I went to sleep that night yet this time forgot to lock my door. It was a habit before the monster girls even showed up, because if you were going to steal my valuables you would have to wake me up and bust down my door to get to them. Guess I figured I had some amazing protection from such an event happening with Kii, and horse, and a steel bending snake. Instead of finding a robber in my room when I woke up, I found Kii sleeping in my arms. Why?! I mean, her soft chest was pressing against my body, her heated breath was giving me goosebumps, and the way her vines had me pulled against her while she was naked and I was in my boxers it seemed like we had broken the law so many times. I don't think she violated me, it would have sucked if she did, literally, but I think I was still good. I effortlessly snapped her vines and stood, walking out the door and right to the shower. I decided to take a bath for no real reason, after taking off the bandages. Just as I sunk into the steaming water the doorbell rang, and I was still mostly asleep so I just threw on a towel loosely, wrapped one around my dry hair for some reason, and answered the front door.
"You are so inappropriate Yu." Smith said, lowering her glasses and chuckling as I leaned against the door frame arms crossed and eyes reddened. "This is no way to introduce yourself to Haru."
When I tell you I did not give a single damn about the busty, amber eyed, wide hipped, toned exposed stomach, snow white wings, yes I do take note of all this stuff even when sleepy or drunk, ripped jeaned, talon legged and probably fine filled out behind harpy when I simply rolled my eyes and asked, "Since when were you a morning person?"
"Never. But Haru was healed and wanted to leave so... Bye." Smith drove off the by time Haru got in the house, tilting her head at me.
I waved loosely, walking away. "Wait a while. I need a wake up bath." I said, leaving the girl with no introductions, no food, no nothing. Then I was in the bath, gone. I just realized I never told any of the girls about my income. I knew the only person who would probably care was Shia, so I made my mind up on telling when the door cracked opened. Haru poked her head through, and I turned. The realization that there was a hot girl with no thumbs was staring me down as I was basically levitating in the water. This tub was huge now, so I had a miniature pool on my second floor. Despite the hot girl staring me down, my main question was how she opened the door. She walked in, still clothed as she stared at my naked form distorted by the water. Good thing too because my thoughts went south so fast and most know what that means. "What brings you here?" I asked, crossing my legs while jelly fishing with my arms.
"I need to go out hunting for breakfast." She said, and I raised an eyebrow. Strange, but I'm guessing she was a raptor harpy. Three of my four home stays were subspecies, I just realized that. "How long will it take you to bathe?" I grinned.
"Just turn around, I'll get dressed, and we can get you some food." She turned and my predictions were correct. Fine ass. I stood and shook myself off, throwing on red shorts I had brought in with me, and then a white tank top. I let Haru walk out and followed, Tsen trotting out of her room with a yawn. Her glazed green eyes narrowed at Haru, and she shot a look at me. Haru then shot a look at me, and I stuffed my hands in my pockets. "Morning Tsen, can we go for our run after breakfast?" She walked up to both of us, and she looked Haru up and down. If they fought, Haru probably would win. I didn't know much about raptor harpies other than that they were fast and strong. Lightweight centaurs had smaller breasts and while extremely fast weren't so defensive. I tapped both their stomachs, Tsen's being more taut. Haru won in breast size, in outright beauty Tsen actually won for me because it was hard for me to get past Haru's lack of hands and the fact that her feet could impale me. Also didn't trust the mouth full of sharp teeth so much... "Haru, meet Tsen, Tsen, meet Haru. I'm Yu Arkano but you had to know that." Tsen then smiled and shook hand and wing with Haru. "Haru, let's go get you some food."
After leaving the house Haru and I vanished into the forest. She was hopping from branches to stay low to the ground, and I was running through the woods. Haru stopped dead in her tracks and I copied. I hopped up into the trees with her, crouching on a branch. "What is the situation? I asked, wiping away bristles that had gotten trapped on my clothes.
"I need you to stay back. You aren't as skilled..." I took of whiff of the the air, and smelled wet deer.
"A hunter? You're wrong on that one." I reached into my pocket and covered my mouth, then baring large canines and a mouth full of sharp teeth. "You're wrong on that one... Though I must admit it's been a while since I caught large game." Haru stared in confusion, then came up with a plan. I walked into the river area with the freshly soaked deer and lunged for it head on. It ran back into the water only for Haru to sweep down and steal one of its legs. Then I rushed into the water and tore out its throat, dropping it before the deer's blood stained my shirt. I watched as Haru picked up the corpse also known as her meal. I dunked my head under water and cleaned the blood out, putting my hand over my mouth and dropping my fake teeth filled hand in my pocket my teeth back to normal. Haru drained the blood on the ground and I began walking home, and she ended up flying behind me.
"When do you hunt?" She asked, and I grinned.
"Rarely now. My aunt comes from a family of hunters, so when I was young I taught how to." I answered, and we ended up out of the forest in no time. "I guess you were taught the same way huh?" I pointed out, knowing harpies were an all female race.
