It was a peaceful morning, one that was normal in the land of the new Tokyo of japan. Well as normal as one can get with a giant clock tower in the middle of the town that was run by an insane man that was normally dressed in glaring white clothes and a cape. So yeah, normal day for everyone.
The day itself, so far, had been normal for many people, all the activities going on normally, people shopping, people working, the usual. However a certain purple haired female with a near permanent smile, a calm serene smile at that, walked through the north area of the town, heading back to her house. A silver haired woman next to her dressed in a black business suit while they talked over things that held little consequence to the normal world.
Now, I say normal because to these two, nearly nothing can be normal at all, having been found on, or finding an alien space ship tends to screw with someone's sense of normality. Yet here these two women are, calmly walking and talking as if everything was normal in the world.
"Takami-san, why exactly are we talking anyway? As I recall, you don't like being around me that much." The purple haired woman asked calmly to the other.
"Eh, it was either you or Minaka, personally, I prefer you to hi any day." Takami told her with a shrug. "How are things at Izumo anyway? Have enough tenants for yourself?"
"Oh, yes, things are doing well. The tenants are nice for lack of a better word. Takehito always wanted to be there full time; sadly he won't have that dream any longer." She said before looked down slightly sad at her husband's passing.
"I know, Miya, if I could have done something to help him I would have. I hope that someone can help fix your heart someday, it's not good to leave such a large hole in your life."
"Oh, you have the cracked egg though." Miya commented idly with a small mischievous tone in her voice.
"Tease all you want, you know I speak the truth. I know that there will be no one to replace Takehito, but I hope that there will be someone that you can care for just as much, as family." Takami told her while placing a hand gently on her shoulder to show she meant no harm by it.
"I know what you mean Takami, but it will be hard to see anyone like that. Especially after his death."
"I don't expect you to suddenly get over his death, I only want you to find someone that you can treat like family, it can be a brother or sister for all that matters, you just shouldn't be alone all the time, otherwise you will turn into a shrew, or some kind of evil hanya like many considered Takehito at times." Takami spoke softly, not wanting to anger Miya at all.
"It is kind of you Takami, but you know that it's not that easy to do. What exactly was it that you wanted other than to try and get me to find someone else?" she asked her walking partner.
"You got me, I wanted to ask if you could let Yukari stay while she took the entrance exams for collage, I would normally send her to stay with Minato, but…" she trailed off.
"If she obeys the rules, I don't mind. She will not need to pay if she only stays for the exams just so you know. Otherwise she will need to pay for the month and any more that she plans on staying." Miya told her getting a nod.
"I don't think she will stay for longer, the girl is rather independent as it is. I just wanted to make sure she had a place to go to when she got here so that she and I didn't have to worry about it for now." Takami said to the woman getting a nod.
"Well, if she chooses to stay for a bit, she will have a room at Maison Izumo." Miya said with a gently smile. "I'm sorry Takami, but this is where we must part, you have work to do while I must return to the inn."
"It was nice talking with you again Miya, hope it stays nice over there." Takami said as she gave a one handed wave to the woman as she turned and kept walking from her.
"You as well Takami." Miya spoke as well.

A man was staring at a single large screen in front of his desk mounted on the wall. The reason that he was staring at the screen was actually somewhat shocking for him, let alone the woman that had entered the room shortly after he started to stare at it. The screen showed a large two digits on it, both digits flashing rapidly. These digits where something that they had never thought that they would ever see again, ever since the one that bore the number had sacrificed herself for a young girl that she had rescued.
"Would you care to explain… JUST HOW IS SHE STILL ACTIVE AFTER LOSING HER CORE?" the man calmly started before he yelled out as he pointed at the screen.
"What are you talking about Minaka?" the woman asked him with a confused look on her face.
"Number 8, Yume, she is still active, how is she still active let alone the fact that we couldn't find her after so long. It has been nearly 11 years since she sacrificed her core for number 88 to live. Where has she been, how is she still alive, how have we not found her before now?" he stated still pointing at the two numbers on the screen.
"I have no idea what you are talking about Minaka. How could she be active after this long with no core? And what do you mean by having found her?"
