shoulder from behind.

"U-uh hi Soma!"

It was good ol' Kanon, with Lumina, standing behind her.

The elevator opened but there was no Kota in sight. Soma grudgingly entered the elevator, followed by Kanon and the closed-mouthed Lumina. The pink-haired girl intentionally blocked the elevator buttons in a display of complete delusional ownership.

"Which floor are you going Soma?" Kanon asked whilst smiling at him.

The young man raised a brow at her and stared. He could tell that she's planning something, but he didn't know what.

". . .Veteran's Section."

Kanon's smile changed to a sly grin before facing the elevator buttons. "So close! Try again!" She hummed in victorious glee whilst pressing a different button.

Soma's eyes grew wide, before shifting into an acid glare. He cursed under his breath, crossing his arms around his chest. "You little. . ."

Ignoring the buster-blader's silent fit of annoyance, Kanon continued humming to her heart's content.

The elevator opened at the Den's Lobby and the two girls (Lumina and Kanon) stepped outside, leaving Soma behind.

Part 4

While having a carefree time, lounging at the lower lobby, Tatsumi called Lumina and asked her to go a mission with Kanon, Annette and him.

When the team arrived at their destination, Tatsumi briefed the team and gave them orders.

" Lumina, you're coming with me."

"It'll be your pleasure. . ." Lumina answered with a straight face, but her words didn't come out right.

"Excuse me?" Tatsumi asked, confused at the girl's reply.

Earning a silent response from Lumina, Tatsumi continued to give orders and began their mission.

"You all know the routine right? Let's head out!"

Lumina nodded her head in agreement. "Yes, the routine. Annette and I are going to hammer the Sariel first, and then Tatsumi will screw it."

"Uhh. . .Lumina?"

The team found the Sariel and engaged it; successfully destroying its legs and enraging it.

The Sariel shrieked from the attack and released a poison fume at them.

"Oh shit, it erupted prematurely . . . the second coming is immine—."

"—quiet Lumina!"

Tatsumi, who was getting disturbed at Lumina's colorful choice of words, yelled at her and turned to Kanon.

"Kanon! Shoot it now!"

Lumina linked burst Kanon with one of her Aragami bullet before clarifying their leader's orders. "You heard him. Unload everything you got."

"Lumina! Shut up or else—"

"—what?" the girl sharply deadpanned.

Tatsumi smacked his face with his palm and dragged it, almost painfully. "Nevermind . . ."—he turned his eyes to the heavens out of embarrassment and fear.

After defeating the Sariel, the group returned to the den where Annette and Kanon, on verge of tears trying to contain their laughter, Lumina in her usual unconcerned bearing, and Tatsumi—who looked completely worn out and was having a severe mental breakdown, courtesy of you-know-who.

The group went to the counter, where they were greeted by Hibari. "Oh Tatsumi, are you here for your unit's mission report?" she asked.

To Tatsumi's horror, Lumina answered Hibari's question before he could even open his mouth.

"Yes, Tatsumi's gonna fill you in, baby. Every-last-bit-of-you."

"LUMINA! I SAID SHUT UP!"

Tatsumi embraced the void from within and entered the state of Nirvana.

Kota – 5 points

Lumina – 3 points

Kanon – 3 points

Author's Note:

What in the world did I just wrote? Baaahh. . . who cares.

Hey you! Yeah you! You sneaky lurking readers. . . Watch out for those deadly grammars that I've left behind. They might poke and poke and poke some more in your eyes! :P (Wait. . . I should've warned you sooner. Should I?) *smirk

Anyway, Day 1 ends so to conclude this chapter, Soma got punked—twice. Kota was hiding on the ceiling. Soma's on a hunt. Kanon enjoyed the mission. Lumina still doesn't care—but damn! She can definitely talk! Kanon plans to ride the elevator again and Tatsumi needed some emotional therapy. OH NOES! TATSUMIII!

Oh yeah, did I spelled Annette's name correctly?
