Disclaimers: I don't own Samurai Sentai Shinkenger and Tensou Sentai Goseiger. If I did, the series would have TakeruXMako and AlataXKotoha in them with wedding and all! =D


Takeru and Mako didn't know what to do. Here was Kotoha and Alata holding hands, giving comfort. Here was Alata still having his wings out in the open for the three to see. Here was a foreign power that Takeru can finally say that he found out. Yet, most of all, here was the point of where Takeru, Kotoha's Tono-sama, will decide if she can stay with Alata. Alata can see the gears going through Takeru's head. He, though a bit calm on the outside, was very scared on the inside. It was the fact that Kotoha was near him that made him feel calm. "T-Tenshi desu ka," questioned Mako.

"Hai," said Alata.

"Kotoha, you knew about this," questioned Takeru.

"H-Hai," said Kotoha, "G-Gomen nasai!"

"Nani," questioned Mako.

"I kept something from Tono-sama," said Kotoha, "I should have been a better vassal to Tono-sama and not keep secrets."

"Daijoubu," said Mako as she turned to Takeru, "Ne?"

"Ah," nodded Takeru.

Kotoha smiled softly at the two. However, Alata sweated a bit as Takeru and Mako turned towards him. They had a determined look that he never saw on their faces before. Before either of them can say anything, Kotoha tried to save Alata from interrogation. She didn't want to see how Takeru and Mako would tear Alata's brain apart from a lot of questions going at him. Alata looked a bit relieved when Mako and Takeru stopped. Yet, all was not done. Takeru had felt that the others had a similar aura and wanted to get to the bottom of that in the fastest way possible. "Alata," addressed Takeru, "Anata no tomodachi mo tenshi desu ka?"
"Ano," started Alata.

"Daijoubu," said Kotoha, "I'm sure that they are friends he made."

"Don't throw out the idea that they are angels, Kotoha," said Mako.

"Hai," said Takeru, "I felt the same aura as his surrounding them, except for Nozomu-san."

"Alata-kun," questioned Kotoha.

"Ano," said Alata as he let go of Kotoha's hand, "Watashi no tomodachi mo tenshi desu."

"EH," questioned Kotoha.

"I'm guessing that Kotoha didn't know about that," whispered Mako.

"Un," said Takeru.

Kotoha looked at Alata in a bit of betrayal. However, once she thought about it, she couldn't really blame him. It was their secret to tell, and she respected that. Mako and Takeru looked as Kotoha slapped Alata's cheek a bit. Alata's eyes flew up to see a bit of hurt within Kotoha's eyes, yet some understanding. Slapping Alata's cheek was a way to vent some sort of betrayal she kind of felt after some revealing secrets today. Alata smiled a bit and hugged Kotoha, bewildering Mako and Takeru. "Gomen ne, Kotoha-chan," said Alata.

"Betsuni," said Kotoha as she smiled back.

"What's going on here," questioned Mako, "I was sure that Kotoha would be angry at Alata for keeping the others a secret."

"Ano," said Kotoha while tilting her head a bit, "I thought about it and really can't fault Alata for keeping that a secret from me."

"Demo, the slap," said Takeru.

"For betraying her trust," said Alata while Kotoha said, "For keeping Goseired a secret."

"Ah," said a still bewildered Mako.

"Are the others," left off Takeru while looking at Alata.

"Ah," said Alata as he got what Takeru was asking, "H-Hai."

"Takeru," said Mako, "Let's go and talk with them."

"Ah," said Takeru as Mako and Takeru left the field.

Kotoha and Alata were bewildered when the two just left like that. Talk to who was the question in their minds. Alata finally pieced the puzzle on who the two will be talking to. Grabbing Kotoha's hand, Alata ran with Kotoha back to the house he lived in with the others. Kotoha gasped as she felt herself being pulled away. When she asked what was up, Alata told Kotoha that Takeru and Mako will be interrogating the others. Kotoha gasped as she finally realized what the two were up to. When they got there, however, they saw Takeru and Mako calmly sitting on the couch while the others were standing around in shock. Not good, thought the couple.

