"Okay, let's do this again... Grovel, humans! My name is Power!" The girl introduced herself as Denji and I sat on the floor. She looked down at us while Makima stood beside her.
Power crossed her arms as Makima began questioning us. Maintaining that positive, yet grim face, she spoke her words. "So. Care to explain why the two of you were stripping each other down?"
"It was Aki!" Denji pointed at me. I felt a surge of anger rise as I almost smack Denji again. Thankfully I was able to restrain myself.
I gritted my teeth and just glared at him. Not saying any word is the best for this scenario since it will most likely make this situation much worse.
"Well... I really can't blame you. Try not to force yourself on others. Copy that, Hayakawa?" Makima smirked. I sighed, knowing that it was just a joke.
"Ah! That was so reckless." Denji nervously chuckled as I gave him another deadly glare. "But what's going on, Makima? Why'd you suddenly come with some girl?"
I glanced at Denji's eyes. It was focused on Power's chest.
That pervert.
"Power is going to be staying with you. Her parents are taking care of something important so I was tasked with keeping watch." She smiled gently. "However, I would like for her to stay here until I look for an empty house where all of us can fit together."
"T-Together?!" Denji stood up in excitement. I've only met him yesterday, but I'm sure of what he's thinking of.
Moreover, another troublemaker I need to keep watching? My balls will be saggy by tomorrow morning, I swear.
"Yup, I'll also be giving you this card. You can use them to buy whatever you want," She handed Power the credit card then hid her hands in her pocket. "But try not to spend too much, okay? That's for the three of you to manage?"
"Give me that." I took it from Power's hand then placed it at the back of my phone.
"Well, that's what I came for. Denji, locating Ponchita is my job, so take it easy." She then smiled while she made her way out of my apartment. "See ya."
"A-Alright. I'll see ya!" Denji replied.
"Thank you, Ms. Makima!" Power waved.
I followed her behind. And before I closed the door, I said goodbye.
"I know it's hard," Makima frowned. "But you need to control the situation until Himeno comes back, okay?"
Hearing her name brought joy to my eyes. I haven't seen Himeno for so long... I'm dying to meet her now.
"She's coming back? When?" I asked.
"Secret. It's a surprise, Hayakawa boy." She smiled gently. Makima placed her hand on my shoulder then looked at me with sincerity. "Hang in there, Aki. Do your best and treat those two like your bratty siblings."
I just nodded since I can't possibly go against her.
"Goodnight." She yawned before walking away.
"Yeah... I wish I'll have a goodnight." I muttered to myself.
After closing the door, I looked at Power and Denji who sat on the floor as they watched the t.v.
Sigh... Time to cook these dipshits dinner.
"Alright, dipshits. I'll cook dinner." I announced as they cheered.
"No! Let me cook." Power intrigued.
"Never." I glared at her then began preparing our dinner.
After cooking, Denji and Power began lunging on the food. They made tons of mess on the table. I couldn't do anything but just threaten to stab them and throw them on a farm if they don't clean the entire table.
Power and Denji seemed like they won't get along. Not even close... I have a feeling that my tranquil life will just become worse and worse.
"Hey! Stop hogging all the sauce!" Denji held back Power's hands as she forced herself to grab the sauce.
"Power needs more! Get away, filthy human!" She fought back.
"Hoh? I'm a devilman, asshole!" Deni smacks power.
"I'm way more advanced than devilman! Power is smart, Power is life, Power is POWERFUL!" She raised both her hands then her plate shattered when it fell over.
"Enough of this! You're both humans... And if you don't clean this place up, I'll throw you out the house." I said tiredly as I just stood up then walked back to my room.
I lost my appetite, damn it.
I then spent the night in my room. I let Power sleep on Denji's room and heard a lot of commotion. I couldn't sleep well since they stayed up late trash talking to each other.
Denji's Viewpoint.
Power and I took a stroll outside. It's now three days since she's arrived. We decided to take a walk for our bodies to be healthy.
