Back with the second chapter, thanks for those people who read. XD Was testing to see if it'll work out…kinda did…thankies! XD

You guys watched the OVA? It was epic, right? Man, I'm so happy and depressed at the same time…we won't be seeing Lucky Star on screen anymore…unless there's a season two or something…(yeah right) ah well, the Volleyball game got me all riled up for this chapter, I loved seeing the twin rivalry…Jet Stream Attack! XD

Note: The words in Italics are thoughts of whoever character is in the scene...except for Hiyori's doggone Yuri specs that are enclosed in these (-) thingies. The ones in bold are things that aren't dialogues from the characters in the said scene (in this case, it's mostly the audio from TV) I guess. XD

Disclaimer: This traditional part of the fanfiction format has grown old and therefore will be ignored unless I use new stolen—erm, borrowed material. I mean, why would I be here if I owned the darned things?!

Now, onto chapter two…enjoy!

Fatal Error

The surrounding was bleak, and there was laughing, the kind of laugh you wouldn't like hearing. Even so, she kept trotting onto the messed hallway…then and there, a sudden pack of pale apparitions started materializing before the limp girl, passing through her like she wasn't there. Stunned for quite sometime, a sound of what seemed like a ringing bell brought her back to consciousness…it was the same jingling that kept ringing in her head, the one that made her leave her younger sister behind for the sake of following it. Once she reached the sliding door to the heart of the house, the hollow, mad cackle continued on, only it was louder than before…and it sounds as if it came from inside the next quarter. After a few seconds of hesitation, the girl decided to slide the door open.

Why did you leave me…?

There was someone standing in the middle of the room. It was a woman, probably about her age, wearing a white kimono covered in blood; a broken ceremonial rope was tied to her waist, sinister aura surrounded her entirety, despite having two lovely crimson butterflies flocking around her. The insane laughing apparently came from her direction; her unmoving posture made the other lass grow curious enough to approach the former and try to talk…

You never came back…

A momentary white flash overwhelmed the area. As soon as it faded; a girl who looked exactly like the one earlier can be seen opening a door. And onto the same messed hallway the other girl walked into. It wasn't the same treatment however, for there was a hostile phantom that loomed over to attack her. Fighting the creature off, she used this old-fashioned camera to somehow exorcise the oppressor. Once successful, she carried on to the sliding door of the center room and tried opening it. Upon entering, the same furious laughter resonated in her ear. Trying to ignore it, she went over to the shiny object that was lying nearby. After examining what it was, she stood again, only to see the entire floor filled with rotten corpses.

The girl backed away in fright, she needed to get out of there. Accidentally stepping on one of the dead bodies, she gave a small shriek. As if to reply, that body started moving, it was trying to reach her. To make things worse, the lifeless entities suddenly began crawling and groaning, they were all geared towards her. Panicked out of her mind, she froze in place, trying her best to keep her cool and think of what she should do. Her feet unconsciously gave her a step back, but instead of securing her, it gave another problem…she felt a different presence from behind her.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha!

It was the woman with the bloodied kimono; her maniacal screeching kept going like a broken record.

"O-oneechan!!" Tsukasa screamed.

She was definitely spooked; her eyes began to water as she clung onto her sister tightly.

"H-hang on," A sweatdrop graced her rather calm face. "No so tight…"

Just behind the woman in bloody kimono, appeared yet another menacing being tied in ropes. It was bigger and more ominous-looking than anything Kagami have seen so far.

Oh great, is my character going to die in here?

The screen went back to control mode, and the pigtailed girl reacted quickly to move her character away from the ghost's range. Her sister was not looking at screen anymore; she had her head buried on the crook of her twin's neck already, shaking all the while. Looking at her in a 'you're hopeless' kind of way, Kagami moved her analog stick to aim the camera at the wacko. Once she did shoot, nothing happened.

"What the…"

The monster's threateningly shifting closer, as the current player, now quite alarmed, tried using different films…still no use.

"W-what's with this thing?"

Her character was just a hair away from being touched. Given no choice, she decided to just move on to the next room to get away. Fortunately, the gesture worked. The eerie sound that came out of the speakers finally came to a halt, signaling that the coast is clear. "Abunakatta…" (1) The 'older' twin sighed in relief as she wiped a few sweat beads on her forehead.

Feeling her sister's shoulder un-tense in her hug, Tsukasa loosened her grasp and looked up at her. "T-that was…re-really scary…"

"…y-yeah, I have to admit, some of the scenes are kind of unnerving…" She maneuvered her character to the nearest save point.

"B-but you were great!" Her hands were clasped eagerly in emphasis. "If I was the one playing, I would've tossed the controller already…"

"Well you watched most of everything…you normally wouldn't, so I'm impressed."

