Chapter Sixteen: Discovery


Mugen Kano, Infirmary, Two Days Later


Jinn sighed as he looked down at his currently comatose girlfriend, holding her hand within his own, her surgery had went off without a hitch and they informed him that she may be unconscious for a period of time due to the head trauma she experienced, and they weren't sure how her mental faculties would be when she woke up. "Hanami-chan…" he whispered softly as his free hand gently brushed a strand of her silver hair off of her face. "Please… be alright…"

"Hanami-chan!" a pair of new voices rang through the air simultaneously as a man and a woman burst into the room.

Jinn blinked as he looked up at the two adults who entered. "Can I… help you?" he asked hesitantly.

Instead the man practically ignored Jinn as he rushed to Hanami's side, planting his hands on her bed with a downcast expression. The woman was more reserved, letting out a sigh and quietly walking to Hanami's side. "I'm Setsuna Yukikaze, Hanami's mother. I apologize for the intrusion… but we just had to see her."

"Dammit, where did we go wrong, Setsu-koi?" the man banged his fist against the wall, startling the others in the room. "How did we raise our daughter up only for her to join this kind of life?"

"That's my husband, Akihiro Yukikaze," Setsuna introduced, wincing again as her husband slammed his fist on the wall again. "Darling, let Hanami-chan have her rest…"

"The doctor said she was out of danger," Jinn informed. "She experienced some head trauma so we're not sure when she'll wake up."

"I'm gonna go punch that Hisanaga-teme again," Akihiro muttered as he made to leave the room, only for his wife to grab him by the arm to restrain him.

"Don't overdo it, darling. It was a… a battlefield, we can't blame him for Hanami-chan being injured on a battlefield. You should know that…" Setsuna shook her head gently.

"…Fine," Akihiro grumbled, settling down on a nearby chair.

"It's best you don't try to hit Ryu-nii again," Jinn informed. "He has a policy of only one hit for those who are grieving"

"Ryu-nii? He's your brother?" Setsuna asked. "Does that mean… you were there with her during the battle?"

Jinn nodded. "I was partnered with Hanami-chan during the battle," he informed, clenching his fists tightly. "I was supposed to keep the enemy units off of her while she bombarded the enemy base… but… the enemy we were against was an Ace pilot and far more experienced than myself, Ryu-nii was unable to give us proper sniper support and Kira, Ryu-nii's wife and founder of Fenrir, was occupied with several enemy units…"

"Teme…!" Akihiro started to get up, but Setsuna shot him a glare that forced him back down. "…Argh… Who did it? Who hurt my dear daughter?"

"Andrew Waltfeld, the Desert Tiger," Jinn informed, looking away a bit, a regretful look on his face. "And I already killed him."

Akihiro visibly relaxed at the statement. "Good, good… Wait, you mean you took out THE Desert Tiger!?" Another look from his wife cowed him and he added in a more quiet tone, "How did you…?"

"I… I'm not sure, I… I was just so… angry when Hanami-chan was hit…" he informed in a quiet voice. "Everything just kinda went red afterwards…"

"Ara ara, you call her Hanami-chan?" Setsuna smiled, having caught the suffix Jinn had added to her daughter's name. "Is there something going on here…?"

There was a short pause before Akihiro sprang to his feet again. "I'll freaking kill you if you lay your hands on my daught-"

"Ara ara, darling, yelling in the infirmary and threatening to kill Hanami-chan's boyfriend are… impolite," Setsuna chuckled in a ladylike manner with a hand covering her mouth while a spectral Noh mask suddenly materialized behind her in a manner very reminiscent to that of Hanami's. Her husband retreated into his seat with cold sweat pouring down his brow.

Jinn blinked twice. "So that's where she gets it from," Jinn commented, unfazed.

Setsuna looked a little surprised that Jinn was able to resist it, but caught herself regardless and smiled. "She's my dear daughter indeed if she can do it," she nodded, giggling when she caught her husband developing even more cold sweat at the thought.

Jinn blinked, before he shrugged. "Yes, I am dating your daughter," he informed. "And you should be proud of her, she… she's the bravest, most selfless person I have ever met."

"Still, I'm having trouble imagining our Hanami-chan as brave… What happened to her since she joined Fenrir? I never recalled her being the adventurous type," Setsuna remotely materialized a smaller mask right in front of Akihiro when he tried to get up again without even looking at him. "She used to be so shy all the time."

Jinn bit his lip slightly as he considered what to say. "It started back in Heliopolis, we had made a plan to steal the mobile suits that Morgenroete was building for OMNI, only…" he let out a small sigh. "ZAFT had attacked and when we went to steal the mobile suits, apparently a ZAFT pilot managed to get in before Hanami-chan could and she ended up shooting him in her panic… that was when, well, she unconsciously developed a second personality, we call her Kagami, to deal with the stress, forgetting completely about shooting the pilot, and she came out whenever Hanami-chan became too stressed, Kagami ended up piloting the Exodus during our trip to Earth and in a battle against a rogue OMNI ship and here in Africa."

"That's… interesting, Hisanaga-kun. That explains everything…" Setsuna mused, checking on her husband out of the corner of her eye. "So… I believe it is traditional for the father to do this… but… I think my darling would probably just punch you instead in his current state, so…" She let out a full blast of killing intent directed at Jinn while simultaneously materializing about 5 large Noh masks all around him, all glaring at him. "What are your intentions with my daughter?"

Jinn shrugged, shockingly unaffected by the masks and killing intent. "Simple, be with her and support her as best as I can," he informed them plainly. "Even if we end up breaking our relationship, I will do my best to help her."

"Argh, this is infuriating," Setsuna grumbled, dismissing her killing intent and masks. "Never seen someone immune to it before… Anyway, I'll hold you to your word, Hisanaga-kun, but if you break it my husband will likely… as he is most likely to put it, castrate you with the bluntest object he can find and dangle you from the end of the ORB mass driver naked for everyone to see."

"Otou-san, that's mean…" a person with long silver hair reaching to their waist stepped into the room, dressed in a white T-shirt and a pair of tight blue jeans showing off their slender figure. They stood about half a head shorter than Hanami, with very feminine features that they shared with her.

"Even Fubuki too?" Akihiro groaned. "My family has no confidence in me…"

Jinn simply shrugged. "I wish you luck with that, everyone on the ship loves Hanami-chan for her cooking and would be lining up for a shot at the one who made her cry," he informed. "So… considering the majority of the crew are former OMNI commandoes, I truly wish you luck."

"That's my daughter all right," Setsuna smiled, her eyes twinkling with mirth. "By the way, this is Fubuki-chan, my younger daughter."

Fubuki and Akihiro sighed for some reason.

Jinn tilted his head slightly as he studied Fubuki before he shrugged. "A pleasure to meet you," he informed. "I'm Jinn Hisanaga."

"Nice to meet you too," Fubuki nodded back. "Onee-chan will recover well, right?"

