"My name is Kusuo Saiki, and I'm...
an ordinary high school student."
Still yet bouncy brown hair, coffee brown eyes, black prescription glasses (Like Kuboyasu's), a male's PK Academy uniform, and two small, silver earrings.That was the appearance of an ordinary boy who was on his way to his high school.He silently stared ahead as he passed by Mr. Matsuzaki."Hey!"The student paused as he turned and faced Mr. Matsuzaki.Mr. Matsuzaki seemed slightly shocked as he inspected the boy closer."Oh!" He smiled slightly. "Are you a new student?"The boy shook his head. Mr. Matsuzaki raised an eyebrow."Then who are you?"Suddenly, a voice called out."Saiki!"A boy came over and stood by Saiki (brown haired boy). He then looked at Mr. Matsuzaki."Hey, Mr. Matsuzaki."Mr. Matsuzaki looked dumbfounded. He glanced between the two boys."Kaidou?! Saiki!?"Kaidou nodded.
He had short, fluffy, blonde, almost toe-head hair, ocean blue eyes, a male's PK Academy uniform, and scarred arms.He smiled."We decided to change our looks a bit."Mr. Matsuzaki nodded before motioning for the two to go on. Saiki and Kaidou nodded before walking into the school, leaving Mr. Matsuzaki standing there, surprised.
When the two entered the classroom, they noticed Nendou, Kuboyasu, Chiyo, Teruhashi, and Hairo standing by Saiki's desk, chatting.Saiki walked over to the desk and sat down in it. Kaidou went over and stood in front of Saiki's desk. Everyone seemed confused from the two "strangers" being there."Hey, uh-" Aren started. "You do realize this seat is taken, right?"Kaidou smiled. "Oh, Aren! Saiki already knows." Saiki turned his head and nodded.It took a moment, but eventually everyone's faces turned to one of shock."Saiki?! Shun?! Are you kidding me?!" Kuboyasu yelled.Kaidou only smiled.Teruhashi and Chiyo approached them and inspected the two. Kaidou's face flushed red and Saiki's remained the same emotionless void it was.Nendou went over and patted Kaidou's head."Doesn't change the fact that you're short, runt!"Kaidou frowned."Shut up, Nendou!"Kaidou leaned up against Saiki's desk while Saiki silently watched."Do you like the new look, Saiki?"He nodded.How did they end up looking this way in the first place?
Saiki laid his head down on his desk. Toritsuka blinked and poked him.
"Hey! Why are you so down?"
Saiki looked up at him.
'I want to be ordinary.'
"You want to be ordinary?"
Saiki nodded. Toritsuka gasped.
"But you get so many babes looking like this! Why would you want to look like... Uh..."
'Satou. Satou Hiroshi.'
"Yeah, him."
Saiki sighed. Toritsuka smirked. "Well, more ladies for me."
Toritsuka walked out of the classroom, his wooden Getas clanking against the floor. He bumped into Kaidou.
"Oh. Chihuahua guy."
Kaidou looked at Toritsuka. He didn't really care about the nickname at the moment.
"What did Saiki say over there?"
Toritsuka raised an eyebrow.
"He said he wanted to look ordinary or something."
Kaidou nodded and entered the classroom. Toritsuka shrugged and walked to his own class.
"Saiki!"
Kaidou happily ran over to Saiki and ducked so they were face to face.
"I have a surprise for you after school!"
Saiki's face lit up.
"No, it's not Coffee Jelly."
Saiki frowned.
"We can pick some up on the way, though."
Saiki started beaming.
Kaidou smiled and patted his head, earning a glare from Saiki.
"You are such a moodswinger! Calm down!"
Saiki looked away.
"I'll see you after school."
Kaidou held his hand out. Saiki clasped their hands together, creating a perfect dab. Kaidou then walked off while ranting about the Dark Reunion.
Saiki currently had a blindfold over his eyes as Kaidou styled his hair. This isn't want he was expecting as the "surprise", but he could just revert it if he didn't like it.
Saiki felt Kaidou putting what felt like gel into his hair.
Kaidou put his hands on Saiki's shoulders, lifting him and guiding him to the bathroom.
"No peeking!"
Saiki sighed. He didn't really have a choice. His x-ray vision went right through the blindfold. Though, he had no idea was was being done to his hair to to the lack of mirrors.
He grabbed a towel and wrapped it around Saiki's head.
After 4 hours of drying, Kaidou removed the towel and washing Saiki's hair.
Eventually Kaidou blowdryed it and smiled.
"Suits you."
He took off the blindfold. Saiki didn't feel a difference. Kaidou grabbed a mirror and handed it to him.
Saiki looked at himself and-
SHATTER!!
Kaidou jumped.
"What was that!?"
Saiki ran a hand through his now dark brown hair.
Saiki's head snapped p and looked at Kaidou.
Kaidou shakily handed him a pair of black prescription glasses.
Saiki took them and raised an eyebrow.
"Y-You said you wanted to be ordinary, right...? Do you not like it...? I can dye it back..."
Saiki shot up and hugged Kaidou tightly. Kaidou smiled and hugged him back, patting his back.
"And, another thing."
Saiki pulled away. Kaidou pulled out a small box and handed it to Saiki. Saiki opened it and noticed two sphere silver earrings.
"It's to replace your Limiters."
Saiki nodded before-
...
Saiki glanced back at him.
Kaidou scratched the back of his head. "I... I did my research, I promise..."
Saiki's eyebrows narrowed.
'So you know about my powers?' He said Telepathically.
Kaidou jumped. "Well-Yeah."
Saiki sat on his bed.
'Did Kusuke tell you?'
"Huh? Oh, no."
Saiki seemed confused.
'Then how did you make me new Limiters?'
"...I may or may not have taken yours while you were asleep one time..."
'Okay, you do realize how dangerous that was, right?'
Kaidou nodded. "I put in a replacement."
Saiki raised an eyebrow. Kaidou held up a needle.
"Substitute."
Saiki raised an eyebrow.
'How is a needle a substitute?'
Kaidou pulled out his antenna and showed Saiki the sharp end.
"It pokes your brain. It's putting pressure on a certain area."
Saiki sighed.
'So how will the earrings work?'
Kaidou went over and sat next to Saiki.
"I'm gonna have to-"
'Nope.'
Saiki's ears were suddenly pierced.
"Uh huh."
After a little bit, Saiki had the earrings in. Saiki had also put on the prescription glasses.
"There you go. I made it so the earrings were stronger than your previous limiters-"
Kaidou pulled out his old Limiters. "-so you don't have to worry about using your powers when you try to do certain things."
Saiki stood up and suddenly punched the wall.
...
Nothing happened.
Kaidou scratched the back of his neck.
"You can only use your powers if you actually want to."
Kaidou looked back at Saiki and Saiki was beaming.
"S...Saiki?"
Saiki stood up and grabbed Kaidou by his shoulders.
"You are the best, Kaidou!"
He spoke. He spoke for the first time.
Kaidou laughed. "Hey, hey. No problem."
