To Love Ru: Xenomorph
Chapter 3:- A new possible caretaker?
Opening Theme:- デストピア - GLAY
-Within the next day in the morning as Momo was getting ready to leave for school early, she was at the front door, putting on her shoes-
Rito: Hmm? Momo? You're gonna leave so soon? It's still early though.
Momo: I have class duties to attend to~
Rito: I see. Well take care of yourself and be safe, all right?
Momo: Okay~ Bye bye! -She left the house as Rito watched her left from the door as he was waving at her goodbye and saw her left, he would then close the door and then enter the house once more- Ah~ Rito-san is so sweet~
Kei: Sw..eet? -He asked as he was walking beside her-
Momo: Oh yeah, you don't know what that means but you catch on quick, huh?
Kei: Catch...on..?
Momo: I find it interesting that you're a very quick learner, even more of a quick learner than I am. You can say a whole sentence, paragraphs, write and read and you learnt all of that in just one night.
Kei: Good..?
Momo: It's great! Though you still need a lot of training and taming.
Kei: Taming..?
Momo: You ask way too many questions..
Kei: S..-Sorry..
Momo: -She would look at him as his expression was still the same but Momo looked at his eyes from the side and could tell that he seemed slightly depressed, which surprised Momo to see that a Xenomorph has emotions- I-I didn't mean it in a bad way! Just that..Y-You know.. I gotta take care of you from now on unless I can find someone who can watch over you and is a better caretaker than I am, since I need to help Rito-san with his Harem.
Kei: Ri..To..
Momo: Hmm? Yes! Yes! That's his name! Yuuki Rito-san! You can say his name after all~! -She smiled happily as she seemed excited that Kei could say Rito's name- Come come. Say something else about him! -She said to Kei excitedly-
Kei: I...Don't like him.
Momo: Eh? -Momo stopped walking as Kei was walking ahead and looked back at her as he was wondering why she stopped walking but Momo was in shock to hear that Kei didn't like Rito but Momo came to an assumption that he said his words wrongly as she shook her head and then continued walking with Kei as she then thought to herself- "I need to ask Mikado-sensei if she knows anything about Kei or anything else about the Xenomorphs. Yami-san only knows about their instinctive movements and battle types but not their overall personality and studies..This is gonna be a problem if he goes berserk and kills Rito-san if he actually doesn't like him.."
-Hours later in school and after their homeroom session, Momo and Kei went to the infirmary to see Mikado and as they went, they saw Yami, Celine with Mikado-
Momo: Yami-san? I didn't know you were here.
Yami: Princess Lala asked me to bring Celine here.
Momo: I see. Well Mikado-sensei, I have a few questions that I need to ask you.
Mikado: Regarding your little pet?
Momo: Y-Yes but he's not my pet.
Mikado: But he belongs to you, yes?
Momo: Y-Yeah..For now.
Mikado: For now?
Momo: I'm not planning on keeping him with me for long, I just took care of him until he is capable of taking care of himself.
Mikado: What did you do for him? -She asked as she giggled softly as she saw Celine was sitting on Kei's lap and was playing with him as he was sitting on the floor and was next to Yami-
Momo: I'm just teaching him on how to speak, read and write along with communicating but so far he's only communicated with me.
Mikado: Perhaps he's more fond of you.
Momo: Me? I doubt it.
Mikado: Are you really sure?
Momo: Yes, I am- wait! Let's just get back to topic! I need to know, are Xenomorphs adaptable?
Mikado: Very. I've been studying them for nearly 3 years. Though I've only studied their personalities while Yami-chan studied their instincts and movements and Tearju studied on their swarm.
Momo: I just need to know their personalities. If a Xenomorph comes to dislike someone or something else and not see it as prey, what would it do?
Mikado: Kill.
Momo: Eh?
Mikado: Let's say that he(Kei) dislikes Yami-chan or despises her, he would have killed her in a second when you opened the door. Their intent to kill is very unstable.
Momo: What do you mean by that?
Mikado: They kill whatever they dislike to make their lives more better and it becomes less stressful for them to not see something they hate. Oh and what is his name?
Momo: Kei-san. Kei Ling.
Yami: Kei? Was it not Ling?
Momo: I gave him the name "Kei" because calling him Ling is just something I'm not fond of.
Mikado: You already gave him a name, huh? Doesn't that mean that he belongs to you~?
Momo: Eh? Does it?
Yami: It's the same way of naming an animal. You named him, he belongs to you and no one else.
Momo: Is that how this world works? It's much different than home..
Mikado: Your family names pets but then gets rid of them afterwards sometimes, that does not apply to the Human world. Though why are you worried that he might kill someone? He seems quite harmless, he's not even hurting Celine nor is he eating her.
