Twenty-six years ago
Koa Maru walked into the lab.
"Mahogany. I have some good news and bad news."
"What is it Maru?"
"The bad news is that I wasn't able to make a male specimen, but the good news is that I was able to make a female specimen. With his Semblance and Faunus trait she could be the greatest weapon we've ever made."
"Fine. I don't like it, but..." Mahogany used his Semblance on Maru knocking her unconscious.
When Maru woke up, she was lying naked on a table. "What are you doing to me!" She yelled."
I'm terribly sorry about knocking you out, but if you are so proud of the bitch then you can be her surrogate mother."
Maru screamed out in pain as the doctors implanted the embryo in her womb without an anesthetic.
When the process was done, she was put in recovery strapped down to a bed.
She looked at her stomach feeling rage well up inside of her. 'I hate you.' She thought at the baby beginning to grow in her body.
As minutes turned to hours, and hours to days, and days to months. Maru began to care for the child growing in her womb.
Mahogany would have her work out to see what effects it had on the baby.
As she came closer and closer to the due date, he increased the stress on Maru's body forcing her into false labor multiple times.
When the baby was born, he had Maru activate the babies Aura.
Maru placed her hands on the baby's forehead and recited the chant.
"For it is in passing that we achieve immortality. Through this we become a paragon of virtue and glory to rise above all, infinite in distance and unbound by death. I release your soul and by my shoulder protect thee."
The baby glowed coral pink.
Mahogany grabbed the baby and looked at it. "When will her Faunus trait and Semblance activate?"
"I'm not sure." Maru said.
Mahogany tossed the baby at Maru.
"Careful!" Maru snapped at him.
"If she really has her father's Semblance then she will be fine."
"And if she doesn't?"
"Then I wasted millions of Lien on a failure!"
Maru grew to love the baby as her own.
Mahogany experimented on Maru as she breastfed.
He injected her with chemicals that would alter the baby's body.
First, he injected her with a Chemical that enhanced the babies bone density making her bones stronger.
Next, he injected Maru with a chemical that would allow the baby to control her blood thickness. Allowing her to thicken her blood to clot wounds, or thin her blood to let it flow easier.
He injected Maru with a chemical that would make the babies skin nearly unbreakable.
Finally, he injected her with a chemical that would increase the baby's immune system.
The baby began growing quickly, and soon she was eating soft foods.
Mahogany began lacing her food with poisons to increase her resistant to them.
Every day he increased the amount until she was fully immune to the poison.
Once she was Immune to the poisons he had and was eating solid foods he began lacing her food with chemicals that induced pain.
Maru was forced to watch as the child she had birthed and loved was tortured ruthlessly by Mahogany. 'Damn him!' She thought. 'Damn him and his need for revenge!'
Mahogany turned on the speakers in Maru's room, and let the sounds of the child's screams and wails in as a way to torture her as well.
Maru slammed her hands over her ears and sobbed. "DAMN YOU MAHOGANY!" She yelled. She felt an ache in her heart, and her throat. The pain burnt and stung making it hard to breathe. She would have gladly taken the pain if it meant her daughter didn't have to suffer.
Mahogany upped the dosage until the child could withstand the worst tortures Remnant had to offer.
When he wasn't torturing the child, she was being taught and trained.
She was proficient in hand-to-hand combat, and weapons combat. She could use any weapon available wherever they were.
On her eleventh birthday Mahogany was angry.
"Why the hell hasn't her Faunus trait or her Semblance activated yet?"
"I don't know!" Maru yelled. "She's just a child!"
"NO, SHE'S NOT! SHE'S MY ULTIMATE WEAPON AGAINST THE MAN WHO KILLED MY FATHER!"
"You're crazy!"
"I'm putting her through the next phase of testing. The only way she will survive is if she has her Father's Semblance."
"NO! I won't let you!"
"As if you have a choice." He said before using his Semblance on her.
When Maru woke up, she was locked in a room with a window looking out at a larger room.
She ran to the window, and saw her daughter being attacked by robots, and pelted by the elements.
"NO!" She yelled hitting the window. "NO! STOP IT! STOP!"
Her daughter jumped at a robot and sliced its arm off with two claws coming out of her hands.
Maru saw her daughter take out all of the robots before the elements stopped their assault on her.
Her daughter was burnt and frozen.
"Damn it!" Maru yelled. "Let me out of here!"
The door opened and Mahogany walked in knocking her out.
When she woke up, she was lying next to her daughter.
"Are you okay?" She asked.
"I hurt."
"Let me help you." Maru said hugging her daughter.
She let her blue Aura wash over her daughter.
"The pain is gone." Her daughter said.
"That's my Semblance. I can heal anyone so long as I initiate physical contact. I'm so sorry. I didn't want any of this for you."
"Why does he hurt me?"
Maru cried. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry."
Her daughter hugged her. "It's okay."
"Coral." Maru said.
"What?"
"Your name is Coral. Coral Maru."
"Co-cor-coral." Coral said. "Coral Ma-marun. Coral Marun."
"No, no. Coral Maru."
"Coral Marin?"
"Maru."
"Marin."
"Maru."
"Coral Marin."
"Okay. Coral Marin."
"My name is Coral Marin."
Maru hugged Coral. "Yes."
After that Coral started being sent on missions.
She was sent to hunt, track, kill.
She was sent on missions for the next four years. Killing politicians, council members, dignitaries, meddlesome news members, activists, Faunus, humans.
She killed anyone Mahogany sent her after.
That is until she met him...
Before her fifteenth Birthday she met a boy on a mission.
She felt a strange feeling in her stomach and chest.
'What is this feeling?'
The boy took her to an alley.
"What are we doing here?" She asked.
The boy shoved her against the wall and began kissing her, forcing his tongue into her mouth, and groped her breast.
'What's this feeling?' She thought. 'I don't know what this feeling is.'
His hand moved down, and went under her pants and underwear
She shoved him away.
