More minutes have pass on, Mugino tried to explain the game of Tag to Accelerator and Sogiita. However, Accelerator wasn't even listening because he's way to busy crushing Kakine's face. Minutes turned to hour, Mugino facepalm herself.

"Oh whatever. You'll learn as we play it..."

"She gave up." Misaka whispered while staring at the two of them.

"Tag is a playground game that involves one or more players chasing other players in an attempt to "tag" or touch them, usually with their hands. There are many variations; most forms have no teams, scores, or equipment. Usually when a person is tagged, the tagger says, "Tag, you're it".

A group of players (two or more) decide who is going to be "it", often using a counting-out game such as eeny, meeny, miny, moe. The player selected to be "it" then chases the others, attempting to get close enough to "tag" one of them (touching them with a hand) while the others try to escape. A tag makes the tagged player "it" - in some variations, the previous "it" is no longer "it" and the game can continue indefinitely while in others, both players remain "it" and the game ends when all players have become "it"

There are many variants which modify the rules for team play, or place restrictions on tagged players' behavior. A simple variation makes tag an elimination game, so those tagged drop out of play. Some variants have a rule preventing a player from tagging the person who has just tagged them (known as "no tags-back", "no returns", or "can't tag your master").

Players may be safe from being tagged under certain circumstances: if they are within a pre-determined area, off the ground, or when touching a particular structure. Traditional variants are Wood tag, Iron tag, and Stone tag, when a player is safe when touching the named material. This safe zone has been called a "gool" or "Dell", probably a corruption of "goal"."

This sudden burst of explanation made both Mugino and Misaka sweat drop. The three, on the other hand, are staring at the laptop, finding more information about this game.