Jinn nodded. "I… I think that her still being unconscious has something to do with Kagami-chan to be honest," he informed. "And, I actually hope it is, it would be hard to explain to Hanami-chan why she was injured when she wasn't in the battle…"

"Well, all we can do is wait for her to come back right?" the younger silverette shrugged and took a seat beside Jinn. "It'll be fine, Jinn-san."

Jinn nodded. "Hanami-chan is stronger than anyone could imagine," he informed closing his eyes as he took hold of Hanami's hand. "I know she'll pull through."


Hanami's Dream


"Wh… where am I?" Hanami looked around, finding herself to be in a completely blank white landscape. She had a vague feeling of standing on something, but as far as she could feel there was nothing under her feet and there was an odd wind blowing that made her painfully aware that she was stark naked. Thankfully though there didn't seem to be anyone around.

Still, it was strange considering the last thing she remembered was a mobile suit claw tearing through… her… cockpit…

She gasped out loud as the memories of the battle with the Desert Tiger flooded her mind, materializing all around her in large video screens that flew past as she remembered them. She remembered getting in a pilot suit, she remembered hopping into the Exodus after a quick kiss with Jinn… She remembered pulling the trigger in her cockpit, firing a shot from the Exodus's backpack-mounted cannon and bombarding a ZAFT base… And she also remembered…

"KAGAMI-CHAN! NO!"

She remembered everything.

"Dammit, I was hoping this wouldn't happen for a while longer…" a voice rang through the air. Her voice.

Standing before her, having appeared out of nowhere was a doppelganger of herself, complete with long wavy silver hair, overdeveloped body and red eyes that contrasted her own cerulean blue eyes so much. The alter ego she had given birth to the first time she had ever climbed into the cockpit of the Exodus Gundam, from the stress she had experienced from her first kill. Her brave, confident and coquettish alter ego that shared her body and her love for the younger Hisanaga.

"... Kagami-chan," Hanami murmured.

"Hanami-chan, don't blame Jinn for hiding all this from you," her red-eyed counterpart advised seriously. "I asked him to do it - you just haven't gotten all of my memories yet so you don't know that part."

"So those ni-nightmares I kept having before I officially hooked up with Jinn-kun…" Hanami began, thinking back to the time so long ago when Jinn had first comforted her in front of the backdrop of stars in space when she couldn't sleep because of the nightmares. "They were real… It was just you instead of me."

"We are technically the same person anyway," Kagami shrugged as she strode over to Hanami. "We're two sides of the same coin, I'm your mirrored self. Hence my name. Mirror."

"But… ho-how do I remember it all? Until now I haven't…"

"Either way you were going to find out after this," Kagami looked up at the screen playing their memory of the orange BuCUE-type unit clawing right through the Exodus' cockpit hatch. "No way you were going to miss the fact that you woke up in the infirmary feeling so much pain in your arm and back. At least Jinn-kun got him… but I still wish we hadn't needed to fight him in the first place." Her tone turned sad near the end.

Hanami winced as the memory showed her left arm being torn into by the very tip of the claw and she rubbed at it unconsciously. "Kagami-chan… if you hadn't activated the boosters at the very last moment, we would almost certainly have died."

Kagami herself grimaced at the thought of perishing in battle. "Not at the very top of my list of ways to go out - getting clawed right through a cockpit hatch…"

"But… Kagami-chan, what does this mean for us now?" Hanami asked.

"I'm not too sure myself, but I'd say we'll be able to swap at will now given the fact that you know about me. You can keep going about your life normally after you recover, but just make sure to let me out every now and then. For when we get into fights again, I only ask that you let me take the controls," Kagami replied grimly. "I don't want you bloodying your - well, technically our hands even more than you have to."

"Kagami-chan, I can't just stand by and let everyone else fight for me like this! It just makes me feel pathetic!" Hanami shouted. "I can't let Jinn-kun protect me all the time - what meaning is there in having the power to protect my friends and not be able to use it!? Our home is with Fenrir now - Jinn-kun's home is with Fenrir. Let me do my part to protect our home, please, Kagami-chan!"

Kagami blinked in surprise at her counterpart's passionate declaration. "Fine, but if anything goes wrong and you hesitate, let me step in. Or we can find a way for you to fight from the rear until you're ready to take the helm for real."

"I'm fine with that. I just want to do more to help," Hanami nodded. "Kagami-chan, thank you."

"You know you're pretty much thanking yourself, right?" Kagami laughed sheepishly, rubbing the back of her head in slight embarrassment "Well. I think we should get going, I can hear people talking outside."

"Right," Hanami allowed a small smile to stretch across her lips. At the very least, this was a start for her.


Mugen Kano, Hangar


"Watch that wiring Dearka, if I see even a sliver of exposed wiring I'll be hanging you by your knickers like how Yzak ended up!" Ryu shouted out to the blond as he worked at the cockpit of the Exodus.

"Gotcha!" Dearka replied, definitely not wanting to get the treatment Yzak got for intruding in the kitchen.

Ryu grunted as he popped the last bolt for the current frame that held the Ultracompact Energy battery and waved at the crane operator to remove it before moving the frame for the Cold Fusion reactor into place to be secured. "That girl better appreciate the work I'm doing," he grunted to himself as he started bolting the frame. "But, this should be an interesting project…"

"Installing the same power source as we use on our machines?" Kira asked as she walked up.

"Yeah, had to make a completely new frame for it too," Ryu informed. "Also, got a few designs for weapons for you and Athrun to check over, so, what's up?"

"Hanami's family is currently in the infirmary now, and I think Jinn is meeting them," she informed. "Also, I'm thinking we should put together a team to go explore that undefined segment of the map… I can just feel that there's something there, waiting for us."

"I think there is, too, to be honest," Ryu agreed. "But, I wanted to wait until Hanami woke up before assembling the team, I think we might need both Jinn and Hanami's computer skills if what I think is down there really is down there."

Kira nodded. "Well, hopefully she'll wake up soon," she said. "Also, what do you think of our latest recruits?"

"The Archangel?" he asked. "I sent some of our boys over there to make sure the ship is in shape, and they should be swinging around at some point, going to need to figure out their duties and who to assign to the Archangel."

"I'm… thinking we might make the Archangel our main ship until the one being built in the PLANTs is ready to go," Kira replied. "It's just so much more powerful than the Mugen Kano… and I think Joker's wanting to see what he can do at the helm of that thing."

Ryu let out a hum. "Well, certainly could fit more for the time being," he mused. "And I got some buyers lined up for the Mugen Kano, specifically a War Museum in ORB."

"I'll miss this ship, but I think it is time to retire it," Kira said. "We're nearing the limits of what the Mugen Kano can do… limits that the Archangel doesn't have."

Ryu nodded in agreement. "While the Mugen Kano is armed, bringing it into battle, isn't necessarily a good idea," he agreed. "Archangel on the other hand, well, the guns on that thing make other warships feel impotent."

"Not to mention the Positron Cannons," Kira added. "If we end up having to assault any kind of fortress, those things will knock down a wall in a single shot… don't think the Mugen Kano, or any of our Mobile Suits, have anything with as much power as those guns."

