...

Yukio slowly became aware of his surroundings as he woke. It had been a few days after he'd been released from the hospital and since then the girls were worried about him being alright which had lead to his current situation of being surrouded by them as he slept. He had thought it a bit much but hadn't been able to argue against them all as he now lay between Rias and Asia with Akeno and Georgia sleeping on the other sides of them. Koneko was sleeping on his stomach while Xenovia and Irina were sleeping above his head and Kotume, Kotake, Kiyome and Orihime were sleeping around his legs.

[Ah~ This is the life, partner.] Ddraig spoke perversely, Yukio rolling his eyes in response as Masayuki spoke up {No need to embarrass him, Ddraig. It's normal they would be worried about him after what happened.}

{Today is the day that Gabriel and Serafall are moving in, isn't it?} Sparda asked curiously, Yukio nodding softly and trying to avoid disturbing any of the girls as he looked at each of their peaceful faces.

"I'm sorry I worried you all." He mumbled, not for the first time since his release from hospital. The fact his body was still recovering and that he would need infusions of demonic energy to help his own aid his spiritual energy in repairing his Spirit Chain had only urged the girls to be more affectionate made his heart ache at how close he had been to hurting them all.

"It's not your fault." Asia murmured sleepily as she started to awaken, leaning in for her chaste morning kiss on reflex, that Yukio happily gave, before cuddling into his side again with a content smile as she asked "How are you feeling, Yukio-san?"

"I'm feeling better, Asia, but still a little tired cause of my Spirit Chain healing." Yukio answered honestly, Asia's worried look lessening as she let her hands run over the middle of his chest where his Hollow hole had been during his transformation. She hadn't seen what had happened but between Rias and Keiko they had explained well enough that she had been touched and cried about the effect she had on him, even as her heart swelled with joy.

"Morning Yukio-sempai ~nyah." Koneko murmured as she started to wake, Yukio smiling softly as he petted her head and earned a delighted purr from the Nekoshou before a knock on the door started to make the others stir.

"Nii-kun! Gabriel-sama and the Maou are coming here today. Beelzebub-sama and Lucifer-sama wants to speak with you about separate things." Keiko's voice called through the door, Yukio wondering about the latter as he called back "Alright Keiko-nee."

...

Yukio shifted nervously as he sat in the living room with the others of Rias' peerage around, Koneko sitting on his lap, as they waited for their guests to arrive.

"Don't worry, Yukio. They just want to make sure that Isa won't hurt anyone if he gets out again." Rias spoke as she rested a hand on Yukio's arm, the door opening moments later to allow Gabriel, Serafall, Sirzechs and Ajuka entered the room.

Each took a seat in the room before accepting the tea Georgia and Akeno had made. Gabriel giving Yukio serene smile as she sat in an armchair opposite him, the white gown she was wearing accentuating her womanly curves while her long golden blonde hair fell down to her waist.

[You could say she has a 'heavenly' figure.] Ddraig spoke lecherously, groans coming from Sparda and Masayuki at the cliche line from the dragon. Yukio mentally rolling his eyes as Gabriel spoke "It is nice to finally meet you, Hosokawa Yukio-kun. I'm just sad that it had to be under such circumstances."

"I understand. Thank you both for being willing to stay here." Yukio spoke with a smile, Serafall grinning childishly as she replied "That's alright. Now I can finally be close to Yu-chan and I'll make sure that you don't hurt yourself."

"It's no problem, Yukio-san. I know you have a good soul." Gabriel added with a serene smile, Yukio's face reddening at hearing that as Sirzechs smiled and asked "How are you doing, Yukio-kun?"

"I'm just feeling a restless, Sirzechs-sama." Yukio replied, Sirzechs nodding in understanding as he spoke "That's understandable but from what Unohana-taichou has said its best you rest till she can be sure your Spirit Chain has fully recovered."

"Why did you come, Ajuka-sama?" Rias asked curiously, Ajuka smiling as he replied "I wanted to run a check on your [Pawns], Hosokawa Yukio, to see the effect your Hollow Juggernaut Drive had on them. Also I want to ask about Arisu coming to stay here after the backlash from Diodora's actions."

"Erh... Well if Keiko-nee doesn't mind then I don't." Yukio answered with a shrug, Ajuka giving him a thankful nod before standing up as he adding "Well if you will just stand up, I can start my scan."

Koneko quickly hopped off Yukio's lap so he could stand up and move to stand before Ajuka, watching the green haired Maou create a complex magic circle in his hand before making it float over to nearly touch Yukio's chest. A thoughtful look formed on Ajuka's face as he watched the information coming off his magic circle.

"Rias, it seems the producers are making great progress for the television show." Sirzechs spoke up with an amused grin, Yukio arching an eyebrow at his [King] whose face reddened as she blurted out "It was Onii-sama's and Azazel's idea given how popular with children and teens you are."

