Author's Note: Kids talking about adult stuffs. Awkwardness ahead. Sometimes I wonder if I've pushed the limits too far, but please remember that this is from the POV of 7 or 8 year old children and didn't get their mind polluted by p***.


It was lunch break.

Touma and Shiage were seated beside each other while Rikou, Misaki and Accelerator was seated together on the other side of the table.

What a crowd. Touma thought.

This was the first time that he sat with that many people for lunch. His misfortune before he entered Academy City meant that nobody other than his parents dared to come close to him, not to mention eating with him.

Most importantly, Misaki was smiling, enjoying the company. This must also be the first time for her being with that people.

I'm glad she's smiling again.

Also, the people giving Misaki disgusted or fearful looks seemed to have decreased. Apparently, there was a rumor that the Accelerator's ability can cure Misaki's star virus just by touching her.

Since she has been 'cured', there was no need to fear Misaki.

It took one ridiculous rumor to counter another ridiculous rumor. The star virus never existed in the first place.

I think this must be another reason why she's so happy.

Touma felt happy that Misaki's life was getting better.

Meanwhile, a question has been bothering Rikou since yesterday. A question that her deceased mother always insisted on keeping it a secret with a wink.

You're still too young to know such things. I'll tell you when you're older.

To ask that question from the person that caused her mother's death. How ironic.

But Rikou asked anyway.

"Hey Kamijou, can I ask you a question?"

"What is it?"

"What is sex?"

Touma almost spat out the food in his mouth.

"Huh?!"

Rikou once asked her mother where did she come from. She said that all babies, including her was created nine months after going through a process called sex.

Shiage said, "What's that? Sex? Sounds like a fun game to me. Let's do it together!"

For Touma who understood what sex meant, that scene horrified him.

"Hamazura." Rikou said, "It's not a game. It's a process to make babies."

Shiage put a finger to his chin, "Hmm... I see." before turning to Touma.

"Want to make a baby together? Sounds like fun to me."

Touma froze with an awkward expression.

Why don't you just shoot me instead.

Rikou kept her cold, emotionless look on Shiage, and Misaki looked at him confused while Accelerator stared in disbelief.

"Err... I may be wrong, but guys can't get pregnant." Misaki said.

"Why not? Sex is a baby making process right? Is there a gender prerequisite then?"

"Idiot Hamazura. Did your brain get flushed down the toilet? A guy can't fucking get pregnant. Where will the baby come out from then?"

Shiage knew that babies probably came from the area between a girl's legs when he vaguely remembered seeing a baby emerging from there. For guys, it should be the same.

"From the same area of course."

The images in Touma's mind got increasingly disturbing.

Touma shook Shiage, "You're kidding right? Please say you're kidding, and that it's just a joke. Of course you'd have enough general knowledge that guys can't get pregnant, right?"

Shiage said, "Really? I didn't know that."

Unable to withstand Shiage's idiocy meter, Rikou let loose a fist, knocking him off his seat.

Back on his seat, Shiage rubbed his nose and sighed.

"You're so violent, Takitsubo."

"Because your idiot meter has risen beyond 9000."

"I'm not a idiot! Just because we've only seen girls pregnant doesn't mean that the possibility of guys getting pregnant is zero. How about you explain why isn't it possible, Miss Genius Takitsubo?"

Rikou was at a loss for words because of her knowledge gap about the baby making process called sex.

Shiage puffed out his chest, " See. I knew I was right. Prepare yourself for I'm going to punch you back!"

Accelerator raised her hand, "Wait. I know why."

"Really?" Shiage said.

"According to the definition of sexual reproduction I learned in Biology class, it is a mode of reproduction involving the fusion of female gamete and male gamete, which forms a zygote that potentially develops into genetically distinct offspring.

As far as I know, the fusion of two male gamete is impossible, and because the male gamete enters the female body to merge with the female gamete inside, that's why only girls can get pregnant, not boys."

The four stared at Accelerator, unable to understand a thing.

Touma said, "... You mean sperm entering the female body, combining with the egg inside, forming a baby?"

"Yes." Accelerator said. "But I've always wondered how exactly do the sperm enter the female body. Do you know?"

"Touma, you seem like an expert in this. Why don't you tell us?" Misaki said.