Ryu nodded in agreement. "I'll make arrangements for everything to be transferred over, thoughts on having Ramius to captain the ship in battle?" he asked.

"No contest," Kira replied. "She was forced into command at Heliopolis, and successfully led her ship to Artemis, then the moon, then down to Earth, then with her performance in the battle two days ago… she's the perfect choice to command the ship in battle."

Ryu nodded. "Works for me as well," he agreed as the final bolt was in place. "Sorry, Dearka, going to have to ask you to leave the hangar for this next part."

"No worries," Dearka replied. "Think I might visit with Hanami's family - her little sister looks pretty cute."

Ryu shrugged. "Go ahead, but when I call you, be ready to finish the wiring upgrades!" he told the blond. "He's a smart kid, but… single minded sometimes…"

"Yeah… he's the stereotypical playboy," Kira replied after Dearka had left. "Honestly, I think he might even hit on a tree if someone put a skirt on it."

Ryu barked out a laugh as a sealed container was brought into the hanger from a highly secured storage area, it was quickly opened to reveal the Cold Fusion Reactor. "Take it easy boys, we'd make nukes blush if that thing went off!" Ryu shouted out as they began to use a crane to lift it into place.

"Always amazing to see that thing…" Kira remarked. "Even more amazing to realize that the original was not made by human hands…"

Ryu nodded in agreement as he carefully eyed it until it was in position, he then began connecting the assorted power cables to the Reactor. "Believe me, I know," he agreed. "We're actually going to need to begin the process of building one for the new ship when it's completed, IDB may be good at keeping their lips sealed, but this is one secret I'll take to my grave."

"Agreed," Kira replied. "This… it's something that can revolutionize mankind… but in its current warring state, humanity isn't ready for it…" she paused. "Speaking of, though, do you think we might be able to build one of these things for the Archangel?"

Ryu hummed in thought for a moment. "Possibly, but… the difficulty would be installing it, Akira has orders to have a… well, maintenance hatch on the ship large enough for the CFR to get through," he informed. "The Archangel on the other hand, we may have to cut open some sections for it… although… I've been thinking, we need a home base, right?"

"That would be nice… a home where we could rest between contracts, and where people would know to reach us if they needed to hire us…" Kira replied. "Do you have an idea in mind?"

"Well, there are a few abandoned Colonies out there, why don't we obtain one?" he asked. "It would make for a perfect place for a shipyard as well."

"Would definitely work…" Kira replied. "The Mendel Colony at L4 would be a good option, I think - it's the most intact of the abandoned Colonies."

Ryu nodded in agreement. "Sounds like a good idea," he agreed. "Although… why does Mendel sound so familiar?"

"I don't know… it sounds a bit familiar to me, too…" Kira replied. "I'm sure we'll figure it out when we get there and survey the place."

Ryu nodded in agreement as he set the final cable into place. "Get clear!" he shouted out as he climbed out of the spot where the reactor would go. "Alright, start lowering it! Gently people, gently!"

They all shouted affirmation and started lowering the reactor.

As soon as it was lowered into place Ryu got in and started securing it into place, as soon as he was done he pulled himself out and detached the reactor from the Crane. "You're clear!" he shouted out to the operator before closing the hatch on the back of the Exodus where the reactor was placed. "Alright people, take ten!"

The group nodded, and moved off, even as Kira moved to Ryu's side. With the Hangar empty aside from them, they were soon joined by a familiar pinkette carrying Shiro. "How are you doing, Lacus?" Kira asked.

"Good," Lacus informed, bouncing a happily gurgling Shiro in her arms, since coming aboard she began looking after Shiro for Kira and Ryu in place of Alex, though they both still informed the babysitter that her help would be needed in the future. "Little Shiro here just wanted to visit Mommy and Daddy though, didn't you, Shiro?"

Shiro gurgled a little bit, as Kira took him into her arms. "Thanks, Lacus," she said. "And you're doing very well with Shiro - you're a natural mother."

Lacus smiled happily in response as she accepted a kiss from Ryu. "Thank you, I guess it's practice for when my own little one comes into this world," she informed, holding a hand over her abdomen. "Plus, he's a little ball of sunshine, this one is."

Once Ryu had kissed Lacus, Kira gave her a kiss, as well. "Yeah, he may have been unplanned, but I'm glad I had him," Kira remarked. "Word of advice, though - when it comes time for your little one to come into the world, do not refuse painkillers."

Ryu winced as he flexed the hand that she nearly crushed. "Please listen to her, I'd rather not lose my hand," he pleaded, making the two giggle.

After a few moments of them just enjoying each other's company, Kira said, "By the way, Lacus, you remember our newest acquisition, the Archangel?"

Lacus blinked and thought for a second. "Yes, they were declared Rogue by OMNI, correct?" she asked. "What about them?"

"Well, we're going to be emptying the Mugen Kano and moving everything into the Archangel soon," Kira replied. "The Mugen Kano has served us well, even back when I was a solo mercenary, but… we're just running into the limits of what it can do."

Lacus sighed. "Just as I get everything unpacked," she informed jokingly, smiling at the pair. "I'll make sure everything's ready for the move, actually, speaking of… I'm almost embarrassed to ask, but, would we be able to go clothes shopping soon, I'm afraid this is all I have on me."

Kira nodded. "A desert area like this likely wouldn't have much in the way of clothes, but we might be able to swing by ORB again once our contract here is done," she said. "Ryu and I are thinking about acquiring the L4 Mendel Colony to serve as a home base for us, which means we'll need a Mass Driver to make it to space - and the Kaguya Mass Driver is the main one we use - I trust ORB to charge fairly for its use more than the EA with Panama."

Lacus nodded in agreement. "I wouldn't mind shopping in Onogoro again," she informed cheerily. "I look forward to it."

The other two nodded and smiled at her before they each took one of her arms in their own and headed towards the exit. "Let's get something to eat," Ryu informed. "I'm a bit peckish."


Infirmary


"Mmmm…" Hanami groaned as she gently stirred, becoming aware of the painful throbbing in her left arm and back. Her alter ego hadn't been kidding when she said it hurt! And this was AFTER her surgery, judging by the fact that she wasn't bleeding out all over the place…

"Hanami-chan!" Jinn gasped.

"Onee-chan!" a VERY familiar voice shouted. The silverette allowed her eyes to open, wincing at the brightness of the infirmary lights. After a bit of time to adjust, she slowly rolled her head to one side to see her boyfriend looking at her with a relieved expression on his face. Beside him was… a VERY familiar face that had not seemed to change within the past few years she hadn't gone back home.

"Ji-Jinn-kun! Fubuki-chan… wha-what are you doing he-here?" Hanami asked in surprise.

"We all came to see you when we heard you were critically injured… Otou-san, oka-san!"

"Oh my dear daughter, why did you have to do something like that!?" Akihiro almost tackled her, only to be held back by a Noh mask that had materialized out of thin air right in front of his face.

"Hanami-chan, it's all right now… we're all here for you…" Setsuna gently sat down on the bedside and gently rubbed her daughter's head. Hanami relaxed into the ever-so nostalgic motions, smiling as the warm from her family's presence enveloped her.