Takeru and Mako were already two blocks away from the house. The two wanted answers. If Kotoha is protecting Alata from questioning, what is to say that the others were protected? Takeru and Mako stopped in front of the door and looked at each other. "You think this is right," questioned Mako.

"We need answers," said Takeru.

"Hai," said Mako.

The conversation was short, but it relayed that they will be interrogating the others. Mako and Takeru calmly walked into the house and up the stairs. There, they saw a computer talking to the others. As they matched right into the area, the others in front of them panicked as the computer stopped talking and moving at once. Takeru raised an eyebrow while Mako stifled a laugh. It was not the time to laugh about something humorous as that. Takeru and Mako then sat together on the sofa, looking at the others. "Mako-san," said Eri, "Takeru-san."

"We thought you guys would be out with Kotoha and Alata," said Agri.

"Kotoha to Alata wa doko desu ka," questioned Moune.

"Anatatachi wa tenshi desu," stated Takeru.

"EH," yelled a shock group of angels.

Alata and Kotoha cautiously stepped into the living room, never taking their eyes off of the shock-still group and the calm Mako and Takeru. As they were about to disappear into the back area of the kitchen, the group of Goseigers turned towards the two and pulled Alata away from Kotoha. Takeru jumped up in time to catch Kotoha from falling onto the ground while a lot of shouting took place. Nozomu was silent as he sat at the dining table, staring at the group. "Alata," said Hyde as he flicked Alata's forehead.

"Itai," said Alata as he held his forehead.

"You told them," questioned Eri.

"Headmaster-sama isn't going to like that," said Moune.

"Alata, tell us that you didn't tell them about us being," Agri started before whispering out, "Goseigers."

"Ano," started Alata, but didn't get an edge wise.

"You told them," shrieked Moune.

"Do we have to tell you NOT to tell people anything like we do with Eri," questioned Agri.

"Nani," questioned Eri, "What's that suppose to mean?"

"Not now Eri," said Moune.

"I can't believe you, Alata," said Hyde.

"Demo," started Alata but was cut off.

"I suppose that we have to erase their memories," said Agri.

"Sou sou," said Moune.

"Iie," said Hyde, "They are Sentai warriors like us. We cannot do that."

"Un," said Eri.

"Ano," questioned Kotoha as she got her air back.

"NANI," shouted the group, besides Alata.

"A-Ano," stuttered Kotoha, "I t-think Alata wants to s-say something."

"Alata," questioned Agri.

"Buredoran revealed himself on our date," said Alata.

"EH," shouted everyone who didn't know that, even Nozomu and the computer who just came back to life.

Ten minutes passed since the confrontation between the Goseigers. However, questions that the Shinkengers have weren't answered. They, instead, were being ignored by the Goseigers when Alata said that this Buredoran revealed himself. That was another question they were itching to ask about. Exactly who was Buredoran that made the group in front of them become absolutely serious? Kotoha didn't know what was going on anymore and was curious by the minute. "Ano," piped up Kotoha from the couch.

"Ah," said Alata as he went towards the three, "Gomen ne."

"Betsuni," said Kotoha.

"Iie," said Takeru, "We want answers."

"Sou," nodded Mako.

"What do you want to know," questioned Hyde.

"Well, from the display ten minutes ago, I would definitely say that you all are angels," said Mako.

"Un," said Nozomu, "Alata-tachi wa tenshi desu."

"Demo, why are you here," questioned Takeru.

"There was something from space that attacked the Tower of Heaven, destroying it in the process," said Alata.

"Since then, we have been stuck here," explained Moune.

"That answers the why," said Mako, "Buredoran wa dare desu ka?"

"That will be longer to explain," said a sullen Eri.

It took about fifteen to twenty minutes to explain who Buredoran was to Kotoha, Mako, and Takeru. Apparently, Buredoran was an unknown factor within the Goseiger's fight to protect Earth. Alata sat down next to Kotoha as he explained his part in fighting Buredoran as his first appearance: Suisei no Buredoran. Now, Mako, Kotoha, and Takeru knew that Buredoran used to be part of a group called Warstars and another group called the Yuuma Beasts as Chupacabra no Buredoran. "Demo," started Kotoha, "Why does he always target you guys?"

