"Ow…" Hachiman, still wearing his clothes from the morning, closes his eyes as he sinks deeper into the couch, "That bitch really went all out…" He lets out a groan as he adjusts his body to be in a more comfortable position.

He looks at the clock, seeing that the arrow is pointing at 6 o'clock, "They should be back soon… Ow, I can't even lift my hand to get my max…" He tries to lift his hand to grab the max coffee in front of him but gives up with a sigh.

"Ok… Review; stamina is in the ok category, strength is weak, endurance… Ow. Flexible is in half-stiff… Damn, I should have exercised even more…" He leans his head onto the couch top part and stares at the ceiling, "…At least I beat that old geezer once… First game be damned."

The door opens with a loud bang, prompting him to flinch, "Kiana Kaslana wins the race~!" Kiana runs in and slides to a stop, then Mei and Bronya comes in with the latter sighing.

"Idiotka is being an annoyance. Please be normal," She says in a monotone voice, prompting Kiana to turn around to glare at her.

"Want me to pummel you midget?!"

"Subject Idiotka has less than zero point one percent of even getting close to the Bronya."

Mei steps in between them and raises her arm at each, "Enough, please! We still need to wait for Hachiman to get back and give him the good news." She squints her eyes at both of them, making them reluctantly stand down.

"Yo, welcome back." Hachiman tries to move his head to look at them but gives up.

Kiana bolts over to him, "Hachiman~ the midget is bullying me~" She looks at him with her puppy eyes while pointing at Bronya, "Please help me!"

Bronya facepalms while he sighs and annoyedly says, "No. I would rather rest than do more work."

Kiana gasps before launching herself at him, "Noooo~ please help me fight off the vile midget!" She hugs him, prompting him to look at her with his cheeks red as he feels her breast pressing against his body.

Mei walks behind him and looks down with a disapproving stare, "Pervert." She crosses her arms. Bronya nods as well before going upstairs.

"Oi. It's not like I am asking for this. I am a healthy male that has healthy responses." He looks at her with a frown.

Mei stops her staring and giggles, "I know, I'm just messing with you, Hachiman~" She says in a sing-song tone before taking a seat next to him.

"Oh yeah!" Kiana stops hugging him, prompting him to look and sees her excited face, "We luckily got permission to leave the island!" She beams at him.

Mei chimes in, "But we would need to bring two Valkyries of at least A level. Luckily, Miss Himeko is free tomorrow, so we just need one more."

He rolls his head at her then raises an eyebrow, "I think that bit – I mean, Fu Hua, is A rank since she was assigned to protect me… Let me just call her…" He slowly lifts his hand and slowly grabs his phone out of his pocket.

Kiana sees his hand trembling, "What the heck did you do?" She asks, prompting him to look, so she points to his hand.

Hachiman sighs, "Played chess, then that popular RTS game of three races, for tactical stuff, then got my ass handed to me by Fu Hua in a sparring, more like me being her punching bag," He complains as he puts his phone near his ear, "My body feels like it got hit by a truck every time she punched me."

Mei raises an eyebrow, "How come you got her number…?" Her eyes turn pink, though they change back almost instantly, which goes unnoticed by them.

He snorts, "Was forced to," He blandly says before hearing Fu Hua greeting, "Yo. Looks like tomorrow is the day. Yes, yes, I know it's late and you need to pack and I told Creed and Candy about it, yep, need you to tell them since I don't have their number… Why – oh fine. Just send me their number." He puts down the phone on his lap with a sigh.

Kiana hugs him then presses their face together, "Hurray! We're going to Chiba and meeting your little sister~!"

Mei clasps her hands together as she gets up, "Right, we need to bring her gifts. Kiana, let's go out to buy something while we still can." She grabs Kiana, who blinks, then hoists her up to her feet.

"…Just buy her some food from here and she'll be fine," Hachiman sighs before flinching as he feels a slap to his forehead, "Ow!"

Mei lowers her hand then sighs, "Geez, Hachiman, that only works for you."

"The heck does that mean?"

"First impression, Hachiman. A good first impression since we will be meeting your sister."

Kiana nods then hugs Mei, "She's going to be our sister-in-law after all!" She loudly declares, prompting the latter and him to blush.

