Puella Magi American Sensei
07
"It's taken care of, sensei."
Sensei looked up from where he was grading papers in my sitting room, smiling when he met my eyes. His gaze turned to Suzune beside me, who nodded in confirmation.
"Good job, Homura. Tell me what happened."
I nodded and sat down across from him, Suzune taking the seat at his side and handing him her soul gem, before bringing out a grief seed and hesitating before passing that over as well. "What's this?"
"Homura said you could help her. It belonged to Mikoto Tsubaki. She was… like a mother to me."
He took the grief seed in hand, his eyes lidding briefly, and I wondered if the effect of purifying a grief seed was as pleasant for him as having our soul gems purified was for us.
"I'll hold onto it for a few days."
Seeing his expectant look, I nodded and began my tale.
"Two days ago…"
I moved through the gray world that was stopped time. Finding Suzune's class, I went over the teacher's seating chart. Sensei said Hinata's sister was in this class, so we'll start there.
Finding a Hinata Matsuri, I made my way over to her desk. Taking out my phone, I snapped a picture of her face. Her own phone was on her desk and unlocked, so I picked it up. After a moment of holding it, the phone became usable as it caught up to my time. I flipped through the contacts and began taking down names. Next, I went into her photos.
Hah, yes. They really did. But what did you expect, sensei? Girls love taking photographs, especially selfies, and they love cute things. Magical girls are even cuter than normal girls. So of course they would take pictures of themselves and each other in their magical girl uniforms.
I took pictures of her pictures, closed out of everything, and put her phone back where I had found it. Then, I moved through the school, searching for the faces in the pictures. I found them and put names to faces, using Matsuri's contact info. Next, I accessed the school's student records and got further details of them, including addresses, parents and siblings, and so on.
You would be surprised how many people just walk away from their computer and leave it unlocked. And while I can't use a computer without a battery under time stop, creating a diversion to get them away from their computer is easy enough.
Finally, I went through the school looking for anyone who looked similar to Matsuri, reasoning that perhaps the hostile Hinata sister would want to keep close tabs on Suzune. Unfortunately, I didn't find anyone who looked similar enough to warrant further investigation. So, I left the school.
While school was in session, I spent time out in plain clothes, searching the usual places a delinquent teen girl would hang out under the assumption that she would likely skip school entirely if her focus was on destroying Suzune's life—after all, what point is school when you plan to become a witch anyway?
Yes, I based my search on places Kyoko would hang out at.
I didn't have any luck there, so when lunch time came, I entered the school under chronoprohibiris and found a bathroom to drop my transformation in. Walking around in a uniform borrowed from Suzune—
…I'm a little larger in the chest, sensei. It was slightly uncomfortable but the effect worked for me.
As I was saying, posing as a student, I began my reconnaissance. First, I went around to the classes belonging to the members of Matsuri's team and asked their classmates for details on them.
Sigh Yes. I know my personality is too blunt for that, normally. Thank you for the compliment, sensei. That is why I… emulated my old self. Or rather, it would be more appropriate to say that I pretended to be Madoka.
Please do not call me 'Moe-mura,' sensei. It's embarrassing.
…Why do you always ask me to put my hair up in braids and put on glasses for you? Fine. Fine! I will suffer this humiliation for your personal enjoyment, but I will have compensation.
Continuing on…
After gathering intelligence, I left the school and passed time until school ended. Once it ended, I shadowed Matsuri and confirmed she and her friends were magical girls. I also got a rough idea of what their powers were. I'll send you an email with the profiles I made on each of them later, sensei.
Yes, I did my homework thoroughly. Be sure to reward me just as thoroughly for being a good student, sensei~.
The next day, I began putting my plan into place. Beginning with meeting Suzune in the morning.
Suzune panted softly as she caught her breath from her run delivering papers. In this gray world, we didn't have to worry about eavesdroppers, so we were free to speak without worry.
"Approach them? You're sure?"