She nodded quietly, and when we got home everyone was staring at us while Tsen was just laughing. "Hello everyone, I am Haru." She introduced herself and bowed, and I went to the kitchen with her food. I took the stomach, chopped that off, and threw it in a pan. I wasn't going to have any of this due to Tsen's diet, and Kii just liked water, Shiana wouldn't mind some deer, and at Tsen and I were both about to eat a salad and water. The deer smelled so good too! I sighed, finished making that and plated my carnivores breakfast, got Kii her gallon of water, and I dug into my apples, oranges, and lettuce mix with Tsen. The room was filled with gulping, chewing, and groans of delight.
Just as Tsen finished her half of the salad, her and I shared a large bowl since we ate so much, she elbowed me. "Since when did you hunt?" She asked, narrowing her eyes at me and pressing our foreheads together again. I flicked the side of her head gently, rolling my eyes.
"Since I was five. My aunt taught me so I wouldn't have to rely on stores." I explained, and Shiana looked up from her empty plate.
"Why would a human know how to hunt like you in the first place? According to Haru you used fake sharp teeth." I shrugged.
"First rule of auntie's training. Don't question auntie's training." Whenever I did the whip came, and I was in great pain for the next hour. "Other than that I have that of all things memorized. I can hunt with or without sharp teeth, but I prefer with." I said calmly. Their reactions were priceless, except for Kii who walked up to me and pulled at my mouth with her hands and checking my teeth. She had been shrinking, so it was soon time for the pot. "Stop it." I ordered as I tore her hands away from my mouth. "Other than that, what do you guys want to do?" I hadn't really showed them much. I had showed Kii the legendary expanses of my backyard, I did take Shia to a carnival, and Tsen and I just went on runs. Thing was those were very fast and we usually spent more time chatting about random stuff than sightseeing. "Oh, and here are the fake teeth." I pulled them out of my pocket, surprised I could find this stuff online.
Kii ran off, and just as I was about to find her five minutes later she came back in a purple shirt and black pants, wearing bandages on her arms. "Come on Kii, why?!" I asked, and Kii simply smiled, waving her arms about happily. "Guess I'm going out with Kii. Tsen, want to come with?" Tsen looked at me confused. "Multiple species, one walk. Just roll with it." Tsen went back up to her room, got on an all black outfit with a white star piece in her hair, and we walked out the door. "Carnivores!" I called, and both Shia and Haru snapped their heads towards me. "Stay here and relax. Sunbathe if you want, just don't break anything." They nodded, and I closed the door. Kii wrapped one of her wooden hands and wove her vines through the bandages and tied us together. Tsen just trotted along slowly for a change, the soft patter of her hooves becoming a rhythmatic pattern.
"Yu, what's that?" Kii asked, pointing to massage place.
"Oh, that's a place where they make you relax. Massages in short." Kii looked at me in confusion. "They take off your clothes, lay you on a bed, sit on you, and dig their knuckles into your back or palm you." I made some on the motions on Tsen's back, specifically aiming for lower shoulder spots or middle back. Tsen eyes widened and the the sudden onslaught and glared at me, rubbing her back. "I'm not that good at it. It is only a part-time to my full job anyway." I said, shaking my hand out.
Tsen let out a breath and look at me with an upturned eyebrow. "Wait... If that's your part time job, what's your full?" Just as Tsen asked Kii pointed out me on a billboard. "HUH?! How come I've never seen that?" I was in a full on trench coat, all black, with a matching fedora pulled down over my eyes.
I shrugged. "We run through the streets, we don't walk. That and that's a recent outfit they came out with." The slogan read, "Show your stalker side!" It made enough sense. "I model for them due to my foreign appearance and different eye color." I pointed out the red. "People like to try new things, so I was a viable option to the company." I explained, noting the lack of people out today. It was a Sunday... "Also, since I stayed in a normal house and don't wear the contacts nor outfits I advertise, no one knows who I am." Just as I was about to finish a van rushed past me at an alarming speed, I got a glimpse of its white sheen and made quick assumptions. Then Arthur lunged past after it and I sighed. "You guys want to help?" I asked, and Tsen nodded with a sneaky grin and Kii didn't care. "Okay, Kii, let go, hop on Tsen, and book it." Both of them looked at me in confusion. "Sigh... Run after the van!" I answered, and Kii followed command instantly, latching onto Tsen like a vine. Tsen burst out into a pace I had never seen from her before.
I kneeled down, listened for the metaphorical gun shot and rushed full speed. I ended up outdoing Tsen, mainly because I was jumping at least thirty feet at a time. Soon the van was in sight and Arthur was still flapping after it. "Hey! How's it been Yu?" He asked, turning to me.
"Great. Got a harem started." I answered, getting closer to the van. "What's the deal here pal?" I asked, switching to English.
"Oh, simple Arachne kidnapping. You know how their silk is stronger than steel? Yeah, people want that." Arthur answered in English himself, and I sighed.
"You have to deal with this?" I questioned, and he gave a quick nod. Tsen had caught up with us now, and we kept chatting. "Been training to withstand sunlight I'm guessing?" I questioned, gesturing to his shorts and t-shirt.
