Chapter 52 - Extra chapter: Chocolate box of Story snippets I

PS: This so-called extra chapter consists of concept notes for episodes, and events that did not make it into the main plot, due to various reasons such as a change of direction and the like. In fact, much did not make it because I intended the story to be from Mikoto's point of view, which does not have a global scope and so he can't see much. But there were fragments where this was not observed. I broke that rule once. Then I walk around that rule by the duo of talkative lads.

On this episode we have a whole bunch of snippets of short stories, that were sitting on Notes awaiting they time, to enter the main show. But, at last they getting they own off-spin colab. There is no connection between those parts as they are actually a fan-fiction on they own. As a collection they are mostly about Shirai Kuroko, doing stuff off screen of the main story line of Electric Princess. But once again, those ideas don't get into the main story.

[How many of a Misaka, you see on this picture?]

A local Judgment 177 Branch Office, is an operational base for Kuroko Shirai and Kazari Uiharu. They had a quest there; Ruiko Saten who used that place as gathering point for they team. But mostly just hang around. At one moment this long black-haired girl teased the pig-tailed red-head, for her obsession with her roommate the famous Number-three Misaka Mikoto. But that Teleporter only proudly rise her chest, blabbing something about (Its only a right, correct and justifiable, that its exactly her and nobody else), who standing on side of her Idol. So even flower head band Uiharu joins the intervention, trying to persuasion her working partner from Judgment.

Whoever it dint go well, so the duo of black-haired girls try to do some little test. So, the local Hacker Ace working on her desk/station put on monitor screen a life feed from multiple security camera recording a certain plaza/square and its surrounding where certain festival going. Prankster immediately caught on what her nerdy classmate aiming to do, and quickly turn to face Red-haired, persuade her to do a little test: "So, Shirai san, how many Misaka sans, you seen on screen?"

It was meant as intervention, but just from one glance on the monitor, Tokiwadai girl put on her face an insulted expression as if they pulling on her a (You are crazy!) prank. She sighed, as she delivered her sharp eyed detective observation, while glaring at that monitor. "This is Ridiculous! So lets get over with this! There is Sissy, on the souvenir trinket shop stand. There is Sissy, at the creep [fancy pancakes] shop stand. There is Sissy, at front of some street performance game. There is Sissy, in front of balloon animals artist. There is Sissy, at elevated observation deck. And of course my Sissy, is having an argue in front of shop with suspicious food ingredients."

Both black-haired girls, pull out they eyes at sassy girl, as they don't expected such a complex answer at all. But the red-head, was failing to radiate a proper lady aura as she act sassy by the way how she use her hand to play and toss with one of her pigtails. "That's enough, for your trickery play, I going to patrol! Later!" With that, she made a few step toward the window, then directly teleported herself behind it, onto the street.

While taller girl was confused, or rather exposed for how her attempts backfired, it was the shorter one who intensively run her fingers across the keyboard of her laptop, she called out for her classmate. "Saten san, look!" As the other one lean above her shoulder, this hacker showed a series of zoomed up camera feed on a place that Shirai mentioned where Misaka is.

.

And indeed In front of souvenir stand shop, there was a trio of girls, from which one look like a gorgeous honey-blonde Tokiwadai lady. The second looked like a black-haired version of Shirai who is heavy on causal wear cosplay. Third one with a beret on her head, strongly resemble Misaka in her face. She had a big smile on her face, showing to the other two some trinket or souvenir and laughing. But the duo had an expression as if they don't understand what is so funny about it.

Uiharu switched the camera and on second place, where a crepe fast food truck was stationed. There was a foursome of Tokiwadai girls with same face, motionless standing in front of the counter window. That scene give out a vibe, that the girls and the clerk having a deep philosophical debate.

Hacker switched on another camera feed to third place, displaying some street performers entertaining a quite large audience. It was some kind of game where people from audience can join and test they luck and wits. There was certain group of middle-low school girls in same uniforms, that got interested in trying it. They were a group that attract attention by default, but one of the girls clearly resembled Misaka.

Switch on fourth place shows a Mini Misaka making a joy dance with a balloon animal, in front of a bench where a white haired lad was siting. She was showing it into his face, but like a big bro he was not a big fan of the balloons. Next to it was a girl in Adonai dress, who kinda give out a vibe that she can be an evil older sister of the Railgun, that family dint talking about. She had probably lots of stingy comments, as if she hang around just to throwing a wrench to their causal date. Plus near, on different fast food stand… no it was drink stand, there was a pair of woman, who observed that interaction with a cups in they hands. One was nonathletic in a science lab coat. The other was in green tracksuit and with large horse tail.