"Yes. Approach them. Tell them you've met some friends in Mitakihara and would like to schedule a meet up later in the week. Then leave. Unless they want to spend time with you, then do so. If Hinata is watching, she may reveal herself. If not, we move on to Plan B, for Bait."
"What's Plan B?"
"Simple. The next day, you ask them to meet. Then, tell them about the rogue magical girl killing other magical girls, the so called Ripper," Suzune winced, "and then describe her powers as someone who can manipulate memories. You know what her magic is because she tried to edit your memories to make you believe you were the Ripper, but Sensei in Mitakihara was able to break the programming.
"Her weapons are a sword and a chakram, according to sensei, so add that description. Tell them you've discovered her family name is Hinata and point out that she looks like Hinata Matsuri. This may break her memory manipulation over her sister just as sensei broke yours. This will hopefully unite them against her and force her into the open. But just to be sure…"
On the afternoon of the second day, I lay on a rooftop, watching through my rifle scope and waiting. On the roof of a building at a lower level nearby, Suzune waited.
Finally, four other magical girls joined her on the rooftop.
Kanade Haruka.
Blonde hair, yellow eyes, fifteen years old, 161.5cm, 50.2kg, blood type O. Soul gem: inverted yellow/orange pentagon or shield at the neck. Uniform colors: white, with yellow and orange accents. Weapon: dual bladed spear that splits into short swords. Primary magic: attraction, distraction, attention fixation—yes, basically an aggro-managment skill. Leader of the Hohzuki magical girls.
Shion Chisato.
Dark blue hair, blue eyes, fourteen years old, 155.4cm, 44.7kg, blood type A. Soul gem: blue teardrop between her breasts. Uniform colors: blue with white accents… and a lot of skin showing. Weapon: double pistols. Primary magic: I believe it to be magic cancelation. Second in command of the Hohzuki girls.
Narumi Arisa.
Pink hair, pink eyes, fourteen years old, 156.2cm, 45.8kg, blood type B. Soul gem: pink heart on her back. Uniform colors: pink with white and red accents, black and white striped stickiness stockings. Weapon: scythe. Primary magic: strength enhancement.
Hinata Matsuri.
Green hair, green eyes, thirteen years old, 147.6cm, 41.3kg, blood type O. Soul gem: green oval hair pin. Uniform colors: green with white accents. Weapon: gauntlets. Primary magic: detection or scouting.
I told you, I did my homework thoroughly. You'll reward me—. … Thank you, sensei.
Turning on my listening device, I kept one ear free to listen to my surroundings while I observed through the scope.
Below, Suzune introduced herself to the other magical girls, going through our our agreed upon script. While she did, I kept an eye on the surrounding area, looking for either other magical girls or girls lingering nearby. Also, for the rat, which I spotted listening nearby.
"Why did you call us up here, Suzune-san?" Haruka asked, sounding mildly suspicious but not upset.
"I recently met with a small group of magical girls in Mitakihara. They're looking for friends and allies, people they can turn to for help, in exchange for offering their own assistance. They would like to arrange a meeting for later in the week, either with your group as a whole or a representative who can speak for the group. They told me some things that were… enlightening, to say the least."
The girls all exchanged looks before Chisato asked, "What sorts of things?"
Suzune shook her head. "The kinds of things we shouldn't talk about in public. Someone may be listening and we don't want it getting out. The meeting will be in a secure location, safe from prying eyes and ears. It's not neutral ground, which is why they're offering the invitation to your whole team. No one wants this to feel like a trap."
"Do you know where the meeting will be?" Haruka asked, and Suzune shook her head.
"No. The last meeting was at one of their homes, but obviously that isn't going to work for future meetings, especially if large groups. They've already begun taking about finding and securing a new meeting place. Maybe a base. Somewhere for a large group to meet up comfortably and operate out of."
Putting her hands on her hips, Arisa demanded, "And why should we just trust you if you're not giving us anything to work with?"
Suzune was quiet for a moment as she thought about it. Finally, she said, "Alright. I'll give you something. I'll risk everything, because it's that important."
Suzune summoned her soul gem to and held it out. "Take it."
