"Code names?"

The Mekakushi Dan stared at the idol in the pink hood. For once, she liked the attention she was getting, seeing how everyone else was ignoring her just moments ago.

"Yeah. I thought that since we're a 'secret organization' and all, we need code names to call each other by," she explained.

"Obaa-san, you're sounding like a kid," said Hibiya.

"I don't want to hear that from a brat like you. Hey, Dancho, what do you think?" She turned to the leader.

The eyes turned to the other girl and she felt like using her eyes, if not for the knowing smirk on Kano's face. "Um, well, we never actually used any code names since this was founded."

"Which means we should!" Momo urged.

"Then I vote Master gets called Red NEET!" Ene exclaimed from Shintaro's phone.

"Wait. Why do I have to be called one of these nicknames? And why Red NEET of all things?"

"You don't like it? Then what about..." She thought - or at least seemed to be in thought - about a name. A couple seconds later, she told him. "Hero NEET!"

As much as he hated to admit it, that sounded cool, if only NEET was replaced with something else. "No."

"Soda NEET?"

"Why do you keep insist on calling me a NEET?"

Kano snickered. "Ignoring them, what should we call Kido? Ghost Girl?" His comment earned him a kick in the ribs by the ghost girl.

"Well, since Kido can turn invisible, shouldn't we call her Phantom?" Seto suggested, earning him a glare. "Just joking." He turned to Mary who sat next to him. "Hey, Mary, what do you want your code name to be?"

"Um..."

"Oh, you don't have to tell me now."

"I think Seto should be called Forest," she said.

Seto laughed. "Alright. Then Mary will be Fairy. How about that?" The girl instantly smiled, and he smiled with her.

"As for this kid," Momo started as she pointed at Hibiya, "he should just be Cheeky Brat."

"Then Obaa-san is Aun Obaa-san," he retorted.

Sparks flew between the two.

"Cheeks."

"Cow."

"Shota."

"Loli."

"How am I a loli? Stalker."

Hibiya visibly flinched. "Fake Idol."

Momo was running out of code names for him. Hibiya, noticing this, smirked in victory.

Meanwhile, Konoha looked around at the commotion. Shintaro was still talking to Ene. Kano seemed to keep annoying Kido, seeing how he was being punch and kicked all the time. Mary and Seto sat next to each other, content. Momo was desperately trying to think up of a code name while Hibiya walked over to him.

"Code names sound childish," the young boy commented.

Konoha disagreed. "They seem fun."

Hibiya gave him a look and sighed. "I guess."

"Can I have one too? A nickname?" he asked.

"Hmm? Let's see. How about-"

"Cloud!" Ene suddenly exclaimed. "Konoha should be Cloud, because he's always drifting off, and his hair's white!"

"Ene, if you can think of a nickname for him, why can't you come up with a better one for me?" Shintaro practically whined.

"Cloud, huh? It fits you," said Hibiya.

Konoha smiled.

Almost an hour later, most of the members had a code name. Seto wrote them down on a piece of paper.

#1 Kido: Dancho

Kano sighed. Kido didn't like any of the code names he came up with, so they just stuck her with that, to Momo's disappointment.

#2 Seto: Forest

It matched with his green hoodie, and Mary was the one who gave him the name. Seto wasn't complaining about it.

#3 Kano: Evil Eye

Shintaro thought it would be more appropriate to name Kido that, considering how she was giving Kano the evil eye.

#4 Mary: Fairy

Mary wasn't complaining about it either, despite still thinking she was a monster. Well, if Seto acknowledged her as a fairy, then it should be fine.

#5 Momo: Siren

Not the police siren, but the mythological Siren. Momo wasn't sure how she felt about that.

#6 Ene: Lightning Dancer

Shintaro felt like capturing her face. For once, she was actually speechless.

#7 Shintaro: Kick the Soda

Now it was Shintaro's turn to be speechless. Who came up with that name? It was worse than being called a NEET.

#8 Hibiya: Boy Scout

Momo held her chest high. She finally found a name for him. Boy Scout glared at her. If only he could have named her something else.

#9 Konoha: Cloud

Considering what a cloud was like, everyone thought it fit the absentminded albino.

Ene recovered from her speechlessness. "Hey, who named me Lightning Dancer?"

LightningDancerEne, the name from her old life. She never expected it to reappear again, not after she disappeared from the face of the gaming world two years ago.

"I did," said Konoha. "It suddenly popped into my mind."

"Speaking of which, I remembered a user named LightningDancerEne," said Seto. "It's an amazing coincidence that you have the same name and it fits you."

Yeah, it was amazing. To think Konoha remembered it. She hid her emotions with a wide smile.

"Haha! Prepare to face the wrath of the Lightning Dancer! Bang!"

Unfortunately for Shintaro's (and Kido's) weak heart(s), she included the sound of a real gunshot.

"Ene!" Shintaro yelled.

She laughed. She cast a fleeting glance at Konoha.

Hey, Haruka, please remember me. I...love you, Haruka.


Thank you for reading my first fanfic. I hope it wasn't too bad. I had first planned to write and angsty HaruTaka fic but decided against it. This may or may not become a series of drabbles. I'm undecided about this. For now, it will be completed.

Good luck me in trying to write more.
