Hello everyone. It's been a while. I have been busy with a lot of stuff since the last update and I'm very glad that I could work on this fic.
We are celebrating the second year of this fic and I can't believe that we have reached 487 favorites. 24 more than last time but I can barely believe the number of followers. 514. 30 more and we are past the 500 followers. This is the first fic to reach that number. Thank you all.
Again, for the new ones reading this, I have two other Sekirei fics, IS and Sekirei Brave New World and A Devil's Flock.
If you like this fic, I think you would like these ones.
90 reviews mean 7 more.
But that's enough about the numbers. Today, we are having a longer chapter plus, a new winging of a woman that we all like very much in terms of body.
Tsukiumi. Our Waterdere might come to face thunder, lightning, and ice.
Now onto the guest reviews.
Curt on the 21st of March. I am happy that you weren't expecting it. I hope this lives up to expectations.
Guest on the 2nd of April. Thanks again for reading this and I am glad that you are impressed. The whole group needs Minato to lead this. I hope you come to enjoy this chapter.
Brody on the 16th of April. Tsukiumi will come over yes but Yahan can take some time. About this update, well, the notifications went down a while ago. For all those reading, switch to Gmail. That seemed to have worked for me.
Sama on the 20th of May (my time). Yes, you are correct. The update has come through now.

Minato woke up, completely refreshed. His head laid on Kazehana's stomach while her hands gently assaulted his scalp. His head turned to see her glorious breasts. It was hard to believe that a woman as beautiful would fall in love with him.
Not that he complained. He loved Kazehana. Just like he loved every last one of his Flock.
Speaking about them, two spectacular specimens of his Flock lay on his body. Matsu had made herself at home at his left shoulder while his hand was groping her soft tits. She was drooling a bit. He forgot how beautiful she was without her glasses. Her braids were out. Minato had to ask her to let her hair down more.
Meanwhile, his other arm was taken by Uzume. Her arms were wrapped around his right arm while she also pressed his hand against her flat stomach. His mind was glad on that but there was another mood.
While he had his mind off the fact that he had one hell of a night, he felt that his dream was spooking through his head.
Water, blond hair, and flashing panties. He could think about that later.
Minato felt that nature called and with the night that lasted, Minato was flaccid. He hoped that the other girls could accept the fact that he was not ready to give them one hell of a night.
But he wanted to piss now. So his eyes turned to the girls closest to him.
"Good morning, Matsu." Kissing his genius on the lips, Matsu stirred as she felt her energy filling in. Her wings that opened caused Kazehana and Uzume to open their eyes.
They looked at Minato who was locked with Matsu.
"Hey, let him go." Matsu obeyed the order as Uzume flung herself on Minato. The Veiled Sekirei felt so soft while Minato got a handful. Kazehana cooed as she watched Uzume kissing Minato. She had hoped that Uzume would smile again. Minato just let Uzume have her fun until she needed to breathe.
"Good morning, stud."
"Morning, Uzume. Slept well?"
Before she could answer, a sensual voice gave the answer that all three agreed on.
"You sent us into multiple orgasms induced sleep. I have to say we should do this more often." Kazehana wrapped her arms around his head while they kissed as Minato remained standing while he was not disturbed by the naked bodies while he enjoyed the feeling. When a string of saliva was the only thing that connected them, Kazehana looked into his eyes.
"We should drag more girls in this."
Minato sighed as he stood up. The girls could see the effect of the night.
"I wouldn't mind but we would save it for special occasions. Three of you is something I can handle for normal fun." It didn't occur to any of them that what he said was unbelievable.
"And you have to make sure that the girls agree to it. Respect their boundaries." Minato said as he walked over to the toilet.
"And what about yours?" Uzume teased while Minato grinned.
"As I said. Three for normal cases." And with that, he closed the door while the girls remained looking at him.
"You can say what you want but he is something else," Matsu admitted. When she wanted to stand, she noticed that her legs were giving out.
"I hope you girls can walk. Because I think that this wasn't such a good idea."

Minato found that working out would be a good idea. Especially because he was assigned to carry Matsu. Luckily, he found that she was easy enough to carry while they walked back to the Inn.
"So any plans for today?" Kazehana teased while Minato enjoyed the soft legs in his hands and the large breasts pressing on his back.
"School," Minato answered.
That was all he said as he walked back into the Inn.
"We are back." He shouted as he saw more members of his Flock gathered around the Entrance.
Kusano, Hibiki, Hikari and Yume were all waiting for him.
"Welcome back."
The girls would say that he could easily maneuver around as he kissed Kusano on her lips while the older Sekirei waited for their turn.
"Welcome back, onii-chan. Did you have fun last night?" He gulped as he heard Kusano talk.
A soft giggle caused the Flock to make way for Miya.
"That is not something you should ask, Kuu-chan." Shooting a grateful look to Miya, Minato got back on his legs as he looked at her.
"Hey."
"Hello yourself." The Pillar pressed a kiss on his lips as she enjoyed the feeling of Minato. When they let go, she looked at her Ashikabi
"I take that you should put poor Matsu in her bed before you come back down."
"It's kinda a smash and dash. Class starts in an hour." Luckily, that didn't mean that the girls were left wanting.
At least, the ones who were in the hallway. Hibiki, Hikari, and Yume all got quick kisses as he raced the door out.