Fifth place, high on some skyscraper building terrace, was a tricky one, because it was some kind of a party for invited only, and the target girl had long hairs of different color. She also wears something more appropriate for a party and not a school uniform. At last she was preoccupied by talking to others, so her face was on camera.

And final six place mentioned by Shirai, was in front of suspicious common stuff/commodity shop, on which certain proud Judgment member, will not hesitate twice, to straight forward call an Anti-Skill to clear that place. There was this Misaka who obviously give out a big sister vibe and an adult version of Misaka, (especially in chest area). It was safe to assume, that this was indeed, their Misaka know as Onee-sama [Sissy], who was scolding her grinning mom, for trying to enter a weird-vibe place, for questionable reason.

.

Saten had a dewy face, loudly gulping on empty. "What we do now?"

In contrast Uiharu had already her phone between her ear and shoulder, while her fingers dancing on keyboard. "Shirai san? Where you are right now? ...…" Her voice become strict, demanding from her colleague cooperation. "Exactly, (What?), direction, you facing;? Right now! ….. Stop making excuses! … Aha… ... Okay…. So you don't even realize?; that you already walking toward that festival? Because, that's where Misaka san is? … Wait for us, dummy! If we arrive together there, you will have a perfect excuse, for showing up! Us! ... Just do as I said! Stay still!; we go on that festival as well. So don't you dare to solo this! You will only cause a trouble for Misaka! …" Hacker got angry, and rise her voice. "I am you partner! So you have an obligation, to drag me around!" And she just cut that talk, not waiting for reply.

The taller girl watched the short one with a worry how effective was in finishing her work, and packing up her stuff, so they can get out as soon as possible.

And in a moment they both left, leaving Judgment 177 Branch Office, once again, for now, empty.

.

[Moon fox and Kuroko]

The school hours and the current class, at Tokiwadai was barely over, when at the first ring-tone of a school bell, the sliding doors to Kuroko's classroom burst open, getting attention of every student inside. In the door stood the black-haired, cold heart, vice president of the student council Asanuma Reiko, without hesitation she used the megaphone she had brought with her, to broadcast not just to entire class: "I have a task for you, Shirai!"

Although the device was set to the lowest power, it was still too much for certain someone to make an excuse: that she dint hear it by a chance.

However, the redhead herself was not thrilled at all with this snake move on her. It had such a finesse that she was too slow, to use her Teleport ability to flinch out from the room. Especially she know, that the moon fox vixen had a some annoying task on mind. So Shirai respond with a sour expression and sassy tongue. "You won't let me rest, will you? How many times, do I have to tell you?; that as a member of Judgment, I'm too busy to spend my precious time for student council commissions. In contrast, I am pretty sure, that you will find a quiet a number of fellow student, who will jump for the opportunity to work alongside you, senpai. Or are you somehow trying to keep me from my one and only true love?" She ignored that the last part of her statement created a strong negative response on some of her classmates, but she dint cared as she became serious: "Or is this some kind of plan?; to get me involved in the student council affairs? I refuse!"

.

But president had enough experience to dealing with excuses, (Why someone shouldn't do the task, they asking for.) First yearstudent was ready to lash out, when the third grader stepped in front of the first grader with her hands on her hips. "First of all, I know more about your schedule, than any stalker could wish for."

That one line froze the Judgment officer as she make confused (He?) [What?]

.

But that fox dint care. "Second: Do you seriously think?; that if it weren't for Judgment, you wouldn't be tied to the council anymore? I even directly asked Judgment HQ to release your police from duty and from public services; for the whole purpose to be fully available, exclusive for Tokiwadai tasks. But all I got from them was a stern: (No!)"

Red haired open her eyes wide at the sheer audacity of this person, for just like that, trying to kick her out of Judgment.

.

Still, black-haired radiated a strong self-confidence. "And thirdly: It is already generally clear, that when something is solved by Level-5, there is a very high chance that the solution will be something at Level-5. We, in student council, like to follow a personal rule, to not ask Level-5's for assistance. Because the number of our female students who can keep up with them is relatively low."

Hearing that, Shirai's classmates who were delaying they departure, by listening to the president, stop slacking and start leaving the class. But still several of them give they classmate a jealous glare, for not value the attention the president giving her. For many was clear, that this task has been decided for that teleporting annoyance, from beginning. (Especially one particular student though that.)

.

Asanuma don't paid them any attention. "And fourthly, it is clear to us, that you had in mind specific; naughtiness. In that direction, a services; in which you cannot cheat through your police work achievements, are essential to your academic development as a model lady. And that's part of the curriculum you're falling behind in."

At this point Shirai was annoyed to even bothering to asking herself a question about; how much preparation?; this person has made. Or if there is this big file case/folder with her name, sitting on president desk, containing a hefty number of files, notes, reports, and observations.