"What I mean is that she just suddenly shown up, as if she was hiding and was just winged. I have no idea how she could survive for so long without a core, but she has. Not only that but she has somehow evaded our sensors around the entire city all this time. We can't even get a fix on her signal anywhere, it's like she is the very air or light, or even the ground. Her signal is everywhere, when we get a fix, it suddenly moves to the other side of the town, then it goes up into the sky, then deep into the ground, one time it just vanished, without moving at all then appeared right back where it was." The man said in a frantic panic.
Staring wide eyed at what the man had just said, the woman son ran over to the terminal that was connected to the screen and started to punch in numbers and buttons, hoping to get a fix on her location, only for what the man had said to be proven true. When she got a location, it either moved or ceased to exist for several seconds to a full minute before it shown up again in the exact same spot then moved.
"Takami, do you know what is going on?" Minaka asked her calming down enough to talk normally.
"No… this is unheard of. We have the best sensors in the world. We are the only ones that can track the sekirei at all. How is this even possible let alone happening?" she spoke before asking, seemingly no one.

A silver haired, exhausted looking woman snapped her eyes open when she felt something that she hadn't for many years now. The feeling of her energy balancing out and calming down, the only time that had ever happened was when her former captain and partner during the second squads days was alive.
"How… Yume, how are you alive?" she wondered out loud confusing the two trainees that were with her.
"um, Karasuba, what are you talking about?" a pink haired girl asked wondering while the other silver haired woman with a set of large clawed gauntlets rose an eyebrow in agreement.
"A person that we all had thought was dead. It seems that she has somehow come back to the land of the living." Their leader told them confusing them even more than before as they blinked.
"Huh?" the pink one sounded out.
"Nothing you should worry about. Even if we were sent after her, there is nothing that you two could do to her. She was the second captain while I am the third." Karasuba told them causing their eyes to widen minutely at this.
ZZ
"Oh my, what could be causing this?" Miya wondered as she placed a hand on her cheek while tilting her head, looking out at the yard to see a massive and oddly moving beam of light shooting around erratically, having only shot into the yard seconds ago before it shot off again. "Hentai glasses… what do you know of this?" she asked a duck that sat on her countertop.
"Ah~ Miya-tan, why so mean?" the duck voiced back. "This light seems to be connected to a sekirei, number 08, Yume. She has been gone for a little over a decade now, no one knows where she is, was, or could have been for all this time. She gave her core to a young one to help heal her. Everyone thought that she was dead, even her longtime partner and counterpart, Karasuba."
"Oh my, this is big. Do you know where she is now then?"
"That's just the thing, not only do I not know, MBI can't get a lock on her location. It's like she is a spirit that has come to haunt us. There is no way that we can get a fix until she stops moving around this much."
ZZ
Standing on the clock tower, Minaka watched as the large pillar of light shot around the city, sometimes moving lower, some higher, but always moving unless it suddenly vanished. "This light, it has to be something to do with number 8. But what does it mean and what is it doing?" he asked himself while he watched, not taking his eyes off the light for even one second to blink.
"Minaka, what is it that you are thinking now?" Takami asked him as she walked up behind him.
"Takami -chan, I think that this will that someone is going to enter the playing field that we had never expected before." He told her without even a single glance back.
Sighing to herself, Takami turned around and started to head into the tower, only to stop when she noticed that the light had appeared directly in front of her causing her to look at it in wonder. The light stayed there for several seconds, before a smiling face shown inside it to her shock. The face she saw was one that she remembered very clearly, it was the face of the number 08 sekirei, Yume. Before her face vanished and the beam of light went on further, she saw Yume wink at her as if she knew something that neither she nor Minaka knew, and it rattled her slightly.
Looking at the ground in front of her, Takami noted that there was now a series of odd script lining the floor of the roof and going all the way to the edge where the light went off. Not being able to read it at all, she tried taking a picture, tried being the keyword. When the camera flashed and she looked at the picture in the camera's history, all she saw was a regular roof, the ground in front of where she stood, on the camera, was blank, as if nothing was there at all.

Watching the large beam of light was actually rather interesting as a certain woman had found out from her seat on an unfinished skyscraper in the middle of the northwestern part of the town. When it hit the people in the streets it seemed to faze right through them, not doing anything to harm them and leaving a solid line of text behind in its wake, none of it touching the humans at all.