The group eyed her warily. After a moment, Suzune walked closer, took Matsuri's gloved hand, and pressed the gem into it. "If one of you will volunteer her soul gem to prove I'm not faking…?"
Another exchange of looks before Chisato summoned hers and handed it to Matsuri. Suzune nodded. "Now, start walking. At about one hundred meters, we're going to collapse. When that happens, bring our gems back and put them in our hands."
"What do you mean, 'collapse?'" Haruka asked, but Suzune shook her head and gestured for Matsuri to go.
With some protesting, the green haired girl left and started running away, going hopping over rooftops. At approximately one hundred meters away, both Suzune and Chisato collapsed like puppets with their strings cut. There was some brief panic from the other girls before Matsuri rushed back and returned the soul gems.
When Suzune sat up, the others demanded an explanation. So she shrugged and said, "What did you expect to happen when you separate your soul from your body? This is one of those things Kyubey doesn't tell you unless you ask. Likewise, destroying the soul gem kills the magical girl. This," Suzune gestured towards her human body, "is just meat. This is your real body now," she held up her soul gem.
The others were shocked to silence. Suzune sighed, before turning away from the roof. "Let me know when you decide you want to talk."
With that, she left. I kept in touch with her by phone as she went home, while keeping an eye on the Hohzuki girls. I never saw Hinata, and it wasn't long after that they went home.
The third day. Today.
Once more, I lay on a rooftop, watching the same roof as yesterday through my scope. Four magical girls stood gathered there already and, a moment later, Suzune weakly walked up to the roof from the stairs. Her body and uniform was covered in cuts, stab wounds, blood, and dirt.
"She's coming—" Suzune panted, before collapsing to the rooftop.
The Hohzuki girls erupted in a flurry of motion and panic, yelling and/or screaming at the sight of the bloody Suzune. Haruka managed to quiet everyone down with her magic, drawing their attention to her.
"Quiet, everyone!" When they fell silent, she knelt beside Suzune, rolling the white haired girl onto her back. "Suzune, what happened? Who's coming?"
"The Ripper."
I watched as who could only be the Hinata sister raced across the rooftops towards them, from the same direction as Suzune. Until finally, she alighted on their roof, to looks of surprise and wariness from the others. Matsuri clutched her head and made a pained sound.
Taking in the scene, the enemy magical girl sighed and began slowly clapping. "Oh, well done, Suzune. Well done!"
"Kagari?" Matsuri asked, looking up at her sister through the pain.
"Tch. And of course you would remember right when it was most troublesome, Matsuri." Shooting an annoyed look at the unconscious Suzune, the now named Kagari sighed. "Fine. I'll just make you all forget and get right back to fulfilling my wish to make Suzune's life a living hell, until she becomes a—"
The world went gray.
Standing up, I dropped the rifle and parabolic mic into my shield. Hopping lightly down, I made my way over to the next roof. Walking over to Kagari, I examined her clinically as I spotted her soul gem. She was pretty, looking like a more mature version of her little sister.
I like the dress, but it could stand to be darker…
Shaking my head, I plucked her soul gem off the butterfly between her small breasts and slipped it into my shield.
Color returned to the world.
Kagari collapsed like a puppet with her strings cut. The Hohzuki magical girls erupted into sound again as, to them, I suddenly appeared and who they had begun to suspect was the Ripper collapsed.
"Alright everyone, quiet down!" Haruka yelled. It took a few seconds, but the girls did quiet down. "Who are you? What's going on?"
"Akemi Homura. I'm from Mitakihara. Sensei sent me to keep an eye on Suzune, just in case. Good thing, too."
"What, what happened to my sister?" Matsuri asked, moving over to the motionless body of her sister.
"Ah, I confiscated her soul gem. If she had used her powers, she could have made you forget what happened. Worst case, she would have turned herself into a witch."
The pink haired Arisa leveled her scythe at me. "What do you mean, a witch?! And what gives you the right to just take someone's soul gem?!"