"That is a good question," said Agri.

"Watashitachi wa wakarimasen, desu," said the computer known as DATAS.

"This is troubling," said Takeru.

"Sou," said Mako, "First Doukoku and now this Buredoran."

"Daijoubu," said Alata.

"Iie," said Takeru, "We need to prepare."

"Leave Buredoran to us," said Agri.

"Sou, sou," said Moune, "Just concentrate on this Doukoku character."

Takeru and Mako looked at each other, silently talking to one another with their eyes. On one hand, they wouldn't have to deal with someone like Buredoran. On the other hand, Kotoha would be putting herself in danger as a captured person to lure Alata to his doom. Takeru and Mako looked at one another and suddenly stood up. Most of their questions were answered after interrupting a lot about who the WarStars, Yuuma Beasts, and the Matorintis Empire were. Apparently, there were more than just Gedoushu and Doukoku to worry about. Kotoha looked up in surprise as Mako and Takeru walked into the kitchen to discuss some things with one another. "Takeru to Mako wa doko ni ikimasu ka," questioned Eri.

"Ano," said Kotoha while Alata placed a comforting arm around her, "They are probably going somewhere quiet to decide if Alata and I can stay together."

"NANI," shouted Moune and Eri.

"It seems to be right," said Hyde.

"Un," said Agri, "They have disturbing information now."

While the others were dreading Kotoha's surrogated siblings' decision, Mako and Takeru were in the hall discussing what to do with Kotoha and Alata. They knew that Kotoha would just be upset, if not sadden, that she could never see Alata ever again. However, they were very protective of her. They also had to take in account that Alata just protected Kotoha and himself from Buredoran. Thinking back, there were a bunch of times that Kotoha looked taken care of after a hard battle. Maybe it was Alata coming and healing her? "What should we do, Takeru-kun," asked Mako.

"Wakarimasen," said Takeru, "This is a hard decision."

"Sou," said Mako, "Demo, I think we should let Kotoha and Alata be together."

"Doushite," asked Takeru.

"They seem really happy together," said Mako as she peaked in to see Alata comforting Kotoha, "And I can see the love in their eyes."

"Demo," said Takeru, "We have to take into an account that Kotoha may be captured to get to Alata and the others."

"Un," sighed Mako, "That's why it will be a very difficult decision."

"Not that I am objecting that those two be separated," said Takeru, "Demo, I do not want to see Kotoha hurt."

"Watashi mo," said Mako.

The two stood in silence as they pondered on what to do. Either way, Ktooha will get hurt, whether it is physically or emotionally. As the two looked into the room, they saw Alata and Kotoha trying to have fun with the other Goseigers while the two were away. Kotoha giggled at what she was hearing about Alata's drawings and silly moments while Alata was trying to get the others to stop telling Kotoha embarrassing stories about him. Mako and Takeru looked away and nodded each to each other. "We'll let Kotoha and Alata stay together," said the two.

"Demo, if Kotoha is hurt," started Takeru.

"Takeru-kun," said Mako, "Have more faith in Alata."

"Ah," sighed Takeru as the two walked back in.

The storytelling stopped right as Mako and Takeru walked back in. Kotoha and Alata were holding hands, trying to comfort one another. Takeru and Mako also saw that the other Goseigers were prepared to fight for the two to stay together, even though they themselves were thinking about erasing their memories just moments ago. Kotoha started to grip Alata's hand tighter as Takeru opened his mouth. "You two can date," said Takeru.

"Eh," questioned the others as they thought they didn't hear right.

"We agreed to let Alata and Kotoha stay together," said Mako.

"Arigatou Mako-nee, Takeru-nii," said Kotoha as she jumped out of her seat and hugged the both of them.

"Arigatou," said a smiling Alata.

"Demo," said Takeru as he was released, "If Kotoha is ever hurt…"

"She will not get hurt," said Agri.

"Sou, sou," said Moune, "We'll protect the both of them together!"

"Now if only Chiaki and Ryuunosuke will be that cooperative," said Mako as she saw the fierce protection for Alata and Kotoha.

"Ah," said Takeru while he distinctively saw Alata and Kotoha pale to what Mako just said.