He had taught Misaki about how she should prevent people from touching two important areas in her body. Misaki felt that Touma must be a very knowledgeable person.

Touma looked at the three curious pair of eyes. (One didn't show it on the surface) His body stiffened. The exact process was vulgar and embarrassing to him.

Was this how my parents felt when they taught me about sex?

One day, Touma used his father's laptop to help search how to prepare potato stew on the Net for his mother. Unfortunately, he ended up typing pornato because he forgot the spelling for potato.

It was then when Touma got curious after seeing the urban dictionary definition for pornato and searched for pornography.

His father rushed beside him when he heard strange noise coming from his laptop. After his parent's honest sex talk with him, Touma understood what sex meant.

"Umm... you know there's a difference between guys and girls right?"

Accelerator nodded, "The biggest difference would be that the long, dangling cylindrical-like thing between the guy's leg is known as the penis, and as for the girls... we have a hole known as the vagina."

"How do you know so much?" Misaki asked. "You're even more knowledgeable than Touma!"

"I was in an accelerated program before I got transferred into this class. Apparently, they said since I had better control over my powers now, I should be fine being in a normal class."

"I see. That's really amazing. Then Touma, were you in an accelerated program as well?"

Misaki remembered Touma's genius feat when he was in her class holding her hand.

"I guess you can say so... my mother taught me Math up till high school's standard. She wasn't very good with Biology, so I don't know much about that, but Physics is really simple."

Accelerator smiled, "When it comes to Physics, I'm undefeated."

Because of her Vector Manipulation ability, an immense knowledge about Physics was a must.

Shiage said, "Did you say that the area between the girl's legs is a hole known as the vagina?"

"Yeah...?" Accelerator said.

"I see. I thought that there wasn't any difference."

No wonder a baby could emerge from there... because there's a hole.

Accelerator added, "Ah yes, if I remember correctly, the the sperm is produced in the testes, and comes out through the penis, but what are the conditions required for that to happen? Once I understand this, everything would be clear."

Shiage had finally solved the mystery regarding this baby making process called sex.

"I think I now understand how babies are made through this process called sex."

"Really?!" Touma said, surprised.

"Listen very carefully."

After making sure that he got the rest to pay attention, Shiage continued.

"It's simple really. Us guys have to use our penis to pee inside this vagina. This is how the sperm can enter the female body. Other ways could include the mouth. I never knew it was that simple!"

Rikou popped a vein, "Hamazura."

The black clouds hovering above Rikou was a bad sign.

"Ye-Yes?"

"Are you implying that you have to treat us like your personal toilet bowl to make babies?"

Misaki and Accelerator looked at Shiage with a disgusted face.

"That's mean... Is making babies really like that?" Misaki said.

"I've... never thought of it this way." Accelerator said, unable to erase the image that appeared in her mind.

"Bu-But that's the only thing that comes out! I'm sure the sperm is somehow mixed with pee!" Shiage said.

Rikou sent Shiage onto a fast and furious trip towards the nearby wall with a fist.

After returning back to his seat, Shiage sighed once again, rubbing his face and his back.

"And to think I just recovered from my back injury... you're so violent, Takitsubo."

Rikou said, "Kamijou, please tell us that Shiage is wrong."

"Of course that's wrong... and Hamazura, don't you find that idea disgusting?!" Touma said.

"It was a logical guess... ouch, my back hurts."

Misaki and Accelerator heaved a sigh of relief.

"Touma, then what is the truth?" Misaki asked.

"The truth is that... Hamazura is partially correct."

"Eh?! You mean... guys really have to pee inside us to make babies?!" Misaki said, slightly trembling from fear.

Accelerator almost fainted. It was too much.

Touma said. "Wh-What I mean is that guys use their thing to push in and out through the vagina. After a while, something else other than pee will come out, something white and sticky... yeah."

It was awfully similar to the 'milk' that the girls were forced to drink from the guard. Rikou thought.

Shiage smiled, "As expected, it's really that simple, and I was partially correct! Takitsubo, how about we make a baby together later?"

"No."

"Why? All I have to do is to insert my penis into your hole. Push in and out, and somehow a white sticky stuff will come out and enter inside your hole. After some time, a baby is formed, and I thought making babies was as difficult as math. I didn't know it was so easy."