Yume thought about how she found it weird that they all shared an Ashikabi who was Minato. Yet, she felt that nothing was wrong. Looking over to Hikari and Hibiki, they made good plans to go out and visit the pool.
They should probably find a decent date.
At the university, Minato didn't have an issue with following the classes and the information that he picked up.
Yet, the dream kept playing in his head. On his computer, he sent a message to Matsu.
'Matsu, keep this in mind. I had a dream. Remember a few things. Water and blond hair. Talk at home.'
The one who made it possible to connect your smartphone to your pc should get a Nobel Prize.

"So you had that dream last night." With so many in the house, Miya had made shifts. At the table, Minato, Matsu, Kagari, Yume, Kusano, Tsukiumi, and Yukari were seated.
Just like her brother, Yukari had a day at school and she had enjoyed it.
Especially after her night with Shiina and Musubi.
Speaking of the two, they, together with the twins, Uzume, Kazehana, and Karasuba would eat later.
"Naughty dream, onii-chan?" Feeling the dread coming from behind, the younger Sahashi turned to Miya.
The mask caused the intended effect of scaring the crap out of Yukari.
"Yukari-chan, please keep in mind when you talk about those things when Kusano is present."
"Yes, sorry. Miya, I totally forgot." Letting the mask go, Miya relaxed while Matsu piped in.
"That might be the dream of a Sekirei. It's astonishing that you had one now." The words were understood by the ones in the room.
Minato had winged nearly a dozen Sekirei and the only one that he had dreamt of was Kusano.
"Yeah, I'm sorry that I didn't give you much to go on."
Matsu shook her head when she heard the lines.
"Don't worry about it though. That was enough for me to figure it out." With a flirtatious wink, she goaded Minato.
"Come see me in my room when we are done eating. I already figured out who is reacting to you."
Scene skip
Minato was seated in Matsu's room. It wasn't right after eating that he could have come to see her.
He had to entertain Kusano, and after she went to bed, he had to study. During those, he talked with Yume and Karasuba. The Black Sekirei had slowly begun to get out of her grumpy mood and after that, he talked with the twins about their idea of a date.
They weren't displeased by the fact that he asked for some time in between. On the contrary, they could use that time to go swimsuit shopping.
Next weekend, they could have fun again and if Minato was honest, he could look forward to seeing them and Akitsu, all dolled up.
"So this dream, you had that last night. I did some digging and I think I know who you dream of."
Minato's mouth slowly dropped open when he saw a beautiful woman on Matsu's screens.
Wavy long blond hair, with blue eyes, reminded Minato of Miya when she was scary. A black dress with a white underdress that showed enough of her body. Brown boots finished the outfit. Minato had kept quiet about the last outfit and that was her panties flashing.
"You recognize her."
"Not that. It's just that I recognize a lot of her. Who is she?" Minato asked. Before Matsu could answer, the door slid open and their heads turned to see Kazehana, Karasuba, and Yume.
"Sekirei Number 09. Tsukiumi. I have to admit, Minato. You certainly attract the weird ones." Karasuba had a dry tone about it which caused Kazehana to glare at her former squadmate.
"Birds of a feather flock together," Yume commented which caused all present to cringe at the pun.
"Bad pun, Yume. You know this chick?" Minato asked the four Sekirei in Matsu's room.
"Yes, I had the pleasure of knowing her. Tsukiumi is one of the youngest Single Numbers. We all have our quirks. This lady, on the other hand." Kazehana answered.
Minato kept quiet and wanted to hear more.
"She is a bit touched. Her adjuster filled her head with some pretty messed up ideas."
Minato crossed his arms as he leaned back.
"What ideas?" He asked as he wanted answers.
"Things you have done to us, darling." Yume lifted herself up in the room.
That broke the tough guy and gave back the schoolboy that he was.
"But she thinks she has to do these things. You took us all as women with our consent. Everything you did to us, we wanted." Kazehana kissed her Ashikabi's cheek as she sat closer to him.
"And she thinks she has to do these things, out of being forced instead of voluntary means?" Minato asked.
"Indeed. It filled her with an intense hatred of Ashikabi. She swore that she would kill an Ashikabi that reacted to her." Minato shuddered a bit until he realized that he got his own Sekirei.
"Well, we can't have that. We should come up with a plan for that." Minato answered.
"Yes. The good thing is that you got our Yuki Ona." Minato raised an eyebrow at Karasuba's remark.
"Tsukiumi's element is water. Akitsu can freeze that." Matsu clarified.
"Plus, water is a conduit for electricity. The Thunder Twins can help you out on that." Kazehana added. Minato stretched out his arms.
"Well, that solves one issue. If you girls don't mind, I have had a day. I am going to bed." After kissing them all, Minato went back to his room. Inside, he was greeted by Miya. It was clear that the Pillar wanted to establish dominance over the others.
"Another Sekirei you are reacting to?" His first Sekirei teased her Ashikabi. Minato didn't want to answer immediately. He was tired enough.
Minato undressed into his pajamas as he wanted to sleep. Lying next to her, he pulled Miya closer to him.
"Don't blame me. I wish that I could keep it down. But that is enough for one night. Let's catch some sleep. I have classes tomorrow."
Miya couldn't argue with that. Her house that had been desolate and empty had been filled again with life.
Even if it was a bit too much.
And it was thanks to Minato.
Scene skip
Kazehana had many things that she enjoyed doing. While one of those was one of the most recent activities, fucking Minato silly, now, she could do other things to focus on.