Sirzechs nodded when Yukio looked to him before starting to explain "We're hoping to have it like a tokusatsu hero film with the main being you. The heroine being Rias as well as other roles for each of you."

Yukio looked surprised at hearing that there was going to be show with him as the lead as Sirzechs added "We still haven't fully worked out the story but we were hoping you and your band would supply some of the soundtrack and music."

"I'm sure the guys would like that." Yukio mused with a smile, Ajuka stepping back and dismissing the magic circle as he spoke up "That's all done. It will take some time to sort out the results but from the glimpse I've had I believe your Pawn pieces have mutated."

"Is that good or bad?" Yukio asked unsure, Ajuka offering him a reassuring smile as he answered "Good. It's just them adjusting to being affected by your [Hollow Juggernaut Drive], I believe."

Yukio relaxed at hearing that as Keiko entered the room, smiling friendly to the group as she spoke "I've got the rooms for you both ready, Gabriel-san, Serafall-san."

"Ah, I should come along to talk about my little sister possibly staying here." Ajuka spoke up as he followed the female leaders leaving the room.

...

Yukio sighed as he stood in the training area, Nevan in its scythe from in his hands as he ran through some simple practice with the Devil Arm. Sirzechs and Ajuka had left once Gabriel and Serafall were starting to settle in and with that everyone went to do their own things. It had given Yukio the chance to slip away as he was getting a bit restless from not having done any training at all.

Yukio jumped at seeing Sparda appear before him, Rebellion rested point down before him, as he spoke {Relax Yukio, its understandable you'd be eager to practice with the Devil Arms seeing you haven't used them very much.}

"Thanks. I think I was going to start going a little crazy if I didn't get a chance to practice." Yukio replied sheepishly before his move became more sombre as he added "Also... No one is really sure how long my Spirit Chain will take to repair so I need to be ready to fight without relying too much on my Shinigami powers."

{That's a good idea, son.} Masayuki spoke up, Yukio feeling a pat on the shoulder from his father who appeared in the room along with a human looking Ddriag who added

[Yeah, I think I recalling having a host once who could use a Scythe if you want some instruction. She had a nice ass.]

Yukio sighed at the expected perverse comment, Masayuki looking amused while Sparda looked exasperated as he muttered {Is the only reason you recall her because of your perverse mind?}

[You can't expect me to recalling everything about my previous hosts, Sparda. The good stuff makes my time with them memorable.] Ddraig retorted with a snort at the legendary devil before Masayuki rolled his eyes as he spoke up {Now you two, stop fighting. Yukio-kun's already going to be in trouble with his girls if they find him here, let's not waste his time with you two arguing.}

"Thanks Tou-san." Yukio muttered as he tried to fight the blush on his face, Ddriag and Sparda sharing a look before nodding in agreement. None of the three spirits decided to mention that Orihime was perched in the rafters of the training room in her phoenix form, watching them, as Yukio would only get more restless from putting this off.

Twirling Nevan in his hands, Yukio took a ready stance with the curved blade behind him as Sparda and Masayuki disappeared leaving Ddraig opposite him with a red copy of nevan appearing in his hands as the dragon started to teach him how to use a scythe.

...

"You shouldn't be training You're Spirit Chain is damaged." Georgia scolded, managing to keep a stern look on her face even as her eyes occasionally drifted to Yukio's toned torso as he stood before her in a pair of black jeans with a towel on his head to dry off.

"Unohana-san told me I should be fine as long as I try and avoid using my Shinigami powers, Georgia. Plus I need to train with those Devil Arms to make up for not being able to use those powers." Yukio rebuked gently, unaware of the attention he was garnering as he walked towards the stairs. Akeno, Kotake and Serafall licked their lips as they watched him walk past while Rias and Kiyome watched with a leer. Asia, Xenovia, Irina and Kotume flushed as they stared while Koneko fought her own blush rising to her cheeks.

"I kept an eye on him Georgia-san, Yukio-sama didn't do anything too strenuous." Orihime spoke up as she stood with red cheeks as she looked at Yukio.

"Yukio-san, you should put on a shirt." Gabriel spoke with pink cheeks, Yukio blushing at seeing the stares before he nodded and made his way to his room.

"Ufufu... It looks like his training his paying off." Akeno giggled, Rias smiling pleased as she agreed. Koneko moved to head upstairs, deciding that now would be a good time to do the Senjutsu healing with Yukio as she mumbled "... I'm going to heal Sempai's body now."

"Ah, I have something that will help." Akeno spoke up with an amused smile, hurrying after the catgirl.

...

Yukio sighed softly as Koneko sat on his lap with her cat features out as she was hugging him, waiting a few moments before asking "...How is it?"

