"Hey, Miyuki..?" Konata asked her friend. It was after school, and she, Tsukasa, Miyuki, and Kagami were hanging out at McDonalds eating some burgers and talking. The burgers had been eaten long ago, but the group still hung around and kept chatting. "Yes, Konata?" "I bought this at an antique store the other day, and I have no idea what it is." Konata pulled an old-looking square device out of her pocket. The device had a small screen on its front, and on the side there was an arm that could be pulled out to reveal a needle. "What is that thing?" Kagami asked. "It looks like it was built in a garage."

Konata shook her head. "Beats me. If I knew, I wouldn't be asking." "Where did you buy it?" Tsukasa piped up. "If you can remember the store name, we could go and ask them." Konata shook her head. "That's a good idea, but we can't do it. The shop was having its closing-for-good sale, so Dad and I went to check out the bargains. That's when I bought this." "Why on earth would you buy this?" "'Cause it looked cool. Plus, it might have been something really rare. You can't just let rare items pass you by!" "Oh brother.." Kagami sighed.

"Um..could I look at it?" Konata nodded, and then handed the device to Miyuki. She started to look at it, and while looking at one of the sides, pricked her finger on the needle. "Ow!" Konata sighed. "Again, another aspect of moe..I don't understand why no one has asked you out yet, Miyuki.." Miyuki, instead of replying, looked at the device quite oddly. "What is it?" Tsukasa asked. "Before I pricked my finger, there was nothing on this device. Now there is." "Ehh?" "It reads-'Midi-chlorian count: 3,587.'"

They all stared at each other for awhile. "Midi-chlorian?" Tsukasa mumbled. "I wonder what they are." "Well, that's why we have the expert Miyuki with us!" Konata smiled. Miyuki scratched her head. "I'm sorry..I have no idea what Midi-chlorians are. I'll have to look them up next time." "Hmm..this has to be something odd if even Miyuki doesn't know." Suddenly, Kagami's cell phone rang. "Hello? Oh, hey Dad. Tsukasa and I are with Miyuki and Konata. I'm sorry..I just lost track of time. We'll be home soon." Kagami hung up. "Well, we've gotta go. See you two later." "See you!" Tsukasa chimed in as the two twins wandered home. "Well, I should be heading off as well. Its getting late." Miyuki said, standing up, and giving Konata her device back. "I'll see you later, and I'll try to look that thing up for you." She chirped, heading on home. Konata put her device away, and then headed on home herself.