"I-I'm back, Jinn-kun, otou-san, oka-san, Fubuki-chan…" the elder silverette cried.

"Stupid girl… Why didn't you ever tell us that you had signed up with this Fenrir?" her father sat down beside her, taking her hand into his and gripping it gently.

"Things were too he-hectic at the time, otou-san… I never ha-had the time…" Hanami whispered.

"Hanami-chan," Jinn let out a small sob as he smiled at her. "I'm so glad you're alright…"

"Th-thank you for sa-saving me… Jinn-kun…" she squeezed his hand as hard as she could, which wasn't very hard at all considering it was with her injured arm.

Jinn shook his head in response. "I just wish I could've stopped him sooner so that you didn't have to get injured," he said regretfully. "I'm sorry…"

"You di-did your best, Jinn-kun…" the elder silverette just smiled, attempting to reassure her boyfriend. "For me… me and Ka-Kagami-chan…"

Jinn smiled at her. "I always will, Hanami-chan," he informed. "So… you know now? About Kagami?"

Hanami nodded and closed her eyes for a moment. When she reopened them, they were the red eyes of her alter ego. "Well, it was about time I guess," Kagami sighed as she leaned in towards Jinn, planting a light kiss on his lips. "Jinn-kun, thank you…"

"Can I kill hi-" Akihiro's protest was silenced by a Noh mask appearing in front of his face again.

Jinn ignored her father as he blushed slightly. "You're welcome, Kagami-chan, Hanami-chan," he informed. "So… we don't have to embarrass you to death anymore?"

"Nope!" Kagami chirped. "Just let Hanami know when you need me and I'll come right out. And vice versa. Hanami is likely still going to faint and forcefully draw me out if you kiss me, though."

"Kagami-chan!" a scandalized Hanami shouted from the back of her mind.

"Onee-chan?" Fubuki asked. "You feel… different."

Kagami's eyes twinkled cheekily. "Fubuki-chan, it's just my split personality. Is oka-san at it again, by the way?"

Setsuna simply lifted a hand to her mouth, chuckling as the younger silverette gave a resigned sigh and nod.

At that moment, the doors opened and Dearka walked in. "Hey, Jinn," he said, then noticed Kagami was up. "And hey there, Kagami, good to see you up."

"Hey, Dearka-san. By the way, Jinn-kun, did they say when I'd be able to get up? I'm not really feeling lethargic enough to sit here in the infirmary all day," Kagami asked, testing her arms and groaning when she realized her left arm was feeling quite weak.

"Tomorrow is the earliest, and that's only because Ryu-nii said that he needs our help with the mining tunnels he want to look through," Jinn informed.

"Aw, man…" Kagami made a face. "Being stuck in the infirmary sucks. Well, I'm going to let Hanami out first and go take a nap in the passenger seat, otherwise I'll go crazy from not being able to get up and move. Kinda like an itch you can't scratch. Ja ne, Jinn-kun!"

"That was… interesting," Akihiro commented as Kagami closed her eyes and reopened them to show Hanami's normal blue ones. "Wait… did she say that you had to kiss her whenever you wanted to bring her out before this?"

"Well, it's the quickest way, but, yeah," Jinn informed, a slight blush on his face again. "And… it's cute when Hanami-chan get's flustered."

"Ji-Jinn-kun! You didn't have to te-tell them that!" Hanami blushed, fidgeting embarrassedly.

"It's the quickest way… I'LL KI-" A pair of Noh masks appeared this time.

"Ara ara, interrupting a romantic moment between our dear daughter and her boyfriend is… impolite," Setsuna released a hint of killing intent as she chuckled in a ladylike manner.

"But… but… Setsu-koi!" Akihiro whined, nervously backing off from the third Noh mask that had now appeared. "Just let me do my job!"

"Like I said earlier, you'll just end up punching the lights out of him instead of doing it right, darling," his wife sighed.

Jinn let out a small sigh. "Do people underestimate my capability to defend myself because I'm a 'geek'?" he questioned no one in particular. "Because, Ryu-nii taught me Krav Maga."

As Jinn, Hanami, and Hanami's parents continued their argument, Dearka sidled up to Fubuki and said, "That's getting kinda crazy there, huh?"

"Well, otou-san is always like that," Fubuki sighed, watching as her mother deployed yet another mask. "He's waaaay too overprotective of onee-chan. Maybe he's trying to make up for lost time or something."

"Huh. Makes sense, I guess," Dearka replied. He then flashed a smile at Fubuki. "By the way, the name's Dearka Elsman. A pleasure to meet you."

"I'm Fubuki Yukikaze, Hanami's…" she shot a short glance at her mother for a moment. "…little sister. Nice to meet you, Dearka-san," Fubuki smiled slightly.

"Fubuki… cute name," Dearka remarked. "So, feel like grabbing a bite to eat? It's not as good as Hanami's usual food, but we've still got some decent grub here."

Immediately Fubuki's stomach started growling and she blushed slightly as she nodded. "We didn't get to eat much on the way here - we just rushed here to see onee-chan. I guess… I'll take you up on that offer then."

"Jinn-kun, are they go-going to feed me the sta-standard infirmary grub…?" Hanami asked, their argument having been unintentionally interrupted by Fubuki.

Jinn chuckled. "I can get you some edible food," he informed with a smile. "Kira has been cooking in your absence."

"Kira-san's cooking is the only one I can respect among all the cooks on the ship…" Hanami, speaking passionately about her hobby, made a face at the thought of the other cooks. "Fubuki-chan, go ahead. Dearka… I trust you know what will happen if you do anything to her…"

Dearka shivered slightly, remembering what Hanami did to Yzak. "Don't worry, I'll be a perfect gentleman," he said, before whispering into Fubuki's ear, "Unless you'd rather otherwise…"

"I'm sure girls would respect you more for being a gentleman," Fubuki chuckled lightly as she got up. "Lead the way, Dearka-san."

As the two walked away, Jinn shook his head. "Akihiro-san, you likely have more to worry about with Dearka-san than you do from me," he said. "Dearka-san hits on just about anything with a skirt."

"Ah, well…" Akihiro gave Setsuna a nervous look. "Fubuki-chan will be fine."

Setsuna simply gave a mysterious smile while covering her mouth with her hand.

"Hanami-chan, make sure you have your smartphone ready…" Kagami reminded from the back of Hanami's mind.

Hanami simply nodded to herself in silent acknowledgement.


That Night, Infirmary


"So…" Jade began nervously as she, Flay, and Shinn sat a private room in the Infirmary, not quite wanting Hanami/Kagami and her family to overhear the news they were about to receive. "You have the results, doctor?"

"I do," the doctor said, looking at them. "And yes, you are pregnant, Jade. Though given the state the world is in right now, and our group's line of work, I'm not sure whether I should say congratulations or not…"

"I think congratulations works for me," Jade informed, looking surprised. "I'm… I'm going to be a mother…"

"Yeah…" Shinn remarked. He then turned to the doctor. "Jade also said her family has a bit of a history of twin births… do we know…?"

