One random day in Totsuki; school for future chefs.
Yukihira Aki; 16 year old daughter of Yukihira Soma and Nakiri Erina is found just lazing around in her home mansion's living room, the young teenager is currently in the middle of doing her regular homework with her friends as it's a little group gathering for them.
"Aki, will you get off your lazy butt and continue your homework?" Hayama Kaori spoke out, the girl currently focused on her homework before pausing to look at Aki who is just lazing around. "you'll be scolded by your mother if you don't continue."
"I know, but I keep on wondering…." Aki spoke out as she balanced her pencil on her nose while looking up at the ceiling.
"about what?" Rentarou Aldini asks with a nonchalant voice as he was focused on doing his homework.
"well, my mom told me that Uncle Ryo, Aunt Alice, Aunt Hisako, Aunt Megumi, Uncle Akira, Uncle Takumi, and my dad all faced each other in their generation's Autumn Election, right?" Aki asks and her friends replied with a 'yeah? So?' to her. "and the winners were my dad, Uncle Ryo, and Uncle Akira, right?"
"get to the point, Aki." Kaori spoke out.
"I was wondering what would the result be if they faced each other again, but this time partnered up with one another." Aki said as she had an imagination bubble that had the chibi image of the 92nd generation' Alumnus appearing. "sure Uncle Subaru can't arrive because he's at China and all, but think about how exciting it would be if our parents get to face each other again."
"it would be exciting if it was made possible." Kurokiba Dan said in a bored voice as he had already finished his homework and is just lazing around by reading some cooking magazines. "but it's already a known fact that my mom and dad would be the winners. Their curry dishes were the most perfect curry dishes there is."
"oh please, my father dominated the pre-election in his block with his amazing curry dish." Kaori stated. "even my mother garnered many points from the judges with her own curry too."
"yeah, but nothing compares to them with what my parents made." Rentarou added in while pointing a finger up and smiling a bit smirking in a way. "my dad's special Fettucine curry and my mom's Monk Fish curry, I tasted them and they're the best dishes beyond to what any other had made."
"oh yeah?" Aki spoke out while looking all determined and serious. "my dad's omurice curry is the best because it uses his special Mango chutney and he was the prodigy that became the first seat in his first year too! Sure my mom didn't participate because she was in the Elite Ten, but I can bet my whole month's allowance that if she made a curry dish, it would blow the entire socks off the judges!"
This little group started to bicker with one another as they started to say that their parents' dish would be more stronger and powerful than the other which would lead to their victory.
While this was occurring, Yukihira Soma appears to be eavesdropping by the doorway of the living room as he had listened in on the whole thing.
"who would be the strongest if we got a rematch that is a tag team, huh?" Soma whispers while scratching his chin as he had a mischievous grin appearing on his face. "that sure sounds interesting~."
About a month later, at the Totsuki's auditorium hall. A Shokugeki Match is starting as it is a match up between 8 chefs who have been paired up together.
"now! Let's begin the special Shokugeki Match event as our participants are legendary chefs from the 92nd Diamond Generation~!" the announcer spoke out as the chefs are Soma, Erina, Alice, Ryo, Akira, Hisako, Takumi, and Megumi, each one paired as boy and girl.
"how did this even happen?" Erina asks her husband while her eyebrow was twitching, the headmistress of Totsuki was dragged into this little Shokugeki event that had been made without her knowing. "how did this Shokugeki match even get held up?"
"well,…" Soma spoke out as he started to retell on the bantering chatter that their daughter had with her friends which made him want to host it. "there you go."
"why did I even ask?" Erina facepalmed as she forgot about how her husband is still childish at times.
"come on, Mom~! Dad~!" Aki's voice is heard cheering as Soma and Erina sees her in the crowd and is just cheering with her friends who were doing the same. "please win this match! I still want to keep my allowance money for this month~!"
"don't tell me that she betted with our kids too?" Takumi sweatdropped.
"your kid is a damn bad influence with our kids, Yukihira." Akira said and Soma chuckles awkwardly before yelping in pain when Erina pulls on his ear before nagging him.
"this time, I'm going to clobber you to the ground, Hayama." Ryo growls as he was already in battle mode and glaring at Akira.
"you do know that you never won that many Shokugeki matches against me during our school days, right?" Akira said as he looks down upon Ryo with a smirk. "perhaps this Shokugeki match will end this once and for all."
"if you think you can win, think again!" Takumi exclaimed as he pointed a finger at Hayama. "remember this, Hayama! This time, I shall defeat you and end your reign as the previous 2nd seat! And then Kurokiba with Yukihira are next!"
"and here I thought Kurokiba is the one who does all the barking." Akira said and this got Ryo and Takumi to growl angrily at him.
While the three were bantering against one another. Megumi, Hisako, and Alice were watching from the sidelines.
"do they ever stop being….that?" Hisako asks, forgetting how her husband along with her friends were still rival even their current age.
"w-well…." Megumi awkwardly smiles.