'What is this feeling? I don't think I like it.'
She popped out her claws and attacked the boy, eviscerating him.
She ran out of the alley covered in the boy's blood.
"AAHHH!" A woman yelled pointing at her blood-soaked form.
She ran back to the facility and pounded on the door.
"LET ME IN! LET ME IN!" She yelled pounding on the door.
The door opened and a guard saw her.
"What the hell!" He yelled.
Mahogany came out and saw her covered in blood.
"Get in here!" He yelled.
Coral ran in, but was hit with Mahogany's Semblance, and lost consciousness.
When she woke up, she was blindfolded and had chains on her wrists.
"Where am I?"
"I'm sorry Coral." Maru said. "I'm so sorry. I didn't mean for this to happen."
"Mom?" Coral asked scared. "Where are we? What happened?"
"I don't know. Mahogany came into my room, and I passed out. When I came to, I was here."
"And here is where you will die." Mahogany said over the intercom. "Coral. Kill Maru."
"NO!" Coral Shouted. "I won't kill my mother!"
"But you have no choice. Kill her."
"NO!" Coral said.
She began feeling a weird buzzing noise in the back of her head.
"You will kill her now."
Coral shook her head, but the buzzing was still there. "N-no. I w-wo-won't k-kill m-my m-mom."
"Kill Maru."
"N-n-n..."
Coral stood up and ripped the blindfold off before ripping the chains out of the wall.
'NNOOO!' Coral roared out in her head.
Two years later.
The door opened letting light into the room for the first time in two years.
The councilman shown his light down into the room.
The stench was unbearable.
He walked down the steps and looked around the room.
"Hello?" He asked the darkness. "Hello? Is anyone here?"
Short, ragged breaths came from the darkness.
He shown his light around the room and saw a pair of blue eye's staring at him.
He walked closer to the eye's and saw an emaciated girl looking up at him curled up next to a skeleton.
"DOWN HERE!" He yelled.
A Paramedic team came down with a stretcher.
They tried moving the girl, but she refused to leave the Skeleton.
They put her and the Skeleton on the stretcher and took her up the stairs.
When they got her into the light, they saw the girls emaciated body.
Her skin was wrapped around her bones making her look like a flesh covered Skeleton. Her torturous training the only thing keeping her alive.
"Let's get her to a hospital!" The councilman yelled.
Coral lost consciousness.
Three years later.
Coral blinked awake. She felt the tightness of her body. "Wh-where am I?" She asked.
"Doctor!" A voice yelled sending shooting pain through her head.
"What's going on?" She asked.
She breathed through her nose and felt something in her nose.
She reached for it, but her arms wouldn't move.
She began hyperventilating. "Where am I? What's wrong with me? Where's my mom? No! I killed her! I killed my mom! They made me kill her!"
"Miss!" Someone yelled. "Miss! Can you hear me?!""Where am I?"A bright light was flashed in Coral's eyes.
"Ma'am. I'm going to take a look at a few things. Do you know what your name is?"
"My name? My name is Coral Marin."
"Good. Do you know what year it is?"
"No."
"What's the last thing you remember?"
"The last thing I remember?"
"Yes."
Coral thought about that and began sobbing. "They made me kill my mother!" She sobbed loudly.
The doctor and nurse looked at each other horrified.
"Who made you kill your mother?"
"Mahogany." She sobbed.
"Councilman Mahogany?" They asked.
Coral found out that she was suffering from muscle atrophy. Meaning that her skeletal muscle mass had been lost.
She had also been emaciated from lack of food and water, and they had been giving her I.V.'s to keep fluids in her system and give her body the nutrients she needed to survive her three-year coma.
The doctors and nurses helped move her arms and kegs to get the blood flowing through her line again, and after a month of the therapy, feeling returned to her limbs.
"You might feel a pins and needles prickly sensation." The doctor said. "It could last for an hour, A few hours, A day, A week, A month. It will eventually go away.
"Coral nodded. She was no stranger to pain.
When the pins and needles sensation came, Coral got up and began walking around her room.
The sensation stayed for about a day before Coral began exercising to get her body back into shape.
"What are you doing!" The nurse demanded when she walked in and saw Coral exercising.
"I need to get back into shape so I can kill Mahogany."
"Not until the doctor says you can."
"Then go get him!" She snarled.
The nurse came back with the doctor.
"Miss Marin. Could I give you a physical before you hurt yourself?"
"Fine." Coral said.
She laid back on her bed, and let the doctor give he a checkup.
"This is amazing!" He spoke. "Your heart and lungs seem to be in good condition.
"He moved her arms and legs to see if they had any problems.
"Your arms and legs are good. Could I get you to stand up?"
Coral stood up.
"Touch your toes."
Coral did.
"Your back looks good. Do you feel any pain or discomfort?"
"I haven't felt pain since I was ten years old." Coral said in a bored tone.
The doctor and nurse looked at each other worried.
"Would you mind if we run some additional tests?"
"No."
The doctor took Coral to get blood take along with X-Ray's, CAT Scans, and MRI's.
When that was done, she was taken back to her room.
The volunteer brought her some food and put it on the table.
"I don't want it." She spoke.
"But. You have to eat something."
"I'll eat it if you try it first."
"Why?"
"He used to put stuff in my food. It hurt. A lot."
The volunteer was horrified and tasted her food.
Coral waited and watched the Volunteer closely.
After a while, the Volunteer still hadn't collapsed in agonizing pain, so Coral decided to try it.
She took a sip of the liquid. "What is this?" She asked.
"It's broth." She spoke. "I was told that you couldn't eat solid food for a little while longer, so I brought you some broth."
"You don't look like a nurse."
"Because I'm not a nurse." The Volunteer said. "I volunteer here once a week to see who I can help."
"Why?"
"Partially because I want to help, partially to see how people my brother and I put in here are doing, and partially because I have to do so many hours of community service for putting said people in here."