"Not yet," the doctor replied. "It's still too early for us to tell for sure."

"Thank you, anyways, doctor, but… I'd like for it to be a surprise," Jade informed, a slight smile on her face. "Mom always said that she didn't know if me or Jinn were boy or girl until we were born… I'd like to do that, too."

"Alright," the doctor said. "We probably will be able to tell at around the two month mark if you are carrying twins or not - and that would probably be better to know ahead of time, so you can prepare."

Jade nodded in agreement. "I'll come in for a check up then," she informed. "Thank you again, doctor."

"You're welcome, Jade," the doctor replied. "Good night, you three."

The three nodded in return as they left the infirmary and had a silent trip to their now shared quarters. "So… I guess I'm pregnant," Jade announced to the pair once they were in their room. "Wha… what do you guys think?"

"I'm glad for you, Jade," Flay replied. "And I'm looking forward to being a mother right alongside you."

Shinn nodded. "I'm going to be a father to at least two, maybe three or more children," he said. "I'm a bit nervous, but I promise I will do my best to care for all of them."

Jade smiled at her lovers. "Thank you," she told them happily. "Thank you for supporting me in this, I'm… really happy right now…"

They enfolded her in a group hug. "You're welcome, Jade," Shinn replied. "We love you."

Jade sniffled slightly as the two embraced her, joy filling her very being. "I love you both very much," she managed to get out in between her happy sobs. "I want to be with you two forever."

Shinn and Flay smiled back at her. "We'll do our best to make that happen," Flay replied. "For now, though… what do you say we… celebrate our impending parenthood?"

Jade's smile turned lustful. "How may I please you, Mistress?" she questioned temptingly as the two descended upon her.


Three days later, mining network


"Alright guys, be careful, these are really old mines," Ryu informed as he, Kira, Jinn, Hanami and Victor climbed out of the jeep they drove through the mines to this point. "These parts aren't on the Desert Dawn's maps, so make sure you're tied off properly."

"Ji-Jinn-kun, do you… feel something?" Hanami said nervously as she looked around.

Jinn hummed slightly as he looked around. "Not particularly, why?" he asked curiously.

"It's… hard to explain, but I just get the feeling there's so-something odd lurking around here…" the silverette grasped Jinn's hand for support.

"We'll keep eyes on the back of our heads then," Ryu informed as he, Kira, and Victor pulled out a set of MP5's and passed 9mm pistols to Hanami and Jinn along with Low Light Vision Goggles. "Everyone strapped?"

Kira finished securing her safety harness, which was secured to the truck. "Good to go here," she said.

Hanami hesitated for a moment as she took the pistol from Ryu, suddenly reminded of the first time she had ever held a gun in her hands. "Kagami-chan… please. I'll help you keep an eye on our surroundings."

"Got it," Kagami switched in and confidently took the gun as she accepted the safety harness from Kira. After fiddling around with it for a bit, she secured herself and reported, "Done."

Ryu looked them all over, double checking the harness' and allowing Victor to check his over. "All clear, here's the order we'll be descending, me, Kira, Jinn, Kagami, then Victor," he informed. "Keep a close eye on where you step and should either myself or Victor say to stop, do so, we don't know the condition of the tunnels ahead."

"Gotcha," Kira replied. "Ready when you are."

"Right, follow me," Ryu ordered as he began to make his way into the tunnel, using his MP5's flashlight to light up the area along with Kira and Victor, Jinn and Hanami both carrying heavy duty flashlights. "Hold up," he ordered as he knelt down and pushed some dirt out of the way, revealing a metallic plate. "Metal?"

"That would indicate someone has been here before," Kira replied. "And look… no corrosion. Even buried under the sands like this, there should have been some corrosion… unless this is some metal humanity has no knowledge of."

"Just like on the moon," Ryu muttered. "Alright, let's keep moving people."

"You've seen this stuff before on the moon? Wow," Kagami remarked.

"It's where I found the information for the Reactors we use," Ryu informed seriously. "I was right… the Reconstruction Wars, they were started because of Alien Technology…"

"Wow…" Kira replied. "That would make sense, though… someone found Alien Technology, and decided to use it to pick a fight, or two different people found it at the same time, and started fighting over it…"

"Yeah," Ryu agreed. "We're going to need to secure this place, if we're finding metal plates this soon, I think these mines formed over a full complex of some kind…"

"Agreed," Kira replied. "Not sure what it is, but it's likely rather large."

Ryu nodded. "Jinn, Kagami, you two will be working with Kira on any computers we happen to find," he informed. "If we find anything…"

Kagami was drifting towards a nearby wall in a bit of a dazed state as she put on her gloves and brushed some dirt aside. "There's something here…" she murmured, her eyes slightly unfocused.

Ryu raised his eyebrow slightly as he stepped up next to Kagami and studied the wall. "Step back, Kagami," he told her as he reached into his duffel bag and pulled out a scanner. "Let's see, here, standard rock composition, light layer of unknown metal composition, then a rather large room…" he held out a hand to Victor. "Mk I half charge," he requested, getting the requested explosive and quickly dug a small crevice and placed the charge within. "Get clear," he ordered as he led the group around the corner. "Blowing charge, 3… 2… 1… now!"

There was a decently loud explosion and mild tremor as the charge blew, sending a cloud of dust past them.

Gesturing for Jinn, Kira, and Kagami to remain, Ryu and Victor advanced into the breach they made. "Right side, clear!" Ryu called out.

"Left side, clear!" Victor called out in turn.

Ryu reached up to his headset. "Kira, you're clear to enter," he informed. "Looks like Kagami was spot on…"

"Understood, we're on our way in," Kira replied, and a few moments later the three entered and took a look around the room.

The room itself was fairly decent size, and what look to be a large pillar dominated the center of it. "Hey, good find Kagami, this… is the same thing I found on the moon," Ryu informed. "Now… there should be an adaptor jack…"

At that point, a round portal on the far end of the room seemed to light up, and a holographic image of something they had never seen before appeared before them.

"What in the world?" Ryu breathed as the… insectoid? Reptilian? hologram approached them.

It spoke in some strange language a few times as a light seemed to scan them. "Ah, Humans," a masculine voice announced. "Greetings, I am the Virtual Intelligence Program, Sentry, it has been over 150 years since the last Human has been down here, you are the first to reach this chamber… tell me, has your species reached space travel yet?"

"Umm… yes… but not that far," Kira replied. "We sent a single expedition to Jupiter around 30 years ago that took 14 years round trip, and we have a colony on Mars, but apart from that we really haven't gotten past the area around our planet and moon."

The hologram tilted its head. "I see, considering the level of technology observed 150 years ago, you should be further into your development," Sentry informed, his 'voice' curious. "Your species has become embroiled in war, hasn't it?"

Kira nodded, and she, Ryu, Jinn, and Hanami spent several minutes telling Sentry about the Reconstruction Wars, the period after that leading to the Cosmic Era, and the circumstances regarding the current war.

