The Search- a revival series part 2 chapter 2
Ai no Kusabi world is involved in this chapter, I own nothing okay, sorry if there are mistakes and if some characters seem OC.
Luck seemed to be on my side, so far no blondie had propositioned me, as they were busy and were not allowed to neglect their duties for simple pleasure, I had also met up with Iason and Luna, we were going to a warehouse of his that has the medo stones, where we can select one each.
I was surprised at the sheer size of the warehouse, I also noticed we walked pass a tank with a mermaid like creature in it, also elven like sex doll androids, there was also parts for vehicles and rare pieces of jewellery and weaponized body suites, we finally got to a large container create filled will multi coloured orbs, it was actually very beautiful to look at, however that was going to make it difficult to search the one that most fits me, it will be like dumpster diving, so instead I turned the container onto its side and allowed them all to roll on the hardened floor, due to their very durable and hard surface they weren't damaged. "Did you have to do that?" Iason complained I nodded "yup it will make it far easier for us to select the one best suited for us."
Luna was slowly walking between all of the medo stones' on the floor, I was looking very carefully, some ancestors said the one for them shined brighter than others meanwhile others felt a magnetic pulse pulling them towards it, Luna had bent down and picked up a very light blue one that looked like it was filled with Ice shards, it reminded me off her eyes. I however couldn't see any shinning brighter than normal, however when I closed my eyes I noticed a pulling sensation and a orb in my mind's eye, I simply walked over to it, pushing all the others out of the way with my feet, once it was in front of me I bent and picked it up. It was larger than Luna's and InuKimi's one but it was gold and looked like molten liquid gold moving inside of it, it only begun to glow once I had picked it up, I removed the medo stone I was using and tried to place the new one however my armour continuously denied it, as if it had too much energy, which will require me to continuously hold onto it.
After only holding onto it, pressure from my chest eased, one I didn't realize was there till it was gone, most likely damage left over from our fall by the previous medo stone, and I could feel and hear Kagura plain as day as if she was beside me in the room, I spoke back in my own head, she was yelling though, "it has been far too long for you to find me, and it's disgusting here, I want to get our stuff and go, come get me NOW!" on her last word I saw a location one in Ceres an old shop called 'finders, keepers pawn shop', I simply nodded to her demand, I relayed the information to Iason who contacted the other blondies searching for her.
It was time to go find Kagura, once we find her, I plan to leave immediately as I do not want to pay this debt they made up, Luna had stated she never signed anything except for when she had to purchase something once and that was only because it was expensive, I knew they lifted it however it's just a confirmation on how quickly we need to leave as soon as possible. Iason practically demanded that we go with the local police they have here to get our item, I think they just want eyes on us to make sure we don't split as soon as we can; little do they know it will be easy once I have Kagura. Sure Raoul saw into my memories however Kagura and I share thoughts and certain personality traits and I consider her family, so we will be able to leave as soon as I am holding her.
I began to walk off stating "let's go get Kagura" I sat down on the seat in Iason's vehicle with Luna beside me cradling her medo stone like a proud mother, "I think you are mistaken Lady Ren, but we are going back to the Eos Tower until Kagura is retrieved and brought back to us. I laughed at his response and said "you are mistaken if you think that Kagura will let just anyone pick her up, even you blondies are not good enough to be in her presence let alone mine." His smirk remained "well my lady you better get over yourself and quick because you know just as well as I that your 'debt' is going to require your view on us to change and quick" I huffed and said "well it isn't my fault if some of your men die because you wouldn't let me collect her myself, don't get up me when you get an angry blondie on the phone."
The rest of the way was spent in silence, Luna had been giving me sideway looks the whole ride since Iason opened his big mouth and mentioned me paying off the debt, she wasn't stupid Luna could definitely put two and two together, I knew she would either try and find a way around this like I have tried or be sacrificial to herself and feel guilty as she will see it as her fault, I suppose we could just collect as many medo stones and travel back home but we need to search the rest of this maxillian universe before moving on, we could easily come across them again in the near future, not to mention this medo stone can't be sealed in the armour, it must need more adjustments, Totosai has done well with working on this armour considering it was made by Loki a god, it was then that my thoughts were interrupted by Iason's call through the vehicle dash board pulling me back to reality which made me smirk, knowing who it was and what it was about.