She knew that there were other things to do now. And while she would have no issue listening to her Ashikabi, there were also others that she obeyed. That was Miya. With the fact that they had made an enemy out of the East and MBI, things could be hairy. Hence why she had another job.
To spy on Yukari.
Now, Kazehana thought about it, they didn't have much with their sister-in-law. Besides the teasing of the first night, the Flock had been respectful with Yukari.
While humans would have found it revolting, love wasn't something that you could choose. And Yukari didn't have just lust for Minato.
There was love, as strong as the mountains, that the younger Sahashi had for her brother. There was nothing that could be done about that.
While Yukari occupied herself with her two Sekirei, there was something that felt a longing for Minato.
Kazehana would go after Yukari. After she was done with drinking an entire bar empty. Uzume had tagged along and had guided them to the host club where Kagari worked. It was all too easy to watch their housemate while the two were busy teasing the man.
"So Kagari. Any luck on finding your Ashikabi?" Uzume swore that she heard the Flame Sekirei growl.
"And why don't we see you so often around the house? I can assure you that." Kazehana got cut off by Kagari who had been begging her about it.
"I don't want to hear it!" He bit the Wind Flower off. He really didn't.
Kagari didn't have much fun as before and the fact that the Inn had hormones seeping out, caused him to stay away from the house.
It wasn't their fault that they had hopped into bed with Minato but it did cause him to really notice the Ashikabi.
He hadn't expected that an Ashikabi could wing as many as ten Sekirei. But yet, Minato did just that and managed to keep nine of them sexually satisfied.
And it really caused Kagari to curse when he came around the Ashikabi. It wasn't Minato's fault. No, it came due to the assholes in MBI and his own damned body that caused him to change his body, depending on the Ashikabi to who he reacted.
A part of him was grateful that he still carried his most valuable possession. Only problem was that there was something growing underneath that.
And despite the fact that his sister had been living with them, Kagari couldn't say that he felt the same for Yukari as he did for Minato.
"Still, I can assure you that if you."
"I don't want to hear it. I don't want to know it." Kagari was getting more desperate. Meanwhile, neither Uzume nor Kazehana wanted to stop teasing their poor housemate.
"Oh, really?" They kept flashing him which also caused him to notice that even more.
God, for once, he wished that Takami came around. It had been weeks since he last saw her. She had been busy while she was watching over her children that had been dragged into this game.
"Come on. What do you have to lose?"
He was about to cry when Kazehana gave him a bigger peek than he wanted. He wanted nothing more than pin one down and dump his load. Yet, he knew that it couldn't be done. But he had enough of this.
So he turned on his heel.
"Think we pushed him too far?" Uzume asked her drinking buddy who slammed down another glass of sake.
The amount of booze that both had taken in would have caused most humans to get alcohol poisoning. Yet, for the two of them, it had caused them to be slightly tipsy.
"He needs to realize that not all of us get a choice," Kazehana answered as she put her glass down.
"Yeah, but we had that choice. He didn't."
"Even if you let that out, Uzume-chan, I don't regret Minato as Ashikabi."
"Neither do I but nee-san. We are women and we both know that Minato only swings one way." They both knew the effects of Minato's lovemaking.
"And with Kagari's body, I think that he'll see some changes." But there were limits to what she could do.
She and her drinking friend had to get out. Slamming her glass down, Kazehana stood up as she wanted to take a bottle with her. Until the Wind Flower reminded herself of the task that she had to take care of.
"Sorry, Uzume. Got an errand to run."
Kazehana remembered that she asked/teased Miya to join in the fun but found herself cut off for all the effort. While Miya understood, she wanted to keep Minato for herself when she could.
The fact of knowing that Minato had ten sexual partners was one thing, joining in the debauchery was a different thing.
And like Akitsu, she wanted to keep boundaries. So for punishment, Kazehana had to look after Yukari. It was all too easy to spy from above. But first, she would need to find her sister-in-law.
"It's been to see you that worked up. Want me to tag along?" Pondering at Uzume's request, it would be more fun.
"Let's find a few bottles and get to that." Kagari was very happy that they left. Five bottles of sake could be easy enough replaced.
His own sexual tension would not be that easy. He looked down and he just knew that his balls would be purple. He really needed release.
And he would be damned if he would go to Minato for that. The moans drove him up a wall but they would prove to be a very good material to beat his meat to.
Scene skip
Yukari couldn't shake the feeling that there were friendly eyes on her. She wanted to know but she couldn't see from where.
She, like her brother, had to focus on school. Oh, God. She had wanted to forget about her brother. While her mind had been blown to pieces by heaven, (Musubi's tits and Shiina's dick), she wanted Minato.
It was all too annoying. She loved Minato. It wasn't hard for that.
She became twenty years old and still as much a bro-con as she was when she was five. And while their family had grown, the warm fuzzy feeling of Minato didn't leave. When she was around him, got lifted up by a hug, a tap on the shoulders, or a ruffle of her hair. Every time, it made her fuzzy.
Not wet. It wasn't just lust that she felt for Minato. No, she had a love for her brother. Not the normal love that a sister felt for her brother. No, love of a woman for a man.
And the fact that he was married to a dozen aliens didn't change a single thing.
In fact, Yukari would argue that it made things easier.
She leaned her head back while she followed the class as the teacher continued to talk.
Maybe she should talk with Matsu, Uzume and Kazehana.