"I see, that is troubling information," Sentry informed. "But answer me this, I detect a faint emission of a particle created during Cold Fusion… have you discovered our base on your planet's moon?"

Ryu nodded. "I have, and I used the technology discovered within for the machines our group uses… but in Humanity's current state, I do not think the majority of our people are ready for its widespread use."

"So, you took it upon yourself to safeguard secrets for Humanity?" Sentry questioned. "I see… what do you plan on doing with such technology?"

"We will use it to protect those who cannot protect themselves," Kira replied. "To try and stop this current war from getting any further out of hand…"

Sentry nodded. "Interesting declaration, perhaps your species is closer to being ready for the Reapers than we had initially thought," he informed. "I find myself curious of your species in general, may I upload my program into one of your terminals, I wish to learn more about your species and group if I may, I can even assist you in developing your technology, although I am limited in my knowledge, several of my databanks have been corrupted over the centuries unfortunately."

Kira nodded. "That… would be alright…" she said, bringing up a portable computer. "One question, though: You mentioned 'Reapers'… what are they?"

"Our destruction… and yours if you are not ready," Sentry informed. "They were the reason I was placed within this facility, every 50,000 years they harvest all intelligent life in the galaxy that has reached the Space Age, warning: Data Corruption of Reaper Files…"

Kira sighed. "Well, we know they're bad news, but we don't know just how bad…" She looked at Ryu. "Ryu, I think we need to do more than just keep this war from getting further out of hand… I feel that if we're going to stand any chance at all… we'll need to take an active role in ending the war…"

Ryu nodded. "We have a plans to make, then, and we're going to need a larger force…" Ryu informed. "I think it's time I told old man Aeolia and One Eye about this, we're going to need Terminal's help in this…"

Kira nodded. "Once we get back, we need to get in touch with them… our trip to Mendel Colony might very well need to wait, depending on how that goes."

Ryu shook his head. "We'll set the meeting for there," he said. "It's remote enough for our meeting." He turned to the others. "Guys, you need to keep this quiet, no matter what."

Kira nodded. "I'd already been intending on it - your secrets are my secrets, Ryu, and I'll guard them with my life."

Victor shrugged. "You sign my cheques, boss," he informed with a grin. "You tell me to zip it, I zip it good."

"My lips are sealed, Ryu-san," Kagami nodded.

Jinn nodded in agreement. "Same, I have no reason to speak about it," he informed with a shrug.

Kira then fished out a cable and linked one end of it to her computer. "Sentry, is there a nearby access port I can plug this into?" she asked the hologram.

"No need, I only need you to activate the wireless function, I may also need to overwrite any data you may have on the terminal," Sentry informed. "I would suggest you transfer critical data to another terminal."

"Right," Kira said, turning on the computer, and quickly going over the data on it. "Ryu, anything on this thing we need to keep that isn't backed up elsewhere?"

Ryu took a quick look before pointing out a file. "That one there," he informed. "Upgrade blueprints, I only keep them on yours, better security than anything I have."

"Alright - we'll likely need to transfer it to another computer for now until we get back to the base," she said, bringing out another computer. "It'll probably be a good idea to transfer Sentry into the Archangel's computers once we get back." The move from the Mugen Kano to the Archangel had happened the day before - there wasn't much left on her old ship, just enough for it to be able to be ferried to ORB, where the Mugen Kano would become a museum.

"Very well, I also suggest that you try and access storage bay B. on the right side of this room," Sentry informed. "Within is a small amount of Element Zero, a critical component to Prothean and Reaper Technology and a necessity to use the Relay system, something that will allow you to travel the span of the galaxy in seconds, but, this Element Zero is yours for experimentation, we learned from those who came before us, and never dreamed of finding the path on our own, that was one of our downfalls, please, do not let it be yours."

"Very well," Kira replied, as she transferred the upgrade blueprints into the other computer while Ryu retrieved the container of Element Zero. Once she had finished transferring the blueprints, she activated her own computer's wireless function. "OK, ready for you to come in," she told the hologram.

Sentry nodded as his hologram flickered before disappearing, and his face reappeared on the screen. "I must commend your Electronic Security System," he informed. "It is the best I have seen."

"Yeah, even though I discovered my piloting talent at a young age, I still maintained my programming knowledge," Kira remarked. "If I wanted, I could hack my way into the ZAFT and Earth Alliance HQ Mainframes simultaneously." Once Ryu had retrieved the Element Zero, Kira asked, "There anything else around here, or are we good to go back to where we're staying?"

"I hold all the necessary data you need," he informed. "As well as the coordinates for an Archive on Mars which will hold the information necessary for the defeat of the Reapers."

Kira nodded. "We'll need to get there once this war is over… for now, though, let's head back to the Archangel."

The others nodded in agreement as they packed up their equipment and headed towards the exit. "Victor, prime the explosives, we're sealing this behind us," he informed. "I don't want anyone else to find this place, not easily at least."

The blond nodded in agreement, pulling off the duffle carrying the explosives and handed half to Ryu who quickly primed them and began setting them in intervals along the tunnel, linking them to a detonating wire. "All set," Ryu informed. "Everyone clear?"

They all replied in the affirmative, and Ryu triggered the explosives, causing a minor cave in, sealing the passage leading to the room that had once contained Sentry and a container of Element Zero.

"Let's get out of here," Ryu advised. "We've got a war to plan."


That evening, Jinn's quarters


"Cushy bed~" Hanami blissfully murmured as she rolled about on Jinn's bed, hugging a pillow. "I still say the Archangel has the better beds… Today was so tiring…"

Jinn nodded in agreement. "I'll be moving my equipment over to the Archangel tomorrow," he said as he collapsed onto the bed next to her. "I don't exactly trust the commandos here with this stuff, it's expensive, y'know?"

"The same way I don't tru-trust them with the kitchen, Jinn-kun," Hanami rolled her eyes. "They just try to brute force everything…"

"I know right?" Jinn asked with a heavy sigh. "I mean, I heard Jade cursing them out ten ways to sunday when she found out they broke one of her crystal animal collectables."

"Good thing I insisted on moving the kitchen stuff myself. At least otou-san, oka-san and Fubuki-chan were there to help… Fubuki-chan's the only other person I trust in the kitchen… be-besides you, Jinn-kun," Hanami slightly faltered on her last few words, fidgeting a bit more nervously than usual.

Jinn blinked. "Thanks for your trust, Hanami-chan," he said gratefully. "Honestly, you're one of the very few people I would trust with my equipment, the only other one is Kira, and well, that's because she helped me set this all up."

"It's no-nothing, Jinn-kun," the silverette smiled serenely as she rubbed her left arm gingerly. "It feels like just yesterday that I woke up in the infirmary with you and my family… At least I'm mostly re-recovered now. And Jinn-kun…"

"Yes, Hanami-chan?" he responded, turning his head to face her.

"Umm… otou-san finally warmed up to you, right? He's not constantly trying to ki-kill you now, right?" Hanami said, rubbing her thighs together.