The more level headed of the group, Chisato, reached out and gently lowered Arisa's scythe. "Slow down, Arisa. You heard what that girl, Kagari, said. She said she would make us forget. She outright said that Matsuri remembering her right now was inconvenient. We've never heard that Matsuri had a sister before now, right? That's something she would have mentioned, don't you think? And you saw what happened with the soul gems when we tested them yesterday. She's not dead, just… in time out. I think Homura-san made the right call in disabling her before she could use her magic and confuse things."
"Nn fine! What about the witch thing though?!"
I sighed and nodded. "Suzune said she made contact with you yesterday and explained what the soul gems were and their limits. We were going to wait until you were in Mitakihara to explain the rest. If you really want to know, I'll tell you now, but the rest should be saved for when we can speak somewhere secure. Otherwise, we'll be overheard."
And just who are you so worried about overhearing, Akemi Homura? I don't remember making a contract with you, and yet—
The rat made its presence known. I turned, drew, and fired all in one motion. Kyubey's head exploded in a shower of gore.
"Ahh!"/"What the fuck?!"/"Kyubey!"
"That. We don't want them listening. The short version is that Incubators incubate magical girls into witches with a steady diet of despair, in order to harvest the energy of their transformation into a witch."
Just where did you learn that?
"""Kyubey?!""" The girls who had been frozen in disgust, horror, and indecision shrieked as another Incubator body joined them on the roof.
"It has clones. Lots of them. But I bet I have more bullets than you have bodies in the area."
The little white rat began eating its old body. Perhaps, but we could just teleport more in. What are you hiding, Akemi Homura? Why are you so invested in keeping us away from Kaname Madoka?
"You don't say her name. Stay away from her."
"Is, is it true?" Matsuri asked, causing everyone's attention to fall to her. "Do magical girls become witches?"
Yes. There is a life cycle to magical girls. If a magical 'girl' is the adolescent stage, then a magical 'woman' would be the adult stage. That is, what you would call a witch, by definition.
"Why?" Haruka choked out.
As Akemi Homura said, we harvest the energy of the transformation from magical girl to witch in order to fight entropy.
"Why not tell us, you little piece of shit?! If we knew that we would become a witch at some point, we wouldn't have chosen to become magical girls!"
Obviously. Why tell you something that will only cause you distress and make you become a witch faster, or which may convince you not to accept a contract in the first place? We offer an even exchange: a wish, anything you want within your magical potential to grant, in exchange for becoming a magical girl. It's a fair trade.
"Except we'll die after we make the wish!"
Humans die every day. How is this any different? You could argue that it's better this way, in fact, because you get to have any one wish granted. You could wish for an untold fortune, perfect health or to heal someone else, magical girls who were strong enough might even be able to resurrect the deceased. You couldn't do that, normally! We offer a chance to do something otherwise impossible. If you become a witch earlier than you would have died, the deal is still weighted in your favor.
"You see?" I asked, nodding at the Incubator. "We can't trust them. They aren't human. They're an emotionless alien race, determined to manipulate and use humanity for their own ends, from their own mouths, by turning us into monsters. Because it's efficient to do so. They understand emotions well enough to use and manipulate them, but they don't truly understand them because they don't feel them."
I stopped time and moved to Kagari's body. Slipping it into my shield, I moved over and touched Suzune, who opened her eyes and stood up. We moved back into position, her leaning on my shoulder to give the impression that she needed the support. Time returned to normal.
Everyone by the Incubator blinked at the sudden shift. "Meet us in Mitakihara. You have Suzune's number. Call when you're ready to hear the rest of the truth." I paused, considering what else to say for just a moment, before settling on, "There is hope."
And then, I stopped time and we left.
Suzune watched as sensei nodded, then patted his knee. Homura got up from her spot on the opposite couch and perched herself in sensei's lap. The man then proceeded to pull her into a hug and pet her head.
"Good job, Homura."
Homura closed her eyes and smiled. "Thank you, sensei."
Turning to look at her, he said, "But it sounds like she left some things out. Suzune, why don't you fill me in?"