"That's all thanks to you, oneechan. It's like you're courage is seeping through me as you play!" She narrated in full enthusiasm, looking significantly elated.

Scratching her flushed cheek, she replied; "…er, that sounded like something Konata would say…but well…um, you're welcome?"

The short haired girl just chuckled in reply, it did sound kinda weird, but she was telling the truth.

"Anyway," After the file overwrite, she began turning the console off. "It's getting quite late…I'm gonna stop playing for today. You've done your homework, right?"

"…eh?"

"Don't tell me…"

"I totally forgot!"

"Say, Miyuki-san…" Konata started, looking pretty forlorn for a sunny afternoon.

"Yes, Izumi-san? Is something the matter?" Was Miyuki's curt reply, stopping in time before she took a bite of her broiled eel.

"You know when you think nothing's really wrong, but you still feel this weird feeling in your stomach that something's not right?"

"Oh…the feeling of uneasiness? Yes, I've been in those situations before, it is quite bothersome."

"Are you feeling that way, Kona-chan?" Tsukasa asked curiously, her smaller friend did look like something was troubling her.

"Don't bother you two, it's homework. She didn't do any of it and now she's feeling edgy." True to being the tsukommi of their group, Kagami indifferently affirmed her opinion as she sipped from her juice box.

"…well, that too…but…" The blue haired girl absently answered back.

Getting a little worried, the Akari look-alike tried calling out. "Kona-chan…?"

"Miyuki-san." The otaku stared intensely at the meganekko.

"Y-yes?" She responded unsurely, she never really knew what was running on the other girl's mind.

A few minutes have passed, and a rather uptight ambience grew on the four girls, Konata being the promoter. She just stared at Miyuki in a way that could beat at old man with an ulterior motive. Her mouth was stuck looking like an upside down triangle as she said the word; "Jiiii…" for the longest time.

Being the voice of reason was clearly tough. "Knock it off, will you? You're scaring her."

Surely enough, her green orbs calmed, her feline-like smirk returned, and every detail of her appearance reverted back to her usually lazy self. "How come you never call me by name? You call Kagami and Tsukasa by theirs." She spoke casually.

The heavy atmosphere that was building up suddenly died out after that question. The three girls developed a sweatdrop on their heads.

"Come to think of it, I've been wondering about that too…I mean, we've always hung out and stuff." Kagami was the fastest to recover in that brief stupor.

"Sonotori!" (2)

"E-eto…I wonder why too?" Miyuki instinctively said in the cutest way possible, giggling afterwards to strengthen the effect.

Sasuga Miyuki-san! (3) Masterfully dodged!

"Anyway, Konata…do you plan on working on your homework or not? Even Tsukasa did it this time."

The said girl's eyes turned into buttons. "This time…?"

"Tsukasa sure has it easy. Having a sister who can't stand her having the wrong answers…"

"Oi…oi…" It's as if she wasn't there.

"D-don't say that!" The purple haired girl blushingly demanded. "B-besides, she did it on her own…I just helped her!"

"Mm…a tsundere-like answer, how cute!"

"Shut it! Work on your homework already!"

"Vicious as always…"

"I said shut up!"

Konata wasn't lying about that unsettling feeling. In fact, it was still troubling her. She's in track of her manga list, Yu-chan is fine and resting at home, she didn't miss the anime lineup, she was sure she didn't break any dishes at work yesterday, she was certain Kuroi-sensei already logged out when she went back online…nothing was particularly out of the ordinary. So what was this big void that makes her so uncomfortable? Even after teasing Kagami, nothing happened. And in theory, doing that made her day satisfying…

"Muu…what is it…"

She decided stopping at Animate for a while, maybe the answer's in there, she thought.

"Irrashaimase!!" The clerk practically shouted at her face.

'Densetsu no Shoujo A is here! Bring out all the latest merchandises!' A guy who wore this ridiculous captain-like hat said in silent ardor.

'Hai, Tenchou!' All the staff members seemed to understand their manager even without a verbal order.

She may not show it, but she always observed that there was some racket going on whenever she enters the shop. The manager look so fierce, and the clerks are over enthusiastic with their movements. There was even one time when she saw this guy gliding in between the aisles like a crazed R0okma0, knocking almost all of the goods with his eyes burning with unfathomable passion. Not to be pragmatic, but even someone as eccentric as her found the whole deal strange. "Maa, ii ka..." She aimlessly wandered around the store, observing every now and then the clerks that appeared to be following her.

'Good, she's heading to section C…there're new volumes of C0oymo0e and Hao0to n0 G0o0ku in there…be sure to make her see it!' Something like blazing fire can be seen behind him.

'No good sir! She took a detour and headed to the figurines!' One of the clerks reported.

'Then make sure the Ha0oho and M0kur0 figures are in the front lines! Also, there're Ba0bo0 B0ode releases recently, show those too!' The manager ordered, but no words were said.