They had figured out rather quickly that Yukari was in love with Minato.
And from afar, Kazehana and Uzume were watching their sister-in-law. Both had shared thoughts of playing again with Yukari in the bath when they could. Some light teasing had set in as both sex bombs enjoyed the feeling.
With ten Sekirei, they would need release. And despite the fact that they had intercourse two days ago, it wasn't enough with libidos like theirs.
Meanwhile, Minato could feel something in the back of his neck. Was this ASMR that he heard so much about? At least, it was better than the videos. What some idiots got off on, he wondered.
Scene skip
Sure, they could get a sister-wife to make them swimsuits.
But where would the fun in that be?
So that was why Hikari, Hibiki, Akitsu, and Yume all made a trip to the mall to buy a swimsuit. They could surprise their Ashikabi.
"I hope you girls don't intend to have fun with our Ashikabi in the swimming pool."
Hikari rolled her eyes when she heard Yume talk about it.
They had changed into casual wear. A black shirt and mini shorts for Hikari and Hibiki. Akitsu had chosen a white shirt that was rolled up and jeans that would make any guy bore eyes in her ass.
Yume had taken up another attire. A long dress in black that worked well with her.
"Don't worry. When we do that, we'll drag you in." Yume sighed when she heard them talk. The big tit trio really weren't good advice. Although, Yume would say that she would need some fun as well.
Plus, there was also that Sekirei that Minato dreamt of.
If things worked out, Minato would wing up all Single Numbers in the Sekirei plan, save for Mutsu.
Kagari was also still out but it wouldn't take long though. Plus, Numbers 10, 11, and 12.
"That is so not what I am worried about, Hikari." Hibiki and Akitsu just watched the spectacle. Despite how different Akitsu was from her sister, the younger Thunder Twin liked the Yuki Ona.
"This won't go well?"
"No, it will not." Hikari grinned as she gave Akitsu a wayside hug. She could feel how tense Akitsu was.
"Hey, we're all friends here. Nothing bad. Okay?" Akitsu nodded as they ended up at the place. There were many couples buying them but it was clear how the girls were looking.
"Do you girls have any ideas on what you want?"
Hikari and Hibiki just stormed off to the bikinis. Yume trusted Hibiki enough that they would keep it classy.
Turning to Akitsu, she got an idea in her mind. Despite how she acted, Akitsu wasn't shy. The furthest thing from it.
She could be very bold.
"Do you want some help?"
Yume knew that a sports one-piece would be her choice. And that white with grey streaks would be the perfect one for her. It would show enough skin without being too slutty.
Akitsu's eyes found something that Yume found fitting for her. It seemed that links would be a part of her that would never leave her.
"Can we try this on?"
Yume found the changing rooms and when she had her own, she just went along with it.
When she walked out, it fitted the Sekirei of Fate well. The Ice Sekirei also rocked her outfit.
"Well, aren't you a sight to behold?"
Yume raised an eyebrow when she watched the twins. They were also very good at the swimsuits that they chose.
"Is Mum happy with our choice? I hope that you don't mind." Hikari bit to Yume who just grinned.
"I would say that you have a very good choice of the outfit. But did you have to stay in theme? The same one despite the size."
The twins shared a look and they shrugged when they watched Yume.
"It's just how we feel most comfortable. It wouldn't be just our Ashikabi being there."
Yume sighed when she heard that. One guy with four beauties like them. Yume prayed that Minato was right to protect himself from the glares that would undeniably come their way.
They wondered if Minato would mind if they had their "date" outside.
Scene skip
Minato had been sleeping. They had taken turns of bedmates While he had no issue with Sekirei in his bed (it would be incredibly ironic if he did), he did keep it to a minimum like his lovemaking.
He promised the Sekirei he would buy a bed to make sure that he could sleep in with all of his Sekirei.
This night, it was Matsu, Kazehana, Uzume and Akitsu. She claimed it to be comfortable around her sister-wives.
Luckily, all had taken up clothes. Matsu wore a nightgown that was pink. Uzume had grabbed a shirt of him that was too big. Briefly, he wondered why she did that. Kazehana had grabbed a normal pajama while Akitsu slept in a frilly shirt. She claimed it was for her heat.
All four of her partners had taken that as normal. Blankets would be light as they had been laying around him. Matsu and Kazehana had slept on his shoulders while Uzume and Akitsu took up his legs. Despite the fact that he couldn't move an inch, Minato felt comfortable.
But that began to change as his dreams were taken shape. In his head, he began to see the woman take shape.
Minato was standing on a dark float. He had no clue what was up or down. He would have been scared of it were not for the matter
His mouth dropped open when Minato laid eyes on Tsukiumi. She was gorgeous. She had a great figure that shined through her clothes. Her long blond hair was waving behind her. Minato couldn't help but blush when he saw Tsukiumi this close to him.
Even if this was a dream.
"Ah, so the Vile Monkey finds himself in my dreams." Her voice was strong and elegant and it was clear that was also in Old English.
"Vile Monkey. I take you're talking about me." Minato asked while the woman was glaring at him.
"Indeed. Thou hast invaded my dreams. Tell me, what dost thou wish to me?" Minato tried to step back.
"Eh, I wish nothing. I will ask you something. Are you reacting to me or not?" The woman glared back at him.
Unleashing a powerful blast of water, Minato braced for impact. He was dragged up in the sky. Landing, he could feel the pain in his system.