"Yes, sensei. So, what happened…"
Suzune left the school and transformed. Then, she moved away from the school and found the agreed upon rooftop. Nearby, she spotted Homura watching. Nodding to the other girl, she stopped hiding and waited. It wasn't long before an unwelcome but expected and familiar mental voice greeted her.
Amano Suzune. You've stopped hiding, the Incubator said as it stepped out from behind an air conditioner.
"Yes."
Why?
Suzune studied the creature with distaste for a moment before she said, "I already know, but I want you to confirm it. Did you make a deal with Hinata Matsuri's sister, to turn the three of us into witches, in exchange for her being allowed to have me kill other magical girls?"
Where did you learn that?
"Yes or no, Kyubey."
Hinata Kagari has such a deal with us, yes.
Suzune nodded as she got the very last confirmation she needed. She had wanted to believe the others, everything they said sounded true, and it was true that someone had altered her memories… but she needed confirmation that she wasn't the one responsible for those murders. That her hand may have held the gun, but it was someone else who made her pull the trigger.
Suzune knew her conscience wasn't clean. It never would be. But it was less weighed down than it was before, and she had a target for her wrath. A way to try to make amends.
"Alright. Here's what you're going to do. You are going to contact Kagari. Tell her I know. Tell her that if she isn't here in the next half hour to settle the score permanently, I'm going to tell the others and ruin her plans entirely, and then we're going to hunt her down."
And why would I do that? It would lose us a powerful magical girl—
"Because if you don't, I'm going to kill every magical girl I can find. I'll start here in Hohzuki and kill Hinata Matsuri and her friends. I'll go to Mitakihara and kill Tomoe Mami and Sakura Kyoko. I'll keep killing them until the cost of those I kill outweighs the gain you would have gotten from us by a thousand fold."
I don't believe you will.
"Also, I'll kill Kaname Madoka."
For just a moment, Suzune thought she saw something like surprise on the Incubator's face, or in the way it held itself. Where did you hear that name?
"It doesn't matter. If you don't do as I said, I'll start with her."
There was silence for a moment before the Incubator nodded. Very well. The potential loss greatly exceeds any gain we would have made. Hinata Kagari's bargain is a net loss. It seems we miscalculated the risk of discovery. I'll contact her now. And you won't go after any magical girls, or Kaname Madoka?
"Correct."
We have an agreement. One moment. It tilted its head slightly to the left for a couple of minutes before refocusing on Suzune. It is done. How do you intend to beat her?
"Thoroughly."
Suzune said nothing more as she took out her phone and sent a text to Matsuri.
Suzune: I need to talk to you. We're all in danger. I've discovered the identity of the Ripper. Meet me where we met yesterday. Be ready for a fight.
Then, she shut off her phone and waited. Nearly twenty minutes later, the world suddenly went gray and she found Homura's hand on her shoulder.
"She's coming," she said, before pointing into the distance, where Suzune could see the dark form of a magical girl mid-leap nearly a block away. "Are you ready?"
"Yes."
Homura reached under her shield and produced a wakizashi—probably a real one, knowing her.
Yes, sensei, it was real. I have quite the collection of mundane weapons now. Do you want to see… oh, I'm interrupting her story? I apologize. Please continue, Suzune.
Suzune winced as the knife slashed her belly and Homura paused. "You said you were ready."
"I am."
Homura sighed, sending the equally taciturn Suzune a frustrated look. "You can shut off pain by focusing on your soul gem."
"…Oh. I didn't know that." Suzune closed her eyes, reaching up and grabbing the cross hanging at her neck. After a moment, she sighed. "Now I'm ready."
Nodding, Homura went back to slashing and stabbing Suzune. Cuts across her forearms to look like defensive wounds. A cut across her breasts. A slice made to look like it hit her ribs and deflected off. A stab just below that, that missed anything vital but still punctured the stomach. More slashes and stabs across the back. A good slash across Suzune's face. And then, Homura swapped her sword for what looked like a tonfa or night stick and began beating Suzune about the face and every part of her exposed skin.