"I think so…" Jinn mused for a second. "It might have something to do with the face that I put him into an Arm-Bar yesterday when your mother and sister were helping with the glassware…"

"… I don't quite understand, but otou-san told me earlier that he'll… give us his blessings, although he told me not to tell you. And you know oka-san already wants to see us together…" Hanami blushed brightly as the memory of that particular talk came to the fore of her memories. "She DID tell us she wa-wanted grandbabies to dote on…"

Jinn blushed at that information. "Y… yeah…" he replied, scratching his nose. "She did say that… I'm… not… opposed to the idea…"

"I-I don't think I'm quite ready for that yet… but Jinn-kun…" Hanami whispered, her face growing redder and redder by the second.

"AH MOU, JUST GET ON WITH IT ALREADY!" Kagami suddenly made an appearance without warning, practically rolling onto Jinn and squashing her assets onto his chest as she planted a deep kiss on Jinn's lips. After a while, she broke off to say, "Basically Hanami-chan wants to take our relationship to the next level. She wants to do it."

"Kagami-chan!" Hanami switched back in with a gasp and a very, very red face. "How could you!?"

Jinn chuckled slightly as he slipped his arms around her waist and suddenly pulled her closer and planted a kiss of his own on her lips. "You're so cute when you're flustered," he informed after pulling away.

"Ji-Ji-Jinn-kun…" Hanami fought her growing temptation to faint, succeeding in the end. "Ka-Kagami-chan was right… I'm scared that if I put this off, we might never get the chance again. So… take me, Jinn-kun."

LEMON START!

"If… you're sure, Hanami-chan," Jinn informed, his hand ghosting along the back of her low cut dress, pulling down the shoulder straps and began to pull the dress off, revealing the semi-transparent nighty she was wearing, along with the lacy white underwear that seemed a bit to small for her from the way they strained to contain her overdeveloped bust. "Beautiful…" he murmured as he completely pulled the dress off of her.

"Ji-Jinn-kun, it's all only for you to see…" Hanami whispered, offering no resistance. "I spent so much time planning on how to do this with Kagami-chan…"

Jinn smiled slightly as he kissed along her jaw. "I'm honored," he breathed into her ear before gently pulling the nighty off of her, making her soft breasts bounce subtly. "Thank you, Hanami-chan."

Hanami no longer trusted her own voice to respond, so she simply began tugging at Jinn's T-shirt. With a bit of difficulty, she managed to get it off, and Jinn helped her with his undershirt. The silverette was a little transfixed at the sight that greeted her - a well-toned body, not too muscular but just right in her honest opinion.

As she took in the sight of his upper body, Jinn slipped his hands around to her bra's clasps and managed to free them, allowing her large breasts to spill free, bouncing as he tossed the bra to the side as his eyes greedily looked upon her bare breasts.

Hanami could already feel her nipples hardening with arousal as she let Jinn's deep eyes claim her. She lowered her body and for the first time let her soft bust rest, completely uncovered, on his chest, making her shiver as her peaks brushed against his skin.

"Beautiful," Jinn whispered to her as his hands reached up and softly began to fondle her breasts, Hanami letting out a slight 'eep' at the contact. "You are very beautiful, Hanami-chan," he leaned in and captured her lips in another kiss, pressing his chest up against her breasts, enjoying the feel of the soft pillowy breasts against his chest.

Hanami started feeling a little weak in her knees as Jinn continued his fondling, but she continued to enjoy the warm feeling of his hands and his chest on her bare breasts. Heat began building in her loins, and she became vaguely aware of a wet sensation down below, and even surprisingly in her breasts.

Jinn, feeling something wet on his fingers, looked down and saw something slowly leaking from her breast, leaning down he slowly licked across her nipple, drawing a gasp of surprise from Hanami's throat, tasting the liquid. "Tasty," he commented before leaning in and capturing her left nipple in his mouth, suckling it slightly as one hand teased her nipple on her right breast and his left hand drifted down and slowly ran a finger over her damp panties.

Hanami arched her back in a silent scream as Jinn suckling her sent all sorts of sensations flooding through her body. The sensation of his lips encircling her nipple was just too much! Heat continued building up in her breasts as she let Jinn continue his work, suppressing a shiver from his hot breath hitting her sensitive nipples every now and then as she wrapped her arms around his head.

As Jinn continued with his ministrations on her breasts he slipped his left hand into her panties and slowly began to tease her pussy, brushing his thumb against a small little nub that caused Hanami to go rigid underneath him and let out a small moaning whimper. Keeping his thumb pressing and rotating against the nub, a sweet spot if Hanami's reaction was any indication, he slowly inserted his middle finger into her leaking entrance.

The silverette let out another whimper as she felt Jinn's finger entering her - her will almost crumbled right then and there, but she was determined to see it through the first time - Kagami was in the back of her mind cheering for her, she couldn't afford to mess it up! A low moan escaped her mouth as Jinn expertly massaged her nipple with his tongue.

Jinn could feel Hanami tense up underneath him as he continued his ministrations, her pussy rippling around his finger as he slowly pumped it in and out of her, sometimes brushing up against her hymen before retreating from it, pulling away slightly he looked up at her. "Go ahead and cum, Hanami-chan," he told her. "Cum for me…"

Hanami felt the last bits of her resistance crumble as she arched her back and let out another silent scream. The heat that had been building up inside her exploded out, her lower slit drenching Jinn's hand and her milk dripping out of her nipples onto Jinn's chest. She could barely believe that she was actually lactating then of all times…

Jinn quickly lapped up the milk dripping out of her breasts, suckling some into his mouth. "Tasty," he commented with a small grin before going in for another mouthful, this time instead of swallowing he moved up to Hanami's mouth and kissed her, sharing her own breast milk with her.

As Jinn's lips mashed against hers, Hanami found herself agreeing with Jinn's comment, if a little hesitantly. She still wasn't entirely spent yet though - idly she began to recall how long she had been backed up since officially becoming his girlfriend, thanks in no part to her own hesitation. She wormed her hands down to her damp panties, slowly pulling them off in a teasing manner as Jinn broke from the kiss to watch. She decided she was… ready for it.

Jinn looked at her before nodding and began to pull off his own pants and boxers, showing his large, hardened, prick to her before moving himself into position. "Are you sure?" he asked, running his cock along her dripping entrance, coating it with her juices.

Hanami couldn't help but shiver as she nodded subtly, her eyes transfixed on the piece of meat demanding entrance to her most sacred place. "I'm… ready…" she whispered, forcefully yanking her consciousness back from the edge before she could black out.

Nodding, Jinn slowly began to push himself into her, forcibly spreading her lips apart as he entered her. Coming up to her hymen, he slowly pulled back before capturing her lips with his own and plunged in fully, breaking past her virginity.

The pain drove Hanami to fist her hands around the bedsheets, but it didn't last very long and she soon relaxed visibly although the sensation of Jinn inside her was something she had definitely never experienced before. And she was almost euphoric with the mere thought that they were actually doing it! Breaking the kiss and making eye contact with Jinn, she nodded again, blinking back her tears.

