Pairings/Characters: Aiba/Sho, Ohno/Nino
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Beware of a cute baby Ohno in this story (although Ohno is always cute, baby or not ;)
Notes: It's time for VS Arashi! ٩(˃̶͈̀௰˂̶͈́)و So since the chapter was too long, I split it into two parts (hopefully that's okay with you). This chapter is Part 1 and it focuses on the entire opening of the episode (which is pretty long, mind you). Part 2 will be posted on my birthday (YAY!) and it'll focus on all the games. And lastly, I would like to get one thing straight: I love ALL HSJ members (so if it seems like I'm bullying certain members here, I'm only just playfully teasing them ^^)~
Summary: An accident occurs when one of Aiba's experiments go wrong. And unfortunately, Leader was in the wrong place at the wrong time...

Chap-7 VS ARASHI!
"Saa, it's been really cold out lately...eh, Nino?" Sho started off, stopping as he looked at Nino. From the corner of his eyes, he spotted Ohno behind the camera, sitting on the staff lady's lap as he held his fishy tightly. Ohno was staring widely in wonder at everything around him.
"Hm? Oh yes, I've been drinking more cocoa lately because of this freezing weather." Nino told him, also taking a peek at Ohno.
Jun swiftly checked Ohno and was relieved that the baby was behaving so well. "You know, you're fashion has definitely hit a new level this time."
Nino bugged out his eyes comically as he looked down at himself. "Really? I think I look more normal than usual."
Sho shook his head, an amused look on his face. "I wouldn't call it normal but rather plain- so plain that it's actually standing out too much compared to the rest of us."
Their fashion theme for that episode was 'All-white'. From left to right, Aiba wore a long white collared shirt with white shorts and white sneakers. Jun wore a white dress shirt and white skinny jeans with a thin white jacket tied around his waist and white combat boots. Sho wore an opened white shirt with another thin white t-shirt inside, white pants, white dress shoes and a white cap on his head.
Lastly, Nino was wearing a plain white t-shirt that was long enough to end just below his crotch and white leggings that only reached above his ankles. And of course, his footwear were a pair of white beach sandals.
"I feel like the show ran out of budget for my outfit." Nino commented, fingering the bottom of his shirt.
"But at least your shirt is long enough to hide 'it'." Aiba pointed out, only talking then since his focus had been on Ohno since the show started. He hoped that Ohno would enjoy himself during the show. "Since you're wearing white leggings, 'it' would definitely show through."
Nino looked confused for a moment before widening his eyes as he looked down. "Ah! These leggings would definitely show 'it'! Thank god this shirt is hiding 'it'."
Sho guffawed loudly as he realized it too. "But your shirt is barely covering 'it'."
Jun pointed at Nino. "If you show 'it' on national television, it's all over. We'll bring back MDA just for today, all for you." He threatened playfully.
Nino's eyes widened in shock, "Oh my god- and today is a special so it might actually happen. This is bad- Damn!"
The rest of the members and audience were laughing at their antics. Calming down, Sho announced that they were filming a winter special and that they would be playing a total of seven games. He began to introduce their guest team until the audience began eh-ing.
Nino suddenly realized what their problem was and cheekily said, "It's not 'eh?!' Us members already acknowledged that the spot next to me is empty, we need no other acknowledgement than that. So let's move on, ne~" Nino ended with his signature wink, although deep inside he was praying to all the gods that they could just bypass Ohno's absence.
Fortunately, Nino's plan worked as the audience were now laughing and cheering again. Sho gave a grateful look towards Nino before facing the camera. "So let's bring them out. Here's today's guest team! Welcome!"
The smoke came out from the left side as all nine members from their kouhai group, Hey!Say!JUMP, came out very lots of energy.
While the audience went wild, no one noticed that Ohno had accidentally dropped his fishy on the ground in the excitement of it all. Unfortunately, the staff lady that was holding him was a huge fan of Hey!Say!JUMP and didn't notice Ohno's beloved toy on the ground.
"Fishy! Fishy!" Ohno tugged on the staff lady's sweater, trying to get her attention. "Cuse me, Fishy is on da gwound!" But sadly, the staff lady was too distracted as her eyes were glued on Yamada Ryosuke.
Slowly, Ohno's face started to crumble.
"So today's guest are our kouhai, Hey!Say!JUMP!" Sho introduced, all the Arashi members watched with amused expressions on their faces as each member was introduced properly.
"Isn't there too many of you?" Jun demanded, pointing at them.
"Yeah, only half of you should have come." Nino added, smirking at them.
"Senpai, please stop that!" Arioka Daiki shouted, laughing.
"The ones who came here already don't need to come again- like Iio." Sho spoke out.