"It feels good, Koneko-chan." Yukio replied, understanding that she was using senjutsu with her whole body on him to help recover some of the life he had lost from the [Hollow Juggernaut Drive]. Koneko was wearing a thin white cloth that Yukio was sure had been given to her by Akeno because it purifies one's body, and would make it easier to use her 'Ki'.

"...At the same time I'm removing the fatigue you have, the life energy which was consumed by [Hollow Juggernaut Drive] can be healed bit by bit if I use the healing-type senjutsu on you." Koneko explained with a smile and red cheeks, Yukio having trouble focusing on her words with her sitting on his lap and the warm feeling getting sent through his body.

"Yeah. It's just a shame we aren't sure if this would help with my Spirit Chain..." Yukio replied softly, remembering that if he hadn't been born with such large reserves of Reiyoku and demonic energy he probably would have suffered more damage to his life force.

[You should just be enjoying her loli body, partner.] Ddraig spoke with a lecherous grin, Yukio mentally rolling his eyes as Koneko spoke, looking up at him with teary eyes "... There will be many people saddened if Yukio-sempai was to die. ...I would also hate it if Sempai dies. That's why I am doing this to retrieve the life energy which has been lost, bit by bit. ... I will spend all my life trying to heal it... So please don't turn into that... form... again..."

"I... I can't make that promise, Koneko-chan..." Yukio started with a sad sigh, ducking his head as he continued "B-But I won't use it unless I have no other choice."

Koneko's arms tightened around Yukio's body again as if to say "Please don't use that form again anyway". Yukio wouldn't have expected Koneko to be so strongly hugged by her from when they first met.

"...Sempai, there is actually a much more faster way." Koneko spoke with a reddening face, Yukio looking curious as he asked "Really? How do you do that?"

"...It's Bo-Bouchuujutsu." Koneko answered in a quiet voice, Yukio blinking as he asked "Bouchuujutsu? What is that?"

"...A woman who specialises in using the 'ki' has to share her 'ki' to the man... and it heals the life core greatly." Koneko answered, Yukio looking curious at her as he asked "Wow... I didn't know that there was a convenient 'jutsu' like that. Is there anything special about how it is performed?"

Koneko's face seemed to turn even redder and a brief look of panic formed on her face before she spoke in a determined voice "W-Well. The man and the woman... have to become 'one'. It's a 'jutsu' where the woman has to send their 'ki' directly to the man's body."

"W-Wait! Is that sex!?" Yukio asked shocked, Koneko's hands quickly covering his mouth as she muttered embarrassed "Y-Your voice is too loud, Sempai."

Yukio nodded his head in response, Koneko removing her hands soon after so he could speak "Sorry about that. It just surprised me. You don't have to do Bouchuujutsu with me either Koneko-chan."

"Are you dissatisfied with me...?" Koneko asked with sad eyes, Yukio hugging her tightly as he replied with a sigh "No, Koneko-chan. Its just I don't want to risk having children at this point, even more so with the trouble that they could have with hollow powers."

Koneko's eyes widened at hearing that, realising that Yukio was worried about how his children would cope with Hollow powers especially with the trouble Isa had been causing for him. Yukio shook his head to dismiss the thoughts before he added "Shouldn't it be not possible for me, a Shinigamai/ Dragon/ Devil/ Hollow hybrid and you, a former Yokai, to have children?"

"No, the female Nekomata normally mate with the male of a different race... Mainly, it often happens with human males but it can happen with other races." Koneko explained, Yukio smiling at the change of topic as he asked "Aren't there any male Nekomata?"

"... The number of them are low, but there are... But female Nekomata mate with males from different races due to the old teachings. My kind is the rarest, so it's certain that I need to leave offspring... I have reincarnated to a devil, but I do want a baby..." Koneko explained, her cheeks warming at speaking about having a baby while looking at him with determined eyes as she added shyly "... My b-body and breasts are small... But I still can have s-sex properly... I can still make b-babies... And if Sempai really does become in danger, then I would have to perform Bouchuujutsu by force... I am already prepared for it..."

[Hell Yeah!] Ddraig roared eagerly, only for Masayuki and Sparda to hit the perverse dragon as the spoke in unison {{Quiet down Ero-Dragon}}

Yukio flushed at Koneko and Ddraig's shout, shaking his head as he retort "You don't have to force yourself to do anything Koneko-chan."

"...But if I live in this house, it seems like I must know about those kind of things... Lately that's what I started to think..." Koneko replied, Yukio's eyes widening as he wondered how much of an influence Rias and Akeno were being on her as he rested his hands on the catgirl's shoulders as he spoke "Listen, Koneko-chan. You shouldn't compete with Rias-sama and Akeno-san. I would prefer if you take your own pace with things Koneko-chan. I told this to Asia as well, you know."