Wanting to test something, the woman sat still, perfectly still, as the beam came at her in a straight line. Unmoving save for placing more sake in a dish that she held and drinking it, she watched as it grew closer and closer until it suddenly came to an abrupt stop mere inches from her face causing her to blink at it amusedly as it seemed to have been playing with her for a moment before it shot off to the right, as if it was making sure not to touch her at all.
"Hmm, odd ball of light we have there." She commented idly to herself as she watched it go. Her little test was essentially broken due to it not touching her at all. She had noticed that when it came near anyone that was related to MBI in any way that it either stopped, vanished or moved around them in some way.

Miya was looking out at the yard from her spot on the porch of her house as she looked at the light that had returned to the inn shortly after it had traversed several times around the entire city as if it were making or looking for something. She didn't care to pay enough attention to the fact that it was leaving behind script since it wasn't doing anything harmful anywhere.
As she looked at it, a woman, looking nearly the same age as Miya herself, stepped up behind the landlady with a curious look on her face.
"Miya-tan, it seems that Yume-tan has decided to stop jumping around so much. We finally have a lock on her, though it isn't steady and keeps flickering back and forth with nothing. That light, it's her." The woman told her getting a slight nod.
"I see Matsu, thank you. I have a feeling we will be getting a new tenant shortly." Miya told her.
"Oh, Miya, what's with the light?" a male asked as he walked up to the two women.
"Oh, just someone that has been gone for a long while. She may be joining us here Kagari." Miya told him in response before the light suddenly burst outwards sending the two others against the wall as Miya bent her knees to give her a better grip so as to stay steady.
"Miya…" Matsu called out to her as she hit the wall hard.
"The pressure is very strong isn't it Matsu?" the woman asked calmly despite the amount of force that was being sent out at them all at once.
Running was heard as a woman came out of the hall before she too was forced to stay to the wall while she looked at the light. This woman, unlike the other two, wasn't wearing a dress or kimono type outfit, but rather was wearing a long/short sleeved purple and red shirt with a yellow star directly in the middle of her chest, a large number 10 on her back, a pair of half leg pants as well to complete the look.
"Miya, just what is going on?" she asked strained as she looked at the light surrounded form of Miya, all the three could actually see of Miya was her shadow covered back from the light that was being shot out from in front of them.
"A guest." Was all the reply that was given, and even then it seemed to be slightly forced from how she positioned herself and the pressure from the light.
Before any more talk could be issued, a large amount of chains and ropes shot from the ground, constricting around the light before it started to force it to recede until it was only a long slender, human sized, beam of light that pierced the clouds above and cleared any darkness that was around it away easily. They started to hear a clear cracking sound, one that could be associated with the sound of glass getting cracked by something, before the light suddenly shattered along with the things holding it.
When the light shattered, the pressure was suddenly taken away causing the four to either fall, or jump from the amount of force they were pushing out while trying not to get hurt at all by the lights force. Shaking their heads to regain their focus, the group looked at the area before they saw that several sections of the yard and, looking further, the entire city, were being lit up and seemed to be moving very fast before it unraveled fully and vanished.
"Ugh, that was very unpleasant. Note to self, horrible way to travel, hurts like hell." They heard a distinctly male voice say from the spot in the yard. Looking up they saw that there was now a human looking male kneeling in front of them while seemingly catching his breath from how he got there in the first place. A black bomber jacket was over a white shirt, the numbers 8.9 on it with what they knew for a fact as a sekirei mark on his chest. A pair of brown denim pants above a pair of black combat boots.
"Who are you sir?" Miya asked as she walked up to him, waiting for him to stand for his answer.
"Give me a minute here lady. Hard to adjust right now." He told her as he started to stand up slowly. As he stood they could hear distinct pops and cracks coming from him, very loudly I might add.
Suddenly a small group landed in the yard alarming the four while he simply looked at them from the corner of his eye. "You are to come with us. We have questions for you." A silver haired woman told him.
"Karasuba, you know that you are forbidden to set foot on these grounds." Miya told her.
"I am not here for this Miya, I am here for Yume. Where is she?" Karasuba asked the man in front of her after telling Miya.
"Take a look for yourself." Was all the man said before a woman shown behind him, seemingly hugging him as she appeared, giving a light wave at them as they saw her.
"You will come with us human, or else." She spoke harshly as she saw the woman behind him.