.

In contrast Reiko crossed her hand under her chest. "Fifth: I did cowardly run away from the responsibility of being a senpai for Misaka san, but if I run away from the responsibility of being a senpai for you, it would be like I betrayed Misaka one more time."

Except Kuroko had a dry comment. "I don't remember ever asking for something like this."

.

President dint intend to let this slippery/fickle fish to get away, so she put her foot down and play dirty. "That's enough! The rules apply to everyone and to you doubly! Cut of your excuses, you're only delaying both of us. As someone who is visible, and in fact, another public face of Tokiwadai, you need to have a lot more positives mark, than negatives. Don't you get it? You are in red numbers! Otherwise, it could happen, that the efforts for a better prestige of this school, will start gnawing away at the idea, to do the rooms redistributing once again. Especially the number 208."

This was direct assault on roommate status between Teleporter and Railgun, and proud Herald of Misaka Mikoto, (self-proclaimed), will not tolerate such insolence. But Asanuma, outpaced Shirai by urging that red-haired to pack up and she directly started pulling her out of the class.

First year tried to pull out her last card that Misaka waiting for her, but third year cut that off by stating; it was already covered. She refereed to her partner, roommate and other President of Tokiwadai's student council. Those two then on spot began they commission.

.

[Tokiwadai Amenities]

Scene is a some street somewhere in Academy City. A group of trouble makers guys/boys/lads approach the lonesome Shokuhou and Shirai, with clear intentions of hitting on the two girls. (flirting and picking up on date and more)

Kuroko, give them a bored look, at first. Then she move into a formal tone, almost like a servant or herald, and directly addressed the older lady. Of course the sassy tone in her voice was obvious, as she risen her hand toward the guys in introduction gesture, because she dint liked how this Level-five, had too much fun of teasing her. "Honored Queen, this plebeian, deigns to vie for your lovely hand."

The guys had an inappropriate commentary on that fancy speak.

But over-competitive Shokuhou keep a stony smile like a true lady who is above the matter, not willing to fall to foul play. "Hmmm. Great! Let's throw them in the dungeon!"

Kuroko immediately dropped her pretense and turned to Misaki urgently with wide eyes. "Is that thing really real?!!"

Except the honey-haired girl winked coquettishly at the freshman. "Did you though?, that the fabulous hunts at the fox-boy, that manages to slip into the forbidden garden of flowers; is just thematic aerobics in the alleys without any ulterior motive? Most of them will end up as a sample for the exceptional evening class, behind closed doors and drawn down curtains, that is all about study of a body biology. Its an extra lessons, not covered in curriculum, which enjoy high popularity among girls. Paradoxically, offenders get that attention of girls they wanted, even if they are tied up onto something. It is remarkable what they are able to undergo for excessive attention from girls."

The guys exchanged reserved, worry glances.

Shirai was confused. "Why I am so hesitant to deny that claim? And why I have a feeling, that you may not be trolling without saying a drop of truth in that statement, my queen?"

But Mental-out made a tricky fox expression, as she conspirator glance at her current companion with one eye, and smile wickedly. "You already experienced more that one brawl, to know that Tokiwadai is a very competitive school. Everybody hiding a claws under that feminine appearance. So its common for locked up girls inside the garden, to get hungry for certain type of knowledge and experience. Speaking of which…" She reach for her fashion bag/purse to pull out her TV remote. "Seeing that you dint want to arrest them for a change, because the boys hesitate to cross the line into the personal space of beast; a suggest a compromise. If a memories for a date with a lady, is all what those boys wants from us, then I feeling generous at this moment."

Those guys got nervous as she point at them that remote, and made a sweet warm smile. "One fake memories of a perfect date, with your ideal girl type, a sweet dream, at your service." As she pressed down the button, while she utter in half voice a computer like command.

Shirai watched with a sour expression, as the group of guys, froze for few seconds. Then those lads start to proudly rising they chest, making smirks and giggle like noises of someone (Who knew!). So they quickly lost interest in the duo of girls, as they walk away, heading somewhere to celebrate.

Shokuhou noticed that (I judging you!) expression on the girl next to her and smiled toward her. "Oh common, I dint hurt them, or do anything sinister. If anything else, I just practice my psychiatrist ability, to show case how one simple good memory, can alternate a conflict outcome. You too, shall put onto your (To Do Study List), how yours abilities can support you in economical way." Suddenly she become a tricky, teasing the short girl. "Or… You hart want to know?… If… at last one of them… his ideal girl… resembled you?"

What ever it was true or not, it was a heavy hit to Shirai psyche. That girl bend as if she received an actual punch. Then restoring her posture she accept her defeat, knowing that this fox will have a lot of fun on her account, so she averted her face stating a question. "Can we move already?" And they move on.