Momo: T-The problem is that he said he didn't like Rito-san..
Yami: He said that?
Mikado:...H-He did?
Momo: Yeah, this morning. Though he didn't kill him, he just happened to say that he didn't like him when I asked him how he does he see Rito-san.
Mikado: Perhaps..He's jealous of Rito-kun?
Momo: What do you mean?
Mikado: It's obvious that you like him, right?
Momo: -She would blush madly and get nervous- W-What are you even saying?!
Mikado: You're not even denying it~ I can only assume that Ling-kun is jealous but he doesn't want to kill Rito-kun for himself but wants you to be happy. Am I right, Ling-kun? -She asked Kei as she turned to him as he would look at Mikado and nod slowly- Oh? He says I'm right.
Yami: He replied to Mikado-sensei..?
Mikado: So he sees me as a superior controller and a threat after Momo-chan, huh?
Momo: How can you tell if a Xenomorph is fond of something else that is not related to its kind?
Yami: Number 1 is that it won't kill you but will protect you from danger of any sort and number 2, if it is comfortable with the scent that the person or item is creating.
Momo: What do you mean by scent?
Mikado: Your own smell, it's the same with dogs when they track, they can smell your scent as each individual person has their own scent, you can tell from the clothes they wear or their bed where they sleep mostly.
Momo: Is that it?
Mikado: There's also Blood Transfers.
Momo: B-Blood Transfers?
Yami: It is when a Xenomorph had a taste of a person's blood or flesh, if it is very fond of the taste and flavouring, it would save it, if not, it would have ate it all in one go.
Momo: I don't understand..
Mikado: You shared your blood with him, didn't you?
Momo: E-Eh? N-No..?
Mikado: I can see a sort of hickey or a bite mark on your neck.
Momo: ! -She would blush madly as she covered her neck and look away- This is..Just..
Yami: Since you shared your blood with him and that you're still alive, it would mean that your blood is pure and he likes it. What else has he eaten or drink?
Momo: He drank a bit of water but he drank my blood last night.
Mikado: Ah yes, Xenomorphs can survive without eating for a week but they'll be get weaker if they don't eat once a day. Be sure to give him meat or blood once a day. Doesn't matter when, just once a day.
Momo: O-Okay.
Yami: Did he suck on your blood like a Vampire in those fantasy books?
Momo: He did..
Mikado: Oh? Rather aggressive. If he was a normal Xenomorph, he would have eaten you alive, though for some odd reason, he seems more friendlier and perhaps less aggressive than the Xenomorphs that we've been studying and the ones we saw.
Yami: I know that there are other clans of Xenomorphs, perhaps he belongs to a more friendlier part of the Xenomorphs.
Mikado: Or that he's just genetically different than the others. Is it okay if I have a sample from him?
Momo: A sample?
Mikado: Like a strain of his hair or blood? Though blood would be more efficient for scanning.
Momo: I don't mind but you would have to ask for his permission first.
Kei: I..Do not...Mind. -He said as he looked at everyone and the girls were quite surprised to hear him respond-
Mikado: I'm sure you have been stabbed before or something so I don't think this will hurt. -She got close to Kei as her cleavage was exposed greatly to him but he paid no attention to her breast but look at the needle that Mikado was holding as she pressed it on his arm and got some blood out of him- ...This is very strange..
Yami: Indeed.
Momo: What is?
Yami: The part that he has red blood like all of us instead of green blood like all other Xenomorphs.
Mikado: I'll do some analysis tonight. -She would then look closely into Kei's bright green eyes as she was trying to study him by learning from his eyes. From the sight, Momo was not pleased by it as she then walked over to the two and pushed them away from each other slowly as she was blushing slightly-
Momo: O-Okay! T-That's enough of you two, Kei-san. Let's head back to class, we're about to have our next class.
Kei: Yes..
-Momo and Kei then left as Yami was still in the room with Mikado-
Mikado: You're not gonna go?
Yami: The next lesson is PE. I'm not one to take part of that. So what is it that you have found out about him?
Mikado: Well, from his eyes, he is a pure Xenomorph all right but he is much more intelligent than the other Xenomorphs. Though I'm not completely sure if I am accurate but I think he has emotions.
Yami: I thought Xenomorphs do not have emotions but the intention to kill and eat?
Mikado: That's what I thought too, though he is much different. I suggest you keep an eye on him in case he does anything dangerous and ask Mea-chan to help you if you can.
Yami: Why must I ask for Mea's assistance?
Mikado: Yami-chan.
Yami: ?