"What do you mean?"
"Well." She said twirling a strand of her jet-black hair around her right index finger. "I get into a lot of fights because I see people hurting other people, and I tend to..." She started tapping her index fingers together. "...break people."
Coral felt something in the pit of her stomach. It felt warm, and her chest felt tight.
"Sorry if that makes you uncomfortable."
"No. I don't know how it makes me feel, but I can't describe it."
The girl looked Coral up and down. "My name is Loki. Loki Saki."
"Marin... Coral I mean. Coral Marin."
"Nice to meet you Coral." Loki said picking up the bowl. "Eat up. This broth isn't going to eat itself."
Coral reached for the bowl, but it slipped.
"Whoops." Loki said picking the bowl up. "Looks like someone need to be spoon fed." She said spooning a spoonful of broth into Coral's mouth.
That warm feeling spread throughout Coral's body.
They stayed like that, Loki feeding Coral Broth, until the broth was gone.
"There." Loki said.
Coral looked at Loki not sure how to understand the feelings she was having.
"Hey." Loki said. "Are you all right?"
"I don't know. I feel weird inside. I've never felt anything like it before."
"What does it feel like?"
"It feels warm, but not like I'm standing in the sun. It feels... nice."
"I think that means you like me." Loki said suggestively.
Coral looked at Loki confused. "What does it mean to like someone?"
"You mean. You've never had a crush before?"
"I've crushed people's skulls before. Is that what liking someone means? Because if so, I don't want to like you."
"No." Loki said. "That's not what liking someone means."
She leaned in close and moved a strand of hair out of Coral's face, and behind her ear. "Liking someone... means that you want..." She leaned in closer. "... to spend time with... That person."
She leaned in closer and kissed Coral lightly on the lips. "And do stuff with them."
Coral leaned into the kiss, and the warmth spread throughout her body all the way to her toes.
Loki broke the kiss, and Coral pouted.
"Hey. Don't get mad. I have to save some more for next time... right?"
"You're coming back?!" Coral asked excitedly.
"Yeah. I've got about four hundred and fifty hours of community service left. I just wish I could spend it all with you."
"Maybe you can." A voice said from behind them, causing both girls to jump.
"I'm sorry." A doctor said. "I didn't mean to startle you. Miss Saki. You are the first person who has been able to get any emotion other than boredom out of Miss Marin. If you are willing to help her recovery, within hospital rules of course, I will let you be Miss Marin's personal Volunteer."
"What do you think?" Loki asked Coral.
"Yes." Coral said without hesitation. She felt like she was having trouble breathing.
"It's a date then." Loki said. "Until next time." She blew Coral a kiss.
Coral pouted when Loki was gone.
"Don't worry Miss Marin." The doctor said. "Miss Saki will be back tomorrow."
"Okay." Coral said laying down.
She rubbed her stomach. The warmth was still there. She didn't know what it was, but she liked it.
The next day Loki came back like she said she would.
"You came back!" Coral said when she saw her.
"You're cute when you're excited." Loki said.
Coral blushed.
Loki tried to hide a laugh but couldn't.
"Why are you laughing?" Coral asked.
"Because you're cute when you blush."
Loki came by the hospital every day during Coral's recovery.
The longer Coral stayed the more she fell in love with Loki.
One day Loki came to the hospital and saw Coral looking gloomy. "Hey there." Loki said with a seductive wink. "What's wrong?"
Coral jumped on Loki and kissed her hard on the lips. "I don't know why, but I have these urges when I'm around you, and right now it hurts. I don't know what to do."
Loki walked to the door and closed it.
She walked over to Coral's bed and pulled the curtain around her bed.
"Lay down." Loki said putting a hand on Coral's stomach.
Coral laid on her back.
Loki kissed Coral deeply, breathing in her scent.
Coral breathed Loki's scent in with the kiss.
Loki stopped kissing her and began peppering her face with feather light kisses.
Loki began kissing and arms with the same feather light kisses.
"What..." Coral began.
Loki kissed Coral. "Shh." She whispered. "Just relax and let me take care of you."
Coral nodded.
Loki took off Coral's shirt and began kissing her neck and stomach.
Coral shuddered at Loki's touch.
Loki carefully and deliberately kissed every inch of Coral's body until she was encompassed in sheer bliss.
A nurse walked into Coral's room at the same time Coral let out a scream of pure pleasure.
She closed the door and put a do not disturb sign on it before walking away.
Coral was breathing heavily.
"What... was... that?" She panted.
"I think you really needed that." Loki said.
"Come on. You need to get cleaned up, and I need to get your bed made."
Loki walked Coral to the bathroom and started taking the sheets off her bed.
"Can I get some new bedding?" She asked the nurse's station.
"No." A deep male voice said from behind her.
Coral came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel. "Loki?" She called.
She got dressed in her clothes and looked around.
The bedding was on the floor.
'Did Loki go to get bedding?'
"I'm sorry Miss Marin." A voice said from the doorway.
Coral spun around and saw a man in a suit.
"Who are you! Where's Loki!"
"I'm afraid that Miss Saki has been taken."
"Who! Who took her!"
"Mahogany."
Coral grabbed the man by his suit. "Where! Is! He!"
"He took her back to the facility. He told me to tell you to come back or she dies."
Coral threw the man away and walked out of the room.
She walked outside and disappeared into the crowd.
She walked into the facility that had her prison for the first seventeen years of her life.
"MAHOGANY!" She yelled pushing the doors open. "Where the hell is Loki!"
"I'm glad you decided to show up. I thought you had died here all those years ago. I thought I was finally free of you."
"What the hell is your problem with me! I was a kid when you tortured me to become your ultimate warrior! I deserve to know why!"
"Very well. I will tell you before you die. Many years ago, a man escaped from this place, killing my father."
"I don't blame him! If he's anything like you, I'd kill him too. but what does it have to do with me?"
