"Please, tell me you're joking." I requested nervously as I took my over armor off and put it in the armory, while on a phone call through my bluetooth earpiece.
"What's the big deal? It's not like I'm asking you to take over the world, or anything. I just wanna help." Matsu said to me as I walked back into my art studio and hung up. She was there, sure enough, standing and doing a cute little waiting dance for me. "So, what do I do?" she asked me.
"I uh..." I pondered as I looked around and found that I had nothing to do this with. "I have a camera in my room somewhere, in a silver box with shiny handels. I have all of my other multimedia stuff around here too, check in the black trunk over there." I ordered.
We began to look around, and then we found all of my multimedia stuff, my cameras and my green screen and my stands for my camera, et cetera. Over the span of a half an hour, we got the other two women in my house together after their shopping for Minato's party, and we set up some good shop in the studio. "Okay, that makes all of them. I'm going to need your help to advertise my business, and help me make some money for us." I announced to them. "We'll have to do this modeling quickly, so we can set up stuff for Minato's party tonight."
"Okay." Akitsu submitted.
"Don't make me look like too much of a hooker, or I'll be pissed." Midasu sleazed with a smile/sneer on her face.
"Alrighty." Matsu agreed as she got in her underwear, right then and there.
My nose started to bleed and I averted my eyes to Akitsu, in order to help cool me down. "Um...?" I started to whimper and complain to her.
She did little more than close her eyes and get in some underwear too, and Midasu followed suit. 'Is this some kind of titty committee or something? I think I'm going to die right now!' I whimpered in my mind. 'Now I can guess who Minato feels around women.' I finished as I picked up a camera, and made my speakers play the Krewella song: Come and get it (Razihel remix). That alone made the camera shots and the work so much more lively. Ever posture that they took, ever pose that they made as I took shots from my camera and videos in front of the green screen. The music was like fuel, and I was on one hell of a drive; fast and furious, I took all that I needed and all movement was in synch with the fast paced music, the beats in my steps and the baseline as my excitement. As minutes passed, I got all of my work done, and I enjoyed it. I smiled to them, sweating and holding my camera. "Well, that's really all I need. I can edit all of this business overnight." I announced with medium heavy breaths between every few words.
"You, just, like, danced all over the place. That was just..." Matsu sputtered in awe.
I chuckled and closed my eyes. "I'm a big music fan." I justified for my rather unexplainable performance.
"I'd say." she giggled as they all began to put their normal sekirei clothes back on. "You made this all go by within, like, an hour."
"Well, I try." I kept scoffing out before I took out my phone and checked the time. "Ugh, it's almost 4, Minato will be here any second. I'm gonna get armored and run a small errand." I let them know as I walked out of the studio and began to walk in rhythym to the song.
'Think about the guy. You gotta at least make sure that he's alright. Hopefully that vile woman, "Haihane" won't attempt anything particularly stupid while I'm out. I don't have enough of the firepower to-' I began to think to myself while walking, until I recieved a phone call. The phone rang as Immigrant Song. It was Minato. I answered my phone. "Minato, hey. What's up?" I greeted.
"Nathan, I'm going to be a little late to the party." he admitted in a rather humorous and pathetic way.
"What for? Is it anything that I could help with?" I asked him concernedly. "Knowing you, it usually is."
"Well, you'll kinda think I'm crazy." he complained. "But can I ask for you to help me?"
'If only he knew the kind of shit I've been in lately.' I thought to myself obnoxiously. "Dude, just tell me, man." I demanded calmly.
I heard him take deep breaths as I put the phone on bluetooth and walked into my armory. "Okay, Nathan. This girl named Musubi landed on me from falling out of the sky and two black haired women in S&M gear appeared out of nowhere and chased us all over the place. I just took her to my apartment and I'm feeding her. Boy, she can eat, for a nice and rather cute girl in a gi and fightning gear... are you still there?" he whined and explained before asking if I was still there.
I was alarmed beyond any and all belief. Minato was going to be dragged into this stupid plan along with me, and all because that brown haired Sekirei that I saw that morning, and those idiots in sexy gear. I was furious, but I tried to keep calm. "Minato, listen to me very, very closely. Take that girl out to lunch, she'll probably be very hungry. I have you on my Life360 app, so I'll be able to find you. If you get into a life or death situation with those women who assaulted you two, indulge in any and all desires and kiss her. Understand?" I thoroughly instructed.