"...But Asia-sempai is also trying hard as well..." Koneko spoke disappointed, Yukio offering her a soft smile before leaning down to give her an light, innocent kiss on the lips before whispering "Then try hard in your own way and not copy Rias-sama and Akeno-san, okay."

Koneko's face was bright red as she looked at him with wide eyes as she realised that her first kiss had been taken. Her eyes narrowed before she pushed Yukio onto his back so she could give him a proper kiss as she lay atop of him.

"Are we interrupting something, Koneko?" Rias asked with a dangerous smile as she looked at the pair, Koneko flushed as she hopped off of Yukio's lap as she replied "...No Buchou. I just finished."

"Good. Arisu has just arrived and is waiting for us to welcome her." Rias spoke with a more natural smile, Yukio nodding as he moved to grab a red shirt to pull on as the trio headed downstairs.

...

"Thank you for letting me stay here, Yukio-sama." Arisu spoke with a formal bow, Yukio smiling as he replied "It's alright, Arisu-san. It isn't fair that what Diodora did would affect you."

"Yukio's right, Arisu." Rias added from next to Yukio, Arisu's eyes widening in relief at seeing the agreeing nods and looks from the others residents of the Hosokawa home as Serafall chimed in "Everything will calm down sooner or later, Ari-tan."

"Especially with Ajuka-san's efforts." Gabriel added with a kind smile, Arisu nodding with a smile as she replied "Thank you."

"Come on, let me help you move in" Yukio spoke with a smile, Arisu nodding happily as she let herself be lead upstairs. It wasn't until they entered the empty room and the pair had started to unpack Arisu's stuff before Yukio decided to ask "So... How did figure out what Diodora was up to?"

"Well, he and I were never all that close but everyone in the family knew Diodora-niisan had a jealous streak. He had a big inferiority complex as well cause of Ajuka-niisama being a Super Devil and the potential the higher ups saw in me despite my young age." Arisu explained, Yukio nodding in understanding as he replied "He wasn't a good brother at all was he?"

"No..." Arisu sighed with a sad look as she continued, "He just saw me as someone that would be more accepted as the heiress of the clan. Especially with the praise I have recieved due to the skill and volume of my demonic magic."

"How is the remainder of Diodora's peerage?" Yukio asked, Arisu looking tearily as she answered "They... Well, they are still recovering all that Diodora-niisan did to them. But at least now they won't have to deal with any of that any more."

"Yeah that's true... Sorry for asking personal questions." Yukio spoke upon noticing her teary eyes, letting Arisu guide him to put other stuff away as he continued "My family, outside of my parents and Keiko-nee, didn't like me much as well."

Arisu gasped at hearing that, turning to look at Yukio as he put books onto the bookshelf as he continued "Mainly due to being 'unpure' as being the son of a Shinigami and a half Devil could be. Keiko-nee had it somewhat easier with Tou-san's family as she took after him and was dominant in his powers but she couldn't stand how they treated me so that's why we left to stay in the human world."

Yukio didn't notice Rias standing in the doorway or how both girls had tears welling in their eyes as he mused quietly to himself "I must have suppressed the memories when I was young cause I only started to remember after Isa started replaying the scenes in front of me while I was... that."

Neither girl could take it any more as they moved to hug Yukio, the silver haired young man surprised to see Rias there as he spoke surprised "R-Rias?"

"Sorry... I couldn't help listening in. But why didn't you tell me?" Rias spoke as she pressed her face into his neck, Yukio hugging her back with one arm while putting the other around Arisu who added "That's horrible."

"I've been trying to understand them since they started..." Yukio quietly admitted to Rias, averting his eyes as he continued "... and I didn't want to worry you about them as its in the past."

"Still I could have helped you with it." Rias countered, moving one hand to gently turn his face to look at her. Arisu blushed as she watched the pair, stepping back in fear of ruining what was looking to be a private moment between the two.

"Sorry. I'll try and remember that next time, Rias." Yukio replied sheepishly, Rias' smile growing before she gave him a gentle kiss on the lips before speaking "Why don't you go find the others, I'll help Arisu-san with unpacking."

"Alright." Yukio replied with a nod, giving Arisu a smile before leaving the room. Rias smiling friendly to the the younger girl as she spoke "Let's get finished here and then we can go relax with the others."

"Oh, I hope you brought a swimsuit with you as well, as we're going somewhere for a few days break for Yukio." Rias spoke with a mischievous wink to the blushing blonde who nodded as the image of Yukio rubbing sun tan lotion flittered through both of their minds.

...

Yukio stared as he took in the empty beach and the large resort next to it before looking to where Rias was hugging his side as he spoke "You didn't have to do this, you know?"

"Well you deserve to have a break... especially after everything that had happened." Rias spoke with a bright smile. All of the ORC, Georgia, Kiyome, Irina, Arisu, Kotake, Kotume and even Keiko had come along and were dressed in loose clothing so they would be able to cope with the sunny weather, the girls wearing tank tops and cotton shorts while the guys were wearing t-shirts and shorts.