Mikado: This Xenomorph could possibly be even stronger than a Queen, and you alone have do not have the power to stop him if he attacks anyone. Even if Lala-chan or Nana-chan were to help or with Oshizu-chan's telekinesis, I doubt it could do as much damage as you two sisters.
Yami: I..I understand.
-During PE lesson as Momo and Kei were sitting under a tree, watching the girls play volleyball while the guys were playing football, Nana would then join the two and sit next to Kei-
Nana: Jeez, it's so hot! So you're an Alien like us, huh? -She asked Kei-
Momo: ?!
Nana: What sort of Alien are you~? You look so cool with that long spiky tail of yours! It's almost like a Lizards! I love it!
Kei: I...Am just..
Nana: "Just"..?
Kei: A normal Alien...Like everyone...Else..
Nana: Oh~ That's nice, you don't talk much, huh? I guess it suits you, since you have that bad boy look with you. How come you're so close with Momo anyway?
Momo: Ah! I showed him around the town and school!
Nana: Really now? No wonder~
Momo: Nana?
Nana: Hmm?
Momo: Did Onee-sama tell you anything last night?
Nana: Nothing. Except for just sharing some cake with her, why?
Momo: Nothing, I was just curious.
Nana: Okay? Oh! And why were you stuck in your room during the whole night? It's like you didn't want to come down and hang out with everyone!
Momo: I-I had...I had homework!
Nana: No we don't. We're in the same class! We did not have any homework yesterday!
Momo: Well I was...
-Momo was panicking slightly as Kei moved his tail around Nana and poked the side of her stomach to distract her as it tickled Nana. Nana then noticed that Kei was poking her with his tail as she would then poke his side and Kei would flinch slightly, having Momo to realise that Kei had a ticklish side-
Nana: What's up with the poking?!
Kei: I...Was bored..
Nana: Oh~? So you wanna play that game, huh? -She then smirked as she started poking the sides of Kei's stomach as he was smiling softly and was giggling a little as Kei would then poke Nana's sides as well-
Momo: -She then thought to herself- "So...He can smile and laugh after all..He's kinda cute when he smiles and laughs.."
-The girls noticed that Kei was laughing and smiling as most of them just stopped playing and just screamed and squealed loudly at the sight of Kei smiling and laughing as they found him innocently adorable while most of the guys were slightly jealous that he was so close with Nana and Momo and were getting the attention of the other girls-
Momo: "Perhaps I can entrust his care with Nana, though I do not want to handle the fact that she might panic when she finds out that he's actually a Xenomorph, though she's taken care of many other Alien Beasts in her virtual world and are raising them, perhaps she's better suited to take care of him than me.., Eh? I don't feel comfortable with this decision..I wonder why.." -She thought to herself as she was looking at Nana and Kei playing with each other until Kei accidentally pushed Nana down as he was on top of her, Nana's face turned completely red. Momo knew that in that sort of situation, Nana would shout or scream and then push the person that was on top of her away immediately but for some odd reason, Nana was not pushing him away but instead was just looking away- "It's the same as me! Even when he's on top of me like that, I don't know why but I just can't and don't want to push him away!" -She thought to herself as she was slightly irritated to see Kei on top of Nana as Momo then grabbed Kei's shirt and pulled him away from Nana- Apologise to her.
Kei: I...I am sorry..
Nana: N-No! Don't be! Hahaha... -She was laughing nervously as then thought to herself- "He's no ordinary Alien! I don't know why but I can't get him out of my head now! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Why did I have to tickle him?! None of this would have happen if it I didn't go after him just because I thought it would be fun! Wait..Fun?"
-At the end of the day as Momo and Nana were heading home with Lala, Rito and Celine while Kei took a different path. Momo would walk next to Nana-
Nana: Too close..
Momo: Tonight after dinner, come over to my room, I need to ask you something.
Nana: Why?
Momo: Just come over, this is only between us sisters.
Nana: Then what about Onee-chan?
Momo: Not her. Just us younger siblings.
Nana: Okay then..?
-Later on that night after dinner as Momo was in her room with Kei as he was reading a dictionary. Nana then entered the room and saw Kei was in the room as Nana was about to shout but Momo quickly grabbed her and pinned her onto the bed-
Nana: ?!
Momo: Shhh! Be quiet! -She then moved her hand away from Nana's mouth-
Nana: W-Why is Ling here?!
Momo: Just be quiet! Jeez..
Nana: Care to explain?
Momo: You know that he's an Alien, right?
Nana: Yeah?
Momo: He's a Xenomorph.
Nana: A Xeno..Eh? What?
Momo: Our family's nemesis Alien race.
Nana: Oh. Wait! What?!
Momo: Shh! Look! He doesn't have a Queen and he has no home so I've been taking care of him for these past few days now.
