Title: A Little Change
Writer: macymacymacy
Main characters: Yamada Ryosuke, Shida Mirai, Nakajima Yuto, Chinen Yuri
Guests: Kamiki Ryunosuke, Sakamoto Shougo, mentions of other classmates
Teaser: Small changes might seem to be trivial, but even they can change the bigger picture.
AN:
-main pairing would be YamaShi and there's an implication of UmiChii, but if anyone likes to add a NakaShi/ChiiShi element or even OhgoJima and other Horikoshi pairings, that's fine. The more, the merrier! XD
-right aligned - third-person view (meaning not in Chinen's point of view)
Chinen's POV
Second Period. Science. Takuo Henjou-sensei.
The topic is really interesting. Everyone is listening to sensei.
Not.
Honestly, I'm super bored..
It's not really the subject. It's more of the teacher.
He just drone on and on, ignoring his students. It's like he's talking to the blackboard.
Umi-chan and Non-chan are chatting at my left. Cindy is looking out the window at my right.
Yama-chan, though I can't see him cause he's right at my back, is surely sleeping. He always does. Him and Miki. And they sit side by side.
It's surprising sensei doesn't notice them, or maybe sensei just doesn't bother with them.
Some of our classmates were trying to listen. Jingi-kun was staring right at sensei. Yuto, too, though he's now yawning. Suzuka is following sensei with her book and beside her, Mirai was actually taking notes.
"Itai!" I heard Yama-chan said.
I looked back. Shougo just poked him with his ballpen.
"What was that for?" He whispered angrily.
"I'm bored." Shougo said and then he went and poke Kamiki as well.
"Itai!"
"Do something before I die of boredom." Shougo said.
I placed my hand on Yama-chan's desk to get their attention.
"Save me as well, I'm dying." I said. And that wasn't very much an exaggeration.
"Shhh!"
It was Mirai. Ever the responsible class officer.
We just smiled sheepishly at her.
After a while, the four of us started talking again.
Just random things.
And then Shougo started immitating Takuo-sensei.
It was very accurate, it was hard stifling our laughters.
Mirai has directed another glare at us, but it was left unnotice by the others because it was just too entertaining.
Takuo-sensei is very intelligent. Really, he's a genius but then... he's... well, he's weird. He has these strange mannerisms and he always talks about--eventhough no one is really listening-- he talks about his 'inventions.'
Seems he thinks himself as a 'mad scientist.'
He's mad alright, but I'm not sure about the scientist part.
And finally, finally, the bell rang.
Our other classmates started moving then, as if woken from a nap, and others literally woken from a nap.
Sensei had said our homework for that day amidst the chattering students. And then he called for Mirai and Yuto to help him bring the projector and laptop back to the faculty room.
I watched as the two of them, plus sensei went out the room.
-
Third period was study period.
Yama-chan had stood up and stretched then.
"Wanna go for a bite?" He asked.
I just shrugged and stood up as well. Better stretch my leg.
We made our way down the cafeteria, Miki and Shougo with us. There were no students in the hallway. Seems we're the only one whose sensei is absent.
We passed by the third science laboratory.
We have three, but we only use the other two. One for Biology and the other for Chemistry. The only thing I know about the third lab is that it's a self-claimed faculty room of Takuo-sensei. According to our previous senpais, sensei never leaves the third lab if not for classes or faculty meetings.
The door was open. I remember he has class in 1D now... Hm, Ryuu's probably sleeping by now.
But it was the first time I saw the lab open. Maybe sensei was in a hurry?
I stopped as I got a peek inside the room. The other three were already about five steps away from me when they noticed I stopped.
"Chii? " Miki called.
I gestured them to come closer.
"Guys..." I said cautiously, pointing at the lab.
They took a glance at it and went silent. We were all shocked.
Inside doesn't look like a high school science lab, it looked more like a storage room.
Storage of what seems to be machines.
What the hell is this?
Gaping, we stepped inside.
There were so many, uh, unique devices. I don't really recognize most of it.
So it was true. Are these sensei's 'inventions'?
"You've got to be kidding..." Yama-chan breathe. That pretty much summate how I feel.
There were even some with blue and white lights. It was as if we entered a set of a sci-fi movie.
We walked around in amazement, looking at each 'machines.'
Miki had took one of the devices from the shelf. It was round and black. "Ah, Gantz, anyone?" he said.
"How about Icarus?" I said pointing at one, um, thing on the table. It was like a wing made of metal of some sort.
"Hey, look!" Shougo called.
He was behind another, er, machine. It was like a big telescope-gun hybrid or something. Like the sort of gun from a Gundam anime and attached to it was a monocular. There were blinking lights at the end of it.
"What is it?" I asked, approaching him.
"It says here, 'Height Machine.'" He said, reading the label.
I let out a chuckle at that.
I'm still shocked, but I also think this is cool. Never thought of sensei much, but this... this is really incredible.
"You just need to be shot by this and your height will change... I think..." Shougo continued. The two of us were looking at all the buttons and triggers of the machine.
"Look." I pointed as both Miki and Yama-chan watch us. "There's a sensor right here. You just need to stand there by the wall." I said, pointing at the place where the gun/monocular was aiming.
"Cool!" Miki exclaimed. "Yama-chan, Chii, try it!!"
Yama-chan glared at him. "What do you mean by that?"
"Well, you can now be taller..." He said, ever the KY.
"I'm pretty satisfied with my height." I said, shrugging. "Umika said she doesn't want to have to tiptoe when she kiss me."