'Another feint! She's now in the DVD section!' Another clerk announced.

'Alright, this time—

"Izumi-senpai? Is that you?"

"Oh…oh! Hiyorin! You're here too?"

"Yeah…I was looking for the DVD version of Ca0oy B0y…"

"Oh, that? Sakuya's voice sounded a lot like Kagamin, no?"

"…Hiiragi-sempai?" The fujoshi paused for a second. "Oh yeah! She's has a twin tail too!"

The two chattered away, ignoring the eager clerks that were trying their hardest to make them notice their products.

"So, are you gonna make it a lot more echii this year?"

"I'm thinking about it…see, looking for a reference is hard nowadays...and I like keeping it original…"

"I have just the thing for you…"

The blue haired otaku went over to a certain rack of DVDs and scanned it.

'Densetsu no Shoujo A is in search of something!' The female clerk informed.

'Is Va0po0e Kn0oht and all the other new ones in the stack?!'

'Affirmative, sir!'

"Boo. It's not here…"

'WHAAAAAT!!' The look of failure fell upon them.

"Ah, what was it?"

"It's called Sh0oj0 S0ot…that one's full of action…" Konata whispered mischievously.

"Oh! I've read the manga…erotic indeed…" Hiyori nodded her head as a suggestion of agreement.

"Mm-hm, getting ideas from that will be fruitful!"

"Actually, senpai…"

"Nn?"

"Just yesterday, I saw the Hiiragi-senpais…"

"Yeah?"

"Erm…how should I put it…" She placed a hand to her chin in contemplation. "…they're...Minami-Yutaka-ish?"

It took a couple of seconds before shorter otaku started speaking again. "…huh?"

"Twincest, senpai. Twincest!"

Twincest…Twincest…Twincest…

"That's it!"

"W-what?"

"Hiyorin, you've gotta hear this!"

The manager cried as he watched the two figures leave his shop. 'Next time for sure!'

…

"So basically, you want me to play this game and make a doujin out of these characters, am I right?" After all that irrelevant talk about Osaka and allergies, Hiyori finally got the gist of what Konata was saying. They sat on the soft futons the Izumi residence provided, talking for quite sometime regarding the details of her steadfast pining.

"Yeah! I'll even help you out. It's a promising game, you won't be bored!" She bore a thumbs-up sign to better stress her point.

"…Alright, I'll give it a try…my theme for this year's Comiket is twincest anyway…" The Hiiragi twincest was interesting too…

"Atta girl! I'm counting on you!"

The answer did lie in Animate, and she was damn right to follow her otaku impulse. Now all she has to do is help her fellow fan beat the game. The Mio-Mayu craving she's been imagining since completing Zero is slowly becoming into reality, and she was totally psyched. She had her full faith on the fujoshi to pull it off, considering how she managed to impress her with the doujin works from the last Comiket.

"So senpai, where's the game?"

"Oh, hold on for a sec…I'll go get it."

It was by fair chance that she was able to go and see how Yutaka's been doing while there. The girl wasn't at school earlier, which had her worried. Since last week's incident, she's either not there or was urged by teachers to just rest up at home. Iwasaki-san may not be vocal about it, but she was the one that was distressing the most, much to her and strangely, Patty-chan's amusement. But stopping over to her place unannounced was not a good idea, so she dismissed the idea for another day. As she waited for her senpai to return back with the game DVD, she thought of ways to get the idea of the Hiiragi twins going at it 'differently' out of her screwed head.

"Ah!! This won't d—

"WHERE IS IT?!" A horrid cry rang the whole household awake.

"Se-senpai?

Konata came out of the room crestfallen. "It's…it's gone Hiyorin…it's not here!" She exclaimed dramatically.

"Hnn?"

"What is it, oneechan?"

"Didn't you call me just now?"

"Eh? No…"

"…that game must be getting to me…" Kagami wearily muttered.

Not knowing what to say, Tsukasa just blurted out the first thing on her mind. "…yogurt?"

…

Tsuzuku

...

Japalingo:

Abunakatta – roughly translated to; "That was dangerous…"

Sonotori – more or less, "Exactly."

Sasuga Miyuki-san – also a rough translation that says; "As expected of Miyuki-san!"

Yay! Done at last! XD Again, this wasn't beta-ed, so go ahead and point out all the oddballs. XD Now then, how was it? I've grown so sleepy when I was close to finishing it, so the last part might be quite random. But anywho, Lucky Star is random so to heck with that. Oh yeah, I've temporarily decided not to put up any pairings yet...it's heavy on the hinting though, I assure you that. Argh, all this talk about egg and sausages has gotten me hungry…XD Nah, just screwing. XD Thanks for reading…also, reviews are highly appreciated. Me signing out!