As she did that, Suzune swung her sword around and launched fiery attacks on the surroundings, the pair moving across the rooftop and spreading cuts and streaks of fire frozen in time. The rooftop quickly came to resemble the aftermath of a running battle between magical girls.
Before too long, Suzune was a mess of bruises and cuts. Eventually, Homura was satisfied and put away her weapon. "Heal the internal injuries first. …You do know how to do that?"
"Yes," Suzune confirmed. She concentrated on her human body and channeled magic, speeding the slow recovery up and patching up the worst of things. Of course, the healing process actually made the bruising look worse as they began to darken, which worked in their favor. Finally, they decided it was good enough. Homura got Suzune oriented on the other Hohzuki girls' location and let go.
Color returned to the world and Suzune ran as her flames hit the roof and exploded in places. Smoke and debris quickly rose into the air, coating Suzune in debris and the stink of burning roofing tar. She ignored it as she ran towards her goal. She spotted the other four girls waiting ahead of her and poured on the speed, relying on speed and stamina she had improved over the last months running her newspaper route to keep her ahead of Kagari.
When she reached the rooftop with the other girls, she slid to a stop, wavering on her feet. "She's coming—"
Suzune fell flat on her face and closed her eyes, pretending to be dead to the world—even going so far as to shut off her pain again so that wouldn't give her away.
I sent Suzune a smile as I continued to pet -my cat- Homura. Seriously, the girl was just like a damn cat some days. "Good work, Suzune. Both of you did good today. Did you pick up your things already or do we need to go back for them?"
"We got everything, sensei," Homura answered.
Suzune nodded, but I saw the way her eyes focused on Homura and the expression of longing on her face. "Something the matter, Suzune?"
"…Can I have a reward?"
"Absolutely. You deserve one. What do you want?"
Suzune pointed to where Homura was. "That."
"Fufufu," Homura chuckled. Reaching up, she stroked my jaw, fingers scratching through my beard briefly before she got up. "Is Mami in?"
"She's with Madoka."
Homura considered that briefly before nodding. "And Kyoko?"
"Gone to Asunaro. She said she should be back before eight and if she wasn't, to send a search party."
The girl nodded and her magical girl uniform flashed, leaving her in a set of street clothes—plain jeans, a tee shirt, and a dark purple hoodie. "I'll go start dinner, then." Wrinkling her nose, she said, "Suzune, before you avail yourself of sensei's attention, you should go take a bath. You smell like smoke."
I nodded. "Sorry, but she's right. I've been ignoring it, but it's pretty bad."
Suzune sniffed herself and wrinkled her nose as well. "Okay." Looking at me, she bit her lip and quietly asked, "Wash my back?"
Homura left with another quiet, "Ufufu," and I rolled my eyes at her. Standing up, I offered Suzune a hand. "You did a really good job, so if that's what you want—"
"It is," she agreed, accepting the hand up and hurrying towards the bathroom, pulling me along as she went.
I detoured long enough to grab a set of lounging clothes—a tee-shirt, clean boxers, and a set of shorts—before we went in. Suzune dropped her transformation and began stripping without an ounce of hesitation. I shrugged mentally and began following her example. I did notice the way her red eyes trailed over my form and her pale skin lit in a pretty blush as more and more of my body was exposed. I returned the favor, eyeing her own body up.
Suzune was of a height with the rest of the girls, but built smaller and a bit leaner than everyone but Kyoko, and even Kyoko had a larger chest. Suzune was muscular, with small curves, and a small chest—leaving her with a very athletic, sporty look that I liked. Though, to be fair, I liked Mami's plush, softer and less muscled/more fat look, Homura's somewhere in the middle look, and Kazuko's small but mature look to name someone outside of the teen magical girls. I had preferences, sure (and Homura came closest to matching them, if only she had a little more up top it would be a perfect match), but all of the magical girls I had met were beauties in their own right, or would be in a few more years.