.

.

[Break and Entry lesson 101]

Mikoto, Inoue and Kuroko, stand in front of the door to dormitory room 208. Mikoto showing her sister a code for the room, but instead of saying it aloud, using key card or pressing buttons, she just hack the device directly. Then she turn toward her clone. "Do you get it?"

Mikoto and Inoue swap places and now is the little sister who hack the device. "Yes, I get the code."

But Kuroko observed them with a triangle shaped mouth. "Is electronic securing a joke to you two?" That innocent (I don't get it.) reaction from them, or rather (What are you talking about?) expression on they faces, was a crushing answer for the maiden heart of a Judgment officer.

Railgun dint mentioned, that she heard from Teleporter itself, how this junior police officer opened a door by simply teleporting the lock mechanism out of the equation.

.

.

[Dark side of Shirai]

Misaka, Saten and Uiharu sits on table, (maybe a family restaurant box), when Someone else who are there with them, is trying to intervene, sighed tiredly. Like Ruri senpai, who got into a detective mode, while the Teleporter was conveniently away to do something. "One more time! According to this video record, we saw. Do nobody?; questioned the dark aura around Shirai Kuroko, and her Cthulhu/Kathulu evil-void monster like appearance; during extreme emotional state?"

Actually the trio has been holding back, as if they actually had some question, but pushed them away in (Its Shirai, lets not talk about that!) manner. Flower head band Uiharu, was the first one to spoke. "When you mentioned it. It can be just a side effect of her teleport ability going berserk. Or, she just blasting photons up, creating this illusion of dark powers and uplift breeze. But the red eyes are definitely sings of devil influence." It sounded like she actually dint care, and just accepted her work partner. "But, on other hand; What you know? Maybe she is onto something? Maybe she will eventually develop an invisibility, as an unexpected secondary usage of teleportation."

Mikoto on other hand was on another level. Because she was a Level-Five. "Hmmm, about that... I actually observed a battle between two teleporters. It was filled with sassy comments and battle of wits. More like an argue whose point is more suitable for world that throwing a punches. But when they lost patience, their clash created an actual black hole, that eaten that multi story commerce building from inside out." Suddenly she realized something. "Oh, that was Kuroko's first building." And Level-five smiled softy at the success of her roommate.

Uiharu with thinking expression added a trivia. "Actually, I dint heard about black hole, that's a new one. But I heard how annoyed she was, during filling a report of when she without a permission and outside task time window, demolished a building targeted for demolition, using a glass panels to cut the pillars. She literally throw down a building on a suspect, to win an accuracy argument."

Ruri carefully observed how relaxed expression Railgun had when she heard that. "The way how proud you look at taking down a building, it make me to question, if razing structures is something, like Level-five kinks. I mean, some Level-five abilities just scream for it. But there was a report that one particular, just throw a multi-store building to another one, just to disrupt a beauty sleep of certain VIP. Something about disliking current policy."

Misaka looked at the detective with question in her face. "Do I, look like a vandalism enthusiast? It just happens..." Then it was her who realized something, and she was not two time happy about this slight annoyance. "Wait a second! Could it be? She too have a building kill?... Well her ability is a water molecule manipulation… There was those big ice icicles, piercing it like a needles a paper-carton house… walls, floors... The pavilion has been closed down for general repairs. She had this proud smile, as she was lying on bench, exhausted… She is always so meticulous about careful use of her abilities. But If she lose the collar and go berserk?… so even she can do it?" At this point the brown head was looking into a distance, not actually looking for something specific, but thinking as if she was actually not that special anymore.

Saten Ruiko as Level-zero in this group, had a hard time imagining those Level-fives razing houses in long ago abandoned house area or fully deserted town. Actually it look like they playing a children game with small marbles, or a ball throwing game of petanque.

Tanned girl saw that dewy expression, and grinned while delivering an underground/under-counter not-official intel for the lover of urban legends. "I shall not say this to just anybody, but Tokiwadai in goal to prepare its students as Elites for they future, do not restrict its students from expressing they combat abilities in a conflict solving approach. Plus a monthly brawl is a great way to shape a person characters. Had you ever ask?; why Tokidawai's infirmary is actually a small hospital? We can look like an innocent flowers who need a protection even from a wind. But the truth is, that we are also a tricky foxes, who hiding they claws for a worthy moment." She made that cat paw waving at you gesture. "Plus the unscheduled multi team battle royal got an annual adjective."