Nana: What's your point?
Momo: You've taken care of other Alien beasts, before so I was wondering if its okay if you can watch over him?
Nana: Why me? You're already taking care of him, you can't just dump him to me...? -She said as she then looked at Kei who was reading the dictionary intently as Nana blushed slightly- L-Look! You should be the one that takes care of him instead! I just can't...I mean who knows what might happen if I put him in the virtual world!
Momo: You don't have to put him in the virtual world. I just need you to take care of him since you're better with animals and beasts than I am..
Nana: I guess that's true but.. Does anyone else know about this?
Momo: Mikado-sensei and Yami-san along with you and me, just the four of us know that he's a Xenomorph or maybe Mea-san knows too but she just didn't want to say anything.
Nana: Not surprised since she didn't say anything about him since he transferred. -She would then sigh as she then scratched her head softly and sit on Momo's bed with her legs crossed as she looked at Kei, who was sitting on the floor, next to Momo's bed- I guess I can take care of him but whatever happens, you're the one who takes responsibility of him, okay?
Momo: All right, I will! And thank you! Thank you so much!
Nana: What does he eat, drink and how much food does he need?
Momo: He eats once a day.
Nana: Once a day? Wow..
Momo: Only meat or blood is enough, not too much though.
Nana: B-Blood? Like a Vampire?
Momo: Similar.
Nana: What else?
Momo: That's it and he also needs to be watched over, just in case he goes berserk and starts killing people or something.
Nana: W-What?!
Momo: Xenomorphs are bug-type Aliens, they kill to eat and stuff or they kill to make their lives easier to get rid of something they dislike, is what Yami-san and Mikado-sensei said.
Nana: I see. Though he seems more attached to you since he's been with you since he transferred, are you sure you want me to to watch over him?
Momo: What do you mean?
Nana: I mean, look at him. He seems more comfortable here, with you. It'll be like throwing away a pet that you love so much.
Momo: I guess you're right but let's just try this for a day and see how it goes, perhaps he will like you?
Nana: -She would blush slightly as she got embarrassed- W-What do you mean by that?
Momo: Oh nothing~ Kei-san?
Kei: Y..Yes..?
Nana: Kei? I thought his name was Ling?
Momo: He only had one name so I gave him another word as a name, Kei Ling.
Nana: Ah all right then.
Momo: Tonight you'll be staying with Nana, okay? Let's see if you're comfortable being with her, though your routine to go to school and such and after school would still be the same, okay?
Kei: O..Kay..
Nana: He's cute, though I wish you'd tell me why you don't want to take care of him.
Momo: It's not that I don't want to..I just..I just can't..
Nana: Well..If you say so.. Kei? Let's go. -She got up from Momo's bed and went out of the door as Kei followed Nana as Kei's eyes showed a slightly depressed emotion though before the door closed, Nana came back in- Has he eaten yet?
Momo: Not yet, though I think it would be a good choice to just feed him with your blood for now.
Nana: M-My blood?!
Momo: Just let him do the work, it doesn't hurt. Trust me, he sucked on my blood. -She showed Nana where the hickey bite mark was on her neck as Nana was slightly worried- Don't worry, it seriously doesn't hurt. He won't do it for long, it'll be like a minute and he won't ask for anything else until the next day.
Nana: O-Okay then.. -She then left the room and went to her room and as she went into her room, she saw that Kei was watching the television in her room that she had left on. She would giggle slightly at the sight of him watching TV as she thought that he was like a child- Hey, Kei?
Kei: Hmm?
Nana: Are you hungry?
Kei: A...Little..
Nana: It's already 7pm so I guess it's a good time for you to eat. Y-You can have my blood but just d-d-don't make a mess out of it..! -She said as she sat down on her bed and was looking away from him as she was blushing madly as she was holding onto the sleeve of her shirt that she pulled down, a slight peek of her nipple could be seen but Kei ignored whatever distraction and was looking at her neck as he turned down the volume of the TV and went to Nana as he pinned her down on the bed as Nana was looking at him as she was surprised to see him pin her down like that. It was then he would sink his teeth into Nana's shoulder lightly as he started sucking a little bit of blood out from her as Nana was squirming a little and was shaking but was moaning loudly as he was sucking her blood, Nana's face turned even redder as she covered her mouth and moaned even more so and was getting slightly teary, though she didn't feel like she was suffering in pain but she felt arouse in so many ways that once Kei stopped and licked his lip from sucking her blood, she would breath heavily and look at him closely in the eye and noticed him showing some sort of emotion in his eyes- D-Don't get the wrong idea...I-I'm just doing this because Momo asked me..
Kei: I...See..
-TO BE CONTINUED-