So it turned out Iason had to turn his vehicle around and go all the way to Ceres where the old "finders, Keepers" pawn shop was, one of Zeke's officers had put his hand on her hilt to pick her up and ended up with a sliced up arm, he should be lucky he still has an arm let alone his life, Kagura won't let anyone just pick her up, and I know the second that I do, I will get an earful from her. I had walked pass all the officers in the back hallways that were cramped with lots of different merchandise, they all were glaring at her beauty, I smirked they obviously didn't like the treatment that was given to their fellow officer from her. She was placed in a back corner, all red and gold, gleaming in what little light there was, I grabbed her, and as if a wave hit me, she shouted "Finally, what took you so long!" I said back "the politics of this world are shity and sucks, I'm sorry I had to deal with them and took so much time before finding you." I said it with a very bored and flat tone, but she didn't respond for a while causing me to frown, "you got your own medo stone, good lets go home, I know what those bastards are trying to do, and I don't want to deal with it, and I know that you don't either." I nodded and sighed, making my way out of the small pawn shop, I looked at Iason and in the car still was Luna, looking wary, which put me on edge, as the officers followed me outside, "good time to go back to the Eos Tower, you can thank Zeke in person for locating your weapon." I heard Kagura go off at him referring to her as just a weapon, "you mean Kagura, and I had to tell him where she was located, I think I am going to go home, I do not need to pay you or anyone else back but also the family will start to get worried if we are gone for too long, also I can inform father to continue negotiations with you instead of me, I am sure he will be able to find something that you would be happy to continue future trades with, rather than sex and slavery." I smiled at him and bowed to him, "come on Luna."
As Luna was getting out of the vehicle, I heard what sounded like a thunder clap up above our heads, I looked up and couldn't believe it, there was Shiro, Byakuya and GRIMMJOW! They were all slowly descending from the sky, it was then that I noticed the smaller medo stone in Shiro's hands, the police around us went on the defensive, I quickly yelled out "stand down they are friends" Iason and Zeke agreed and told the humans to stand down, they finally touched down on the ground, I smiled and hugged my twin, before backing up and asking, "what are you doing here?" he simply smirked and said "we thought you were in trouble, so we came," I looked over and Grimmjow had his arms crossed over his chest and his forever plastid on scowl, meanwhile a blur went past me and slammed into the stoic captain, "Byakuya!" Luna was wrapped around his waist giving him a hug, he simply patted her hair "Luna" he simply stated, "it seems our assistance may be needed?" he asked me "very much so" Grimmjow cracked his knuckles and said "okay who can I kill" his blood lust rising and putting the humans on edge and making them sweet, we all whipped our heads back to look at him with wide eyes and I stated "down Grimmjow, we only need help with negotiations." He looked like someone just kicked his puppy before his face quickly settled into his ever perfected scowl.
EOS TOWER- 1 hour later
Byakuya, Grimmjow, Shiro, Luna and myself all sat at one end of the table as the blondies took their rightful chairs around the table, "are you saying the gist of giving life back to two people and a blondie at that, is not of the same value that my sisters have asked for?" Shiro said in a businesslike manner, he was always very tactful and smart.
Iason Mink chuckled and said "No Mr InuTashio, it's just that since then a new debt has accumulated and needs to be paid." My brother was informed prior, we were given a private room where I informed the new comers of the situation we currently found ourselves in, Byakuya was disgusted with what those in this world called debt and how it was paid in certain circumstances, Grimmjow just proposed that we kill them and take what we want, I wasn't entirely against it however we may need their advanced help again in the future especially when this world was a continual treasure trove for Medo stones, so that was out. It was Shiro who said that he would settle all differences and debts, however it may come at a greater price than we would like to pay and even in the future will require just to pay in ways we don't like, well maybe InuKimi will, also father had wanted all members of the family to possess a medo stone to help each other and travel when needed, it wasn't technically forbidden and yes all demons in our family had a great knack for learning how to use them, well except me for my first time, so that will require us to pay in our future dealings.