"That man... was your father!"
Coral felt like she'd been kicked in the chest.
"You see. We found some of his DNA and tried making a clone of him to send off after him and kill him, but your mother decided to add her own X Chromosome to the mix. As a consequence of her actions, she was used as the surrogate mother, and she hated you!"
"My mother loved me!"
"Ha, ha, ha, ha! Not at first. At first, she loathed you. She hated you. It wasn't until she gave birth to you that she actually loved you."
Coral fell to her knees. "No! It's not true! It's not true!"
"Yes, it is. Your mother hated you until you came out of her womb. She tried to stop us when we injected her with the chemicals that gave you your unbreakable bones, nearly unbreakable skin, enhanced immune system, and blood thinners and coagulants, but we owned you! You were our property!"
"I am not property!" She yelled.
"Yes, you are. How else could we have given you all of those chemicals? that made you the way you are? You are the way you are because we own you! You are mine! I can do whatever I want to you because you are mine!"
"You're wrong! I am my own person!"
She felt a buzzing in her head.
"NO!" She yelled slamming her hands over her head. "Make it stop!"
"Coral Marin! Hunt down and slaughter Loki Saki!"
"NNOOO!" Coral shouted before her eye's went red.
Loki woke up on the floor. "Ugh. What happened? Where am I? Where's Coral?"
"I am not property!" She heard Coral yell.
"Yes, you are." A man's voice said over a loudspeaker. He sounded familiar. "How else could we have given you all of those chemicals that made you the way you are? You are the way you are because we own you! You are mine! I can do whatever I want to you because you are mine!" The man said.
'No, she's not. She's Coral. She's her own person.'
"You're wrong!" Coral yelled. "I am my own person!"
Coral went quiet for a second.
"NO!" She yelled "Make it stop!"
'What's going on?'
"Coral Marin! Hunt down and slaughter Loki Saki!"
"NNOOO!" Coral shouted.
'That's not good.' Loki thought.
She looked around and saw a that she was in a lab. 'Where am I?'
Someone came running up the stairs, and she saw Coral with two claws protruding from her hands in between her pinkies and ring fingers, and in between her middle fingers and index fingers.
"Hey Coral." Loki said backing away. "What's going on here? What did that guy mean?"
Coral swung at Loki who dove out of the way.
Loki looked up to see tears in Coral's eyes.
"RUN!" Coral yelled.
Loki stood up. "I'm not leaving you! That guy doesn't own you! Fight back! I won't leave you! I love you!"
Coral's eye's flickered between red and her coral blue eyes. "Lo-Loki! Run! I don't want to hurt you!"
"Forgive me." Loki said.
Coral swung her claws at Loki, but Loki grabbed Coral's arm and spun her around.
"Forgive me." She said with tears rolling down her face as she glowed black.
Coral was standing over Loki's corpse.
"Well done my pet." Mahogany said. "Now. Take her to your cell. Maybe you will die right this time."
"NNOOO!" Coral yelled stabbing herself in the stomach with her claws.
"CORAL NO!" Loki yelled running towards Coral.
"No. Coral no! Please don't die! I can't lose you! Please."
"Well." Mahogany said, coming up behind them. "It seems that the little bitch regained her mind at the last second."
"YOU!" Loki roared. "YOU KILLED HER!"
"Actually no. She killed herself."
Loki grabbed Mahogany by the throat and lifted him into the air. "I'm going to you a nightmare that is so terrifying that you will beg for death, but I will leave you in your insanity, because it's what you deserve!"
Loki became outlined in black.
Mahogany was looking at Coral and Loki sitting at a lake, holding hands.
Coral leaned over and gave Loki a quick peck on the cheek.
The two stood up and walked into their house.
They laid on their bed with Loki laying on top of Coral with their fingers intertwined.
Loki leaned forward, and kissed Coral deeply.
"Loki?"
"Yes?"
"Is it possible... What I mean is... Could we..."
"What is it babe?"
"I want to have a family. I want a child that we can raise and love together."
"Of course, we can. We can have as many kids as you want."
The world went obscure for a second before it came back into focus, and Coral and Loki had three children. five-year-old twins, and a baby nursing on Coral's teat.
"Is it everything you wanted?" Loki asked.
"That, and so much more." Coral said kissing Loki.
"THAT'S YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE!" Loki yelled. "THAT CORAL WILL FIND HAPPINESS!"
"She needs to pay for what her father did to me!"
"SCREW YOU!" Loki yelled grabbing Mahogany by his hair, and pants before picking him up, and slamming his back on her knee with a satisfying crack.
"AAAHHHH!" Mahogany yelled.
Loki dropped him, and grabbed his hair pulling him up to her face.
Mahogany could see the absolute fury in Loki's eyes.
"Death is too good for you!" She snarled before she dragged him towards a trapdoor.
She opened the door, the stench of filth wafted out of it. "THIS IS YOUR PUNISHMENT UNTIL YOU DIE!" She yelled throwing him through the trapdoor.
She slammed the trapdoor closed and locked it before she walked over to Coral.
She laid down next to Coral and cried.
"NO!" She yelled. "NO! IT'S NOT FAIR! IT'S NOT FAIR!"
She curled up into Coral's side and cried into her neck.
"That was really hot." Coral said. "You breaking his back, I mean."
"CORAL!" Loki yelled sitting up. "You're alive?"
"Yup. Surprise. I'm really hard to kill."
Loki jumped on top of Coral and kissed her.
"Let's get out of here." Coral said getting up.
Loki and Coral walked out of the facility arm in arm.
"Hold on." Loki said pulling her scroll out.
"Hey Jason."
"..."
"Yeah. I'm okay."
"..."
"I know I sound like I've been crying."
"..."
"Because I have."
"..."
"I have a place for you to destroy."
"..."
"The place I want you to destroy is the reason I'm crying."
"..."
"Jason?"
"..."
Loki looked at Coral. "I guess he's on his way."
