I do not own Infinite Stratos this is a fanfiction only.
Ichika and Chifuyu were both born to the Orimura family but as the head of the family their mother could not have then both remain as a part of the family if they were not going to ever activate and use the family bloodline. The Orimura family valued strength above all else and that included love. The twins were left to fend for themselves since before they could walk.
The two children were fortunate enough that they always seem to be placed together whether it be at the orphanage or a foster home. Chifuyu was educated in the ways of kendo and so since her twin brother was always with her so was he. The kendo dojo was run by the Shinono family they had two daughters. The eldest daughter who did not want to follow the family tradition and always was playing with electronics and computers.
By the time Ichika was ten years old and a good practitioner of the dojo style of kendo he was introduced to a little girl. He was told she was the future teacher of the dojo since the oldest daughter a girl by the name of Tabane decided to abandon the family tradition altogether.
It was during his fifteen birthday that Tabane finished her greatest invention ever. Having been studying what Japan had done in the area of outer space suits she developed something that would turn the world upside down. This would make her parents value her genius, or so she believed.
Ichika became good friends with Hoki and he was a great help in her instruction in the ways of kendo. He became something of a motivation and a secret crush all rolled into one. Tabane decided to use the best swordsman in the family dojo to prove her technology was amazing.
She hacked 58 military bases around the word and had them launch nuclear-tipped missiles at Japan. Ichika knew that he had to do something as he soon realized the oncoming danger because at that exact moment his family bloodline activated and he had a vision of what was about to happen and how to stop it.
With his eyes both turning from deep blue to a golden color he marched in the direction of a dry tree. He punched a stop on the tree and that opened the secret passage to an abandoned base. Inside he saw a black wetsuit and a red mass of armor. It looked like it was a samurai armor that had been taken off a display stand.
Ichika followed the vision and in an instant, he knew everything about the machine that he thought it was an armor. He took off his clothes and out on the wetsuit and touched the armor. It moved and instinctively it wrapped itself around his body. 'Shirakishi I wish we had a better chance to introduce each other, but right now our country is in danger. So please lend me your strength of this nation is doomed.'
The armor turned white almost like saying that she was honored by his decision to protect the innocent. In reality, she turned it white because she did not want her master to be easily identified if they somehow ended up being videotaped by a surveillance satellite. She even changes to look more like a European armor than what she initially looked like for this her first flight.
That was the night that the white Knight shot down every single nuclear missile and said missiles were gone from the world. In truth, Tabane wanted to reduce the number of nuclear weapons around Japan to make the world a lot safer for her little sister. What better could she hope for to test her greatest invention yet, the Infinite Stratos?
As soon as the Infinite Stratos was unveiled to the world Tabane's invention became the most troubling issue in the world and especially the United nations. The thing was more powerful than any conventional weapon or vehicle and it could be used for so many things it was determined that its use would be limited to a sport and Japan would be the one responsible to educate all future I.S. Pilots in how to operate their machines.
Chifuyu was not happy that her brother was the first pilot ever, and so she demanded on threat of a major beating that Tabane prepare a personal unit for her too. Tabane was many things but a coward she was not. She told Chifuyu that in return she and Ichika would work with her to perfect the I.S. so they could get it ready for first generation mass production and to make an appropriate first Academy curriculum.
Five years later and Chifuyu and Ichika were both entered into the world's first world competition, the Mondo Grosso. Chifuyu and Ichika would end up fighting the final match against each other and they being equally skilled they should have ended in a draw, but Ichika had one thing Chifuyu did not. He had mastered the ability of his eyes and with knowing what would happen he defeated his twin sister quite easily.
"Ichika it was not fair that you used your bloodline ability in our final match. " Chifuyu was not happy how easily she was defeated." Look, sis, it's a clear case of damned if you do or damned if you don't. You would never let me hear the end of it if I did not fight you at my best. So quit pouting and give your brother a hug for a well-deserved medal. "
Chifuyu knew that he was right of course, the one thing that still bugged her was why was he the only man that the Infinite Stratos actually accepted. Tabane herself did not know why she looked the specs on Ichika's personal I.S but so far the machine and even the core did not look anything different from the other machines she designed.
In truth that Byakushki or Shirakishi as Ichika called her actually accepted him because unlike all the other tests pilots before him, he actually treated her as a friend and not simply a piece of hardware being tested.
The next few years before the next Mondo Grosso were spent helping Tabane with the making of the proposed I. S. Academy. The first Mondo Grosso did not have many experienced pilots and so the competition for the twins was not that great. Things would be different for the second since now they had a proper training program.
They held the classes in an old military base so far, but with the help of the twins the designs for the actual Academy buildings were done rather quickly. Ichika was given the much-needed training in case he actually chose to be a teacher in the academy. His sister finally found one area where she was better than her brother and that area was book learning.
Ichika was told by Tabane that he was more than likely a more physical learner. He did pick learning rather quickly when it was tied to some actual physical examples and exercises. The Second Mondo Grosso was also expected for either of the twins to win. The world did not like the idea of Japan winning two times back to back.
"Chifuyu what is the meaning of this? What do you mean you will not participate in the Mondo Grosso? Sister mind telling me why are you leaving me alone out there?" Chifuyu said that she did not want to steal the chance of him winning a second gold medal in a row. In reality, she did not want to participate because she still remembered how embarrassing her defeat was.
Ichika was getting ready to fight in the semifinals when he received a message telling him that an unknown group of people had his sister hostage. If he did not want his sister to die he better loses the semifinals or they would kill his sister. The first impulse was to contact Tabane and tell her what he was told in the message.
