Period 3: Sensation

The next day sitting in class Mero made a point to observe Asuna closely. Of course it was astronomically unlikely that she was anything other than an average middle school girl, regardless it wouldn't hurt to focus a little extra attention on her.

"Alright class," Negi said, "Who would like to translate this sentence for me?" No one raised their hand. "Okay how about Asuna-san?"

"WHY ARE YOU PICKING ON ME!" Asuna immediately snapped.

"Fu, fu, fu, how like a monkey." Ayaka said. "What are you getting offended for? Just answer the question. Unless of course you can't do it."

"O-Of course I can!" Asuna countered. "Let's see um 'Jason ate the flower for his lunch', um . . . 'but then dogs came to help' and um . . . "

"Asuna san," Mero observed "You are really bad at English."

"Guu" Asuna couldn't deny the transfer student's claim.

"Not just english, she's also bad at math." Ayaka said.

"And history." Haruna said.

"Japanese too, aru" Ku Fei added.

"And she's horrible at science." Hakase put in.

"In other words" Ayaka concluded, "She's a genuine idiot."

"I see, Asuna-san is an idiot." Mero agreed.

"Hey hey! Don't just blatantly insult someone with such a straight face!" Asuna cried.

Their next class was gym. As they ran down the track it became clear that Asuna's poor performance in the classroom was not a reflection of her skill on the field. She easily blazed past most of her classmates on the track. The only ones who managed to keep pace with her was seat number 9 Kasuga Misora, and Mero herself. If she'd been able to use supplementary magic she could have easily broken the sound barrier during the 100 meter dash, but even without magic her artificial muscles still put her on the level of an olympic athlete. It was nearly unthinkable that not one but two ordainary middle school girls were challenging her. She took first place of course, but only by a very slim margin, with Asuna and Misora finishing close behind.

"Haa, haa, wow." Misora wheezed. "You're really good. Why don't you join the track team?"

"Hey hey, just because I turned you down you immediately go for the new girl? You're such a fickle woman Misora!" Asuna joked.

"Nope, I still haven't given up on you either!" she retorted.

Looking around, her other classmates were all bent over catching their breath, all except four; Sakarazaki Setsuna, Tatsumiya Mana, Nagase Kaede, and Ku Fei. There was nothing strange about this in and of itself, but these four did manage to finish relatively close to Asuna, and were displaying no signs of fatigue whatsoever. Maybe she had just underestimated the humans from the old world? Regardless she made a mental note of these students.

"Impressive De Gozaru." Kaede said. "I didn't think there would be anyone who could best Misora donno so easily."

"That speed is master class level aru." Ku Fei agreed.

The rest of the events were not nearly as close. Setsuna, Kaede, Mana, and Ku all did exceptionally well in high jump, pole vault, and 100 meter hurdle. They were clearly the physically strongest in the class. Mero still outperformed them all.

"Incredible aru. With training she could be a good rival ne." Ku exclaimed. "Hey do you wanna join the chinese martial arts club?" She asked running up to the white haired girl.

"No." She answered instantly.

"Ha ha, I got rejected huh? Too bad arune." The exchange did not go unnoticed by the rest of the class.

"Hey is it just me, or is that girl kind of cool?" Kugumiya Madoka wondered aloud.

"I know right?" Kakizaki Misa agreed. "A mysterious white haired transfer student from a far off country who's also beautiful and athletic? It's like something out of a fairytale."

"Good grief." Asakura sighed. "Her second day here and she's already got a fan club?"

After class when the students retreated into the locker room, she continued to be the center of attention.

"Who would've thought, not only is she super cute and smart, our Mero-chan's a superstar on the field too!" Yuna exclaimed.

"Better watch out Mero-chan," Kakizaki warned. "If you're not careful some of the girls here might just fall for you."

"I am always careful." She replied. All her classmates roared with laughter.

"Although, there's something bothering me." Kugimiya said, when the laughing died down.

"What do you mean?" Yuna asked.

"Well her movements were super awesome, but something felt kinda . . . off."

"Yeah, almost like she didn't have . . . "

"Is something wrong?" Mero asked before taking off her gym shirt.

"Not really, we were just- WHOA WHAT THE-"

"What is it?" Mero asked innocently.

