Chapter 4
Mineta paced the hall his curiosity had got the better of him and he wanted or more like needed to know what was on her handkerchief. He had an idea but he wasn't sure and he only knew one person other than Tsuyu who could tell him exactly what was on the cloth. He approached the door to the department of support and knocked. He then heard an explosion before the door opened and Mei Hastume walked out coughing as black smoke poured out of the room.
"Wow that had more power than expected." She said almost sounding impressed.
"Um…excuse me." Mineta said.
"Huh…oh it's the pervert from the hero course what are you doing here?"
Mineta flinched it had been a while since anyone called him a pervert.
"I was wondering if you could help me out? I have something… I need identified on this cloth it …is a homework project… um yeah and I tried everything I could think of and no luck… so will you help?"
She raised an eyebrow "What's in it for me if I help you?"
"Well, what do you want?" Mineta asked cautiously.
"You have to be my genie pig. I have a new baby for Deku but I need to try it out on someone …I mean I need someone to try it out first." She smiled mischievously.
Mineta swallowed nervously he didn't like where this was going.
"Ok stand right there and don't move." Mei pointed to where Mineta was supposed to stand.
He closed his eyes tight waiting for something to happen but nothing did. He opened one eye to take a peek and she had her back turned to him. He opened both his eyes not sure what was going on.
"When are you going to start the experiment?"
"Hum oh I already did."
"WHAT?"
"Yup I sprayed you with this" she held up a bottle with some pink substance in it. "Let me know how you feel after 15 minutes."
What was going to happen to him; was he going to mutate into some strange creature or sprout wings or something weird like that. The minutes seemed like hours, every tick got louder and louder, he got more nervous as hands moved around the clock, the pounding of his heart matched every tick he started to sweat and then suddenly the 15 minutes where up.
"So how do you feel?" she looked at him expectingly
"Um…fine."
"Really? No changes at all? Guess I have to up the dose."
"Do you mind if I ask what you sprayed me with?"
"I call it the spirit of spring."
"Ok and …"
"Anyway, here is the cloth back and the answer to what is on it." She handed him a piece of paper. "Just wait until you are back in your dorm to read it Mr Pervert, don't think I haven't found out by now it is not for some project." She said with a wink.
Mineta left confused as Mei was being very vague about everything. He was about halfway down the hallway when he started to feel weird, what was this sensation he looked down wait what why was he hard?
Mei turns back to her work mumbling to herself "I guess the aphrodisiac needs to be stronger".