"Oh, uh, no problem. I'll see you soon." he affirmed as we both hung up.
"Sooner than you think." I said out loud as I put my Arcusius armor back on and took my weapons with me.
XXXXXXXXXXXX
"Master, is it right for us to watch this?" Midasu asked me through a network of communications through my helmet and an earpiece she wore.
"I'm positive, Midasu." I answered, standing over Minato and that woman from a rooftop. "We must be vigilant, yet not interfere. Is that clear?" I directed.
"Yes, master." Midasu agreed with me. "I won't let you down."
I smiled. "That's hot, coming from you, Midasu." I complimented as I noticed that I was not alone on this rooftop. I took out my Arc-Sabres and said, "You're quite the sneak, miss."
She was a young woman with pink hair and a black gi with the sekirei symbol on the back, and her eyes matched her hair. As it blew in the wind, I noticed how medium long it was, and how it flowed so well. She had light and sandy pink skin and fighter's gloves as well. Her hair was actually tied to a tail that was off to the side of her head, with white flowers in her hair. Her face was stern and rather calm for now, but I could tell that she'd be a beast and quite destructive once angered. She looked down at Minato and the woman, accompanying me in the act. " Relax, I'm not going to hurt anybody, Cable." she both assured and dubbed me.
"Did you just call me, Cable?" I asked her in confusion. "Cable is-"
"I know that you're a big fan of Marvel Comics, and that you prefer not to be too known by your name for now. You're skilled for a human, and your name is Nathan. 'Cable' fits both criteria." she clarified. "And from what I've studied of your movements, you're looking for sekireis to join up with you." she inferred.
I blinked in confusion. "It's a cause, yeah... I'm sorry, who are you?" I asked.
She looked at me and growled in irritation. "Benitsubasa...!" she grumbled as she blushed like a strawberry.
"Well, listen, I'm all for the idea of you being my sekirei, but can I at least ask you a favor?" I asked her. "Please don't try to kill me ever."
She looked at me and frowned. "You'll have to help me out before I have you as an Ashikabi." she ordered. " I need some way to vent my anger... I've been dealing with a lot of crap that I don't want to talk about and I wanna just forget about it." she challenged me.
"Master, we've got trouble." Midasu informed me. "A group of unknown sekirei are coming in for Minato and the girl, as well as the twin hunters."
I grunted. "Midasu, you keep your focus on the other Sekirei from-"
"Mikogami Hayato." Benitsubasa said. "The most powerful ashikabi of the west. He usually goes after any and all sekirei that he can. Cable, help me give them punishment, and we'll make way for something."
" 'Cable'?" Midasu asked.
"Don't ask, Midasu. Benitsubasa, I'm helping you out." I announced to both of them. "Let's get some good jam up in this bitch!" I cried out as I made my helmet play Can't Hold Us, by Macklemore.
That music made me somewhat pumped up, and I flew over to meet my enemy sekireis in battle. My rockets gave me a great boost in agility, and my Arc weapons made everything so much more easy. As I jumped into the battle, the music fueled my combat prowess; my first strikes being towards one sekirei's neck and shoulder joint, and the other strikes to some other one's ribs. They grunted whenever they'd try to either help one another, and it just made it all the more easy to just effortlessly take them down. Every sekirei that I struck with even the slightest tap or flurry attack suffered a small blast to the body, and I could hear the bones break. Benitsubasa fought very angrily and in the most ventful ways possible; she was like a superpowered demon or an enabled feral beast in human form. I took down all of my targets in a very brutal and yet merciful way. They were bad numbers anyway, judging from how they fought so poorly. Benitsubasa and I stood over the remains of the fallen sekirei in this little scrape of events, and I said, "Well, I hope that helped you, Benitsubasa." as I took off my helmet. "I really do."
She looked into my eyes and I looked into hers. My heart began to pound and I began to heat up as she and I jumped onto a rooftop and I held her hands in mine. We both blushed and started to fluster out as we leaned in for the kiss. I kissed her lips, pressing mine to hers at first, and then she completely got all into it. Our tongues were dancing as wings of red and pink light ignited upon her back and below us, another emergence occured.
Minato would be involved in the sekirei plan.