"Let's get checked in and then we can enjoy the beach." Keiko spoke with a soft smile, everyone soon agreeing as they started to walk towards the resort.

"Hey Yu!" Saji's voice called, Yukio grinning as he turned to see him and the Sitri group approaching along with Daisuke and Shinji with Seekvaira and the rest of her peerage.

"Gen, Dai, Shin what are you all doing here?" Yukio asked surprised, Daisuke grinning as he slung his arm around his friend's shoulders as he answered "Come on, man. You think we'd give up the chance to enjoy this place."

"No way." Yukio chuckled as the large group headed to check into their rooms.

...

"Go enjoy yourself for now and we'll meet up for dinner." Rias spoke with a smile as she looked over the large group, everyone having gotten changed into their beachwear after they had checked into their rooms. Sona and Seekvaira giving their own agreements before the group started to head onto the beach.

"Hey, Rias?" Seekvaira asked, Rias turning to the blonde and offering a friendly smile as she replied "What's wrong, Seekvaira?"

"I wanted to know if you had any advice on dating... I want to date Shinji but well, I don't have any idea how to go about it and with you dating Yukio..." Seekvaira explained, Rias' smile growing as she thought it over for a few moments.

"Well... Yukio and I really just naturally fell into dating, I think. Neither of us really asked the other although it may have started when I asked him to call me by my name." Rias spoke thoughtfully, tapping a finger on her chin before continuing "You should just sit down to talk to him and see what comes of it."

Seekvaira nodded in understanding, glancing to see Sona's own agreement as they followed after their peerages. Akeno smiling impishly as she suggested as her gaze flickered over to where Yukio was talking to the other girls "Why don't we play some volleyball?"

"Alright then." Rias spoke with a smirk, catching onto what she was suggesting as she caught sight of Yukio, Saji, Shinji and Daisuke playing two on two with several of the girls watching. The teams were Yukio and Shinji and Saji and Daisuke.

...

Rias enjoyed how Yukio's eyes raked over her figure in the revealing crimson bikini as she, Akeno, Xenovia and Irina faced off against Sona, Tsubaki, Seekvaira and her [Queen]. She smile grew at seeing Saji and Shinji mainly focusing on Sona and Seekvaira respectively and mentally was glad to agreeing with Akeno's idea, even if her [Queen] was garnering the same amount of attention from Yukio as she, Xenovia and Irina were in their own chosen pieces of swimwear. Akeno was wearing a purple string bikini that looked at least two sizes smaller then it should be while Xenovia was wearing a tankini style bikini of a dark blue and Irina wore a modest white one-piece swimsuit that was hugged her curves.

"And that is match." Rias called, spiking the ball down into the sand even as Sona and Seekvaira both moved to try and hit the ball skywards.

"That was great, Rias-sama." Yukio spoke as he approached Rias, Akeno and Xenovia with a couple of towels.

"Thank you, Yukio" Rias replied, accepting the towel from him before Akeno moved to hug Yukio's arm as she spoke "Could you help me dry off, Yukio-kun?"

"Akeno..." Rias spoke in a dangerous tone, Yukio blushing as he found himself trapped between the two as Rias wrapped herself around his other arm only for Akeno to retort with a pout "It's only a bit of skinship, Rias. You and I have done similar things when we were younger. Plus you can have him put sun oil on you first"

Yukio's arched eyebrow to her made Rias' blush grow darker as she glared at her [Queen] before she retorted "No way. Yukio is going to put sun oil on me now, right?"

"Erm...Alright." Yukio replied conflicted as he looked between the two young women, Akeno pouting disappointed while Rias looked victorious before the ravenette perked up as she added "You can do me after then, Yukio-kun?"

Yukio nodded in response, Rias seeming fine with it before moving to whisper something into Akeno's ear that made her look happier before the young man found himself getting dragged over to where their stuff had been left so they could start. Rias wasted no time taking off her bikini top and lying down on the towel, Yukio being handed the oil by Akeno before she moved to take off her own top and lie down next to Rias as she spoke "The sooner you do both of us, the sooner you can get a treat from us."

Yukio blushed at the alluring tone Akeno used, hearing the red dragon egg him on to be quick as he set to work on rubbing oil on Rias' back, noticing how Akeno's eyes seemed to focus on his hands. It was odd to see the pair not fighting over him as Yukio finished with Rias and moved onto Akeno, although Rias' glare at some of the exaggerated moans from her childhood friend made him wonder how long the truce would last.

"There, all done." Yukio spoke as he sat back after finishing putting oil on Akeno, noticing the nod of agreement between the two girls moments before he was jumped by both of them and pushed onto his back. His face reddening at seeing that neither girl had bothered to put their bikini top back on as Rias picked up the bottle of oil as she spoke "Now its time for you to be oiled up."