"How about I pay the debt that is owed by my sister's and then we leave on our merry little way with no debt, and in the future we can return and continue our even dealings just like what has transpired however if something is offered without a terms of repayment like what you did to Luna then it will not count, that will also apply to us." He asked, he was going to let father and InuKimi handle the proceedings from here on out, and Shiro was willing to pay off our debt that we were coned into, he was gay after all and even though our species is known for being promiscuous that doesn't apply to Luna in her circumstances and I haven't been with anyone since my late husband, it's quite ironic that I stated that I would rather sleep with Grimmjow and here he is, and if this falls through then Byakuya is here to say that the Seireitai is backing us up and anything against us will result in them needing to step in, even I know that the blondies have no chance in winning against the soul reapers, I just am not able to speak on their behalf, however they do want their soul king royal squad back.
"What if I state that we want to study your companion Grimmjow instead?" He asked with a quirked eyebrow, "life fucking hell you bastards will be getting close to me unless it's my fist in your face!" yeah good old Grimmjow can always rely on him to be frank, "well that is a shame then, other than that we still want the payment from Serenity via her body…" he was cut off by Byakuya "that is Lady Serenity, she is of one of the highest noble families and thus is not needed to lower herself to your standard, in doing so will result in the Seireitai to step in and defend her pride and save her from humility…" Byakuya droned on with his noble speech and using the soul reapers power to scare and make the blondies back off or change their price to something we could pay, Grimmjow leaned over to me and whispered "so these guys actually want to fuck you, just because, why not, I don't see the problem." I gave him a deadpan look and responded "well if it's so good why don't you sleep with them?" I asked with my voice lathered in sarcasm, his face had screwed up in a disgusted look, "oh get real, I don't swing that way, but you like guys don't you?" He asked once more, he was smirking again, he was enjoying riling me up, I huffed "Yeah I do, but honestly I would rather sleep with you than them." I was honest and quickly turned my head away with a blush, however I was sure he was either disgusted or better yet surprised, from the corner of my eye I could tell it was the later of the two.
However short our talk was it obviously inspired him to stand up and speak loudly interrupting Byakuya's speech in the process, "look here, you blond bastards, your only options are 1- sleep with the young kid Shiro and that is it, all debts are paid, 2- say no and have the reapers in a war with yous that you will definitely loose at seeing as I personally will be backing them up or 3- let us leave and wait for the actual head of the family to get his ass here and settle this once and for all!" Grimmjow had pointed at them and then slammed his closed fist down on the table "so what is it gonna be?" I quirked an eyebrow at his words and not to mention attitude and actions, 'sure we got close during our training and staying together in Hueco Mundo but I didn't think he would care enough to come and help us and then jump into a one sided war, actually why was he even here, surely father didn't get him to come here?' Iason smirked and instead of asking actually stated "the InuTashio's want something else from us already don't yous?" his stupid arrogant face was plastid with a knowing smirk. Dammit Grimmjow gave away too much when he mentioned father coming himself and every choice ends up with either us taking over and getting what we want or paying a debt then getting what we want or father settling a debt and getting what he wants.
Okay great how do we answer this? "yes we want Medo stones for each and every one of the family members, you can't be surprised and not to mention this is the only place where they seem to arrive in bulk, but nothing has changed what Grimmjow has stated is yours and our only predicament chose option 1,2 or 3." I was surprised that Shiro was so forth coming but I think it was obvious that they knew what we wanted seeing as there wasn't anything else of significance that we wanted from their world; Grimmjow whispered over to me "you owe me for stepping in and finishing this off quickly." I looked at him surprised, 'oh I see, he is most likely wanting to fight again, just like how we use too, must admit, I never returned to challenge him when I thought I was ready to beat him, and I honestly don't know if I can unless I use a law.
"Fine we go with option 3, we would rather talk to the head of the noble clan and have us agree on settling the current debt and any future debts that may come up, yous are dismissed." The other blondies didn't even seem angry or worried about what Iason said however Shiro seemed absolutely pissed, as we walked outside the Eos Tower to an open area, I was going to ask him what was going on, he seemed to pick up on something I hadn't and he was sharper in these kinds of negotiations and such but the look he gave me said 'don't ask, I'll tell you later.' With that look I tapped my Medo stone and with Kagura's help my new medo stone enveloped and area into an open box like room, we stepped in and was then closed off, as it moved through space to our home, however this time we landed on our home land, when the made energy room disappeared, everything with my Medo stone felt smooth and extremely powerful, maybe that's why we got here so fast even while taking more people, Kagura even commented that with just a thought of this place had us moving here.