"Hamazura. Putting in your penis that you use to pee everyday into my hole is disgusting."

"I'll wash it squeaky clean."

Once more, Shiage hopped aboard a wild trip towards a familiar wall, courtesy of Rikou's fist.

Misaki sighed, "No wonder... there's so many of us being abandoned."

"What do you mean?" Touma said.

"I mean, since making a baby is so easy, if our parents get tired of us, there's no harm in throwing us away since we can be replaced easily. As for me, I'm a defective good that can be replaced. No wonder my parents abandoned me just like that."

Shiage said, after returning to his seat. "I wasn't abandoned though."

Rikou glared at Shiage, and he decided to change the subject. Talking about his past would eventually lead to talking about Rikou's past. They were neighbours before entering Academy City after all.

"Did your parents passed away then?" Touma asked.

Shiage forced a laughter, "How about you, Yuki?"

Touma could tell that Shiage didn't want to talk about his past. It must have been something very painful to him.

Accelerator said, "It's Yuuki, not Yuki. How many times must I repeat myself."

"It's a fitting name." Misaki smiled, "After all, your skin is as white as snow."

Accelerator thought about her other Child Error facility she was in before something happened. Her first name given by her caretaker was Yuriko, which means lily child because she was found in a bed of lilies inside a basket in Academy City.

One day, she ended up severely injuring a few people with her powers. In order to cover up this incident, her real name got permanently erased, and her name became Accelerator, the codename for her Vector Manipulation ability. Yuuki was her alternate name she gave herself because Accelerator as a name was weird to her, and she wanted courage to move on.

However, yesterday's incident when Accelerator reflected the fire from Asami onto Rikou's chain, causing burns on her hands reduced his confidence in controlling his power. Somehow, Rikou could still punch hard enough to send Shiage flying into a nearby wall.

"I was abandoned when I was a baby." Accelerator said.

"I see..." Misaki said, "If I had a baby, I will definitely not abandon him or her!"

Touma said, "I'm sure everyone here thinks the same as you."

Shiage sighed, looking at Rikou eating her food with her usual emotionless look.

You still can't get over that incident huh.


Classes for the day was over.

Touma and Shiage was making their way back the boy's dormitory.

Shiage put both hands behind his neck, and sighed.

"I really want to make a baby with Takitsubo."

"My parents said that making a baby isn't like adopting a pet cat or dog. You have to take care of them for life, and it's a thousand times more expensive and harder to be a parent. We have this facility in Academy City partially because of irresponsible parents who decided that having a baby was too much for them. Are you sure you want a baby?"

"I thought it might well... cheer Takitsubo up. She's always so gloomy."

"Is she always sad? No wonder she always has that emotionless look." Touma asked.

"Ever since that incident, she has always been like that."

"What incident?"

Shiage paused for a moment.

"Can I trust you?"

"Huh?"

"You promise you'd keep this to only yourself? Don't tell anybody, not even Shokuhou or Yuki."

Touma nodded, "Sure."

"Ever since Takitsubo's mother died in a car accident, she's always been like that. I really owe her mother a lot, always taking care of me. My mother ran away, and my drug addict father can't do shit, except for getting more drugs."

"Oh." Touma raised his right hand up, with a bitter smile. "Hamazura, do you know that this hand has caused so many deaths and misfortune that I can't even count who my victims were? Takitsubo's mother might even be one of my victims."

"Come to think of it, you did mention that you're a very misfortunate person. Wait... did you appear in a supernatural show once?"

"How did you know? I was forced though, and because of this, my parents eventually sent me to Academy City."

Shiage sighed, "I don't really believe in that misfortunate shit myself. I think that because of your own misfortune that you always meet people right before bad things happen to them. It's not your fault, so don't blame yourself."

Touma didn't agree with Shiage because if such incidents stopped right after his Imagine Breaker was activated by negating its first supernatural phenomenon, then it's definitely because that his misfortune spread to others like a virus. Bad things happen when he meet people. If he never met them, nothing bad would happen.

"Don't worry, my right hand is safe now. Such a thing will never happen again."

"What do you mean?"