"This is our treat to you, Yukio-kun." Akeno flirty spoke, letting her fingers trace over his chest as Yukio gulped embarrassed. Rias rolling her eyes as she poured some oil in her hands as she spoke "Well, help me Akeno."

"Y-You don't have to do that, Rias-chan, Akeno-chan." Yukio stammered back, shuddering in pleasure as Rias' hands started to slowly massage oil onto his chest as she countered "It's only fair, Yukio."

Rias leaned down to kiss him tenderly to cut off any sort of rebuke, Yukio giving in happily as her and Akeno's hands continued to work on his torso and neck. Rias broke off the kiss with a pleased smile, Akeno pouting as she moaned "I want to kiss, Yukio-kun as well..."

Rias frowned at her friend before averting her eyes as she muttered "Go on then."

Akeno smiled brightly as she dove in to kiss Yukio heatedly, earning a moan from the silver haired young man as she rubbed her breasts against his body.

...

[I can't believe Rias cock-blocked you, partner... She can't be expected to take all of your firsts.] Ddraig grumbled disappointed as Yukio wandered over the beach, absently noting how the explosions of sand behind him from Rias and Akeno's fight didn't seem to affect the others on the beach.

"Hey Yukio-san." Kotake called enthusiastically, Yukio turning to see with Kotake and Kotume, who were wearing red and blue bikini's respectively. Kotake's bikini looked more risque then the modest one Kotume was wearing.

"Hey Kotake-san, Kotume-san. What are you two up to?" Yukio greeted curiously, Kotake grinning mischievously as she signalled over some nearby rocks as she spoke, wiggling her eyebrows, "We're just watching Seekvaira and Shinji having a secret meeting."

"I told her not to Yukio-sama but..." Kotume started, only for Yukio to rest a hand on her shoulder as he replied "It's alright... I'm really curious what those two are speaking in private about."

Kotume blushed as the trio turned to watch Shinji and Seekvaira talking quietly, Kotake hugging his arm as she commented "They've been like that for a few minutes already."

"Right..." Yukio mused, glancing to both young women as Kotume started speaking "I'm glad your alright... We both were worried about what happened to you."

"I'm sorry for that." Yukio replied, using an arm to wrap around Kotume's waist in a hug and making her face redden as she hugged him back. Kotake smirking to her sister as she joined in enthusiastically, arms around his neck, as she added "We forgive you, don't we sis? But you'll have to give us a kiss first."

Yukio and Kotume's cheeks reddened at hearing that, Kotake wiggling her eyebrows at him as she added "And Kotume should be first..."

"Onee-san!?" Kotume squeaked embarrassed before finding Kotake pushing the pair together till Yukio fell atop of her, her lips moulding to his as she found herself under the silver haired young man. Kotume moaned as her eyes fluttered closed and she started moving her lips against Yukio's, relaxing as he reciprocated until they parted.

"Sorry..." Kotume spoke embarrassed, Yukio shaking his head as he moved to sit next to her and replied "It's not your fault..."

"That was a good one, Sis." Kotake spoke, squirming in glee at seeing her sister finally kiss her crush before sitting down on his lap with an alluring look as she added "Now it's time for mine, Yukio-sama."

Without any hesitation, Kotake fiery kissed Yukio deeply. Her arms wrapped around his neck and tangled into his hair as she moaned, Yukio's arms loosely wrapping around her waist. They broke apart at the voice of Shinji "Well looks like you were enjoying yourself, Yu."

Yukio flushed red as he and Kotake scrambled back to there feet, Seekvaira smiling softly at them with a blush on her cheeks as she held Shinji's arm.

"Nice to see you two finally got together as well." Yukio retorted, Kotake and Kotume smiling in agreement as Shinji and Seekvaira both blushed before the former added "Just need to get Gen and Sona together now..."

"True..." Yukio spoke thoughtfully, scratching his chin before Kotake spoke up with a grin "I think I have a plan for that."

...

Finding Saji had been easy for the group as he was with the rest of his peerage, Daisuke, Kiyome, Koneko and the Church Trio all building sand sculptures. Kiyome wore a modestly cut green bikini while Koneko wore a yellow one-piece swimsuit that had a frilled skirt. Asia wore a modest cute bikini with a skirt frilled bottom while Irina wore a modest white bikini and Xenovia wore a blue tankini.

"Yukio-san! What do you think?" Asia asked as she signalled to the large cat they had made, Yukio looking impressed as he replied "It's amazing. Good job all of you."

Kiyome, Koneko and the Church Trio all blushed and smiled at hearing that before goin back to work on finishing it.