Father was out in the field waiting for us to return he seemed riled up and worried, he levelled all of us with a look and his eyes travelled over both Luna and myself as if assessing for injuries like he did when we were younger. "Follow me" was his only words when he took off into our home. Grimmjow hanged back, obviously outta his comfort zone, once we were inside we were seated and refreshments given to all in the open parlour room, even mother grabbed up and hugged us "thank god yous are alright!" she exclaimed as she searched us all over, I knew time moved differently but how come they are so worried, and then it twigged to me, Luna was badly injured in our arrival, father would have been able to feel that through the splice, even though I was also spliced with Luna, father was too, it was just a precautions, we sat down and went over everything that had happened while we were there and also when the three came to as they say 'rescue.'
I found out that Grimmjow went to the soul society looking for a fight with me, I honestly think that he missed me as it is only him and Nel maybe he is getting soft in his older age that or just bored and lonely, I personally think he enjoyed us staying with him for those four years, but I definitely didn't miss the feeling of his eyes continuously landing on me as we went over everything that happened, Shiro continued to fill in father as it got to him entering in and helping us out. It also turns out that what he picked up on was that the blondies were trying to re- negotiate with yet another person and seeing if he can confuse one of us into agree to give them what they want and he thinks it may be Luna or to experiment on one of us in a way that Captain Mayuri would do to something he had never came across before. That left me worried, however they got to do full examinations the last thing Shiro guessed was that maybe they wanted a full or half breaded baby demon, even though I couldn't have a child, Shiro could with a human as he was more dominate over a human however he was a half breed, Luna was a half breed but any child she has will also come out has a half demon regardless. He was certain they wanted more than just sexual desires when it came to our species, father nodded along and was quite he was thinking over his options, yes we could fight and beat them, we technically could let them sleep with Luna however that was up to her and father and right now having a child is terrible, I also noticed Byakuya being incredibly anger by the mention of them wanting to do those things to her, and Grimmjow didn't see the problem of sex so long as you swing that way. Father had finally spoken his decision, "I plan on going there and settling this myself, you girls need to get your medo stones fixed into personal armour, InuKimi will deal with that, and she will continue the search with her Medo stone while yous two have the medo stones placed." It was Byakuya who spoke up at this time "also I am not only here to help but the gotein 13 requests the help of you Lady Serenity especially as you are a Captain, you are obliged to respond and help us, are you not?" I know his wording came off harsh and commanding, but he didn't mean too, this issue must be really important seeing as he was willing to come to another world, step into noble family issues and even threating a world into a war that they couldn't win just to get my help with something, and why me? However I nodded in agreement, "I will give my items over to InuKimi and will come with you to solve whatever it is you need of me…" however for the first time other than saying fucking a debt off it worth it, Grimmjow spoke "he, hey Pretty boy, get in line she owes me first then she can help your lot," he frowned to Byakuya, still leaning against the wall where he was seated on the arm of the couch, however Byakuya stood up, "this is off great urgency and importance I would appreciate it if your silly fight can wait till after this issue is fixed…" again Grimmjow's commanding and I don't give a fuck attitude stepped over Byakuya saying "who said I wanted a fight, maybe I have other dealings with her, huh you ever thought of that you pompous ass?" I could see the tick mark on Byakuya's head, he wasn't happy and I could feel it in his spirit pressure; however I diffused the situation by getting up and grabbing Grimmjow around the wrist and leading him out of the room and practically to the other side of the castle house just so we wouldn't be overheard.
"So what is it you want?" I was pretty pissed he was being demanding and after not seeing him in such a long time it honestly surprised me however I had assumed the same thing, that he also wanted to fight me, but his next action answered my question and also left me with more questions, he had slammed our lips together, my eyes popped open in my shock, but his were closed.
-And CUT, that's a wrap-
Okay yeah I'm stopping it here for now a beautiful cliff hanger, I don't plan on going back to Ai no Kusabi, I also hope yous like the way I wrote Grimmjow, I really enjoy writing him, I was planning on writing more however I will have more to add to the next chapter instead, for now my lovey's this is goodnight and goodbye.