"IT'S INOO! Geez..." Inoo Kei yelled back, both of them exchanging a fake look of irritation between them. Everyone laughed at the playful banter both groups exchanged.
"But it looks like you're missing a member." Yamada noticed, pointing at the empty gap between Sho and Nino.
"I was looking forward to seeing him play the most." Chinen Yuri confessed, pouting a bit that his idol wasn't there.
Nino was the one to reply. "Actually, you know how most people would usually avoid going out during this cold weather? Well, our leader isn't like most people and decided to catch the flu by going out fishing for about thirty hours."
"Eh, really?" The Hey!Say!JUMP members exclaimed as murmurs of 'I hope he gets better soon' echoed from the audience. The Arashi members secretly stole a look at each other.
Sho stepped forward and spoke, "Now let's introduce our guests who will by playing with us today-"
"WAAAAAHHHHH!" Sho froze, as well as everyone in the studio, at the sound of a baby crying. The members of Arashi immediately turned their gazes to behind the camera, knowing who pose cry it was coming from.
Ohno was wailing loudly in the panicked staff lady's arms, his face red and big fat tears streaming down his face. The staff lady was trying to calm him, but Ohno refused any comfort. He was wriggling frantically, not wanting to be held by her anymore.
"Whose baby is that?" One of the JUMP members, Takaki Yuya, whispered. There were also murmurs among the audience as they watched the tiny baby wailing loudly.
The Arashi members looked at each other for a brief moment before silently moving towards Ohno. They knew that what they were doing was most likely a very bad idea, but they really couldn't ignore their crying baby- especially when they knew that he wouldn't calm down unless he was held by one of the members.
"Satoshi, come here." Aiba called out when he was the first member to make his way to the baby.
"Mama!" Ohno cried out, frantically kicking out as he held his arms to Aiba. Aiba didn't notice how the crowd went wild at the name the baby called him.
Aiba grabbed Ohno and cradled him gently into his arms. "Shhh...it's okay now. We're all here. Shh..." Aiba murmured, rocking the baby back and forth.
Nino stood by Aiba's side, checking Ohno first before giving a deathly glare at the staff lady who was supposed to be caring for Ohno. "Why is he crying?"
The staff lady cowered away from Nino's glare, terrified and confused about what had happened. Nino felt a hand on his shoulder and looked to see Sho giving him a stern look. Nino took a deep breath to calm himself as Sho looked at the staff lady. "What happened?"
The staff lady raised her arms up helplessly. "I don't know. He just started crying." The lady looked like she was about to cry herself. "I'm really sorry!" She apologized, bowing her head deeply.
As Sho told told the woman that she wasn't in trouble, Jun noticed something on the ground. Picking it up and patting whatever dirt or dust may be on it, he went to Ohno who was still bawling and held up the toy in his hand. "I think he dropped this." Jun offered the fish toy to him.
Ohno's cries lessened as he saw his fishy. Sniffling, he grabbed the fishy and hugged it close to him. "Fishy." Looking at Jun, Ohno shyly said, "Tank yoo JuJu." For the first time, Jun wasn't bothered with the nickname as he grinned at Ohno, patting the baby's head.
The Arashi members smiled at Ohno as the baby began smiling, giggling as he watched his fishy change into different colors. As Nino grabbed a tissue to blow Ohno's nose, someone from the guest team spoke up.
"I didn't know Arashi-san had a baby." Nakajima Yuto commented. The Arashi members froze as they realized that they were still filming and now everyone's attention was on them.
Acting quickly, Jun plastered a smile on his face as he announced, "Actually he's our newest member of Arashi." A lot of 'Ehh's?!' echoed from the audience as the Hey!Say!JUMP members wore dubious looks on their faces.
With Ohno in Aiba's arms, the Arashi members went back onto the set. Deciding to go with Johnny's cover story, Sho explained, "This is Satoshi. The truth is, this baby is from the agency. Johnny-san told us that he's thinking of letting each group take care of a baby as some sort of 'training'. We were the ones that he's testing it on." Everyone in the audience gave sounds of understanding, approval and excitement at the news.
"Wait. So you mean we might have to take care of a baby too?!" Yabu Kota asked, his usual small eyes widening in shock.
Nino smirked as he took Ohno into his arms and gestured towards him. "If things go well with us, then of course your group is gonna have to do it."
"I'm actually excited about it." Yaotome Hikaru pumped his fists. "I hope we get a boy."
Inoo rolled his eyes and sighed. "If Hikaru is the one taking care of the baby, then the kid will definitely be doomed."
Nino snorted. "I doubt the baby would last long in any of your arms- especially yours." Nino made a face at Inoo.