"Is this a dream?"
"Do not worry." The woman had landed next to him. Raising her arm, Tsukiumi wanted to end him.
"I will make sure this won't hurt." His eyes flung open and he wanted to sit up.
The four women in his bed also woke up as they turned to Minato. He was taking deep breaths to avoid hyperventilating.
The door was flung open and the rest of his Flock stormed into the room. Kusano was the first to fling herself on Minato as her small frame made it excellent for hugging.
"Onii-chan, did you have a bad dream?" Stroking her hair, Minato hoped to calm himself down.
"Yeah, I did." The rest of his Flock got himself around him while Minato tried to collect himself.
"Nii-chan, are you okay?" His head turned to Yukari. She was leaning at the doorframe. She tried to act cool but her face was filled with worry for her brother.
"Did I wake you up as well?"
"Your screams could have raised the dead, Minato." Karasuba would often joke. This time, she did not partake in that, however.
"What did you dream of, Minato?" Yume asked.
"Tsukiumi." When he collected his thoughts, he looked at the women in his room.
"For those out of the loop, she is a Sekirei that is reacting to me. But it's clear that she doesn't like Ashikabi. She tried to murder me." Minato answered.
"Well, that settles it. Until the situation with this Tsukiumi is resolved, you are not going anywhere without your Sekirei." Miya's words were taken as gospel.
Her eyes zoned into Yukari.
"And the same goes for you, young lady."
Yukari didn't protest against Miya. She went back to her room.
And the need for a good bed where all Sekirei could sleep comfortably became so much more important.
Scene skip
The weekend couldn't have come fast enough. Minato and Yukari both had to occupy themselves with their studies while also loving their Sekirei.
Plus, Minato had to wonder about the Ashikabi that wanted to join his group as fighters. When he, Mikogami, and Nishi both had five Ashikabi's who pledged their loyalty to them, they would come together.
So when Minato heard from them what the twins, Akitsu and Yume had planned, he gratefully took the idea of getting out.
As luck would have it, the weather would warm up and they could have a day outside.
It would be a great fun party for them.
There were several pools, they could sunbathe and there were slides to have fun.
And while all had seen their Ashikabi naked, there was an appeal to see him in a swim short. They would have to be somewhat naked.
On the tube ride there, they would enjoy their day there. They chatted about everything and nothing. Hikari had gotten Minato to sit between her and her sister.
They were pleasantly squashed into a two-seat.
"So any reason why you wanted to be on this pool?"
"There will be a lot to do. And the weather is looking awesome." Yume answered. Looking back at the twins, they were also happy.
"Akitsu-chan, what about you?"
"I want to have fun. With you." Looking at Hibiki, she shared a look.
"I thought of it as a nice way to bond." Minato could see why she would think so.
"You do know that this means that we will not have any mature fun." The four women nodded to him.
"No worries, I am kind of hoping to have fun with my Ashikabi. Besides, it wasn't that long ago. I can hold off for a bit."
Hikari pecked him on the cheek.
"It's kind of you to think of our needs, Minato. But we want something else."
"Besides, some extra fun stuff is something we want." Hibiki backed up her sister. Turning to the older Sekirei, Yume gave a wistful smile.
"I will say that I have much love for my sisters. But as for myself, I feel exhausted by their antics. While Miya is someone who keeps the Flock to a degree, Matsu, Uzume, and Kazehana, think of intercourse a bit too much, Kara-chan and Mu-chan think of fighting a bit too much and Shii-chan and Kuu-chan are too much of children. I come to find the Thunder Twins and Akitsu refreshing." Minato found that she was right.
"Still, I am glad you had this date. Otherwise, I would have been locked inside." Yume smirked when she heard that.
Because of the arrangement, the Sahashi siblings were assigned Sekirei. While her two Sekirei were strong, compared to a Single Number, Musubi and Shiina were too immature. Hence why Kazehana, Uzume, or Akitsu often joined them to watch over Yukari.
Minato also had Karasuba and Kusano watching over him. They were worried for their Ashikabi.
But Tsukiumi had shown up in more dreams of him.
Minato didn't wake up as shaken as the first night but it was no reason to relax their standards. Either Tsukiumi joined their Peerage willingly or the Flock would kill her.
They could understand that she had a misconception about what she had to do as Sekirei but none of his girls took kindly to the fact that Minato was being threatened by Tsukiumi.
"Indeed. And well, it was good that I would come along."
"You think that we aren't strong enough for that watery tart?" Hibiki asked in a defiant fashion.
"Strong, you are. Experienced, you are not. She might be the last of the Single Numbers. Believe me. There is a drop-off." It wasn't meant as an insult but as a warning.
"Let's forget about her for a day. We are at the place." Minato announced.
His Sekirei could agree with that.
If one of them had paid attention, they would have noticed that Tsukiumi had followed the party.
"So you came to my terrain? The arrogance of monkey-like thyself. It'll be easy." She turned back. She would wait until her prey would show itself again.
Scene skip
Minato was the first to be outside and in the pool. It was clear they weren't the only ones who thought of having a day at the pool. Luckily, the place was large enough that there was overcrowding.
The price bump might also have something to do with the fact that there was enough water and not that many people.
The sun on his skin felt awesome and he looked down on his body. For some reason, he had slowly begun to grow out of a swimmer's body. Lean and fit. Not overly jacked but without too much fat on him.