They waited a few minutes before a twelve-year-old and a butler came up to them.
"Hi Jason." Loki said hugging Jason.
Jason flinched away from Loki. "You stink." He spoke.
"Yeah. I want you to destroy this place."
"Why, Mistress Loki?" The butler asked.
"This place hurt Coral."
Jason and the butler looked at Coral.
Coral took a step back from Jason. 'What has he gone through to make his this intense?'
"I approve." Jason said to Loki.
"Thank you." Loki said.
"Shall I go to work Mistress Loki?" The butler asked.
"Yes Cliff." Loki said.
Cliff began glowing a multihued color, and the building was hit with a black and white vortex, destroying it.
"Thank you, Cliff."
"Of course, Mistress Loki."
"Loki." Jason said. "Pay for Coral's hospital bill, take her somewhere nice, and relax."
"Okay." Loki said.
Jason and Cliff walked away.
"Let's go." Loki said.
"So, what was that all about?" Coral asked.
"Oh. That's my brother, and his butler."
"Why did he say that he approves?"
"Oh. MY brother and I have to approve of whoever the other wants to date. If we don't approve then they either have to change till the other approves, or we stop seeing each other."
"That sounds kind of harsh."
"Not at all. My brother and I know how to read people. If we catch something that the other person misses, then we respect that."
"Okay. What makes a person like that?"
"A really, really, really, really, really, hard life."
Coral stayed quiet. She knew what a hard life was like.
"So." Loki said. "I normally don't like being kidnapped on the first date, but other than that I had fun."
"Wait. You think this was a date?"
"Why not?"
"I think I'm going to like hanging around you."
"Well. You're stuck with me now. So, get used to it."
"Quick question?"
"Yeah?"
"How did your brother know I was in the hospital?"
"He could probably smell the antiseptic on you. His Semblance is 'Analysis'. It heightens his sense to insane levels. He can also kill his senses."
"That sounds like a double-edged sword."
"He'll be glad we have them whenever you come over. I have a sneaky suspicion that we are going to be very noisy in our future."
Coral blushed at that. "Why do you think I will be staying around that long?"
"Because. If you weren't going to you would have left me to die at the hands of Mahogany, but you didn't. Now, let's go. We have some relaxing to do." Loki said grabbing Coral's hand and running.
One month later.
Coral was walking through Vale when she was approached by a man.
"Miss Marin?" He asked.
"Who wants to know?"
"We both know that you could kill me and every one of my men without breaking a sweat. I want to offer you a job."
"I don't kill anymore."
"What if it were to protect Miss Saki?"
Coral picked the man up. "You have three seconds to tell me where Loki is before I cut your dick off and shove it down your throat."
"No need to get violent. Miss Saki is in no danger, but she could be. I'm offering you a chance to be proactive and keep her safe."
"What would I have to do?"
"Just use your skills and protect Vale as an Agent instead of a Huntress."
"Fine, but only to protect Loki."
"Very well. Go to this store and they will get you ready." The man handed her a card with an address on it. "Come to this address tomorrow, and I'll give you your first assignment." He handed her a second card with another address on it."
Coral and the man departed, and Coral went to the shop.
"Hello, hello." The owner said. "What can I do for you?"
"I was told to come talk to you, and you would help me get ready."
"Of course." The owner said. "May I show you our extensive list of weapons?"
"Yes please."
He took her to the back room.
"We have an extensive array of weapons that range from simple to complex, harmless to deadly, eyesore to elegant. What would you like?"
Coral walked through the room looking at all of the weapons.
She was looking around when she saw a pair of fans.
"These. I want these."
"Ah. An excellent choice. The 'Beckon' and 'Blush'. Fan/Saw blades. They use Wind Dust to generate devastating cutting wind attacks, can change into a sixteen inch saw blade, and can be used for general use cooling."
"They're perfect."
"Thank you, Ma'am. Would you like to choose your Battle Gear, and a stealth outfit?"
"Yes please."
"This way Ma'am."
Coral was led into another room where she found Battle gear of all styles.
She walked over to a coral blue battle dress, with coral green boots, and a coral blue cape. "Do you have this in my size?"
"Let me take your measurements, and I will have it fitted for you."
Coral stood in the dressing room in her underwear and bra waiting while he took her measurements.
"There we go. You may get dressed and go pick a stealth outfit."
Coral dressed and went outside to the other clothes.
She picked out a whole new outfit.
She walked into the changing room with the clothes she chose and dressed.
When she walked out the owner walked her to a mirror.
She wore coral pink crop top tank top with a pair of boot cut jeans, and a pair of steel toed work boots.
"I applaud your choice of dress ma'am. Most people think black when they think stealth, but you will fit right in at most casual events."
"Thank you."
"Might I offer you this?" He asked holding up a denim jacket that showed off her midriff.
Coral put it on, and flexed before curling in on herself, and stretching.
The denim Jacket didn't tear.
"Yes. Thank you."
"We pride ourselves, on make fashionable yet durable, workable material. This jacket is both stylish, and you can fight, run, jump, and work in it."
"Thank you."
"Your fee has been covered. Enjoy."
Coral left the shop and went to the address on the second card.
It was a large business building.
She was led to an office where the man was waiting for her.
"Ah. Miss Marin." The man said. "I am Councilman Locke. Tar Locke."
"Councilman." She nodded.
"Would you like to sit down?"
"No. Thank you."
"Very well. Your job duties are simple. We will call you on this scroll." He said tossing her a box.
She caught the box and opened it to reveal a plain white and gold Scroll.
"This is your company scroll. I do not recommend putting anything on it except company names, numbers, dates, times, events, etc. I also recommend keeping it locked at all times and coming up with a password that only you know, and not tell it to anyone. If this scroll gets into the wrong hands this kingdom could go up in smoke."
"Why?"
"Do you know how many threats a day this company stops?"
"No."