"Hey!" Inoo countered. "If Arashi can care for a baby, then Hey!Say!JUMP can definitely do it!"
"What did you say?" Jun demanded, walking threateningly towards Inoo.
Inoo stepped back while putting his hands together in front of him. "Nothing! I'm sorry!" Looking at Okamoto Keito, Inoo gestured for him to help.
Keito caught it and looked towards Jun. "Sorry, Jun." He apologized in a halfhearted manner.
"And YOU!" Jun yelled, pointing to Keito. "Stop apologizing to me in english!" The audience laughed as Jun began chasing both Keito and Inoo (the two JUMP members were apologizing- in Japanese- the entire time) until Aiba and Sho stopped him.
"Doesn't Satoshi have the same name as Ohno-san?" Chinen commented, as soon as they were all settled down. Chinen was moving closer, observing the baby closely.
Refraining himself from cursing at the younger boy, Nino held Ohno more tightly as he said in a casual tone, "That's why Jun said he's our newest member. Anyway, he's cuter than Leader, isn't he?" Nino asked in a teasing voice as he wiggled a giggling Ohno in front of him. He got the response he wanted as the audience began laughing and Chinen grinned, letting out a laugh.
"He's definitely cute." Chinen agreed, smiling at the baby as he moved away. Nino sighed in relief.
"So are we going up against a baby?" Yamada asked, raising an eyebrow.
"I don't think-" Sho started before he stopped as Aiba nudged him in the side. looking at Aiba he saw the taller man pointing to something. Following the direction, Sho saw the cue card that the AD was holding up. "Satoshi will be our plus one guest." Sho read. His eyes widened. "Eh?!"
"Yay! This will be so much fun!" Aiba shouted as he grabbed hands with Ohno, jumping up and down in excitement. "Are you excited Satoshi?"
Ohno was giggling happily as he nodded. "I wike pwaying games! We win!" He exclaimed happily, his cheerfulness was infectious as the audience was cooing at him and even the JUMP members thought he was adorable.
"Are you sure it's okay for Satoshi to play with us?" Sho questioned, looking worried.
Ohno automatically face him with his puppy eyes, pulling out his lip slightly. "I a big boy! I ca pway! Pease papa?" Ohno pleaded.
Sho sighed as he nodded his head. Pleading eyes and the word 'papa'. Add in the voices of the audience begging him to let Satoshi play as well and it really was a bad combination.
"I've been wondering about this, but why does he call you papa and Aiba-san mama?" Arioka wondered, curiously.
Aiba was the one who answered this time. "It's because that's the names he gave us when we first met him." He explained. "It's so cute, ne? He also calls Nino 'Kazu' and Matsujun 'JuJu'."
"JuJu?" Inoo snickered, trying to hide his smile behind his hand.
"OI!" Jun yelled, reaching out to strangle Inoo as the younger man quickly dodged his hands and apologized furiously again.
"Okay, let's move on to the first game -" Sho stopped as a shout was heard suddenly heard in the studio.
Everyone looked to the right side of the studio and were surprised to see comedian Bananaman's Himura Yuki rushing onto the set, his face red and panting.
"Wait a minute! What about me?!" Himura demanded, pointing to himself.
"Huh? What are you doing here?" Jun asked, furrowing his eyebrows at the man with a bowl haircut.
Himura looked at all their blank faces with a look of disbelief on his own. "What am I doing here? I'm your Plus One guest!"
Nino faked a confused look on his face. "Ah, sorry but we already have one." Nino pointed out mischievously, holding up Ohno for Himura to see. "You can go home now." He said, waving him off.
Himura's jaw dropped. "You're replacing me with a baby?!" He shrieked.
"Of course we are." Jun crossed his arms around his chest, giving Himura a superior look. "How many times have you been here already? There should be a limit on how much times a guest can appear here." He pointed out playfully, a fake look of disgust on his face. Jun really loved to make fun of Himura.
"Now wait a minute-" Himura started before getting interrupted.
"He should stay- he can help babysit Satoshi with us too!" Aiba suggested, grinning widely.
"Huh?" Himura choked out.
Nino sniffed. "As if Satoshi would want to be anywhere near him." He hugged Ohno closer to him as the baby looked at Himura with wide eyes.
"What is that supposed to mean? I'm great with children!" Himura announced, puffing his chest out in pride.
"Really?" Sho questioned, looking at him skeptically.
"Of course I- WAIT!" Himura stopped as he faced the members, "Why am I the babysitter all of a-" This time he was interrupted as the director yelled cut, saying that they had to get the set ready for the first game.
All the Johnny's were snickering as they moved away from the set, with a furious Himura Yuki yelling after them.