"Oi Gen! Come over here." Shinji called, Yukio watching amused as Kotake and Kotume moved to take over for the brunet and distract the other girls.

"What's up?" Saji asked curiously, looking between his two friends before Yukio explained "Well, Shin has a plan to get you and Sona together."

"What is it?" Saji asked turning to their Quincy friend who smirked as he answered "You just use a little reverse psychology on her... so just don't appear interested in her any longer."

"And can you stop ignoring Momo-san and Ruruko-san's advances, you're not helping either girl and you're a dragon. Just get use to the idea of having multiple mates." Yukio added with a frown at catching the pair of girls looking over at Saji.

"Just like you accepted that you'll be shared amongst the girls." Shinji retorted with an amused look, Yukio blushing as he looked away while Saji looked surprised at the pair before he spluttered "Wait, Momo and Ruruko like me?"

"Of course you idiot!" Yukio and Shinji retorted in sync, Saji flinching back from the pair while glancing over to the two young women in question before muttered quietly "Alright."

Yukio and Shinji rolled their eyes at each other as they watched Saji rejoin the sand sculpture competition. Shinji soon joining them as Yukio caught sight of a group of women standing around Georgia and Arisu as he turned back to the others "I'm going to check on Georgia and Arisu."

...

"Kirche-sama, please leave Arisu-san alone. She had nothing to do with what Diodora did." Georgia spoke sternly, wearing a modestly cut black bikini as she stood between Arisu and Kirche Furfur: a dark skinned young woman with fiery orange hair.

"What? You can't be protecting her, I bet she was even helping that sicko of a brother with his plans." Kirche continued on regardless, not noticing her friends all frowning at her before an alarmed look overtook at spotting Yukio approached.

"Is everything alright, Georgia-san?" Yukio asked as he looked at his two friends, Arisu and Georgia looking relieved as Kirche retorted "We don't need your help..."

Her voice trailed off as she locked gazes with Yukio, who arched an eyebrow as if asking for her to continue only for her to stammer and shift nervously before he turned to Arisu with a smile.

"Hey Arisu-san, Georgia-san. Enjoying yourselves?" Arisu smiled back from the pair as Georgia answered first "Yes, I am. I haven't been to the beach in several years."

"Yep, this is my first time, Yukio-san." Arisu added with a bright smile, wearing a cute forest green one-piece swimsuit that had a short skirt.

"That's good. I hope these ladies aren't bothering you?" Yukio asked, giving a brief look to Kirche and her friends who all seemed to suddenly shake their heads in response before Arisu smiled kindly and answered "They were just voicing their opinions about my Nii-san."

Yukio nodded in response, noticing Georgia giving him an amused glance before another young woman spoke up from the group "I'm sorry about Kirche, she's never liked Diodora."

Yukio turned with a friendly smile to the violet haired young woman as he replied "That's understandable, I only met him a couple of times and never liked him, but that's no reason for her to take it out on Arisu-san."

"I tried to tell her such before hand." She replied, fidgeting nervously under his gaze as her cheeks darkening before she held out a hand as she added "I'm Henrietta Crocell. It's nice to meet you Hosokawa-san."

"Nice to meet you as well, Crocell-san." Yukio replied as he accepted and shook her hand. Henrietta's cheeks darkening as she heard her friends chatting away, Yukio rolling his eyes as she smiled and added "Oh these are my friends: Siesta and Montomorency and you've already met Kirche."

"Yes I have. Nice to meet you both." Yukio replied with a friendly smile to the pair, who blushed back and said their own hellos.

"Erm... Yukio-san, it looks like Rias-san and Akeno-san are fighting again" Arisu pointed out as she signalled to the explosions, Yukio scratching the back of his neck embarrassed as he replied "I better get going then. See you ladies around."

With that Arisu, Georgia and Yukio headed towards the others and seeing Kiyome was also part of the fighting for some reason.

...

Yukio sighed in relief as he settled into one of the resort's hot springs that was for male guests, enjoying the moment of peace after he had somehow settled the argument between Kiyome, Akeno and Rias over who looked best to him. He managed to get them to realise they all looked attractive in whatever they wore although he had no idea who had started the argument amongst them.

"Haha~ I can't believe how easily the girls just calm down once you stepped in." Daisuke laughed as he sat opposite him in the hot spring, Shinji and Saji chuckling away while Gasper and Kiba smiled at being asked to join them.

"With how destructive Rias-san and Akeno-san can be, I kinda have to play peacemaker at times." Yukio retorted with a roll of his eyes as Kiba added with his usual smile "Well, they both are rather competitive at times."

Gasper nodded in agreement at remembering how the pair had suddenly got serious at Yukio's deal which earned Akeno's date with Yukio, although it hadn't happened yet.