"Good to see you are out already." Turning his head, he found the four Sekirei.
"What do you think, Minato?" Yume had taken a sports swimsuit that fitted her form very well. Subtle and yet, all so sexy in the same way.
"I feel a bit weird wearing this." Akitsu's had a white two-piece with strings between her top and bottom. It showed enough of her snow-white skin.
"We decided to stay in theme." Hikari and Hibiki had taken black bikinis. The more buxom one of the two had enough cleavage hanging out while the slender one had no problem looking with her body out.
"You girls make me feel underdressed," Minato admitted as his eyes wandered over their perfect figures.
"Well, let's make sure that you have fun between that," Yume announced as she dragged Minato along. It was relaxing to swim, Minato would admit that.
Before long, he was joined by the girls around him. Akitsu proved to be an excellent swimmer who could keep up with him and Yume. The twins would first take a sunbath before they even thought of taking a plunge.
Not that Minato minded. He had always enjoyed the water and while it had been a while, swimming was one of his favorite hobbies as a child.
There were also slides to get into and wave baths. The sun began to rise higher and noon came around.
"I think we should get something to eat." Getting out of the water, Minato admired how Akitsu and Yume had been getting along. The Ice Queen really was brought out of her shell by Yume.
"You are right. And on a pool, you need to have yakisoba." He found Hikari and Hibiki who handed him a cold drink.
"We can also use some food."
Finding a table for five wasn't an easy feat and after some badgering, they decided to stay with three on the table. Just for good measure.
Hikari and Yume went for the food while Akitsu, Minato, and Hibiki stayed in their seats.
"It is really getting hot." Akitsu really wasn't used to the heat.
"You're telling me," Hibiki added.
"Girls, no complaining. We're at the pool, things are quiet and we got an afternoon of fun. What else do we need?"
"Finally, thou file monkey." Minato decided then and there that he would never goad Murphy again.
Turning their heads, they were greeted by the sight of Tsukiumi. Just like Minato remembered in his dream and what the girls saw in the pictures.
"I have you now." Minato couldn't help but smile when he heard that.
That was a line he never expected to hear.
Especially not from a woman like her.
"Today, thou will fall. By my hand." Immediately, all three got up. Akitsu and Hikari also joined them. There was a slight groan as they noticed who their friends were focused on.
They couldn't have a quiet lunch.
"Tsukiumi. Can I ask you not to? I am not a threat to you." Minato asked as he walked to her.
The sane people began to back away from the fight that was going to happen.
"Silence. Thou hast invaded my dreams. Therefore, thy shalt be punished for it. Water celebration." Aiming her water to Minato, the Ashikabi braced for impact. Before it could even hurt him, it was frozen.
Akitsu stood between her and Minato.
"Don't hurt my Ashikabi." The Yuki Ona's face had now another emotion than her usual ice mask. A calm fury betrayed through her face.
"Number 7. I presumed that thou couldn't be winged. Yet, thou appear before me. Has this vile monkey sinken their teeth into thee?"
Akitsu had no clue what Tsukiumi was really saying but she found that she was insulting her Ashikabi. So she did the most logical thing. Akitsu shot some icicles at Tsukiumi who blocked the projectiles.
"I'll take that as yes."
The other Sekirei joined Minato. The Ashikabi realized that violence was the only way to get through Tsukiumi.
"Minato, if I might suggest?" Minato nodded to Yume.
"Let Akitsu protect you. Hikari, Hibiki. You give that woman hell with your lightning. I'll get in close. But first."
Pressing her lips on Minato's lips, Minato felt her repeating her Norito.
"Fate of my Ashikabi, I will dream of a better one," Yume shouted as she felt power running through her.
She jumped up and Tsukiumi's focus shifted to her.
"Yume. Art thou also smitten by that Ashikabi?" Glancing at Minato, she saw him kissing the twins. Hikari first and then followed Hibiki.
"We're the pledged thunderclap. No disaster will hit our Ashikabi!"
"Not just me. Tsukiumi. You are reacting to Minato. How much you wish to deny it. He is your Ashikabi." Yume hoped that they could stop Tsukiumi without having to fight.
"Blasphemy. I wish not to lower myself to such a creature." Yume made a sad sigh when she heard that line.
"Very well." Using her blasts would have caused Tsukiumi to die. And while she was close, she hadn't made such an attempt just yet. So Yume decided to get closer to Tsukiumi who wanted to build distance.
Of course, such a thing would have been easy if lightning wouldn't been coming her way.
The Twins had gotten closer to Tsukiumi but peppered her with lightning. Retaliating wouldn't be possible as Tsukiumi had to focus on Yume who was just trying to get closer to her.
She could barely dodge the attacks of the single number, let alone the ones from Hikari and Hibiki.
But why would she waste her time on them if the Ashikabi was why she was here?
"Water Dragon." A giant dragon, made of liquid, was aimed at Minato. Before it could even get close, it had been frozen by Akitsu.
Tsukiumi really had the worst luck as the Ice wielder wasn't focused on the fight but purely focused on defending her Ashikabi.
Then she felt a shock. Attacking Minato, gave Hikari and Hibiki the right amount of time to light up their foe.
"Darn it. I should have prepared this better." She barely had the time to block the feet coming at her. Tsukiumi could feel the pain entering her system. She forgot how much stronger Yume was compared to her.
"Yume, get out of there!"