"Yeah, government said I wouldn't blend in enough during summer months in one of your outfits, so I'm burning up right now. I would have caught the van if it wasn't so damn bright!" Sunlight apparently wasn't fatal to half breed vampires, but it did still bother them enough to weaken them by a studied forty-five percent. Then I realized he was filling my mind with this information and looked away from his eyes. "What, I'm teaching you things!" He complained, and I rolled my eyes.
"Sure, Kii!" I called, switching back to Japanese. She turned to me, and I asked her to make me tree spear hand. Apparently all I needed was a tree to transform, and I snapped one out of the ground. She put her shaky hands on it, and it melded into my arm as a sharp weapon. "Holy shit, I didn't know you could actually do that!" I marveled, waving the new appendage around.
In a quick jump I was on the van, impaling its roof to stay up top. I dropped down and put my hand on the edge of the hole, then reaching out my long weapon arm so Arthur could grab on. I pulled him aboard and he bared his fangs with a laugh. He tore the entire roof apart with clawed hands, revealing a cage that something was thrashing about in. He hopped in and tore open the front of the van, me hopping down to the hood. I stabbed the engine ten times, my weapon now destroyed. I turned around to find Arthur driving, two guys in the back seat bound by their torn out seat belts. If I had to say one thing about Arthur, he could bind anyone with anything. He slammed the breaks after I flipped back into the van's cargo area. I was thrown against the doors, then the cage was thrown into me. I was surprised the quick padding that was made in massive quantity to cushion the blow to the creature inside. Arthur came through the back window, the bars bending to his will with ease.
"Huh, you're pretty strong for a small breed. You actually dented the bars." Arthur said, and I tore through the bars myself. I found a girl that couldn't be more than four feet with a spider lower body rubbing her head of pink hair. Arthur was right... The bars were actually bent a bit.
"Well, I'm still nothing compared to dad or you two." Dad? Arthur's eyes widened.
"Wait, are you the daughter of heavyweight extra species wrestling champ Black Widowmaker!?" Arthur asked, and we both started pouring sweat. The only person my father feared... No Minotaur, Quadarm, or even giant my father worried about. He had even defeated of few of those last ones to challenge himself. But he warned both of us before coming here...
"A threat to us dad? Come on, Arthur and I can't lose!" My father slapped me across the face.
"Wrong. The Black Widowmaker has been the only person that has beaten me multiple times." A younger Arthur and I went pale. "He is so powerful that I say you avoid all encounters with him. Like any heavyweight Arachne he is easily angered, so do not approach."
"No." She answered, and Arthur and I both gained some color back to us. The doors of the van vanished and I was gripped by the neck. "But he is my uncle and person I'm staying with until I find a house that will take me, why?" I was slammed a negative ten stories deep, and I could actually feel a variety of bones snapping despite my body being tensed. "Uncle! He helped save me, why'd you do that?"
"He didn't? How come... Oh. Sorry kid." I felt a web attack to my back, and I was yanked up faster than I was pulled down. Arthur bit me the second I got up, and my wounds healed. Ironic, took no damage until after the chase. I was slapped on the back, and was forced to kick off a wall to prevent from slamming through it. "So, who are you?" The Black Widowmaker had the body of a black widow combined with tarantula, black and white fur surrounding a red skull on the back. His upper body was more muscular than any grown Minotaur I had ever seen, his muscles have muscles that had muscles. He had large black claws and wore a large leather jacket that had to XXXXXL to fit. His six red eyes showed little remorse for nearly killing me and his fur that lined his face was black except for a white tuft at the top. His pedipalps were thicker than my torso and he had to be at least ten feet tall. I thought Tio looked down on me... "Well?" He asked again and I bowed.
"Yu Arkano, Black Widowmaker, sir." He let out a deep hearty chuckle that made my bones vibrate.
"An Arkano huh? Your father was extremely strong. He's the only one that actually provides a challenge other than four arms and bull men, and those guys are a rarity here." He shook hands with me, and when he nearly broke it knew it was time I resumed my training. "You have some great strength for a man your age too. When your father and I were your age we were at half your power at best." Tsen came up by us by this point, and Kii disembarked and walked over to me. She had shrunk even more, and I just remebered something. I had just meant to go out on a walk with my friends and ended up chasing down a van with my childhood friend, finding out a friend's abilities, and then meeting the only person who had beaten my father in combat. This is turning into a battle story... "Here come the news people." The Widowmaker growled, and he turned to me. "Wanna leave this to Vladmire over there?" He asked, and I nodded fast. Last thing I needed was to be known. "Hold still." He wrapped me up in webbing before I could blink, and he hefted me, Tsen, and Kii. When I was unbound we were back in the suburbs.
"Thank you, Bl..."
"Charles. Should have told you that earlier." I looked up, to see him baring his sharp fangs and teeth. Then I realized he was smiling. "Any Arkano can call me by my real name." We fist bumped, me being able to take it this time. "See you soon, kid." He hopped away. Well, I need a nap...
More OCs! More superhuman Yu abilities! Hoorah!