"We stop so many threats to the kingdom that if the public found out they would be terrified to even come out."
"What's my job?"
"When we get an individual that we can't break... that's when we will call you. Fortunately, we are more adept at breaking people that you should only be called in once a month, or if we need someone broken quickly."
"Okay."
"As for your pay. You will be paid this much into a bank of your choice." He said slipping her a piece of paper.
"I don't really have a proper concept of money. My girlfriend is trying to teach me, but I still don't understand how much this is."
"Oh. Very well. We will be paying you ten thousand Lien a month. That covers your job, hazard pay, and supplies for missions if you are sent on a mission."
"Is that a lot?"
"Yes. Very much so."
"Thank you."
"Also. If you or miss Saki get hurt, need dental care, an annual or biannual checkup, counseling, surgery, etc. Anything medical at all. You will have access to these places." He said handing her a folder.
Coral looked through it. 'Loki could use this, but since I never get hurt...'
"Also, you will accumulate sick days and time off. Twenty-four hours a month."
'I also don't get sick, but I suppose I could use it when Loki gets sick.'
"I think that's everything. Oh wait." He handed her a slip of paper. "Your first paycheck in advance. Go put that in a bank, and they will let me know where to send all your future payments."
"Thank you." Coral said. "Is there anything else?"
"Yes. Do not tell anyone what you are doing? Mums the word." He said putting a finger to his mouth. "If you must tell someone I suggest telling them you work for the kingdom, and nothing else."
"Okay. Anything else?"
"No, no. Not that I can think of. If there is anything else, I will call you."
Coral nodded and left.
She walked back to Loki's bar.
"Hey Loki." She spoke. "I need your help?"
"Is it help getting out of those clothes? Because Damn you look hot."
"Sure, but first I need help finding a bank."
"A bank? Why?"
"I got a job working for the kingdom. I need to deposit this check, so they know where to send my paycheck."
"Good for you! We need to celebrate!"
"Will you help me find a bank first?"
"Yes. Let's go right now."
Loki grabbed her Weapon and put it on her back in its sword mode. "Let's go. We can pick up something to celebrate on our way back."
They walked to a building.
"What are we doing here?" Coral asked.
"This is the bank my brother uses. Your money will be safe here."
They went into the bank and made Coral an account.
"Thank you for your business." The bank manager said as they left.
"Come on." Loki said grabbing Coral's hand and running.
They grabbed lunch on their way back to Loki's bar.
When they got back to Loki's bar, they put their lunch in the fridge, and ran up to their room.
Loki jumped into Corals arms and the two locked lips in a passionate kiss.
"You're on top." Loki whispered seductively.
Coral caught a hint of something else in Loki's tone, but shrugged it off.
She put Loki on the bed and took her shirt off.
She pushed her down and began kissing her neck before moving down.
She reached for Loki's Bra, but Loki pushed her hands away.
"No." Loki said.
Coral was taken aback but moved down to Loki's stomach.
'What? I feel scars.'
Coral took Loki's shirt, and wiped at her stomach.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Loki yelled kicking away from Coral.
"Loki?" Coral asked. "What's wrong?"
"No. Stay away."
She had never seen Loki so scared.
"Loki. What's wrong?"
"Don't look at me!"
"Loki."
Loki put her shirt on and ran downstairs.
Coral ran downstairs, and saw Loki filling a cup, and drinking it.
Loki gasped on the burn of the Alcohol before she poured another cup and started drinking it.
"Loki!" Coral yelled.
Loki poured a third glass.
"LOKI!" Coral shouted.
Loki poured a fourth glass.
Coral ran at Loki and knocked the glass out of her hand and grabbed her.
"LET ME GO!" Loki yelled. "LET! ME GO!" Loki smashed the back of her head into Coral's nose.
Coral held Loki tighter. "I'm not going anywhere."
"NO! LET ME GO! STOP! NO! DON'T PLEASE! I WON'T DO IT AGAIN! PLEASE! LET ME GO!"
Coral let Loki go. "Loki. Who hurt you?"
Loki began crawling away from Coral.
"Loki. I'm calling Jason."
This seemed to snap Loki out of her panic attack.
"NO!" Loki yelled. "Don't call Jason!"
"What? Why not?"
"Because." Loki panted. "I don't want him finding out that his big sister is so weak."
"You aren't weak!" Coral snapped.
Loki flinched at Coral's harsh words.
"No." Coral said. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to snap at you. You aren't weak."
"Yes I am." Loki sobbed.
Coral picked Loki up and ran her back upstairs.
She laid them both on the bed, and wrapped Loki in a hug. "You aren't weak." Coral said. "I may not know what happened, but you aren't weak."
Loki sobbed into Coral's chest until she fell asleep.
Coral looked at Loki. 'I don't know what happened, but I felt scars, and that panic attack was..." She shuddered at the thought.
She got out of bed, and tucked Loki in before she went to the bathroom and started a bath.
While she waited for the bathtub to fill up, she went downstairs, and cleaned up the glass and the alcohol on the floor.
When that was done, she went back upstairs and turned off the water.
Once the water was shut off, she went downstairs, and took their lunches out of the fridge, and began heating them up.
She left their lunches under a food warmer and went back upstairs.
She began looking through her and Loki's closet, and pulled out an outfit for Loki.
The last thing she did was grab a towel and toss it in the dryer.
'Those magazines had better be right about this, or I'm going to kill them for lying to women all over Remnant.' She thought.
Loki began waking up.
"Where..." She jolted up, and saw Coral sitting in a chair on the far end of their room next to a table, fanning herself with 'Beacon' or 'Blush'.
"You're safe." Coral said. "I filled the bathtub for you, so you can take a bath, cleaned up the bar downstairs, fixed lunch, got you a new outfit, and there is a towel in the dryer when you're finished with your bath."
"What?" Loki asked with tears in her eyes. "You did all that... for me?"