Saten was unsure if this Gekota expert, is trolling her or not, but seeing that the other Gekota enthusiast, dint object, she spoke up her question. "So... Are you telling me?; that Shirai san esper ability, is actually a gravity power? That her teleport is actually, an instant warp where she suspending gravity time-space (some scientific mambo jumbo), sending whatever she wants, like an email somewhere, where it unpack? That its not like?; she dematerialize herself on one spot and materialize on another spot, but more as if the space itself bend and she slip through like a cherry nub that got spit out of mouth? But because the sensory cut out, everybody perceive it as if teleport happens?" She look at face of her friends, for second before she ask. "Do she tried to send something through a phone line? Or through the optical cables?"

The older duo, smiled because this girl was getting back onto her track of throwing an urban legends trivia.

Except Ruiko's classmate Uiharu, must correct her friend. "Saten san, calm down! If you referring at concept; that gravity is base for time, and inertia of energy equal to mass; then whats Shirai do, is to expand Einstein formula of relativity, by inserting her own parameters." That complex terminology was to much, for the long-black and she gifted that flower hair-band with sour expression, for being too nerdy.

Mikoto though about it. "Speed and mass, equal energy. Hm… I wonder if every teleporter is a perv like them. I not actually know any other that Kuroko, but it seemed like they dint even bothered to argue against that detail."

The trio of girl make this (Now I understand) (a~ah?) Noise. Then they change a topic.

.

[Note:]

Cthulhu is a fictional cosmic entity created by writer H. P. Lovecraft. The character was introduced in his short story "The Call of Cthulhu",[2] published by the American pulp magazine Weird Tales in 1928. Considered a Great Old One within the pantheon of Lovecraftian cosmic entities, he is depicted as a gigantic entity worshiped by cultists, in the shape of a green octopus, dragon, and a caricature of human form. As the namesake of the Lovecraft-inspired Cthulhu Mythos, Cthulhu has since been featured in numerous pop culture references. [Wiki]

In my notes this snipped was in form of scene screenplay script for actors, for play and start with (Someone: "One more time!…"), so because I read the comment about (more of Ruri) it just snap in like a piece of puzzle. My second person to put in was the high school senpai of Shirai and Uiharu from the 117 branch. But she, with her roentgen sight ability and personality, will not bother to talk about it.

.

.

[Recruitment mastery]

In this snipped, Kuroko explains to Mikoto, how she recruited individual participants to participate in the Saturday event on Tokiwadai external dormitory. She clearly specify that there was a quite few colorful personalities loitering around whiteout purpose. (For this gig, please imagine it, with the help of video clips. Like when the surveyed, scouted participants having a speed up interview in front of camera. I leaving it in the form of screenplay script for actors.)

(Now, imagine that iconic camera flap snap of a board "Scene: ***, Take: #"; shown in movie making document, that occurs in front of camera, right after director shout: "Camera! Lights!" and before: "Action!")

.

Camera flap: The waste of society and its reformer:

Kuroko: "If the festival fails, the city will be in danger. It will be the worst case scenario for many/you." [In case of the wording, in previous language, it come out, sounded like, like its not set on stone to who Shirai refer. (Many?) or (Him?)]

Index: "Touma, I have a feeling that this exactly fitting into what we were talking about earlier. According to my prediction, my analysis will be necessary to finish the preparation."

Touma clenched his fist tight: "Worst case scenario!? That can't happen. Shirai, I'm in! You can count on us."

.

Camera flap: Some questionable out-off place, Shinto temple person:

Himegami: First you you ram into, as if I was not there and now you acting as if nothing happened.

Kuroko: "If the festival fails, the city will be in danger. It will be the worst case scenario for many/you."

Himegami: "Worst case scenario!? Festival? Food?"

Himegami's stomach, squeaked/moaned loudly: "That must not be allowed! As a warrior for justice, I will do my best."

.

Camera flap: A strange flame priest and a modern-day samurai?:

Kuroko: "If the festival fails, the city will be in danger. It will be the worst case scenario for many/you."

Stiyl: "Worst case scenario!? That one... I'm not going to tolerate it for a second. We'll be there."

Kanzaki: "Hey take your time! They don't revealed yet, where the incident will happen. What if it's a mile away?"

Stiyl: "Don't lie to yourself! You sensing that too! Something will happen there. Or are you worried that you will stand out to much, while for once following the calling of your name? Or is the image of you, wearing a mini skirt that they uniform have, that scares you?"

Blushing Kanzaki, silently rise her still sheathed 2 meter long cantata in threading gesture, as if she will strike him down if he open his mouth. Of course he fully understand, that she not joking, so he make a defensive stance.

.

Camera flap: Vagabond, which gave me a very unpleasant feeling, accompanied by an angel:

Kuroko: "If the festival fails, the city will be in danger. It will be the worst case scenario for many/you."