"Karasuba, I advise you to leave… now." Miya said as she noted the hard look that was being given to her former teammate from both, the woman and the man that was in front of both of them.
"Miya, I already told you… urk." She started before she was sent flying away by a strong and powerful blow. Her flight was soon joined by the other two that was with her, one looking at this whole thing with a casual air as she flew, the other screaming all the way until they slammed against the clock tower miles away, narrowly missing a man dressed in white.
"I don't take kindly to someone I just met telling me what to do, nor do I to threats, Miya right?" the man said before he questioned as if making sure while he pointed at her.
"Yes, I am Miya Asama. This is Maison Izumo, a boarding house." She told him calmly.
"You can see her can't you?" the man suddenly asked out of the blue.
"If you mean the woman behind you… yes." She said with a firm nod.
"Naruto-kun, this is Miya, the first leader of the squad I told you about, the one that you just sent flying was my old teammate and partner, Karasuba. If I am right, based on these two seeing me, then all sekirei can essentially see me with you. I will not be totally sure until we meet others and test this theory out more." Yume told him softly.
"Right Yume -chan. Well, Miya -chan, let me introduce myself, I am Naruto Uzumaki. I will explain more once we are inside if you will." He told her getting a nod from her as she turned and headed into the building, Matsu already having left when she saw the disciplinary squad in the yard, the other two having started heading inside after Naruto had sent them flying.
XNOTEX
Chakra constructs anything to do with shape, not element change. So he could form dragon out of the light if he wanted, chains, ropes, and balls of light that can incinerate people, whatever he actually wants. He is the unpredictable ninja for a reason.
Things like the zanpakuto, no I don't think I will have him doing that. Yes, it would be amusing at times to see him actually spar with Miya or clash with Karasuba using a sword, however I don't see him actually using it outside of being fair and even with those two or Mutsu. So no, I don't actually have him with one.
Leaf bashing, no, just that he doesn't like most of the village, doesn't see eye to eye with them over Sasuke getting the position instead of Naruto, who saved the village several times, and nearly risked his life more times than almost any other ninja ever did. So no, bashing will not take place in this; in fact the only time that they will actually play a major part in this is in the first chapter, the prologue.
Not sure what you mean by him losing his core. His chakra was converted into a veritable tama/ sekirei core, in terms only. He will not actually deactivate if he takes a large amount of damage, nor will he be terminated if he crest is touched. His power is like Yume in a way, while also like Musubi as well. He only has a lot more. The idea was more that she was accidently sealed into him as well, thus giving him a family figure that raised him, and looked after him as he grew, something that had not been done as of yet. If that was unclear, sorry.
I actually seemed not to verify exactly how strong he would be when he truly fought. When he actually fights, for real, he is nearly on Miya's level, more on terms with Yume more likely than not. When he releases his full power and doesn't control it, then the pressure alone is on Miya's level. Only she can actually stand against it. He is as strong and fast as Yume, if not slightly more so in terms of speed.
Yukari, and Akitsu, I am taking under consideration. Akitsu may not be in with him as a more prominent person, there are a few with her like that already, Yukari, and there is only a couple with her in any way liking him, including my own crystal chain ashikabi story. Her and Chiho are both under consideration for an actual more major role than most, Chiho is under the same boat as Yukari with only a couple for her as well.
Also, if you have a problem with comments about nudity or clothes ripping off for seemingly no reason, keep in mind that, as far as I know, none of the women in the show and manga actually wear anything under their top, most don't give a fuck if people see them naked, one claims she forgets her panties, and nearly every single sekirei dresses skimpy, showing off their breasts, ass, or their entire body, only because either the ashikabi asked them to, or Minaka stated it was fine. If you don't like these things, then I suggest that you don't read this at all, mainly because I won't give a damn if they are in there, like so many others in this section.
And so that people know this, if they care to read this that is, even if I watch and or read the show and manga, the characters will still be out of it for some of it. I know that there are people that don't agree with how I am taking this up, having not read or watched either, but honestly, I place my take on how they act and that is what I will do, no matter if I have done 'research' as some call it. The wiki does no really help me since it only gives vague clues at best on how they act or talk. Hell, the only way to know for sure what they act like is to ask the author, of the original series, otherwise, you will never gain the right idea. Personally I don't plan on finding the lady that made the sekirei manga and asking her. I doubt that I speak the right language for that anyway.
