Chapter Three: SISTERS OF THE YAKUZA

The gothic beauty stared down at the younger man who was clad in kevlar armor. She appeared lifeless as she raised her blade to the sky. "I call upon thou, flames of torment. Punish thy enemy with bitter vehemence, Blaze of Ifrit!"

A spark of pure energy shot out of the Muramasa, followed by a trail of flame.

The blast hit Naota square in the chest, sending him through both the living room and dining room walls. He landed with a massive thud on the grass of his backyard. He knew now that she was also a Pagan sorceress, meaning he was borderline out of luck and just plain screwed.

"Naota Nandaba, it would be in your best interest to stand down."

Underneath that thick armor, the boy shook with rage. "I don't care who or what you are, I'll kill you, for Eri!"

Ayeka Kanako Mishima had a look of unadultrated rage on her face, as if she were Satan incarnate. "This is a waste of my time!" She withdrew her wakizashi and slashed at Naota's chest with her black, polished fingernails. Because of her unknown, unnatural strength, she cut through his armor, even leaving a gaping claw mark on his chest.

"What the hell was that?" Naota asked, struck with a new found fear. He tried to assure himself it wasn't real.

His time to ponder was cut short when the crazed woman delivered a massive round house kick to the side of his neck, catapulting him through the house and on to the street in front of it. Needless to say, he wasn't conscious.

Not too much later, the Yakuza mistress stood above his seemingly lifeless body. She hoisted him over her shoulders with ease and took him back inside the house.

Eri sat on Naota's lower bunk, contemplating the situation. Though the odds seemed grim, she hoped he would be okay.

Seconds later, Ayeka entered the room, Naota hoisted on her shoulders.

"Naota-kun!" Eri screamed, paling in the face from shock.

"He will live."

"What did you just say?"

"His life is not threatened, Eri-kun."

The younger woman sighed relief, but not for long. "Did you just call me Eri... Kun?!!!"

The older woman smiled before puling the Ninamori girl into a warm embrace. "There are so many details that must be revealed to you."

"Kay..." She wasn't comfortable, to say the least.

"Let us return to base. All will be revealed there."

At the base, in a room only lit by a black candle, Ayeka laid Naota's limp body on a white canopy bed. Eri sat next to him, caressing his now unmasked face as he slept.

"How long have you two been intimate?" There was a genuine smile on the dark girl's face, something that hasn't been seen for a long time.

Eri blushed, though her face turned cross mere seconds later. "I believe you owe me an explanation before I answer you question!"

Ayeka giggled. "Very well."

((((( Flashback: Nearly twenty years ago )))))

A middle aged man with grey hair and black eyes, dressed in a lab coat, approached what appeared to be a woman in a hospital gown. She appeared to be an older Eri. A man sat by her side. He stood about 5-feet-9, had purple hair and brown eyes, and was clad in a grey business suit and green tie.

The doctor, Kurogasa, spoke. "Mister and Misses Ninamori, I'm afraid your daughter was born quite prematurely, and will most definitely die before sunrise tomorrow."

"Oh God, Shinobu!" Sakura cried.

"Why god?" Shinobu scowled.

"However, there just maybe hope."

"We don't care, just do whatever needs to be done!" Shinobu demanded.

"Well, I should warn you... It's a procedure that is in the experimental stage, and it's VERY expensive."

"WE DON'T CARE!!"

The next morning, they found out the experiment was a success.

"What shall we name her, Shinobu?"

He appeared to be deep in though. "I don't know... Perhaps Ayeka Kanako Ninamori?"

Sakura smiled. "That's a wonderful name!"

((((( Present )))))

Ayeka sobbed lightly. "I was injected with Atomsk's DNA, giving me powers far beyond human comprehension. However, they couldn't afford it, so they had to borrow money from the Yakuza."

After four years, she had become unusually developed. Her body was comparable to that of a 16 year old, and already had a small grasp of the magic of Atomsk. When the Yakuza come to collect their payment...

((((( Flashback: Nearly sixteen years ago )))))

A ninja-like figure was cupping a feel of the overly developed Ayeka. "Since you cannot afford to pay us back, I guess we have no choice to take her with us. I'm sure she'll make for a fine prostitute!"

"How dare you!" Shinobu growled.

"How about I take your life instead?

The male Ninamori trembled in fear. He didn't want to die. "Fine, take her," the mayor of Mabase replied in a zombie-like tone.

"Shinobu, how could you?" Sakura asked, disgusted by her husband's decision.

"Daddy? Daddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed as the ninja hauled as with her in his arms.

He regretted his decision, but there was nothing he could do.

((((( Present )))))

"Why doesn't daddy love me any more?" Ayeka was crying out what was about 15 years worth of tears.

"If you really are my sister, why make me a prostitute?" Eri scolded her older sister. "Why punish me instead of that bastard father of ours!"

The Yakuza mistress sniffled, wiping her tears. "I had to. If the headmaster knew I was being soft, I would be executed. They don't care about family ties, Eri. They only care about murdering and money!"

The younger of the Ninamori sisters protested. "But you have the power of Atomsk! Surely you can stand up to this headmaster!"

"You flatter me." Misstress Ayeka shook her head. "He taught me everything I know. He can read me like an open book. Though I may have the strength advantage, his skills are second to none."

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh."

Eri and Ayeka turned their heads to see Naota yawing after his awakening.

"Naota-kun!" The younger of the Ninamori sisters launched herself at the young boy, hugging him for all he's worth. "I missed you so much!"

He smiled, but that smile faded when he set his gaze on Ayeka Kanako Mishima. "Why didn't you kill me?" He was now an emotionless beast, ready to feast on blood. "I feel dishonored, and ultimately think you should die for this. Afterwards, I'll sodomize you with my meathook and nut inside your rectum." His eyes were glowing red, for whatever reason.

Though both sisters were shocked to hear this, they were somehow aroused by this.

"I'll leave you two alone now." Ayeka stepped out of the room, beaming for the first time in many years.

"Naota, we need to talk..." Indeed, there was much to be discussed.