Accelerator; annoyed: "Worst case scenario!? Is that bastard begging for death, to messing everywhere around? I'll give him the worst case scenario. I'll show them what a real monster looks like." (Mu-ha-ha-ha)

Last-Oder was thinking: "Something don't fit about that forced answer of yours. If it is for a record, try to do one more time. But this time, put more of your usual essence onto it."

Accelerator; more aggressively. "What the hell are you trying to tell me here? Is that scumbag asking for death again? I am right here!"

Last-Oder was still not satisfied. "No! More goosebumps!"

Accelerator; ominously/sinisterly. "The worst case scenario? The retard needs to be taught, who the real monster is and what the worst case scenario looks like; for him."

Last-Oder, finally satisfied: "Um, um, no worries, Snapchat Pervertress san! The support request for the festival, has already been received via the network. Additionally: we were currently on our way to the destination. Delivers Misaka as Misaka, indicating her usefulness."

Kuroko, shocked: "Did you just use, a fancy wording to insult me? Suddenly, I am not sure witch one of you need a reformation."

.

Camera flap: A Hawaii T-shirt, black-glasses Rizzler, trying too hard to hit on one of our maids. Ready to execute an arrest.

Maika, puts her hands onto her hips and complain: "Oh its Shirai san. Are you again slacking behind the scene, while you shall working? Or you desperately trying to pull a quick one, to look good at last second?"

Motoharu turn toward red-head with a big grin smile. "So this is that legendary prodigy of Judgment? I heard a lot of you. Like you have a great potential, but need to be polished to reach it. Like a jumping werewolf puppy, who howls onto distance, during full moon nights. Please try to not put unnecessary extra workload on my beloved Imoto [sister], by skipping your tasks."

Teleporter was taken aback: "Siblings?"

Then Shirai still utter that line, even if its like-half serious, not serious at all tone: "If this festival fails, the city will be in danger. It will be the worst case scenario for many/you."

There was a counter reaction on that blonde boy as for moment, a dark shadow formed on his face, he uttered in half voice. "What those morons think to bite at his favorite? City as whole is one thing, but directly at this place? That's like poking a wasp nest."

Then he runs his hand through his hairs, from front to back a sigh. "What is with this weekend anyway? Fine I do it!"

Next he make once again that grin, rising thumb up. "You are lucky one, werewolf chan! You fetch yourself a spy who will do part of the sniffing for you, right under the nose of everybody. Its a highest time to show my beloved sister that I am the hero I claim to be. In the moment of need, I am here to save the day, save the face for bourgeoisie ladies, and dreams for common folk."

He made a nonchalant attempt to do a gentleman like honorable bow to a lady. For that his sister drag on his ear making a puffed cheek as she was mad at him for making fun of the Tokiwadai student that is in her care. Then she start to admonish, and both of them dint pay the red-head any more attention.

.

[(I added this one now, as I remember this scene, but I don't remember if I implemented it into story. So I writing it now, this version, just in case to not forget about it.)]

Camera flap: Emergency intervention! A hot mess of hotties!

Kuroko, shout: "Stop what you doing!! I am from Judgment!!"

Pissed up Mugino, like a villainess who is ready to beat the shit out of her opponent, holding-up defenseless Misuzu (on ground) like a sack of vegetables, by corner of her shirt. Tea-haired turned her head to red-head. "That don't work on me, kiddo! Wait!... Tokiwadai brat?…"

Misuzu is sweating a lot, holding up hands in (Please don't hurt me!) as she is in deep pinch. "Ku- Kuroko chan!; could you please explain to this person, that I am not Mikoto chan? I am not even esper. Please!"

Mugino hisses at the brow-haired. "I know that. But it don't easy my mood!"

Kuroko, got nervous by the scene in front of her. But instead of her sassy intervention she uttered the line. "If this festival fails, the city will be in danger. It will be the worst case scenario for many/you." And slap herself for doing that thing again, instead of something useful for the situation at hand.

But Mugino gritted her teeth. "Great! Just Great! So this brat is supposed to be my contact for this diversion commission? And its the one who hang around Number-Three. Clever bastard! As if this day cant get any more ridicule. Listen carefully, Kiddo. You maybe on steering wheel of this sugar candy show. But dare to cross the line of my patience and your are dead! I maybe making a pointless scene for be threaten like a sweet bait on this diversion cake. I am apex hunter, on a tail, and they wasting my time, with this detour. But hear my words, at the end of this day, somebody is going to die! So be careful with your tongue, when you address me!"

As she said what she had on heart, she on spot switched to professional mode, as she looked towards Tokiwadai dormitory. "All I need to do, is to attend this shit show, right?"

Misuzu make a sight of relieve.