Jinn nodded in response as he began a slow process of pulling most of the way out before pushing himself back in, massaging her chest with his hands as he licked, nipped and suckled on her nipples, trying to help her move past the pain of his insertion, for him, the sensation was incredible, her inner walls felt like a soft velvet vice pressing in on his cock, spasming around it as if urging him to cum then and there, and it took quite a bit of his virgin willpower not to.

Hanami's thoughts were going all fuzzy as she lost herself in Jinn's ministrations, but she managed to snap out of it when she felt the heat in her start building up again. She began to mentally prepare herself for it, only to fail completely when Jinn thrusted into her again, nearly sending her over the edge. "Jinn-kun… I-I…" she whimpered, unable to complete her sentence.

"Me… too…" he breathed out, panting as he tried to restrain himself. "Hanami… chan…"

Hanami was the first to lose it as she arched her back again, letting out another silent scream as all control left her and she released her loads.

Jinn let out a gasp as the vice like grip became even tighter around him and was unable to stop himself from unleashing his own load deep within Hanami, his vision blurring as he did so. "Hanami-chan!"

"Jinn-kun!" Hanami managed to call out before slumping back, leaking her juices all over herself. "I love you…"

"I love you too… Hanami-chan," Jinn panted out as he just barely managed to lower himself into the valley of her breasts without completely collapsing on top of her.

"Don't tell me you forgot about me already!" There was a moment of reprieve before a more enthusiastic voice rang out as Kagami made her presence known by wrapping her arms around Jinn and pulling him deeper into her milk-covered bosom. "Think you can pull double duty? Hanami-chan went dark, but we gotta give her credit for holding together till the end," the silverette's alter ego chuckled.

Jinn breathed out as he managed to pull himself up. "I'm… still hard… but… sore…" he informed as he caught his breath lapping up some of her milk. "Although your milk helps."

"Oho? I'm still feeling a bit sore down there too, but let's see what we can do…" Kagami laughed as she rolled over so Jinn was under her, as she slowly, but deliberately dragged her assets over Jinn's toned stomach, making him groan as he felt the pillowy goodness all over his front. Her eyes gleamed happily when she saw his little guy still standing at attention. "Mmm. Looks yummy," she licked her lips.

Jinn's member twitched in response to her words. "Feel free to taste," he informed as he watched her. "I have no arguments with that…"

"But before that…" Kagami grinned as she turned around, putting them into the 69 position and giving Jinn a front-row seat to the view of her still-dripping pussy as she pulled little Jinn into her bosom and started squeezing her own well-lubricated breasts against it, moaning slightly as the action teased a few more droplets of milk out of them. "I think I need to pay you back for that backrub you gave me last time…" she purred, breathing hotly on its very tip.

Jinn groaned in response as he felt her pillow breasts envelop his member. "Kagami-chan, your breasts… feel so good," he informed before he reached up with his hands to tease her pussy, his tongue lashing against her clit.

If she weren't already in a kneeling position, Kagami was sure her knees would buckle as she felt Jinn start his magic. As it was, she composed herself as much as she could and started rubbing her breasts up and down along Jinn's hardened member, teasing a few droplets out of it that she carefully licked at, making sure her tongue only ghosted across the very tip. "Mmm. I could get used to this," she grinned, savouring the taste.

Jinn moaned at the friction of her breasts on his member bucking his hips slightly from the sensations. "Kagami-chan…" he groaned out. "Your breasts feel… so good…"

"Well, that's to be expected, isn't it?" Kagami laughed as she continued her ministrations. "They're filled with our love for you, Jinn-kun… And how about we test out the theory that a girl's boobs get bigger when the guy that loves her massages them sometime? You don't mind me… getting bigger, do you?"

"Not at all," he informed, blushing at the image. "I don't mind testing it at all."

"Good!" Kagami chirped before dropping her head right on top of Jinn's member, causing him to gasp in surprise at the sudden motion. Once it was in, she took her time teasing his tip, poking at it with her tongue before she started to swirl her tongue around it.

Jinn moaned in pleasure, feeling the pleasurable warmth of her mouth around his member, somehow keeping himself from cumming again then and there before continuing his own ministrations on her pussy.

Kagami was also struggling to hold herself together as she felt Jinn start eating her out - that godly tongue! She was definitely happy with Hanami's choice, oh yes she was. Her head started bobbing up and down Jinn's length, even as she continued to press her breasts against it, causing her to make small smacking sounds as her cheeks hit her own breasts that only served to drive Jinn closer to the edge.

"Kagami-chan… I… I can't hold on much longer," Jinn panted out, even as he pumped two fingers in and out of Kagami's pussy.

Kagami couldn't reply with her mouth occupied, so she just prepared herself by tightening her lips around little Jinn and taking a deep breath while pumping faster.

Feeling his orgasm rapidly approaching, and unwilling to do so alone, Jinn pulled his fingers out of her pussy and then slowly began to press his index finger against her ass, using her juices as ass lube as he pushed in.

The unexpected penetration drew a loud gasp from Kagami as she lost control for a moment and ended up ramming Jinn's member into the back of her throat - luckily she had enough air stored up and managed to catch herself to suppress her gag reflex. She could feel it - she was also going to cum soon!

"Kagami-chan, I'm cumming!" Jinn warned as his balls spasmed before releasing his seed into her mouth.

Kagami's only reply was to start swallowing even as her hips bucked and she released her own load all over Jinn's face, her breasts following suit and drenching Jinn's thighs and the bedsheets around her in milk. In her inexperience, she didn't quite manage to catch the full load and ended up gagging and getting a faceful of Jinn's seed too. Not that she really minded.

Jinn lapped up as much of her juices as he could, staining his face with them as he pulled his finger out of her anus. "That… felt amazing," he informed, panting.

Kagami rolled over in exhaustion, panting hard as well and trying to clean her face up. "Yeah… it did…" she agreed as she dipped her cum-covered fingers into her mouth and cleaned them off. "We definitely ruined the bedsheets though…"

"Yeah…" Jinn agreed as he sat up, looking over at Kagami, admiring the way the twin orbs of flesh on her chest undulated gently with every heavy breath she took. "But… I think it was worth it, do you?"

"Definitely… I'm going to feel that in the morning," Kagami groaned, completely spent and unable to get up herself. "Jinn-kun, you better take responsibility," she added with a tinkling laugh.

Jinn nodded in agreement as he moved over to Kagami, bringing a pillow with him and moved Kagami so that she was resting partially atop of him, her breasts squashed up against his chest as he held her, his shoulder acting as a pillow for her head. "Of course I will," he informed her. "No matter what happens."

"Good… Now, snuggle time!" Kagami snuggled into Jinn lovingly, sharing a wet kiss with him as her exhaustion started catching up with her.

Jinn nodded, holding her tightly. "I don't think I want to let you go," he informed as his eyes drooped closed. "I just want to stay here forever."


END CHAPTER

Post AN: On a side note everyone, wish my co-author and friend Takeshi Yamato a happy birthday, how old he is turning, two hundred and forty three million years old… he's an alien by the way.