"What do you mean 'what?' Why the heck aren't you wearing a bra?!" Yuna demanded.

Sure enough, once the the shirt was removed her bare breasts sprang into view, unsupported and unobstructed.

"D-Don't tell me, you did all that exercise braless?" Asuna said in shocked horror.

"I knew she was looking a bit too bouncy back there!" Makie said.

"A bra?" The new girl seemed genuinely confused.

"Hey your not joking around are you?" Yuna grabbed her firmly by the shoulders and looked directly into her eyes. "Are you saying you've seriously been running around all this time without a bra?"

"I don't understand. What is a 'bra' and why is it so important that I have one?"

"Gah!" Yuna threw up her hands in frustration. "A bra, a brassiere! Like this!" She pulled up her shirt revealing her own overstuffed bra.

"I see, so this is called a bra?" She said inspecting the device curiously.

"No, no, this is just too weird. How can you not know what a bra is?" Around her, the other girls echoed the statement.

"Is that really so strange?"

"Yes! definitely! See how everyone else is wearing one?" She waved toward the half naked girls around them. "As soon as school is over were running out to go buy you some bras!"

"Is that really necessary? I don't really have any desire to go shopping with you."

"No objections! A growing teenage girl absolutely MUST have a bra!"

Mero sighed. It was clear that her classmates were not going to let the subject drop, no matter how pointless and trivial it seemed.

"Very well."

"Good. Let's invite these guys too, we'll make a date out of it." She blushed and rubbed her chest. "I've actually been meaning to get some new bra's too. My breasts have been growing a lot lately, and they're starting to get in the way during basketball.

"So um, why am I here exactly?" Asuna asked as she walked through Mahora's shopping district.

"Come on Asuna, don't say that. We've gotta help our classmate in need right?" Yuna said.

"Yeah!" Makie said. "It'll be fun!"

The group of girls walked into the lingerie shop and were immediately surrounded by rows and rows of colorful fabric.

"Okay, first things first," Yuna said. "Do you know your cup size?"

". . . I presume you are not referring to drinking cups?" Mero said after a moment. Yuna sighed.

"Honestly, I'm not even surprised anymore. Okay listen up, bra sizes are measured in cups. To get your size first we need to measure your full bust and under bust. Here Asuna will demonstrate."

"Like hell I will!" She cried smacking the other girl in the back of the head.

Her classmates explained that the full bust measurement refers to the diameter of the fullest part of the chest, while the under bust is the diameter of the abdomen under the breasts, and that the difference between the two measurements determines one's cup size.

"Okay, let's get you measured then!" Makie said shoving Mero into the changing area. Yuna joined them after grabbing a measuring tape from the store clerk.

"Alright, get undressed."

"Yes." She said before stepping out of her shoes and stripping off her uniform, revealing that she wasn't wearing panties either.

"What the hell!" Asuna exclaimed. "You don't wear panties either?!"

"Panties? Is that another under garment?" Yuna sighed and slapped her forehead.

"It's- you know what never mind. One problem at a time. Hold out your arms."

She did as she was told, and stood feet apart, arms spread and completely naked before her peers.

"W-Wow. You're really not shy are you?" Asuna noticed.

"Her complete lack of embarrassment is making me embarrassed." Makie said blushing.

"Yeah," Yuna agreed. "H-Here, start measuring." She said handing Makie the tape measure.

"Huh. W-Why me?"

"It's no big deal right? we're all girls here. Just do it."

"You should do it Yuna, you're roommates right?"

"Ugh, fine! I'll do it you big baby.

Mero maintained the same stoic expression as Yuna wrapped the measuring tape around her chest. Then she pulled the ends tight to read the measurement, squeezing the plastic against the tips of her breasts.

"Ah. . ." The sensation produced a soft moan from Mero. She began to tremble. It wasn't painful or even unpleasant, but it still created a powerful shock that penetrated deep into her body.

As I thought, this body is too sensitive!

"80 Centimeters." Yuna said before releasing her. "Okay, now we just have to pick out a bra."

"And underwear too!" Asuna reminded them.

"Yeah, what kind of styles do you like Mero-chan?" Makie said excitedly.

"It does not matter. I have no preference for style."