"isn't it fine? It's more lively like this, right?" Alice said all carefree. "it would be rather boring if our dearies were all mature and stoic, right?"
"now that we have our participants, let's have an encounter with our esteemed judges!" the MC announced while swinging a hand towards the judging table as there were a lot of familiar faces.
Nakiri Senzaemon, Nakiri Mana, Nakiri Azami, Nakiri Soe, Nakiri Leonora, Nakiri Asahi, Dojima Gin, Yukihira Joichiro, Daimido Fumio, Isami Aldini, Shiomi Jun, and Shinomiya Kojiro. A lot of familiar faces who are related to the participants of the Shokugeki.
"it's quite the amazing sight, everyone~!" the MC exclaimed. "the former director, alumnus from many generations before and so much more. They are all people of such greatness in the cooking world!" the announcer then went near Isami's judging seat. "Mr. Isami! How do you feel about this Shokugeki match!?"
"um….i might be an Alumnus and all, but comparing myself with these people in judging, I think I might be inexperienced." Isami said with an awkward smile while scratching his right cheek for a moment, but he soon smirks a bit devilishly. "but if it's judging food made by big bro and sister in law, I won't give any leniency~!"
"what a great response!" the MC exclaimed before going to Fumio. "what about you, Daimido-san!? A few of the participants are former members of the Polar Star Dorm, correct?!"
"yeah." Fumio smiles with a nod. "I've tasted many of their dishes before, and I can't wait to see what they got up on their sleeves for this special match."
"I see!" the MC nodded a few times before turning towards Gin and Joichiro. "what about both of you?! Mr Dojima and Mr Yukihira! Do you believe that one pair of the participants can be more victorious than the other!?"
"well, that goes for certainty that their skills have matured to the greatest levels…" Gin spoke out while cupping his chin.
"but skills ain't the only thing that can determine a Shokugeki at all." Joichiro spoke out as he grins a bit while pumping a fist to his chest. "to a chef, it takes skills and the heart to cook with all the passion you got!"
"it appears that all the judges feel the same." The MC said from seeing how the other judges nodded. "very well! Without a further ado!"
Senzaemon rises from his seat and swung out a hand forward.
"let the cooking!" Senzaemon exclaimed as he raises the hand up before slamming it down right upon a big red button that made a loud horn sound rang out. "BEGIN~!"
This instantly got the paired up chefs to go into their serious mode as they got to their stations and readied their utensils and their ingredients. The crowd cheers as loudly as possible as this sound just echoes.
About a few hours later.
"OWWW~!" Aki cries out in pain as Erina is pulling on both of her ears. "I'M SORRY~! I'M SORRY~! I WON'T DO IT AGAIN~! I'M SORRY~!"
"not only betting, but you have the nerve to just bail out on your studies for this event?" Erina spoke out with a very angry look on her face as she keeps on pulling on her daughter's ears even more. "you, Young lady! Are in serious trouble~!"
"I'M SORRY~!" Aki cries out.
"can't we just leave it at that, Erina?" Soma asks his wife as he came and saved his daughter's ears that were nearly ripped off from the constant pulling. "it was a fun event and.."
"YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE HELPING ME NOT HELPING HER~! THIS IS WHY I WANTED YOU TO BE MORE SERIOUS~!" Erina growls angrily as she then started to pull apart Yukihira's right cheek and left ear like they were rubber. "SHE BEGAN TO BET BECAUSE OF YOU NOT TEACHING HER WELL! SHE KEEPS ON BAILING HER STUDIES BECAUSE SHE GOT IT FROM YOU~! OUR HARUKI IS A MODEL STUDENT BECAUSE I TEACH HIM WELL! YOU DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!"
Aki was saved as Erina focuses on punishing Soma. While in the background, Akira and the others watched the scene as they had already punished their kids enough.
"no more betting, alright?" Akira said as he and the other parents look down upon Kaori and the others who were holding their red swollen ears. "if you do more betting, you can be sure that pulling on your ears will be the least of your problems."
"yes…" Kaori and the others replied in unison.
"but don't worry~! For me and Ryo, Danny is okay with doing it~!" Alice said as she went and hugs her son close with a happy smile. "just do it when you're over 21, okay?"
"um, that's still bad, you know?" Takumi noted.
"there's no stopping Alice-san." Megumi sweatdropped.
"forget about it. There's no stopping Alice-sama with any of this." Hisako added in.
"AND YOU JUST WANTED TO DO THIS EVENT BECAUSE OF YOU WANTING TO SETTLE THE SCORES, RIGHT?!" Erina's voice is heard just screaming out her nagging as Soma looks like he was going to die from all the nagging. "BECAUSE OF YOU! I HAD TO CANCEL AN IMPORTANT MEETING WITH A CLIENT WHO WAS GOING TO BE A MAJOR INVESTOR TO OUR ACADEMY!"
"should we..?" Akira asks and the others just shakes their heads in response. "thought so."
Everyone just watched Erina nag Soma to death, not even caring for the fact that the Shokugeki match ended in a draw between all four.
That's a wrap!
Bye bye
