The Final Sekirei

Enjoy the first chapter of 'the final Sekirei'

I got this idea from the thought that Minaka enjoys playing with people's emotions, so what would happen if there were actually two Sekirei left when Homura was winged?

Enjoy the end product!

Yuki ran along the road, his head thumping with pain in time with his heart. His wide eyes flashed around in search for his enemy. His stomach churned from the scene he had just witnessed. Nobody should ever have to go through that...

Yuki stared around the corner as the tall girl stood in front of her male friend. Before them was a pair of black-clad bikie-looking people. One had a feminine body, but Yuki couldn't tell whether it was a girl without seeing her face. She cocked her head at the tall girl, "Who do we have here? May I ask?"

The tall girl shook slightly, her friend grabbed her hand, "Come on, Karrin, we have to get out of here"

The girl closed her eyes, "I'm sorry, Mayu, but, I know this woman, we'll never escape her"

The woman took off her helmet and revealed her beautiful, unblemished face, "So it seems" he golden hair flowed from the neck of her leathers, "And yet, I don't recognise you, how about that? I'll start, I'm number 54, Finnia, at your service" she bowed deeply, "Your turn"

The tall girl clutched her friend's hand, "I…I'm…I'm number 102, Karrin"

Her ashikabi looked at her and she took an offensive stance, his eyes widened, "Karrin!"

Yuki's stomach revolted and he vomited a mixture of bile, his most recent meal and blood. When he looked back up, he was almost forced to vomit again, as both the sekirei girl and her ashikabi were disembowelled within seconds of each other by number 54. She turned her head, "who are you?"

Yuki ran. Fast…

Now he was sprinting at his fastest power-free pace, trying to keep a low profile and stop her from chasing him. The woman ran along the top of the wall beside him.

"weeeellllll"

He stopped, "No…"

She jumped in front of him, "I can't just let a witness live, please understand that"

She flung her hand at him, much in the same way as she did to the poor sekirei girl from earlier, the one whose stomach she tore out. Yuki barely had time to react, pulling out his concealed sword and stopping her hand from hitting him. It did, however, fling him two houses down the road. His head smacked into the hardwood wall of a huge house. The woman's ashikabi's motorcycle pulled up on the corner. They both approached Yuki's unconscious form. Finnia strode up to him and lifted her hand. She stuck him in the chest with a flat palm, "You piss me off, where the hell did that thing come from?"

Yuki slammed through the wall, along with three layers of internal walls and eventually into a large tree in the back yard. His body went through a living room where a tall blonde woman, a small girl and a young man were sitting and talking. The little girl immediately screamed and ran to Yuki's side. The young man and woman, by all appearances a couple, stood a stared at Finnia.

"Welcome" said a beautiful, but slightly fear-inspiring, voice behind Finnia, "To Maitson Izumo."

Finnia turned and Miya cracked her sheathed blade across her head. She immediately fell to the ground, unconscious. Her ashikabi ran to her side and looked up at Miya, who had turned away from him, "I don't appreciate violence in my home, young man, leave immediately."

That was a Prologue, by the way!

Here's the real story:

Minato Sahashi smiled at Yuki, who'd just awoken on the couch. He could feel every injury he had sustained, but the people seemed not to have taken off his clothes. He could feel the tight bandages covering his chest and back, compressing the flesh. He felt like his organs were on fire. He coughed and immediately knew what was happening. He grabbed the window ledge behind him and, just as he reached it, emptied his stomach contents outside. The contents were only bile and blood, being that he already lost what food content he had earlier.

"Art thou alright" asked the tall blonde woman called Tsukiumi, "Thine vomit looked red from here"

Yuki didn't have the strength to answer. He slipped into unconsciousness.

When Yuki woke, everybody from the living room was in the room, along with a third young woman was standing around him. Yuki, just by simply looking at them, knew that they were worried about him. A tall, brown haired girl leant over him, her huge chest hovering barely inches from his face.

"Are you alright?" she said, "I was worried"

The blonde woman shook her head, "Musubi, thine breasts are floating above his head, you may want to move before you make his nose bleed"

Yuki coughed and tasted his blood, "Too late" he smiled weakly as the blood trickled down his lip.

The young man grinned, his longish black hair falling over his kind eyes, "hey, how are you feeling?"

Yuki sat up slowly, feeling every wound stretch and sting, "I'll live, I think"

The young man held his hand out in front of Yuki's bloody face, "I'm Minato Sahashi, pleased to meet you"

Yuki grasped Minato's hand, "I'm nu… ahem, Yuki"

The brown haired girl cocked her head, "Yuki? No last name?"

