(Makoto's PoV)

Fujisaki and I walked to the kitchen where there was already two people there.

"Believe me. This is the sort of thing that would sweep people off their feet. So why doesn't he like it!" The one in chef clothes complained.

"Hanamura, I'm sure that he likes your food. It's just that he seems to like food that well *ahem* pardon my vulgar words but 'makes him take a good sh*t,'" the more larger person with pinkish cheeks explained.

"Hmm you're right you're right. But what exactly makes him take a good sh*t," the one in the chef clothes said.

The more larger person just sighed.

"Oh! What's this? A young couple I see?" The one in the chef clothes said suddenly, turning to us.

I felt myself blush.

"Umm we're not a couple dating," Fujisaki explained and I could see her turn red a little.

"But you two seem to be holding hands. Whether it's platonic or not but I just assume and I apologize for that," the one in the chef clothes said.

Both Fujisaki and I let go of each other's hands, blushing.

"Anyway I am Teruteru Hanamura the Ultimate Cook," he introduced himself.

I've heard of him. His family runs a super popular restaurant around here. I heard his cooking is really good, I hope one day I'll get to taste one of his dishes, I thought.

"Umm I'm Ryota Mitarai(?) the Ultimate Animator," the more larger person muttered.

Oh I have also heard of him! His animations are smooth and amazingly detailed. Not what I expected to see, I thought.

"I'm Makoto Naegi the Ultimate Lucky Student. Nice to meet you," I said.

"And I'm Chihiro Fujisaki. I'm the Ultimate Programmer," Fujisaki introduced herself.

"Now Mitarai and I are a little busy here so do your business here and leave thank you," Hanamura explained.

"Oh we were just going to get some snacks. We'll leave as soon as we can," Fujisaki assured him.

"Hmm ok. Fridge is over there and there may be some leftover cookies in the cupboard. Don't worry I made sure that the cupboard is clean when I came in earlier," Hanamura explained.

"Ok thanks," I said and Fujisaki and I went to the cupboard to see if there really was cookies.

There was.

Fujisaki opened up the fridge and handed me a water bottle before grabbing one for herself.

She also grabbed some strawberries and set them in a bowl that was nearby and washed them.

"I think that's all the snacks we'll need. We'll be leaving now," Fujisaki explained.

"Yeah thanks for being patient with us," I said.

Just as Fujisaki left the door, I got stopped by Hanamura.

"I don't mean to prod into people's business like this. Especially romantic business but I couldn't help notice the dynamic between you two," he explained.

"What dynamic? We're just friends," I tried to explain.

"Nah I have seen you two. I tried flirting with Fujisaki once before Owada and Kazuryu threaten to punch my teeth out. Thankfully, I now know who my soulmate is. But anyway, up until today, I haven't seen you two hang out with each other. People don't just become friends like that. They can become friends after a few minutes of talking about things that seem to interest both people," Hanamura explained.

"What are you implying?" I asked.

"Well I can't give you all the hints. Try figuring out yourself," Hanamura waved me off.

I left the kitchen feeling confused.

"What was that all about?" Fujisaki asked.

"How much did you hear?"

"Nothing much. Just Hanamura telling you that he can't give you all the hints," she replied.

"Nothing important then," I said.

"Well then," she straighten her posture.

"Wanna see what I have been working on? Call it a bit of a side project," Fujisaki asked.

"Sure," I replied.

I was curious on what she had been working on anyway.

We entered her dorm to see that her bed was covered in papers and a laptop in the middle of the bed.

"Sorry I didn't clean up," she apologized.

"No it's fine. It's a great way of showing that you're hard at work," I said trying to sound optimistic.

"Oh...thank you," Fujisaki said.

She advanced towards the laptop and picked it up.

She turned to face me.

"Here's what I wanted to show," she turned on the laptop.

The laptop's screen fizzled before showing a head in the middle. Fujisaki's head to be exact.

"Whoa? What's that?" I asked.

"It's a computer program that I have made. I'm planning on using them for collecting data hopefully to help in situations that someone would need as much information as they need. I call them 'Alter Ego!'" She explained.

"Awesome! They really don't call you the Ultimate Programmer for nothing. This is really impressive," I noted.

Fujisaki blushed deeply at this.

"H-here let me show you how Alter Ego works other than collecting data," she said.

Fujisaki typed something into the laptop.

"Good afternoon Master, how can I be of an assistant today," Alter Ego asked.

"Whoa, what did you type in?" I asked.