"Well yeah. All those magazines in the store say that girl like those sorts of things. Did they lie to me? If so, I'm going to kill them for..."
Loki jumped at Coral and hugged her. "Thank you." She said with tears in her eyes. "I'm sorry for causing a scene."
"You didn't. You had a panic attack. Something bad happened to you, and me touching your stomach triggered it."
Loki bowed her head in shame.
"Hey." Coral said tilting Loki's head up and kissed her. "I love you, and I'm not going to force you to talk about it. Go take a bath. "I'll be waiting here for you when you're done."
Loki got up, but grabbed Coral's hand, and lead her to the bathroom with her.
When they got there Loki looked at Coral. "Could you sit in here with me?" She asked, her voice trembling.
"Of course." Coral said sitting down on the toilet while Loki disrobed, and slid into the tub.
Loki soaked in the tub and began relaxing.
Coral watched Loki relax in the tub. 'When I find the person who hurt Loki, I'm going to...'
"Hey." Loki said.
"Yeah?"
"I'm sorry I freaked out."
"You have nothing to be sorry for." 'Whoever hurt you on the other hand.'
Loki looked at Coral. "Do you think I'm pretty?" She asked.
"Loki. I love you. I didn't fall in love with you because of your body. I fell in love with you because you came into my life after I had lost everything, and made me feel like an actual person, and not a weapon. Where they showed me hatred, and loathing, you showed me love and compassion. I will love you now and forever."
"Even if I'm broken?"
"I'll be the glue that puts you back together."
"If I'm damaged?"
"I'll repair you."
Loki got out and dried off before wiping concealer off her stomach, revealing thin white scars.
Coral clenched her fists in rage. She looked at Loki's chest and saw scar tissue.
Loki moved her breasts to show a hole in her chest.
Coral looked at Loki filled with holy rage.
"What if I'm scarred?"
"Your scars don't detract from your beauty. If anything, they enhance it because it shows that you have survived something that tried to break you."
"Really?"
"Yes. I won't leave you."
Loki hugged Coral.
"Get dressed, and we can go eat."
Over the next year Coral went to look for the people responsible for hurting Loki.
She broke up several Human and Faunus trafficking rings that year, killing many of the perpetrators.
Then she hit a breakthrough when she found the body of a young Faunus girl with similar scars to Loki's, but these were fresh.
She stayed around the area for a week until she found another body dump with similar markings.
She found her target.
She walked to the front of the compound and took her boots off.
She walked through the front gate.
"HEY!" She yelled getting their attention.
"If you're looking for money there's a whorehouse a block away." An irritated voice said.
"About fifteen years ago you threw a girl out, and she almost died!"
"So. One of our drug mules survived, huh? I guess we didn't kill her when we stopped her heart. What do you think you're going to do about it?"
"I'm going to kill you for what you did to her!"
"Right. All right boys. Kill her and hang her body as a warning."
Twelve men in suits came out to the courtyard carrying weapons, with their aura's glowing.
Coral flicked her claws out of her hands, and a claw came out of each foot over her middle toe.
She took off running at a man and stabbed her claws into his eye's sending them into his brain.
She jumped over him and sent the claw on her foot into another guy's ear, stabbing his brain.
She swung her body and sent him into another guy before stabbing another in the chest and flipping over him before flinging him into another guy running at her.
There was a pressure behind her, and an explosion.
The man who created the explosion with his rocket launcher looked in the crater.
"HEY DANDY-DICK!" Coral yelled from the wall surrounding the compound. "YOU MISSED!" She yelled scaling the wall before launching herself at him and kicking him in the chin sending her claw into the base of his brain.
A man grabbed her, wrapping her in the stonework.
She broke out of the stonework sending stone fragments everywhere.
"Get on your knees!" One of the six remaining guys yelled.
"I'm not your mother last night!" She yelled before running at the group.
She took 'Beckon' and 'Blush', throwing them at the group in their Buzzsaw Blade mode, and cutting off two of the men's legs.
She kicked up into the air and kicked at them sending her claw into one of their hearts.
She spun into another one catching 'Blush' and 'Beckon' before spinning them decapitating two and stabbing the last one in the eyes.
"I'm coming for you next!" She yelled at the man in charge.
"You can try, but I will kill you before that. Tell me. Who are you?"
"You may call me the Crimson Fuc..."
Coral jumped out of her sleeping bag panting heavily in a cold sweat.
"What the hell?" She asked.
She looked up at the sky to see the sun starting to rise.
"Well time to get up."
'OH, COME ON!' A voice in her head yelled.
"What the hell!" Coral yelled dropping her sleeping bag.
'I was just getting to the good part!'
"Who the hell are you?"
'You don't remember?'
"If I remembered. Why would I be asking you?"
'I think you need to eat something. You're really bitchy right now.'
"You would be too if..."
'Are you on your period?'
"Wh-what!"
'Are you on your period? Is that why you're so bitchy?'
"NO, I'm not on my period! Wouldn't you be crabby if you woke up to hearing strange voices in your head!"
'You sound crazy. I wouldn't go around saying that.'
"UGH!"
'See, see! You need food. You're Hangry!'
"You know what. Screw it. Maybe some food will get you to go away."
'Harsh. What have I ever done to you?'
"I'm not listening."
'That's okay. I can keep talking.'
Coral walked to the next village along this route.
When she got there, she went to the Inn.
"Are you guy's doing breakfast or lunch?" She asked the cook.
"We are just finishing breakfast."
"What have you got?"
Ooh, ooh. Ask if they have O-Negative.'
"We have bacon, eggs, and toast with coffee."
"I'll take that."
'O-Negative. O-negative.'
"Here you go darlin'." The cook said.
Coral began eating as she went to find a seat.
'Can I just say that I am a major fan of your work?'
'What are you talking about?'
'Your home movies.'
'My memories?'
'Yeah. But why didn't you let me finish watching them?'
'Because that's not what happened.'
'Oh, and what did happen?'