The Sekirei of Fate obeyed the order and this time, Tsukiumi felt a bigger hit of electricity hitting her.
"Thou blasted fools. Water arrow!" Aimed at the twins, neither Hikari nor Hibiki could move from their spot.
Luckily for them, a wall of ice blocked the deadly arrows.
"Thank you, Akitsu." The Ice user nodded to them. Her eyes set on Tsukiumi. She wanted to join in the fight.
When she felt a hand on her shoulders, her Ashikabi shook his head.
"No. Let Yume and the twins handle this. Protect us. We all have a role to play." Akitsu nodded back to Minato.
"Very well, Ashikabi. But can I ask?" Before she even spoke the words, Minato had pressed his lips to hers.
Akitsu felt power, happiness, and contentment settling in her system.
"This is the ice of my pledge. Shatter the misfortunes of my Ashikabi!" It was the same feeling she had when he claimed her as his woman for the first time.
Tsukiumi watched the Yuki Ona blush. This was getting well out of hand. Four Sekirei, two Single Numbers, all four boosted by their Ashikabi. Her eyes circled for the exit. When she could see Yume again, she had gained into her.
"You chose a bad time to attack."
"Thou art all so vigilant. I presumed that thou challenged me by coming here!" Tsukiumi shouted as she felt another blast coming from the twins.
"Tsukiumi. Not everything has to be so violent."
"Then let me walk away." Yume shook her head.
"No. You attacked us so we are going to stop you." Again, a bolt of lightning hit Tsukiumi as she felt her power leaving her.
"Thou think I would submit myself to such an Ashikabi? A vile Monkey who would parade me as a toy?"
Yume really hated the fact of what Miyajima told Tsukiumi. All big fat lies.
"Minato isn't like that. Hell, most Ashikabi's aren't like that."
"Then tell me. Did thou submit to him? Like a woman submit to a man?" Yume wasn't one to blush when she got asked.
This time, her cheeks revealed the answer.
"I did."
Before the twins could attack again, Yume raised a hand to stop them.
When Tsukiumi advanced with her water, Yume could block it easily enough.
"Thou admit that he claimed you."
"I submitted to him out of my own volition! He claimed me as his own out of my own volition! Same as the other Sekirei!"
Tsukiumi's mouth began to drop open.
"Art thou telling me that he has more Sekirei?" The Waterdere couldn't believe that he had gotten Yume winged. If this Ashikabi could get her to submit, who else did he wing?
"About ten Sekirei. Myself, the twins and Akitsu included." Yume admitted while she relaxed a bit more.
"Who else?"
"Numbers 1 till 4," that alone made Tsukiumi gulp. He managed to wing both the Pillar of the Sekirei and the infamous Black Sekirei.
"Number 10, Uzume and Number 108., Kusano." Her eyes flickered again to Yume as she glared.
"And all were claimed by him?"
"Not 108. Kusano is a child. Minato wouldn't even entertain the idea."
Tsukiumi began to boil with fury.
"And he would see me nothing more as a notch on his belt?" Yume gave the signal to the twins to send a bolt to Tsukiumi.
It prevented the attack of Tsukiumi.
"I agree. It's uncommon for an Ashikabi to wing that many Sekirei. But he managed to deliver every time. Not once did he see me as a notch on his belt. Neither with the others." Yume knew how Minato felt about them.
It was unorthodox to have that many women, even for Sekirei but they managed to make it work.
"Lies!"
"He loves us! He made us react. He treats us like women."
"And what doth thou suggest? That I wing myself on him?" Yume decided that enough was enough. Talking to her wouldn't work so she had to face Minato.
And the rest of their flock as well. So using her speed, she gave Tsukiumi one gut punch that knocked all the wind out of her.
"That would be for the best." Tsukiumi was taken up by Yume while she landed back with her on the floor.
The rest looked apprehensive on the matter.
"We could hear you loud and clear," Minato said as he was blushing like a schoolboy.
He looked at the place. It was a mess. A giant one from the fighting that happened.
"Yume, could you take Tsukiumi and the other girls? Restrain her if you have to. I'm going to pay for the damages."
Judging by his tone, Minato wasn't in the mood for more shenanigans. And if Yume would be honest, neither could she.
"What are we going to do with her?" Hikari asked Minato. She wasn't looking forward to having this lunatic around.
"Either we work out a civil agreement or we terminate her." Hibiki raised an eyebrow. She hadn't expected such callous words from their sweet Ashikabi.
"Any reason why?"
"I die and you all come along. Don't want to have that on my conscience." Minato answered.
"You think she'll allow it?" He smirked softly as he walked over to Yume. Kissing her again, she relaxed when she felt her Ashikabi.
"I don't care. I will not wing Sekirei that don't react to me. If she does, I'll respect her wishes to that." Looking at her, Minato really didn't realize how pretty Tsukiumi was.
"Besides, I think that both Karasuba and Miya would like to talk to her."
Yume pitied Tsukiumi. She would be in for the scariest time of her life.

"We're home!" Minato shouted as he walked back in with the four Sekirei. They had taken to the skies as that would be more convenient than with a knocked out woman in public transport.
"Onii-chan!" Two voices shouted as both Yukari and Kusano raced up to him. Pressing a chaste kiss on her lips, he lifted Kusano up so she was seated on his left arm.
Then Yukari walked up to him. Giving her a sideways hug, Minato briefly wondered when Yukari got this touchy feeling with him. Not that he complained.