Just as he was ready to call Tabane he had a vision of who the group was. It was the defeated members of the Russian team. This made his furious as the semifinals had him fight the very last pilot for the Russian team. He knew what he needed to do thanks to his vision. He went to the German team and told them what was happening.
The team leader was beyond angry at hearing what the Russians were trying to do. "I can't provide aid without some sort of compensation. If you promise to teach our elite unit for a minimum of three years. I promise to do my best to rescue your sister and you can get your revenge on the team of cowards on your match."
Ichika knew he had no other alternative. He agreed to the deal and told her everything that he knew about the possible location of the people holding his sister hostage. The German team leader told him to stall for time and when his sister was safe they would be some fireworks fired to tell him to stop holding back.
The match was something the German expected to win rather easily as they held the sister of their opposition hostage. The match was largely Ichika evading everything the opponent tried to do until he saw the bright colors of some fireworks overhead.
That was when he began beating the living daylights out of the foolish opponent. She had no idea what he was doing. They had his sister and threaten to kill her if he tried to win. Did she begin to think that maybe victory was more important that his twin's life? "You try this again in the next Mondo Grosso and I promise you there will be no power in heaven or hell that will prevent me from ending the lives of you and your entire team. You have been warned."
The Russian team was deemed to have acted against the code of conduct for such a world sporting event and thus they were banned from participating for the next four competitions. This, however, did mean that if they wanted to participate they had to find new pilots for the team.
Ichika was good to his word and indeed went and taught the elite unit like he promised. For three years he taught this unit everything he knew about piloting an Infinite Stratos. One student was, in particular, extra enthusiastic about learning from the two times Mondo Grosso champion. Her name was Laura Bodwig and she was considered once the very best soldier.
The reason for her enthusiasm was that she had become the worst IS pilot in the entire unit. Thanks to Ichika's teachings that slowly began to change and as he finished teaching the last year Laura had risen to be the very best once again. Some of her fellow pilots used to tease her that maybe she paid so close attention to their teacher was because she was secretly in love with him.
At long last, he was free from his obligation to the German IS unit and could return to his homeland and his sister. She just became the director of the Academy and if the letters were any indication the school was in major need of some good old-fashioned military discipline and thanks to the last three years he was an expert on the subject.
As he landed and drove to the Academy he could be hearing Shirakishi complain once again. 'I still say the plane and car were unnecessary and slowed us down too much. I could have been there and back at least half a dozen times by the same amount of time.' Ichika smiled as he touched his gauntlet.
'I know, but we don't know what to expect. I don't want to come across as a show off the very first day I arrive. You know as well as I do that the first impression is very important when starting to teach in a new place. ' Shirakishi was laughing as she heard him.' Remind me again who was it that beat not one but thirteen instructors in a single match to prove that he was worthy to teach their elite unit? '
Ichika laughed too as he almost forgot about it.' Well since you decided to bring it up I really only did it to impress that Captain, what was her name Oliva Strum I believe. I can't deny I really am attracted to a nice woman that pays so much attention to her figure, and Olivia had a very nice rack. '
That made Shirakishi become quite for two reasons. She regretted mentioning the incident because she made him remember the pink haired bimbo, and the other was the only reason said bimbo did not actually date him was because she was already married. It or course did not stop Ichika from flirting shamelessly every chance he got.
As he exited the vehicle he saw the welcoming party. He immediately recognized his twin sister and when she was at arms reach gave her a hug. There was a young woman next to her and she seemed to be still hiding behind a wall. Chifuyu decided that it was not something her brother's assistant professor should be doing, regardless how bashful and intimidated she felt in meeting her brother.
"Maya if you can't even greet the professor you are going to work with, I guess I will have to introduce him to someone else and you will have to teach the class alone. Is that what you want? " Maya rushed out of her hiding place and she was in such a hurry to introduce herself she tripped and fell right on top of Ichika who by the way he fell had his hands on her breast.
'Oh this is just great, I finally got rid of one bimbo and here comes another that by the looks of it will have Ichika go gaga over her figure. Dear God all mighty those tits are huge. ' Shirakishi was thinking as Ichika helped her stand up. "I am sorry, it's just that he won the Mondo Grosso two times in a row and I don't want to make a bad first impression."
"More likely you were trying to be my future sister in law. I wouldn't mind let me tell you. But trying to sleep with the guy when you just met him out in the open? I never figured you to be so caring about how you went after a guy. " this made the poor green haired woman blush three shades of red.
" This lovely young woman is your assistant professor she is Maya Yamada. As for your first duty as a professor, I think we should check how your personal unit is and finish registering you into the system. Then I plan to go over the year program and see if you have any questions. "
Ichika bowed down to Maya and he kissed her hand and smiled at her." It is a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Yamada, I am sure we will have a wonderful time working together. " even Chifuyu didn't expect her brother to treat his assistant professor this way and it made her feel less worried.
His personal unit was in perfect condition. He finished the paperwork and found the schedule of the material taught to be too relaxed so he decided to change it a bit. "Now if Maya will show you were your sleeping quarters are and where the faculty supplies and restrooms are located. I think you are ready to start teaching tomorrow. Be most welcome Professor Orimura." Ichika smiled at his sister. "Glad to be here, and thank you Director Orimura. I will not let you down."
Maya wondered why the two were being so formal with each other." Chifuyu and I value maintaining our personal and professional lives separate so in her role as director and mine as a new professor we have to be formal with each other. It is just the way we are Maya, there is nothing to worry about. "
If Shirakishi was angry before now she was speechless with rage. It turns out the new big breasted bimbo in Ichika's life was not only going to be working with him all the time, no it was much worse than that. She was going to be his new roommate. The poor IS AI was just asking one question over and over again. 'Why did this have to happen to me?'