"That's an understatement. They once had a tennis match with Sona-san and Tsubaki-sempai and they all broke their rackets." Saji snorted, drawing Shinji's arched eyebrow before deciding to change the topic "So when are you going to take out Akeno, after all you did offer her a date from what I heard."

"Probably when we head back into Kuoh..." Yukio replied with shrug, "I've been under bed arrest since after the Sports Day especially when my soul chain problem came up to them."

Shinji and Daisuke nodded in understanding, both knowing the most about the problems that could happen due to their own powers. Saji had been taught at lot from Keiko and Yukio as he developed his own Fullbringer powers alongside his Sacred Gear and so knew what could have happened would have devastated everyone else.

"I-I, erm, think that I'm going back to my room now." Gasper spoke as he got up, demurely holding onto the towel wrapped around his torso as Yukio nodded in understanding before Kiba added "I'll go with him."

"I better go catch up with Momo-san and Ruruko-chan, I said I'd get something to eat with them." Saji spoke with a hint of a blush on his cheeks as his three friends chuckled on amused before Shinji added "I should go see Seekvaira-chan as well, she wanted to go over ideas for the next Rating Game."

"Ah, I better get going as well then." Daisuke mused with a groan as he stood up.

"Alright, see you guys later then." Yukio replied as he let himself sink deeper into the hot spring as he let his eyes drift close and listened to them leave as Daisuke retorted "Don't stay in here too long, Yu. Don't want the girls worrying about ya."

"I won't... Just need some me time." Yukio replied as he opened one eye to regard his friend, watching the trio nod before leaving.

{You know they are only worried about you, son.} Masayuki spoke, Yukio shifting slightly in the hot spring as he replied quietly "I know... I'm just not use to it."

"We only want to make sure you're alright..." Kiyome spoke from the doorway, startling Yukio as he turned to see her holding a towel up in front of her nude form.

"Kiyome-chan!?" Yukio asked surprised, Kiyome smirking as she sauntered towards him and replied with her own question "You don't mind if I join you, do you Yukio-kun...? I wanted to spend some time alone with you."

Red crept over his cheeks as Kiyome sauntered forwards, her rabbit ears appearing atop of her head as he replied "Oh... Okay then."

Kiyome smiled as she discarded her towel, making Yukio's eyes bulge in surprise, before she sat down next to him and ensured that her chest was pressing against his arm as she spoke "You know, when I was young, Kaa-san told me how Wererabbits search for their destined one most of their lives. Only few manage to find them but most settle to find someone close to what their destined one is."

"I guess I'm as lucky as Kaa-san..." Kiyome mused, rubbing her cheek against his shoulder, "To find my destined one so easily."

"M-Me...?" Yukio asked surprised, Kiyome nodding as she moved to straddle his lap, "B-But why didn't you approach me before I was reincarnated? I mean sure you would have sensed it back then."

Kiyome loosely kept her arms around Yukio's neck, looking embarrassed as she averted her eyes and answered "Back then I didn't sense it fully... Whatever seal was on your powers before you joined Rias' peerage was interfering with your aura."

"Oh..." Yukio spoke in understanding before he was cut off by Kiyome's lips, turning it into a moan from the heated kiss.

"Oh my..." Gabriel spoke surprised, a towel tightly wrapped around her body as Kiyome and Yukio parted with a surprised jump as their faces reddened.

"Hey Yu-tan!" Serafall greeted cheerfully, bouncing on her feet as the towel wrapped around her body threatened to fall if not for the knot that held it together at the front.

"Sera-sama... Gabriel-sama." Yukio replied embarrassed, Kiyome also greeting the two female leaders as Serafall beamed a bright smile as she chuckled pervily "Let me join you two as well, Yu-tan."

Serafall was stopped as she slammed into an invisible wall, Yukio, Kiyome and Gabriel's eyes widening at seeing the faintly glowing kanji that lit up around the edge of the pool.

"What the...?" Serafall asked childishly, pouting annoyed as she let her hands run over the invisible barrier.

{Keiko put up a barrier so you could relax... Didn't want Yukio to be overwhelmed by female attention.} Sparda answered to the ears of everyone, Gabriel smiling in a caring way as she suggested "Let's go sit in another pool for now, Serafall-san."

"That's not fair... I want to cuddle up with Yu-tan." Serafall whined, surprised at seeing her hand bounce of the barrier after trying to hit it, Gabriel having moved to sit down in a nearby pool as she pointed out "It doesn't stop you from being able to talk to him."

Serafall still pouted as she moved to sit in the same pool as Serafall, Kiyome moving to sit next to Yukio - feeling slightly annoyed at being interrupted by the two leaders.

Author's Note

I'm sorry this chapter took so long to write although with this one done the start of the Loki Arc will be the next one. Kirche, Henrietta, Siesta and Montomorency are all from Familiar of Zero.

Can't think of what else to really put here at the moment aside from hope that you enjoy it.