Yuki shook his head, "I forgot it a while ago…"

The fair haired young woman crouched in front of Yuki, "Well then, Yuki, as it is only good manners, I am Tsukiumi"

The slightly daft brown haired girl smiled, "I'm Musubi"

The little girl walked up and tugged on Yuki's pant leg, "My name is Kusano, but please call me Ku" her wide, pleading eyes melted Yuki's heart immediately.

"Sure, Ku-san"

Kusano shook her head violently, "No, just Ku, everyone here is my family, so you are too"

Yuki smiled kindly, "alright, Ku-chan"

Miya walked into the room carrying a tray of tea, her polite and beautiful manner instantly raised the spirit of the room, not that it needed it. She nodded to Minato, "Hey, have you seen Matsu or Kagari recently, Minato?"

"No, Kagari's busy, Miya, you know that"

She smiled calmly, "Alright, so you're awake"

Yuki stared at the woman who had instantly reminded him of a dear friend of his who he'd never had. He nodded, "Yes"

She smiled, "My name's Miya, what's yours?"

Yuki inhaled, "Uh, Yu…Yuki"

Miya smiled, "Nice to meet you, Yuki. Why are you wearing those bandages, by the way?"

Yuki looked down at his torso, where a very tight length of bandaging was wound. It was actually there because of a unique problem with his body, but he said, "An injury I had a few months ago"

Miya smiled, "Oh, alright. Do you plan to stay here for a while, Yuki?"

Yuki exhaled and concentrated on the slight feeling of warmth he had had since he'd seen the people in the room,"I hope to"

After a while, Yuki got up. His shorts were torn to pieces, as was his t-shirt, but his underwear and bandages were almost completely unharmed, but for a large blood stain on the front of the bandages where he had vomited on himself. He could feel his stomach churning again and quickly ran outside. He emptied its contents near the back fence, this time it was almost completely red, with more than half of it being blood. Yuki knew that he didn't have long left to live, and Minaka was out in space. Yuki knew that he would be long dead by the time that bastard even thought about re-entering the atmosphere. He shook and stood up. Tsukiumi rushed to his side.

"Yuki, are you alright? Your, uh, vomit seemed to consist of blood"

Yuki nodded, "I'll be fine" *cough cough* "Tsukiumi"

Of course he was lying.

A few days later he was back up to speed, or as close as he was ever going to be, and accompanied Kazehana and Minato to run an errand for Miya. He'd reached deep into his bank account a few days earlier and paid a month's rent with what he had, knowing full well that he probably wouldn't make it that long. He could already feel his organs filling with blood from his internal injuries. Nevertheless, he still walked with a smile, because for the first time in his life, he had a true friend to speak to. Minato and Kazehana turned to Yuki, whose pace a slowed somewhat. Yuki sped up to keep pace when all three heard a rustle from the path behind them, along with the sound of blades scratching along the ground.

All three turned as Benitsuba and Haihane turned the corner. The flat chested girl grinned, "Well, what a coincidence, Minato. I was hoping that I'd find you. Where is 88, Sahashi?"

Minato didn't say anything and Kazehana put her hands by her side. Yuki put one hand behind his back. Haihane smiled and lunged at Kazehana, "Surely you don't believe you can take me on when I'm full able-bodied!"

He slashed at her, but as she blocked him with the wind, his left hand flew at Minato, who was now unprotected. Steel crashed against steel. Sparks flew in every direction as Yuki held back Haihane's weapon with his own. A small wakizashi with a well-worn blade, obviously well used.

Yuki pushed Haihane's arm away and stood in front of Minato brandishing his blade. Minato grabbed Yuki's arm, "Yuki, don't fight, you aren't in any shape for this. And you are no match for this guy"

Yuki felt himself start to deteriorate, his body start to disobey him. He felt his power run wild and he heard Minato's stifled cry of pain as his hand was slashed by an invisible blade.

"Sorry, Minato. But you have no idea who these guys are"

Minato's eyes widened, "What do you mean by that?"

Yuki lowered his head, "No time, if you want to survive"

Benitsuba cocked her head, "What do you mean he doesn't know us, kid? Who are you?"