"O-oi! Aren't you going too fast?! Wait, what?! Y-you were actually serious about the whole sharing thing?!" He lifts his head then gets up, with his phone dropping to the floor, to look at them with various emotions swimming in his eyes.

"K-Kiana!" Mei buries her face in her hands and her ears slowly turn red as well.

Kiana blinks before her cheeks slightly redden and she fidgets in place, "O-of course I meant all of that! Well not in the beginning since I only like Mei but after you… You are my first friend that… That… Urghh, after you saved us when the school blew and stuck with me!"

Hearing Kiana's words, he blinks before looking anywhere but them, "…But are you sure…? Won't you regret your decision…?" He quietly mutters.

Kiana stops hugging Mei, who still has her hands on her face but there are gaps for her to look at, then hugs him, prompting him to flinch, "Nope. A Kaslana always go through with their promise. And I promise that I won't betray you and Mei." She puts her hands on his head to make him look at her smile.

"Include Bronya in there, Kiana. Please." Mei takes a deep breath and exhales as she removes her hands from her face.

She rolls her eyes and sighs, "Fiiinee, but she's placed only higher than the general population of masked people!"

Mei shakes her head, "Good enough I suppose… Also… I… Don't… Mind being with… Both of you…" She quietly mutters with her cheeks blazing red.

"M-Mei?!" Hachiman splutters as he looks at her with shock, "You don't have to follow what Kiana says!"

"Oi! What do you mean by that?!" Kiana indignantly says before rubbing their cheeks together even harder, "Tell me!"

"Ow! Quit it you damn gorilla!"

"Not until you tell me what you meant!"

Mei quietly giggles as she sees them bantering, then she smiles with her eyes closed, "Don't worry Hachiman… I am just following what my heart says…"


*A...N*

Welp, I'm back from my break, medicine didn't work, only made me have a headache and eye pain at random times instead of alleviating my symptoms. So, with that out of the way, Kiana and Mei are making advances on dear ol Hachiman! Though he didn't give his answers just yet (or did he?) and everything here is intentional since the *REDACTED* their feelings and all. Anyway, on to the comments!

Guest - here's a chapter as a reward for your wait

Alt Zero - *pleased tuna face*

patiphat1998 - no problem, I only want to share my worlds with other people (still got over a million-ish left!)

Renashi-RE012 - *thumbs up* don't worry about the tomato since it's only a harmless trigger of his and yeah RTS is good way to teach strategy while being engaging instead of just reading and reading (wish other writers put it in their stuff as a way to train). Thank you but honestly, not being able to write was killing me since I couldn't write due to my symptoms, so I'm glad to be back to writing.

DrackNath - (I'll just go from the earlies comment to the latest) yep, I do play the game but I like to skip the story and the manga are, um, not interesting for me to read but thank you for suggesting. Yep, Kiana the protagonist of Tragedy. Stronk. Oh they will. Hachiman is confirmed sistercon lol. *smiles*. Yep, I really hate that she didn't tell Kiana the truth in canon, so in this one, I made her tell Hachiman for him to tell Kiana whenever he wanted, though Theresa is *REDACTED*. If you've seen some of my other fics, you should guess, though apologies if this doesn't hold up to your standard (not sarcastic) and yes screw you OTTO! The Kaslana family deserved better! Thank you. Lmao. And I'm glad you enjoyed my other stories

GoldStar77 - thank you, though *wryly smiles* I already accepted that I might just die in my sleep since 11 years can do wonders on ya

(P.S - thank you all for the kind words and wishes since almost all of my real life connections with other people tend to fade away because they ignore me and my attempt at talking to them. I politely asked them why they are ignoring but they either ignore or get mad at me, making me have a fear of asking the rest so I just let them fade out as well, even though I always respond and help them with their problems... Anyway, again thank you.)


(Possible Route)

"No! You made a deal that you wouldn't let any harm come upon my family!" Sirin yells while glaring at the sky, though it slowly turns pink and purple.

She glares even further and snarls, "You want to threaten me by using mother and Kiana?" She snaps her finger and voids appear behind her, "Rethink your decision. You still need me."

The voids behind her suddenly dissipate, making her look back with shock, "Wha –" She gets sent flying away by a kick.

Kiana, now wearing different clothes, slowly puts her leg down, "Sorry, original one. The Honkai has no use for you now." She smirks before snapping her fingers and voids appear around Sirin with spears slowly coming out of them.
