Family
Chapter 19
(Mai Hime Vs Kampfer One)
Miyu Greer was tall and slim, and had the oddest shade of light blue hair. She was also an advanced combat cyborg, with superhuman strength, durability and a arm she could convert into a sword and a rotating machine gun.
(Interestingly, she had functionally just RUN cross country from Fuka. And it only took a few hours to get there, mostly because she was also trying to be covert.)
Miyu found the Mishima home, and checked out the area. There was a surprising lack of security... it appeared to be a simple residence.
'I could simply attack the building...' Miyu considered cold bloodedly.
For a moment Miyu imagined her beloved Alyssa being beside her. She was nearly as ruthless as she was, but Miyu felt certain she would be unhappy with killing innocent people.
'I will tail Nao, find a deserted location, and deal with her,' Miyu decided.
She watched a brown haired, meek looking girl leave, then saw Nao. The redhead looked... more relaxed than Miyu remembered. Interesting. They both hurried down the street, then caught a bus. Miyu followed, moving inhumanly quick.
Once again Miyu was surprised at the lack of visible security around the girls' school, Seitetsu Gakuin High. While she didn't expect armed guards all over, there were barely any precautions. She walked into the school dressed in her Fuka school uniform, and other than checking in at the office, no one commented.
"May I ask which class Nao Yuuki is in?" Miyu asked.
"Girls from other schools are fans of her too?" the older woman muttered.
"Hmm?" Miyu looked confused.
The woman shook her head. "Ah. Sorry, I'm not allowed to pass that information on," the secretary replied.
"Thank you," Miyu calmly walked off.
"Huh," the secretary dialed a number.
Miyu considered just walking from class to class, but that would be inefficient. Her scanning capabilities were also limited due to prior damage when she and Alyssa had battles against the HIME. Still, there were options...
Several girls saw her, whispered, then hurried off to tell others.
Before anything else could happen, a group of women all wearing matching white bracelets appeared. "What are you doing here?" Ryouka Yamakawa demanded, the White Kampfer toting a very real looking machine gun.
Miyu charged them while switched her arm to sword mode, slapping the girl's gun right out of her hands.
"Yaaaah!" the sword weilding kampfer Sayaka Nakao yelled, charging.
Miyu parried, then scampered backwards. The odds were not in her favor.

"Nao!" Mikoto burst into the class room. "President Sango wants you."
"I could have told you that," a classmate muttered.
Nao just ignored that. "Ma'am?" she asked the teacher.
The older woman sighed but nodded, knowing the Student Council's power in the school. "Come back as soon as possible," she ordered.
"Yes ma'am," Nao lied as they hurried out. "What's going on?" she asked the katana wielding Kampfer as they hurried down the hall.
"Crazy blue haired chick with a sword arm," Mikoto blurted.
Nao blinked, "Miyu. Fuck."
"What?" Mikoto asked.
"She ALSO has guns. We need to stop her," Nao said grimly.
Several student officers and White Kampfer were fighting Miyu. Surprisingly no one had been hurt, so probably Miyu was holding back.
"Target acquired," Miyu casually yanked her arm free. The sword and part of her arm opened, reconfiguring itself into a gun.
"Get clear," Nao yelled as she shoved Mikoto away as bullets began to fly.
"What the fuck," Hitomi Minagawa yelped, the agile green haired girl getting clear. Several students screamed in alarm as bullets flew.
"Shit," Natsuru yelled in alarm as the blue haired magic user joined them.
Nao also cursed, blood splattering her shoulder.
"Miss Shizuku is going to be SO pissed," one of the other girls noted.
Nao sprayed webbing from her fingers, trying to pin Miyu down as much as she could. "Natsuru! Hitomi! You're both energy shooters, right?" she demanded.
"Yes?" Hitomi asked as Mikoto tried to slash Miyu with her sword.
"Both of you, fire at Miyu with full power," Nao ordered.
"But that would kill...," Natsuru started.
"She's not human," Nao barked, "do it!"
Without any fudther hesitation, both girls fired off magical bolts. There was a explosion and Miyu staggered, a hole in her side revealing circuitry.
"Holy shit," Hitomi blinked.
"Hit her again," Mikoto yelled.
Miyu attempted top get free, but the second set of energy bolts hit. There was a explosion, and the woman literally was blown to pieces.
"Fuck," Natsuru blinked.
"Ow," Nao tried to staunch the blood.

"NAO!" Shizuku yelped as she burst into the nurse's office.
"Ow," Nao was having her shoulder bandaged.
"Luckily it was a clean, through and through," the nurse noted as she wrapped the wound.
"Lucky. Right," Nao said dryly.
Shizuku looked relieved as she saw the two casually banter. "Please tell me I heard wrong and you weren't attacked by a Terminator?" she asked.
"It wasn't a Terminator," Nao sighed.
"It WAS a fembot," Sayaka noted, having helped get Nao there.
"What," Shizuku blinked.
"That's not technically wrong," Nao admitted, then explained.
"So someone att your previous school sent a killer robot after you," Sayaka mused. "And I thought our school was nuts."
"Heh," Nao sighed.
"I think we're going to have to have a discussion later...," Shizuku said.
They met after school, with Shizuku, Kaede and Nao and Akane there. Nao explained what she knew about the Hime contest...
"This sounds a LOT like what the Moderators are up to," Shizuku noted, looking at Kaede.
"It does," Kaede agreed, "I'd ask, but they don't seem to be talking to me."
Shizuku mentally filed that away to look into later.
"Couldn't we just tie up Nao and just send her back to Fuka?" Kaede suggested. "It would solve the whole problem."
"KAEDE," Shizuku growled.
"I know, I know," Kaede conceded. She frowned, "I am NOT happy about these people attacking our school. Admittedly, I'm not sure what to do about it."
Akane spoke up, still visibly angry over the attack on her sister. "I think it's obvious," she said.
"Oh?" Shizuku asked.
Impatiently Akane continued, "We find out who sent this Miyu after Nao and take the fight back to them!"
To be continued...
Notes: I don't expect this to be a long arc. Though we'll see how it gets complicated...
