As you read from the summary, this is a story about Hibiki and Hikari and if they weren't winged by Seo but someone much more reliable.

Jonathan Hale, or John as he preferred, ran with his jacket pulled over his head, towards his small apartment between the northern and Southern parts of the city.
For most of the day it had been raining, although not much more than a shower.
Based on this he had planned to make it home, on the train, with little more than a few sparse wet patches.
Almost as soon as he left the construction site everything went to hell.
The 'heavens' opened up and began dumping copious amounts of water upon the capital, as well as bolts of lightning.
It was one such bolt of lightning that had apparently broken a section of the tracks, forcing John to take the long and wet way home.
By now he was soaked through to his underwear, making the whole ordeal more unpleasant.
Looking around he spied a massive crowd ahead, probably a car crash or something.
Seeing a dark alley and deducing it was probably the only way to get past the crowd, he took it.
Ever since he had come to Japan and the Capital, 4 years ago, things had gone downhill for John.
His family had moved away from America because MBI had purchased his Father's company and moved it to the capital.
At first things seemed better, his Father was doing better than before, and his mother had gotten over the death of her mother.
John had even gotten a part-time job at Nagasaki Building Co, per his Father's advice.
But things didn't last.
11 months before the present day there had been an accident.
A terrible accident.
Flashback:
It was a dark and rainy night.
Lightning and thunder battled for supremacy of the night sky.
The Hale family were returning from his birthday party at one of the best restraints downtown, courtesy of David Hale, the family's patriarch, and his new bonus.
"So what did you thick of dinner?, not too shabby I hope", said Maria Hale, with a hint of sarcasm in her voice.
John smirked, "Dunno, I think it was a little too low brow for my tastes".
Both parents laughed.
"I think you're right, they didn't even give us our complementary Limo" smiled his father.
After a few moments of laughter John managed to pull himself together, "seriously though, tonight was…".
Suddenly the world was turned upside down, as a speeding Mitsubishi filled the front-view mirror and everything was dark
Flashback end
That was the night his parents died.
John himself had barely gotten away with a now scarred shoulder.
His parents had left a generous will, approximately half a million American dollars.
But due to a failed lawsuit on the drunk driver he was left with only a tenth of that.
This forced John to keep his job at the construction job.
The rest of his time was occupied by drinking, occasional smoking and a few of his other hobbies.
Each time the sky opened up like tonight he was reminded of this.
Returning to the present he was reminded of this.
Back to the present John was half way through the alleyway when he heard a woman yelling, "where the hell is he Hibiki?".
Looking up ahead he saw two women, twins, trying to claim shelter under a fire escape.
Strangely enough there were dressed in S&M gear, the one that was yelling wearing a dark Blue suit and the other wearing a pink one.
The one in pink replied sullenly, "I don't know Hikari!, we'll just have to find somewhere to stay for the night".
The other one groaned, "But we forgot our MBI cards, Hibiki!".
Glancing between them and the end of the alley way John sighed, he couldn't leave them in the downpour like this!.
On the other hand if he approached them it would seem suspicious.
Deciding he should at least offer he approached them.
"Hey I know this seems really weird but I accidently overheard you and if you'd like I can offer you some money to maybe rent a hotel room for a night".
Both turned and looked at him with flushed faces, as if he were proposing they dance the tango in main street, "Yeah, and If we accept the money we have to go behind that dumpster with you?, well screw you!".
John put up both hands to defend himself, "No no no!, look I don't want, any trouble, I was just offering".
Continuing on his way he sighed, "Well see you".
When he heard a shiver he glanced over his shoulder, they were shivering cursing some guy called Seo.
Cursing he turned around, "Look, just take the money and I'll be gone!, I'mm probably going to Piss it off somewhere anyway".
The glanced at him as if assessing him, "well…".

After several minutes John had managed to grab a couple of trench coats and they were sitting at a takeout joint in the northern part of the city.
As he looked out the window he occasionally caught them glancing at him.
From what he had seen so far the two looked almost the same except the angrier one seemed to have much larger breasts than the one in pink, who was calmer one, possibly the brains of the pair.
In general it seemed as if the two were in a perpetual bad mood.
He was shook out of his musings as the angry one asked him something, "So what's the deal?, why'd you help us if you didn't want some?".
Looking back to her, "lets see…".
He put his pointer finger to his chin as if in thought, "dunno, maybe because I need a break from this dreary life or maybe I'm just that kind hearted".
Looking her in the eyes he spoke in a serious and solemn voice, "O r maybe I think something good should come out of a night like this".
Both girls stopped eating and looked at him with surprised looks on their faces.
Giving them a weak smile, "It was spent keeping you two warm then drinking myself into the ground".
Both went back to their eating as John went back to looking out the window, he didn't notice that they didn't take their eyes off him.

Looking up at his little apartment building he sighed.
"Well girls looks like this is my stop".
Looking back at them he gave them a small smile, "you should have enough to find a half-way decent motel of some sort for the night".
They both nodded, still with strange looks on their faces.
Giving them a short wave he continued, "See you".
After a few steps it seemed as if he wasn't moving forward.
After a few moments he tried again, except faster.
Still he wasn't moving.
"Huh" he said.
Looking behind him he saw them both holding on to the back of his shirt.
"Did you need something else?".
Both looked up at him with blushed faces, "Don't leave…", said the pink suited one.
He raised an eyebrow, "Huh?".
"I'm Hikari" said the Blue suited one.
"And I'm Hibiki" said the Pink suited one.
Then both pulled themselves closer, "Please be our Ashikabi now and forever!".
Then they unexpectedly pulled themselves closer, both kissing him at the same time.