Suzune carefully untied the bell charm from her hair, letting her long, white locks fall down about her and partially obscure her form. She put it up with her clothes and we made our way over to the rinsing/scrubbing area. I had Suzune sit down and we got down to washing off. Just before I turned the sprayer on her, she reached up and pulled off her cross-shaped soul gem, before slipping the necklace around my neck and hanging it off of me. With a nod, she turned around and waited.
I took my time lathering her up, exploring her body and giving her the positive attention she wanted—rubbing, massaging, and petting her all over. "I'm glad you weren't hurt. Homura, too. Kagari could have been a problem. Her powers are too dangerous to just let her wander around."
Suzune bit her lip and nodded, sighing quietly as I dug my thumbs into a particularly stiff muscle in her back. After a moment, she asked, "What if… I had her power?"
"I won't ask you to kill for me, Suzune."
The white haired girl—White hair, red eyes, that attitude… she's kind of like a rabbit, when you think about it. Suzune smiled brilliantly at that. "Thank you, sensei."
Humming quietly, I voiced the other option. "However… if Homura is forced to loop this timeline, her murder goes away. I won't ask you to do it, but if it means protecting all of you—and it does—then I'd gladly do the job myself. In fact, I'm probably going to ask for her soul gem and do just that later, just to make sure she can't come back and bite us. What I want to ask is, would you be willing to take on her powers? Can you hold two different powers? Make other weapons to hold more powers? How does your stuff work, Suzune?"
The girl shook her head. "I can only make one weapon, sensei. And I can only hold one power at a time. I… would very much like to keep Tsubaki's power, but if you ask me to, I would take on Kagari's if it would better keep you safe."
It seemed I was wrong about her power. Then again, the Suzune Magica story was never really clear on that, and there were instances of magical girls learning to advance their powers over time, or learning new ways to use them. So maybe it wasn't possible now, but it might be in the future. However, I had an issue at hand. Whether or not to use Kagari's soul gem to get Suzune a different power. Fire as an offensive power was great and pretty varied in its applications, from what I had seen. But of the two, Kagari's power was just plain OP as fuck for anti-magical girl combat. The only other one more ridiculous was Homura's.
At the end of the day, it was a no-brainer. If you didn't take a young girl's feelings into consideration. Or the potential repercussions of killing Kagari before the Hohzuki squad joined. Or the tests I was going to perform with Tsubaki's soul gem…
"It really would. But we can wait a little while on it."
Suzune nodded. "Thank you, sensei."
She turned around and I found my arms full of naked, soapy teen girl. Suzune's hands roamed over me as she straddled my waist. My cock was already at half mast, but a bit of wiggling of her ass in my lap had me rock hard a moment later. One of Suzune's arms went over my shoulder to pull my head down into a kiss, while her other arm went around my chest. I pulled her small, lithe body against my own as our lips met.
"Ah," Suzune sighed, brushing her chest against mine, her small breasts two soft spots against me with the hard points of her nipples in the center. Her soul gem, her very self, was pressed tightly between our bodies—a little cool spot that was quickly warming up at the shared contact. She shifted in my lap, grinding her slick cunt against my cock, her lips hot and leaking her arousal.
"This the reward you want?" I whispered against her lips.
Suzune nodded, her tongue slipping out to explore my mouth. "Mhmm."
Taking hold of her hips, I eased her up. She reached down with the hand around my chest, grabbed my cock, and lined me up. I lowered her back down and she shifted her hips a bit, before lowering herself the rest of the way. Her body resisted for just a moment, before her thin lips spread around the head of my dick. And then, I slid into her in one long, slow stroke as Suzune hilted me inside her. When I bottomed out, the head of my cock pressing firmly against her cervix and filling the very deepest parts of her body, Suzune let out a quiet moan.
Then, she began to rock back and forth. Holding her hips, I guided her into an easy pace, matching her rhythm from below. "That's it, Suzune. Nice and slow," I murmured into her ear, before attacking her neck with kisses and licks, sucking and nipping at her flesh.
"Ah! Sensei~" she whimpered, her hands clutching tightly around me as she slowly rode my cock. "Feels so good, all over."