"I'm going to Ms. Makima's spot later. She got Meowy for me!" She smiled as she tip-toed.
"Ah," I said in response. I wasn't really in the mood to talk. It's going to be a week since Ponchita's disappearance and it's draining the life force out of me.
"Hurry, human! Make haste as we buy our ice cream!" She smacked my head. Right now, I'm so used to being smacked that I no longer feel a thing.
"Uh-huh." I yawned. Back when we first saw Power. My eyes were fixated on her breasts. When she sleeps, I sometimes just stare at them and think of a way that I can feel them.
However, feeling them without consent isn't cool. Consent is needed!
"Say, why'd you parents entrust you to Makima?" I asked her.
"Makima is smart and nice! But sometimes she's scary... Buuuut, Power is smarter than Makima!" She sneered. Well, whatever.
We walked for around ten minutes looking for an ice cream stand. We couldn't find anything so we just gave up. Power said to visit a convenient store so we could just buy some juice.
When we entered, she ran up to the small refrigerator where she grabbed a bottle of mango juice. I followed behind her then grabbed the same since I wanted to try something new.
"Come to think of it, do you know Makima's place?" I asked as I let my finger run across the refrigerator's glass.
"Yeah. I've been there many times!" She replied while she grabbed some bag of chips.
"T-Then, can I come?" I jolted to her. "I want to thank Makima!"
Obviously, that was a lie. I wanted to see Ms. Makima so I could ask her if I could touch her breasts. It's been going in my head for a while... But if I can ask Makima for consent, then I can do it right?
"Of course! Wether you like it or not, you're now Power's bodyguard! You need to protect me so my nobel prize would be safe in my arms!" She said.
At this point, Power is just a wayyyyy worse version of me. Minus the pervert side, I think she's pure.
"Yeah. Okay." I shrugged it off.
We then proceeded to the counter. She placed our drinks down while I grabbed the card and handed it to the girl. After some transactions, we finally managed to get out of the convenient store.
"Oh! A cat." She pointed at the stray cat in front of us.
"Yeah?" I raised an eyebrow as she ran towards it then petted it's head. "Ya like cats?"
"Mm," She frowned. "You are actually my first human friend, Denji. All my friends are cats. I'm a cat person!"
"So?" I bent beside her and petted the cat as well. I'm fond of cats and dogs, me and Ponchita would feed other stray dogs using my pocket money whenever I'm done doing errands for the old man back then.
"I can only get along with cats. I hate humans... They only think of me as some weird girl with weird attitude. They said that I don't belong in the school, so I told my mom I'll only study at home..." She took the cat from me then cherished it tight.
So she's been bullied? Poor girl.
"But no matter! I'm way smarter than them. Me and Meowy could kick their asses with our eyes closed! Pow pow pow!" She jabbed the air while I giggled at her actions. "And if something happens to Meowy... I guess I'll need the help of humans... Wether I like it or not, I have no choice."
"That's just pathetic." I stood up. "But you know, if it's to feel some breasts, I'd help out someday."
"You're worse too! You only care 'bout them bodies!" She hissed.
"Well well, don't hate me. I'm just a guy trying to fulfill my dream, Powy." I sighed.
"As I said... There's no understanding humans." I heard her mutter.
She let go of the cat then we started walking back home with our drinks and get chips. When we got back to Aki's apartment, we where greeted by a groundbreaking smell. Power and I rushed to the kitchen where Aki was cooking.
"What are ya cooking, Aki?" I asked, butting my head with him.
"Get the fuck back! Don't ruin this... I'm trying to master my cooking here!" He yelled at us.
"Okay, sorry..." Power and I inched away.
Power and I decided to just sit on the floor while we watch some programs on the t.v. We were just passing time since I'll come with her when she goes to Makima's place.
And then... I'll finally ask Makima...
"Ah. You pervert!" Power poked my drooling lips. I didn't realize that I was already thinking out loud...