"Heh, heh, just leave it to us then! We'll make sure to pick something cute!"

A few minutes later, after Asuna harshly rejected the notion of sexy lingerie for the girl's first pair of underwear, they helped her try on a simple pale blue bra and panties set. She rubbed her breasts, observing how they fit into the strange device.

"Interesting. It's holding them up and supports them when I move."

"Now do you understand why you need a bra?" Yuna asked.

"Yes. It's quite clever."

"How does it feel? It's not too tight is it?" Asuna asked.

"No, it's soft and comfortable."

"Take a look at yourself, what do you think?" Makie said turning her to the mirror. She paused for a moment staring at her reflection. The light blue complemented her pale skin nicely. The brassiere pushed up her modest breasts and created a small valley. An elegant streamlined shape.

"The design is acceptable."

"Geez, Mero-chan. You always say the weirdest things. At times like these you should just say it's cute."

"It's, c-cute"

"Heh, heh, looks like we've got a winner."

After they made their purchases and left the store, Mero was expecting to return to the dorm immediately, but Makie suggested they visit a new desert cafe that had recently opened in the area.

"This place is great," she insisted. "It's not too popular yet, but all their cakes are awesome! Trust me you guys will love it!"

It didn't seem like she had much choice, so she reluctantly followed the group. Soon they were all siting around a table outside of the cafe. Mero looked at the cake in front of her. She didn't actually need to eat if she didn't want to. As long as her core had an adequate supply of mana it could keep her energized for centuries.

"Wow, Makie-chan you were right this is great!" Asuna said digging into her pastry.

"Yeah, it's so sweet and fluffy!" Yuna agreed.

They seemed to be enjoying it quite a lot. Could they really get so much joy from a simple blend of cream and sugar? She took a bite. Her taste buds lit up so suddenly and drastically she nearly jumped out of her chair. Her hands shot to her mouth, and she doubled over. She couldn't stop shaking.

"Hey are you okay?" Yuna asked putting a hand on her shoulder.

"What's wrong are you feeling sick?" Makie said.

"Delicious."

"Eh?"

"This cake is incredible." Her voice was deadly serious as she said it.

She cleaned her plate. She wasn't messy, she cut careful precise slices and gently placed them in her mouth, but she did so at nearly superhuman speed. Her companions just stared at her blankly.

"What is it?" She asked.

They all immediately burst out laughing

"Ha, ha, no matter how good it is, you don't have to eat it so fast." Yuna said her arms at her sides.

"She doesn't really look like the type, but I guess Mero-chan has a bit of a sweet tooth huh?" Said Makie.

Did she really? It was difficult for her to judge considering this was the first time she'd actually eaten anything, but the strong response from her taste buds made it hard to deny. She decided it might not be so bad to have such a sensitive body.

"You're such a weird girl," Yuna said. "But that's not bad at all."

"Yeah," Asuna said. "You'll fit right in with everyone else in 2-A."

"Is it really okay to be fooling around like this though, aren't the end of term exams coming up next week?" Makie asked.

"Guh! Don't remind me." Asuna slumped her shoulders.

"Don't worry about it!" Yuna said. "This is an escalator school anyway!"

"Actually, this might be bad for Negi." Asuna said. "He's only a probationary teacher right now, if his class comes in last in the exams again. . . ."

"Wow Asuna you really do like Negi-kun don't you? I thought you said you hated kids." Yuna said.

"Damnit why is everyone saying that?!" She shouted. "Look when it comes to people who try their best at everything, I don't hate them even if they're kids."

"It's true," Makie agreed. "Even though he's only 10 Negi-kun can be surprisingly adult-like at times."

". . ." Mero said nothing.

"Hey tomorrow's Sunday, so why don't we have a study party?" Yuna suggested.

"Yeah, let's do it!" Makie cried. "Mero-chan you're coming too right?"

Tomorrow was Sunday, for the first time since arriving at Mahora she would be free to explore the campus on her own. It was the perfect opportunity to complete her mission objective.

"No. Sorry, but I have plans tomorrow."

"That's too bad. Well then, we'll have to make do with just the three of us!"

"Aren't you two Baka rangers though?" Yuna pointed out.

"SHUT UP!" Makie and Asuna replied simultaneously.