"Nobody will be cursed by misfortune just by coming close to me. If it was in the past, you'd been dead by now."

"... Well, that's great then. By the way, tomorrow is Saturday."

"So?"

"We might have a chance to leave this boring place."


Misaki, Rikou and Accelerator walked past the empty table at the girl's dormitory entrance. Because of Rikou's electric shock from yesterday, it seems that the guard wasn't able to show up for 'work'.

Misaki said, "Takitsubo, have you been checked before?"

Rikou's lips shifted, mentally wincing. She had been checked multiple times, and each time was unforgettable. Like a stubborn stain that refused to go away.

"Promise you won't tell Hamazura?" Rikou said.

The both nodded.

Rikou decided to be honest. It was a necessary risk to gain their trust. Shiage must never know about this, and telling them increases the risk of him finding out.

"Yes. I hated it."

"As for me, I've never been checked before, but I heard it's kinda enjoyable, many girls liked it after a while. Why do you hate it?"

"Because I just don't like that feeling. I feel... violated."

After hearing Touma said that, Rikou finally found the exact word to describe her feelings towards that disgusting check.

"Violated?" Accelerator asked. "I always thought that it was a logical check to see if we're really girls. Of course with my barrier, he can't even touch me."

The biggest difference between a guy and girl was in the area between their legs. If one wanted to determine whether a person was a guy or girl, touching that area to confirm was logical.

"I don't like that area being touched. Of course I feel violated if somebody were to touch it."

"Oh..." Misaki said. "Touma taught me not to let anybody touch that part, even if it's for checking purposes. Well, if that guard was a female, then it might be okay to make an exception, but definitely not a guy. I have to reserve it in perfect condition for the somebody that I love."

"Make sense." Rikou said. "Hmm... wouldn't that person be Hamazura."

Rikou realized that she spoke her thoughts aloud.

Misaki leaned towards Rikou, hugging her arm with a sly smile.

"You love Hamazura? If you've reserved that area for him, then why won't you make a baby with him? Isn't that why that area exists? Other than peeing of course."

Rikou broke her usual cool demeanour, and became flustered. She made a mistake, and things were spiralling out of control.

"I'm no-not ready! I just don't like the idea of having any other thing going inside that area... even if it's Hamazura! An-And how about you? You love Touma right? Then do you want to make a baby with him?"

Misaki broke free, with a red face.

"Wh-What do you mean by that? I do-don't really love him! Al-Alright, I'll admit it! I love him! I'm ready to have a baby with Touma at any moment!"

Meanwhile, Accelerator said to the two blushing girls.

"My room is over there. See you. Don't worry, I saw and heard nothing."

After Accelerator left, Rikou and Misaki was left staring at each other.

"If you tell Hamazura, I'm going to kill you!"

"If you tell Touma, I'm going to kill you as well!"

Accelerator appeared from behind after a while.

"Oh yeah, tomorrow is Saturday. We might be able to leave this place if we're lucky. Any plans?"

The both responded.

"I'll think about that later."

Tomorrow might prove to be very interesting.


Author's Note: Firstly, I didn't except that much support from you guys. Thank you so much! I'll continue to do my best :)

About this chapter... it was meant to be a comedy chapter and it could be summarized as 'an extremely honest conversation between kids about adult themes.' I haven't written comedy in a long time that I hope that it'll at least be amusing enough. When writing this, I felt really awkward myself. Kids can really be so innocent. Or that I'm portraying them as too ignorant for the sake of comedy, hope that's not the case. Please point it out if that's the case.

It's a YMMV kind of chapter I think. You either like it, or you don't.

Small Japanese trivia: Yuuki in English means Courage, while Yuki in English means snow. Just though I'd put it here to make things clear.

To Guest (1): I err... don't get your question? Specifically, this part.

'They don't care about the well being of espers growing up at all morally, but this would reduce potential higher level espers from molestation.'

If they don't care about the well-being of espers growing up at all morally, then it make sense that the higher-ups might turn a blind eye to such things... if you have the right connections. By the way, I should mention that the guard... isn't really a guard. It's just an excuse.

To Guest (2): Thanks :)

Of course, I hope that you guys liked it, but if you don't like it, it's understandable.

If you have any comments, just leave them in the review box below.

See you.