"Mhmm," I nodded. Reaching between us with one hand, I cupped one of her small breasts. She let out a soft moan and, taking that as encouragement, I began squeezing and kneading it roughly, pinching and pulling away at her nipple.
"Mm! T-too hard," she whimpered, but her body arched and one of her hands came up to clutch mine to her tit even harder. Quietly, she whispered, "More."
I gave her more, abusing both of her tits in turn, my hands slipping and sliding over her soft, warm flesh with the slick soap on both of us. Suzune didn't last long before her first orgasm hit, clenching around me and squealing, her body shaking and her soapy hands sliding over my as she tried to hold onto something while I abused her little titties.
"Oh ho~. So that's what you like? Is little Suzune-chan a pain jockey, perhaps?"
"Nnn noo~," Suzune shook her head, still cumming in my lap as her hips jerked and her muscles went taut.
Reaching down with the hand not molesting her titties, I slapped her ass hard and pulled her into me. Suzune yelped, her body involuntarily clenching. "I think you are," I chuckled, before smacking her other cheek.
"Ahn~" she moaned, burying her face in my neck as her pussy clenched again and she began riding me harder. "M-more, sensei."
"Well, I can't say no when you beg me like that." Pulling her out of my lap, to a look of confusion from Suzune, I spun her around and bent her over, letting her use the side of the tub to rest her upper body on. Then, I slid back into her cunt with a sharp thrust and began fucking her hard and fast, smacking her ass with every slap of our bodies coming together. Suzune cried out with every slap, her body shaking from the force of my fucking her and her round little ass quickly turning pink and then red under my assault.
Watching my cock disappear into her cunt, I reached around with my free hand and began vigorously rubbing her clit, occasionally smacking it lightly in time with my smacks on her ass. Suzune came like that twice, crying and shaking as I pounded her through her orgasms, before I finally felt myself getting close. Reaching out, I grabbed her long hair and pulled her head back by it, forcing her body to bow back. Her ass shook and her little titties, as red as her ass from the mauling I had given them, were so small they almost didn't jiggle on her chest.
Reaching around with my other hand, I grabbed her throat and squeezed as I pounded into her harder. Suzune's beautiful red eyes rolled in her head, her body shaking and her cunt squeezing around me as she choked out a sob/grunt as she came. That sent me over the edge and went a final few thrusts before burying myself in her cunt and letting go, pressing the head of my cock against her cervix and grinding it in as I saw stars.
Finally, after what felt like entirely too long and too short at the same time, I sighed as my orgasm tapered off. I had to pick Suzune up because her body wouldn't hold her weight—she was still trembling so hard that she couldn't stand. I moved us back to the rinse area and rinsed us off with warm water, taking the time to tease her clit a bit more and get another small orgasm out of her that came with a little mewling cry as she pressed her back into my chest and just lay there and took it.
I slid my cock out of her and washed off the mess we had made, cleaned us both up, and got our towels. By the time she was mostly dry, Suzune had recovered enough to stand on her own and dry herself. The young girl was very affectionate and touchy-feely as she finished drying, constantly reaching out and touching me, or rubbing her body against mine. I let her, encouraged it even by petting her back and kissing her lips and neck.
The door to the bathroom opened and Kyoko stuck her head in. "Dinner's re—"
She froze as she saw us, her own red eyes—a darker, bloodier color than Suzune's—took us in as her mouth fell open. She stared for several minutes as her face began approaching the color of her hair. Finally, she muttered, "Dinner's ready," before turning around and walking away, leaving the bathroom door open.
Suzune frowned. Turning to me, she asked, "Did we do something wrong? She looked upset."
I shook my head. "No, Suzune. We're fine. Kyoko's just confused. Give her time, she'll get over it. Now, get your clothes on. Homura made us a nice meal, let's not keep her waiting."
"Yes, sensei."
I smacked her ass, drawing an 'eep!' from the girl, and laughed as I pulled my clothes on. She's going to be fun to play with. She tries to be so stoic, but get her warmed up and she's all lovey-dovey. She needs more affection. Girl's been neglected too long.