'After I broke out of that stonework, I used the Wind Dust in 'Beckon' and 'Blush' to throw the other six in the air and killed them as they were falling.'
'Lame. My version was better.'
'My memories. My rules.'
'Fine.'
'Who the hell are you, and how the hell did you get in my head?'
'How do you know that you aren't crazy?'
'I know I'm crazy, but not crazy enough to hear voices.'
'Okay. So, here's what happened. My boss, who's a total bitch by the way, was like. Coral. Do you want my power? And you were like. Oh yes. Give me your power. I want to feel it inside me. And so, he was like My power. It's very big. And you replied with. Don't worry daddy. I like big things...'
"I DO NOT SOUND LIKT THAT YOU ASS!" Coral yelled startling everyone in the Inn.
"Sorry." She said sheepishly. "I was talking to one of my Teammates."
'They don't believe you.'
Coral left the Inn.
'What in the actual hell!'
'You said you wanted to know how I got here.'
'Yeah. I didn't ask for a hentai!'
'Fine! I'll tell you what really happened! So, my boss, who is a total bitch by the way, came to you in a void dimension, and asked if you wanted the power to protect Loki, whoever the hell that is, and you said yes. He touched you and gave you me. His Abomination and I watched your home movies while you slept.'
'If I had known how annoying you were, I would have said no.'
'That really hurt you know.'
'So, did making me re-watch my past like that. I buried it so I wouldn't have to remember.'
'I ship you two.'
'What?"
'You and Loki. I ship you two.'
Coral blushed.
'By the way. Your choice of weapons suck. You need an upgrade.'
'What do you mean?!'
'I mean. You need a cannon! Bitches love cannons.'
'I don't need knew weapons.'
'I'm taking over. By for now.'
'Wait! What!'
"I'm buy some real weapons."
The Abomination walked up to the Blacksmith shop. "Get this bitch a cannon! Bitches love cannons!"
"Ma'am? Why are you talking in the third person? And why are you diminishing yourself?"
"Don't ask stupid questions, just show me your cannons."
"Very well ma'am."
The Blacksmith came back with a black box. "I have these." He opened the box to show two 13-millimeter barrel pistols with two magazines each. "These are the 'Jackals'. They are made with black silver, and use specialized Gravity Dust infused, hollow point, explosive rounds, that deal Devastating damage."
"There, perfection! What else do you have?"
The Blacksmith went to the back and brought out a massive antitank rifle. "We have this. 'The Harkonnen' Anti Grimm rifle. This Weapon has the power to take out a Death Stalker in a single shot."
"I'll take it. What else?"
"Come this way." The Blacksmith led The Abomination to the back room.
"We have this, but the guy who designed this couldn't lift it. No one can. If you think you can lift it, it's yours."
"What is it?"
"The 'Harkonnen II' Anti Grimm backpack cannon. It has enough firepower to kill a horde of Goliaths in thirty seconds or less."
The Abomination walked over, and put the Backpack on, and walked around the room.
"WH-WHAT!" The Blacksmith yelled. "HOW AR YOU ABLE TO LIFT THAT!"
"I'm freakishly strong."
"I'LL SAY! 'The Harkonnon II' Is yours."
"How much for the others?"
"Thirty Thousand Lien."
"FINE! I'll pay it!"
The Abomination paid for the Weapons and left for the Inn.
She dropped her stuff off at the Inn and went to another store.
When Coral was given control again, she was standing in front a mirror wearing a blood red sleeveless dress with a slit going up her left leg.
The dress went over her head and zipped down the back with a hole cut into the center of the chest showing off a large portion of cleavage.
She wore two large blood red sleeves that went from her biceps to her wrists, and a pair of white gloves.
"UH!" She facepalmed.
'Do you not like it?'
'Loki will love to see me in this dress, but I can't fight in this thing!'
'Good thing I bought other outfits then.'
'You what!'
'Look in those bags.'
Coral looked in the bags to find a skintight jumpsuit and an armored three-piece suit.
'What the hell is this?'
'What. You don't like them?'
'I don't even know what they are!'
'The jumpsuit is made out of Dust infused Kevlar. It will protect you from most small-scale attacks, but the armored suit will protect so much more.'
'Oh yeah. What's it made of?'
'Dust infused Titanium weave Kevlar, and some new alloy, Gravmium or something. She said that it's so new that that suit is the first armor to use it. The guy she got it from said that as soon as you put it on it starts becoming heavier or something, so it becomes even stronger."
'All right.'
'Aren't you going to put it on?'
'No.'
'What! Why not?'
'Because. You said it gets heavier the longer you wear it. I like my old stealth outfit.'
'Do you mean the clothes you were wearing when we went out?'
'Yeah. Why?'
'I might have thrown that away.'
"WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU DO THAT!"
'Just kidding. It's in the bottom of the bag.'
'You're lucky.' Coral panted. 'That is my favorite outfit.'
'Want to go try your new weapons?'
Coral took in a deep sigh. 'Sure, what the hell.'
She changed into her old outfit.
'Have I ever told you how hot you look.'
'No, and if you keep this up, I will wear a blindfold when I change or shower.'
'NO! I'll behave.'
'Good.'
'There's only one problem.'
'What?'
'I'm at half-mast right now. Sooo?'
'What the hell is wrong with you!'
'Oh, come on! I neeeeed this!'
'No!'
'Please?'
'No!'
'Pretty please?'
'NO!'
'Pretty please with a cherry on top?'
'Fuck you!'
'Only if you do it.'
'Bitch!'
'Skank!'
An awkward silence filled the room.
'I'm just going to keep bothering you until you do it.'
'You're fucking impossible!' Coral said walking to the bathroom.
AN: Coral is based off Laura from Wolverine comics, so her backstory is really dark. Though what is Loki's backstory? The Abomination is based on Alucard from Hellsing Ultimate Abridged, so that's why he sounds so chaotic.