But Mugino drag her up as she stared toward her face. "Forget, that you are safe! You coming to! I will not be the only one who will be cooked here!"

.

Now were back to Mikoto and Kuroko, as the herald finished this part of her report for her Idol. Misaka with her hands and legs crossed while she sitting on chair, glanced at her roommate. "Tell yourself what you want, about random encounters; this feel like you went through a shopping list. And whats with that?; (Destiny calling for you!) pickup line, you had been using? That don't sound like something you will come up." Shirai was unable to answer as she shrugged her shoulders. "Actually it sound like you had been manipulated, but that snail said she was directly kidnapped from her bed to attend this. No! Somebody must use a lot of influence to pull so many strings…" Then she pause for moment in sudden realization. "Its him!… The only one who actually can!" She trow her hands around in frustration. "Dang it! If his popularity was flat bottom on bedrock, it will crash even more down, after this stunt he pull out." She sighed in defeat. "To be treated like chess piece, really suck. But at last he playing a long game that work with the scenario that this city will be not destroyed, by other fractions."

Suddenly she stand up to stretch her limbs. "Anyway, lets go, Kuroko! This was a dead end, from start!"

[To be true self, to yourself, to your true feelings]

Misaka Worst, in anger kick Shirai calling her a police dog. While Teleporter is on ground, confused, hurt; She is talking about how bad girl she is, while keeping distance as if her body hairs stand up, just from the presence of that short girl. Then the legendary police woman Yomikawa Aiho, show right behind her. Worst sense that smiling woman silent gaze on her back, so she tried to comply to that woman ideology, and try to (correct her manners?) toward that judgment girl.

But that is like totally uncomfortable for the brow-haired girl, to point she sweating a lot, her body shake like in fewer, and words are hard to form.

Then she snap, make step to side to make distance from that police woman while facing her and still pointing at that girl. She start yapping, that she is a malice of the network. That was designed to be a bad girl, to do mischief. That police goodie police dog puppy rag mug, just have an incredibly bad smell for her. Then she blab out some examples of what a bad girl shall do on night.

But because some of those examples were just a summary of what she was actually doing on night, that police woman had a lot to do to keep her forced smile on her face, while a blood vein blood up on her forehead. So as proper guardian she drag that bad girl to have a parent talk in private, leaving Shirai there confused.

Yet that older version of Mikoto was complained, demanding to be let go. But, she dint use her abilities, weapon or strength to set herself free.

[A perfect plan]

Kuroko imagine sharing Mikoto with her own clone. [Clone of Shirai] What seems to be a double fun at start, soon evolve into a scene, where the clone and Mikoto run away, to begin they romantic journey of couple on run. So real Kuroko fall onto her knees, cry shouting after her one and true love. "Sissy~~y!"

.

[Kukoo and Misuzu are talking]

It just a common custom for few people to gather around table of food or drinks to have chat and get know each other. Especially when those are two families, meting because of they children connection. In one certain scene, Kukoo (as older version on Kuroko) and Misuzu (as older version on Mikoto) face each other. The two start talking to each other and very quickly find common ground. They even start giggling together having a good time. Since both of them radiating such aura of a proud mother, they attract attention.

At a certain moment, Kukoo and Misuzu get involved in argument/event, created by a scene where Kuroko strictly scolds Kamijou. So the older redhead step closer and spoke aloud, thinking that he is her boyfriend, but she is such a big tsundere, that she will never admit it in front of anybody.

(Kuroko turns blue, Misuzu laughs, Kamijou sweats, Mikoto panics, while Index having (Not this again!) stare.)

So Kukoo, got emotional and with a happy tear in corner of her eyes, she turn sentimental/romantic. "Looks like the apple, indeed didn't fall far from the tree. But, where's the third one?"

It was more like a rhetorical question, that self answered when Index joins the drama, and rushes to Touma to pick up the fight, to demand explanation as what he's doing. They have quick argue from which Kukoo examines Index and Touma. Asking them a direct question, she somehow guesses correctly, that they both lost their memories at some point.

(Index, Mikoto, and Touma; twitched like if a some big secret was bluntly revealed to the world, with no hesitation; and they are guilty somehow.)

The taller red-head repeat the sentence: "The apple truly did not fall, too far from the tree."; she grab her smaller version by hand, and drag Kuroko to him. She not just pushed that girl onto his torso so her chest was pressing onto his from side as if they were a couple, she even putt his hand over her shoulder and secured it there. Smaller girl protested, about this insult, but taller snap at her, that she doing her a big one, letting her win by secondary appliance/impact.

Misuzu does the same, with her smaller version, while having a mocking smile as if she knows something from backstage.

On the other hand, these girls from Tokiwadai have no idea what they are getting into, as it is too big shock for them.