"Welcome back, darling." Turning to see the rest of his Flock in the hallway, plus Musubi and Shiina, they all were anticipating the arrival.
Miya was the one who spoke about the encounter.
"We heard from Yume. And thanks to Matsu, we puzzled down what this lady is thinking." Her voice was calm as the sea but it betrayed the storm brewing underneath.
"What do you intend to do, Minato?" Crossing his arms, his eyes were like the ones of Miya.
"I am going to ask her to become my Sekirei. Willingly. That or she leaves us be. If neither can be done, we terminate her."
Karasuba had a soft chuckle, Kazehana and Matsu's eyes fell when they heard that, Uzume crossed her arms and Kusano kept quiet.
"Any reason why you choose that route, Minato?" Shiina asked his brother-in-law.
"If she kills me, the rest of my Flock follows, Shiina. I do not want that." Yukari joined her brother.
"If that happens, we will kill her."
"That is also something that I will tell her. In the very unlikely chance that she kills me, she'll have you, Sanada, and Hayato on her heels. She will not live through that." Minato would be sure that her sister would kill her.
"And why don't we do that just now?" Karasuba asked.
"She was honorable enough to fight us, Kara-chan. We will give her the choice. If she refuses, you'll get the pleasure to terminate her."
That caused the Black Sekirei to lick her lips.
"Don't hold your breath," Kazehana whispered in her ear.
"Minato is going to wing her."
Scene skip
Tsukiumi woke up. The first thing she registered was the fact that she couldn't move. Her hands were tied up behind her back.
The material was soft linen so at least, it wasn't unpleasant like a rope.
Her mouth was also gagged. Turning her eyes around, she began to make a lot of noise. The residents of the room, which turned out to be all of the Inn, except for Kusano, got their attention to her.
"Ah, you're finally awake," Minato said as he was a bit more jovial about this than he would first expect.
"We're sorry to have you tied up. But we felt that would be for the best." Uzume pecked her Ashikabi on the cheek.
"Didn't know you liked this kind of thing, Uzume-chan."
"Oh, babe. You'll have a lot to learn." The Veiled Sekirei teased her Ashikabi. She doubted that Minato would be into this thing but who said that it had to be Minato who she tied up?
Turning to Tsukiumi, Minato said in front of her.
"Listen, Tsukiumi. We both know that you are reacting to me. I'm going to be perfectly candid with you."
Immediately, the Waterdere began to move and protest. Luckily, nothing came out of her mouth.
"And that is why I allowed Uzume-chan to gag you. Just listen to me." Minato said.
He continued when she calmed down.
"I heard your conversation with Yume. She is right." His arms extended to the Flock of the beauties.
"Do you think that I could or would have forced any of these Sekirei? I'd say that they chose me as their Ashikabi. I have not forced myself on them." Minato explained.
"Rather, I'd say that half winged of them winged themselves on me." His first five Sekirei whistled a tune.
"And if you wonder about the rest of the actions, yes. I have done so. With one exception of Kuu-chan as she is a child. But they have done all sort of stuff with me." Minato blushed as he told Tsukiumi that.
Her eyes widened as Minato told her.
"I will not force you to do these things. I'll respect your wishes and what want to do. I have no problem taking your pace."
Then his eyes turned serious.
"That is if you become my Sekirei. If you refuse, that is your call. But then leave me be. If you continue to go after me, I'll ask my Sekirei to terminate you. I don't leave you with many options. I know that. So what do you choose?"
Tsukiumi mulled over it. The Sekirei, save for Miya, betrayed what they thought of her. It wouldn't be easy for her to find a place here.
"And before you think of killing me. In the very unlikely chance you can do, both the West and South are my friends. My sister got two Sekirei. They'll hunt you down." Minato added.
Tsukiumi's head had her gears running. Then she relaxed.
"You decided. I'll remove your gag."
After doing so, Tsukiumi took a deep breath.
"If thou claims that thou as true and virtuous as thou claims, I will accept being winged by you. If thou promise me to treat me as I wish, I will become your Sekirei."
His head turned to his Flock.
"Girls. As usual. I want to hear your opinions."
Miya spoke first.
"While we will have to work on her, I think it's better than to kill her."
Karasuba was next.
"It'll be more fun with her around instead of dead."
She was improving on that matter.
Kazehana flicked a hair away.
"While I do not take kindly to my lover being treated, I can let bygone be bygones."
Uzume joined her older sister.
"It'll be a fun party. If she knows how to behave."
Matsu sighed.
"What do I have to say? Go for it, Mina-tan."
Akitsu also spoke.
"I think it's best to leave things be."
Yume joined in.
"This is for the best."
The twins spoke as one.
"Oh, why not? We were in the same boat as her."
Yukari added her five cents. Minato kept in mind that there was something he would ask his sister.
"As long she learns the rules."
"So all in agreement. In that case, welcome to the Flock." Pressing his lips on hers, Minato felt another Sekirei joining his Flock.
Her yellow wings showed off.
"This water represents my pledge, purify the evil residing in my Ashikabi!" Minato had a happy smile on his face.
The Ashikabi was glad that the situation was resolved like this.
And that's all for this chapter folks. We're two years in. I hope that you all liked this chapter.
Now, we added the Waterdere to the Flock. 11 Sekirei.
I have never thought that we would be this far in and with this many followers.
Next chapter can take a good long while though.
Saluut.