"Ugh." Shougo groaned. "Too much information, Chii."
"Well, Yama-chan, you try! You always say you want to get taller!" Kamiki insisted, ignoring us.
"No way. That's a weird machine. I'll never try that." Yama-chan said.
"Come on." Shougo said. "Nothing to lose. Frankly, I think nothing will happen. But what if, you know, you can shot up? That would be great, ne? Let's try it! I think I know how to do it now." he said, looking at the buttons.
"No way." Yama-chan repeated.
"Let's try it on other things first!" I suggested.
"Let's do that!" Miki said and he went and got a chair and placed it right by the wall in front of the machine.
Shougo aimed. And then he pushed the red largest button.
A green light shot from the end of the machine right to the chair. There was a sort of chirp-like sound and then a flash of light.
The chair grew about five inches taller.
"Woahh!!!" The four of us chorused.
"It works! Yama-chan, you next!!" Miki said, pushing Yama-chan by the wall.
"Wait! No! I still don't want to!" Yama-chan said nervously.
"Why? Come on!" Miki insisted.
"Wouldn't it be weird if I suddenly become Yuto's height or something???" Yama-chan said.
"Ah, well, you have a point..." Miki said.
"How about an inch taller than Dai-chan?" I said. Yama-chan grinned at that.
"Let's do that then! There are numbers here. I'll just set it to one and a half inch." Shougo said, minding the machine. "There all set!"
"No, this is really--" Yama-chan started but then.
"What are you doing here?" It was Mirai-chan. She looked aghast.
But Miki, being as KY as ever, invited Mirai inside the room. "You can get taller too!"
"Ha???" Mirai said confusedly.
"Taller?" Yuto was with her. It seems they just got back from the faculty room.
"Okay, I'll do it, if Mirai does it, too." Yama-chan said.
I laughed at that.
"Do what?" Mirai asked.
"Sensei actually have inventions." I said as I approached them. "We found this 'height machine.' And we thought Yama-chan should give it a go."
Yuto laughed.
"Come on, let's do it Mirai!" Yama-chan said.
"Are you mad?? How can you be sure that's what it does?? Does sensei know you're here?" Mirai asked.
"We've tested it!" Yamada said, looking at me for support.
"Yeah," I just said, and gestured at the chair. "It grew."
"Besides, we really need to get taller." Yama-chan added.
Mirai glared at him. And I know another argument will start.
Really, this two. They were close during first year (and according to Miki, during all those times since Tantei Gakuen Q) but when we became second year they became like this. All they do is bicker and bicker and snap at each other.
Our other classmates say they just changed, grew apart or something, 'cause that sometimes happens between friends.
I think that's rubbish.
I mean, it began when Mirai started having romantic roles. Around the time of Mirai's first kissing scene with Hayashi Kento.
Yama-chan became awkward around Mirai then. And that was also when he started doing this extra fanservices, doing sexy dance and stuffs. No, it wasn't the agency's order. It was all Yama-chan.
Mirai had laughed at one of his performance goodnaturedly, but Yama-chan snapped back at her.
And that's when the bickering started.
So my guess would be, it's just unresolved sexual tension.
And mind you, I always guess right.
I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't know that's what it is, though. They're as dense as Takuo-sensei. They couldn't express themselve to each other so they end up snarling at each other.
Yuto had approached the two then. I know he'll try to interfere before the two exploded again.
But the two were beaten to it.
I saw the green light spreading through us for a second and then there was an explosion of light.
White, blinding light.
And then everything went black.
---
"What happened?" Kamiki said, looking at Shougo.
"I accidentally pressed the button..." He said, fear in his voice. "But Miki... where did they go??"
After the flashing light faded, they had found themselves alone in the lab.
--
I groaned as I opened my eyes.
My head was throbbing. What had happened?
I wasn't familiar with my surroundings, but fortunately not far from me was Yuto, Mirai and Yama-chan.
I approached them. Yuto was stirring.
"Are you okay?" I asked as I help him stand up.
"Yeah.." He said. "What happened? Where are we? Aren't we just in the lab?"
"I don't know." I told him as we both look around. It was a very large place but I was't sure if it's outside. We were standing on a very white floor and there's not much things around us. The nearest was miles away and it was like a pole or something.
"Mirai-chan, Yama-chan." We called as we tap them on their backs. Uhm, only Yama-chan since he had fallen on top of her.
They also started stirring. They were as disorganized as I felt.
But then we heard a very deep voice.
But it was very familiar.
Kamiki?
It was very loud but yet, it sounds from far away. It was as if it was echoing.
It sounds like it was from above.
I looked up.
I gulped.
And I realized what happened.
"Uhm, guys?" I called them. "Did everything just became big or did we just shrink?"

つづく
AN:
-just to be clear, they became around one to two inches tall.
-inspired by 'Honey I Shrunk The Kids'
-i don't really know, but i hope we can fill the 12 pages. basically, the whole story should just be maximum of three days duration (or else our idols will be missed). so yeah, the story needs many details for each scenes. that being said, maybe we should add another challenge to make the story longer? for each chapter, let's make use of one (or more) of the main character's POV. like the first would be Chii's then the next would be Mirai's or something (you can add minor character's POV, if you like.) Mods is this okay?? If not, then that's fine with me as well. :D
We can give each of them adventures while they are small... (like being chased by a cat or Suzuka picking Yuto up without noticing it or something)... the story is really vague and can go to any directions, so yoroshiku! I'm excited at how this will turn up. xD