"My name is Yuki"

"And mine is Benitsuba, that's not what I meant, idiot. That's Minato Sahashi, the Northern Ashikabi. He probably knows us better than anyone outside of the Discipline Squad"

Yuki looked sideways at Minato, "Ouch"

He lowered his wakizashi and put his right hand to his left hip. Yuki smiled, "Well, I'm going to die any day now anyway"

Minato shot a look at him then ran to Kazehana's side. Yuki closed his eyes. A slender black katana appeared on his hip and he drew it, "As is the tradition"

Benitsuba cocked her head, "What the fuck did you just do?"

"I'm number 19, Yuki. Pleased to meet you"

She grinned, "Well, how about that. I'm number 104, Benitsuba, and I'm gonna enjoy watching your Ashikabi's face when I kill you."

Yuki looked confused as Benitsuba ran towards him.

"Extreme"

Yuki's eyes widened.

"QUAKE!"

Bang.

Yuki slammed into the wall behind Minato, every joint in his body cracking in time with the brick work. Benitsuba walked up to him, "You weren't even worth that attack, damn it"

Yuki got up on one knee and held his katana horizontal to the ground, "No way am I going to lose to that" he coughed and a torrent of blood poured from his mouth. "Blade Tempest" he whispered, probably only because he had no voice left. His body disappeared and reappeared a metre behind Benitsuba. Both her wrists had rings of blood appearing slowly on them. Yuki had simply brushed their surface, and yet he had drawn blood. Benitsuba roared and swung her fist straight at Yuki, who took the hit head on. He didn't fair too well, as his body simply collapsed. His eyes glazed over and the small area of pink showing above the bandages on his back disappeared. Sekirei number 19, Yuki, ceased functioning.

Yuki felt himself losing his life force, he knew he had lost to her, but felt no emotions. He died defending a human. He lost all feeling in his limbs and after a few seconds could no longer feel the pain from the tight bandages over his chest. He felt a hand touch his shoulder, but he couldn't tell whether it was a punch or a reassuring grip. He couldn't tell who it was, but he could feel a little more of his body when the hand hit him. He felt warmth spread over his limbs, but it was gone almost as soon as it registered. Yuki heard a faint voice call his name. after that, he remembered nothing.

Minato's eyes filled with tears as he gripped his dead friend's shoulder, "Yuki!" he screamed. Minato felt Yuki's warm blood flow over his hand and his head hung. He felt a hand take his weakly. Minato looked up and saw a sight he never thought he would ever see. Yuki's dark purple eyes looking back with a smile in them, a weak one, but a smile nonetheless. Yuki saw Minato's face and he managed a smile. He collapsed again. But this time, Minato caught him, his hand landing on the tightly wrapped bandages on Yuki's chest. Yuki's soft chest.

Minato inhaled sharply and Yuki's eyes flew open, at the same time as his fist slammed into Minato's stomach. Yuki caught himself.

"Sorry, Minato. Reflex" he looked up at Benitsuba and smiled, "Ready for round two? Bitch"

Benitsuba glared at him, with a mix of hatred and disbelief, "How are you…"

Yuki nodded, "I can see how this comes up"

Benitsuba backpedalled, "How are you still alive?"

Yuki smiled, "A while ago, me an' a friend of mine were sparring. Real weapons. An' this friend of mina managed to stab me in my shoulder. I got 'im at the same time"

Minato cocked his head, "Yuki?"

"My blade dug deep into his core, he knew he couldn't survive this, so he released all o' his energy into me through my blade"

Benitsuba crouched next to Haihane, who jumped beside her. Kazehana appeared beside Minato.

"Of course, I've been speaking from the wrong point of view. Surely you recognise my mannerism, Bitchsuba"

Benitsuba curled her hands into fists and lunged at Yuki, "Extreme Quake!"

Yuki ducked under her swing.

"Well, Bitchsubasa, do ya know me"

Benitsuba looked down at the boy crouching below her and smiled, "No, nor will I"

Haihane's scissor hand things punched straight through Yuki's chest.

Xenovi knew the feeling. The utter helplessness that one feels when stuck inside another. Xenovi closed eyes that didn't belong to him and felt the four blades pierce flesh that was someone else's and knew he had to do something. He grabbed the first blade he could and tore it from Haihane's hand. He made sure to transform the blade so that it passed through Yuki's body without damaging it. He held Haihane's blade by his side as a hilt and guard formed on its end. He tapped each of the remaining three blades on their tips, transforming them into blunt and useless lumps of steel barely an inch long on Haihane's hand.

What a cliffhanger!

Don't you just hate when a person cuts out in the middle of a fight? ^_^