"Just something simple. 'Good Afternoon' to be exact," she explained.

"Alter Ego can change forms into many different people in their database. Here let Alter Ego scan you," Fujisaki turned the laptop to me.

"Ok," I tilted my head, curious about what's going to happen.

"Scanning... ... ... Person identified. Makoto Naegi also known as the Ultimate Lucky Student," Alter Ego stated.

"You're now in Alter Ego's database," Fujisaki explained.

"Whoa that's amazing," I said.

"Yep there are only a few specific people who could access Alter Ego, I might put you down as one of them," she added on.

"Fujisaki, I don't know if I could empathize this but you are truly an amazing person," I looked at her, smiling.

She turned bright red.

"Th-thank you. You're also an amazing person Naegi," she said.

"R-really?" I asked.

"You always seem to make a room feel more comfortable. Always can make even the coldest of people smile. You're like a ray of sunshine. I'm glad that I'm getting to know you better," Fujisaki explained.

I could feel my face heating up at this.

I stuttered out a thank you.

Fujisaki handed me a cookie.

"Umm here you go," she said.

"Thanks," I took the cookie.

We stood there for an uncomfortable amount of time.

"T-take a look at this," she suddenly said and grabbed the laptop.

She seemed to type something in and turned it around to show me.

No longer was Fujisaki's head as Alter Ego there but my own!

"Whoa! So Alter Ego can change form right?" I asked.

"Yep! And they can also change voices depending on the person that their form is in currently. Like this," she typed something in.

I saw what she typed in.

Current event that is coming soon?

"Hope's Peak will have a bakery sale soon in order to get the students to learn how to financial manage their money," Alter Ego replied but instead of Fujisaki's voice, it was mine!

"That's amazing. How many forms can they turn into?" I asked.

"A few others. Mondo, Kuwata, Kuzuryu and just recently Hagakure," she replied.

"I have a question. Why do you call Owada by his first name?" I asked.

"It's because we have been friends for a long time. We're platonic soulmates. He's still trying to find his romantic soulmate," Fujisaki explained.

I felt a wave of relief come over me.

So they're just friends. That's a relief

...

Wait a minute?!

"Are you ok Naegi? Your face turned sour all of a sudden. Did you not like your cookie?" Fujisaki asked.

"Hmm? Oh no I did like it. I just thought of something weird regarding soulmates," I explained, waving my hands in front of me quickly.

"Hmm I have mixed feelings about soulmates. Then again, I never had time to think about it since discovering that I had one when I was little in a park. I was busy with other things," she explained and patted down her skirt.

"Oh! I also discovered that I had a soulmate when I was little too. I found out when I took my sister to the park," I said.

"Small world I guess," Fujisaki sighed.

"I should probably leave since you're most likely busy. We can hang out some other time," I said suddenly, walking backwards.

"Hmm ok! Maybe tomorrow after school," she suggested.

"Yeah, t-tomorrow seems fine," I left while waving goodbye at her.

(Chihiro's PoV)

He waved goodbye at me but just as he left did I noticed something.

Something red on his finger and it was thin.

I could still see it even when he shut the door.

I glanced down at my pinkie and saw that the red string has appeared again.

"When a red string appears on your pinkie after meeting with someone, that usually means that they are your soulmate!"

That's what Momma said once I told her about seeing my string.

Back then, I was afraid that my soulmate might have been one of my bullies.

How could I spend the rest of my life with one of those bozos!

But now...

"Naegi might be my soulmate," I gasped out loud before covering my mouth.

No one was in the room with me other than Alter Ego.

And I'm hanging out with him tomorrow. It will be awkward hanging out with someone who could potentially be your soulmate and especially when they probably don't know it's you!

"Sh*t," I muttered.

I rarely swear. Only when I need to. This was one of those times.

I need to talk to someone about this. Someone who is usually good at giving me advice.

Mondo! I thought.

"Wait here Alter, I'll be back," I said while typing it into them.

"Ok Master!" Alter Ego faded away and I went to search for Mondo.

Now where could he be? I wondered.

"Oh Kirigiri!" I called out to the lavender haired girl.

"Hmm? You need me Fujisaki?" She asked.

"Do you know where the detention room is? I'm sure that's where Mondo is," I asked.

"It's down the hall where our classroom is. Across the unused classroom," Kirigiri explained.

"Ok thanks!" I said and ran in that direction.

I found the detention room.

I opened the door quietly and saw Mondo and Ishimaru...

Making out.

...

What the f*ck?

A/N: good place to end.