Kamijou, seeing the overwhelming familiarity between the more woman's version and their more girls version of them; blurts out that as sisters, they are very similar. It was meant more for the read-heads.

.

Except at that moment, half Emo flame Kukoo dropped the bomb. "Boy. I'm glad you take me for what I look like. It really making me happy. But, for the sake of my dear Kuroko chan, I must clarify something. You seem to have misunderstood something and it's time for me, to tell you the truth." She lean forward so deep that he can sneak peek under her slightly open shirt. She rise her pointing finger like if she want to teach him an important life lesson. "Even if it doesn't look like it, I'm not my dear Kuroko's big sister, but her mother."

The grinning brunette, quickly stand next to her partner in crime, in the same pose, having same opening to peak for him. She was quick to add her own line. "Also I am Mikoto chan mom."

With Kamijo's shocking shout of (Heeeeeee?), and Mikoto (No way!); Kukoo and Misuzu, both made a (Peace! Peace!) V-shaped finger gesture with the lid of their finger over their excited eye, as if they were shooting a star or an eye beam from they eyes. All that while their daughters looked embarrassed to the point they froze in place.

.

This Red mommy dropped the second bombshell. "So boy, to skip an entire arc of you and my dear Kuroko chan, walking around each other like a pair of lions around single bush, I giving the two of you plus two, my blessing right now! No need to beat the bush."

Brow-haired mommy strike from other side. "I cant tell it better. Take good care of my Mikoto chan, having my own blessing."

Kuroko gasped with an expression of horror, as she fully realize, what that secondary impact was about, She will technically win, if this Ape will marry both her and her Idol at one go. Mikoto went red as tomato, because she is tsundere pushed into a corner. And Kamijou?; he demanded to know what kind of blessed they were talking about, because he imagine how those two will threatening his life on daily basis. But both women giggle as they make a step back to give the love birds a space.

.

As Index looked devastated, lamenting that the role of Heroine has been taken from her, Kukoo asked her: "Why do you think?; that you're not included in this happy moment? Three plus one is something that has an existing basis, and its proven that work. It's as real as the treasure at the end of an RPG dungeon!"

Before any of the young people could react, Kukoo and Misuzu pushed the third girl into the gentleman's arms. No!; Index hang up onto his neck, and making a puffed cheek frown at him, for him get scared when she do that.

Yet a cry of defeat echoed from the door direction. It was black haired Kanzaki with her Katana. Seeing how the white tea set habit nut do not getting down from him, even when he look so scared, she went down on all four and lament. "I am, to late! She… she… I failed her."

It was not sure who is (that She) in this content, but the duo of red and brown-haired woman approached the third one, and with assumption that this one is the third girl mommy. As they help the black-haired onto feet, they force invited her into they close group, to drink separately from the love birds. It was a clever plan to convince the third one, to lose on the protective mother front and let her birdy to spread its wings.

.

Meanwhile, Kamijou had an existentialist problem. On one side, Shirai fainted out in his arm, foaming from her mouth. On other side, blushing Misaka was out of control, as her eyes was turning around in spiral. And on his front, unhappy Index opened her maw, revealing a sharp teeth to him, in an omen of bite. So the boy make a desperate shout onto heavens. "Such a ba~ad luck!!"

[Note:] I think that this note was inspired by the funny idea of Kukoo and Kuroko, be family related as a form of some funny meme or running gag. In certain way, the actual family background of Shirai Kuroko is vague, and all information are kept shallow. But she seem to have a both of the world, if we taking it from Kukoo character perspective.

[Skepticism of a Truth]

Saten takes the microphone (or megaphone) onto her hand and stand up on edge, (like on lookout spot, lean on some railing, or standing at edge of maybe tall building). She enthusiastically roars onto that device, so her voice is heard not only by the people behind her. Its not only carried across the entire street bellow, but to the city itself. "Shirai Kuroko, the legendary Yuri [yuri-lesbian] lady, officially having a boyfrie-eeeee-end!!!"

The entire group is in shock, but they don't expected to receive a reply to that.

From the opposite side (from another megaphone?), someone received a shock from this shocking news; so it shout back, not willing to believe. "What The Fo-ooo-ok!!!" It was probably that girl, standing atop of a truck with an audio apparatus to boost her street performance (and abilities) as she often be seen to dance and sing from its roof.

[Note:] Okay this snipped is on one half inspired by the constant jokes about Shirai eventually crashing on Kamijou, I event write about it in one of my other stories. Second half of inspiration, is from (Something witty) Sword Art Online parody, where there was this one guy who in critical moment of important talk, loudly ask: "Whaat?!" In clear joke, I put this snipped right after the Kukoo approval stamp.
