Chapter 8-The Sekirei Escape Plan Part 1
Naruto had suspected his time with Akitsu would have opened a Pandora's Box type of situation after their intimate time together and only the days following it did he realize how true that really was for him. Akitsu had this ethereal glow about her in the few days following the time she had joined in the erotic union with her loving Ashikabi that she deeply cherished. Not surprising since it was something she originally thought would never happen after originally being scrapped. She had this aura of confidence about her, as the ice user moved seemingly faster then possible when training, and the control over the ice itself was progressing better too. Akitsu never strayed too far from Naruto, as she went with him to his office to be by his side, and saw him do the necessary business work needed to keep the company he owned running.
As for Tsukiumi, she was still, in term befitting her way of speaking, vexed by the sheer fact Akitsu had been first among his three Sekirei to join in such union, and yet she knew why the ice woman was chosen first. Hinata and Kazehana had explained that in the most simplest of terms to her, which was about two levels higher then speaking in a way one would to a naive child, and vowed to be the second of the three to be with him. While she knew his Shadow Clone that slept with her at night could be used, as it was a copy of her husband, Tsukiumi felt the first time with Naruto should be with Naruto himself rather then a mere duplicate.
Kazehana was actually rather calm about the whole thing, aside from speaking about love between an Ashikabi, and their Sekirei every so often in a very almost fan girlish manner that once rivaled Ino's old romantic beliefs from romance novels she read when growing up. Fortunately, Kazehana knew when to tone it down, and not go that far, even if it was a bit weird, and made Naruto sweat drop seeing it. Though Naruto could tell Kazehana was also looking forward to the eventual day or possibly night when she would have her own special time with him.
Naruto was very fortunate that unlike Tsukiumi, the wind user was far more patient, and would just tease him in a sensual manner rather then looking pissed half the time.
"I'm sorry to bother you sir, but Sahashi Takami is calling, and sounds extremely upset at the moment," stated Jarvis, as he materialized inside Naruto's office, and saw the man was not surprised in the least.
"Put her through Jarvis. I swear that woman is so angry all the time. She needs to get laid more often," Naruto remarked to himself.
"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!" yelled Takami with her voice echoing throughout the room.
"Oops," whispered Naruto to Akitsu with a wink and saw the ice user's mouth twitch for a brief one second smile.
"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU NARUTO!" yelled Takami with Naruto sighing at hearing the angry woman express herself in his fortunately sound proof office.
"People have been asking that about me for years. So why exactly are you calling me?" answered Naruto with the sound of Takami growling at him.
"You know damn well why! Sekirei #84 Yashima was deactivated and then reactivated moments later. The only one capable of doing that is you! Minaka knows it too and for once was not pleased that one of the rules in his game is being twisted outside of his control!" exclaimed Takami with Naruto sighing.
"And what? He ordered you to call me to express his dislike? Yashima's Ashikabi was an ass and not even her chosen one. He more then likely killed the Ashikabi she was meant to find in order to wing her himself. I merely provided #84 with a means to find a proper Ashikabi that won't hit and abuse her no matter what the poor girl does. Besides, even if Minaka were truly upset like you claim, he would have made sure rules were in place for every possible scenario, and made sure there were a means to enforce ALL the rules," said Naruto casually with Takami now sighing this time and he sensed the woman rubbing her forehead due to the headache she was feeling.
"I explained that to him Naruto. He said that some rules can be bent while others cannot. You did something that upset him greatly Naruto. Just be careful from here on out when doing things," replied Takami with Naruto smirking even though she couldn't see it.
"I'll keep that in mind Takami. In the meantime, I suggest you do something to take the stress out of your life. When was the last time you had any relief?" said Naruto while hinting at what that something and relief was while also sensing the woman's anger rising again.
"AND JUST WHAT DOES THAT...," yelled Takami only for Naruto to signal Jarvis to hang up the phone and cut her off.
"Ah...was that really necessary Ashikabi-sama?" asked Akitsu seeing Naruto turning in his chair to look at her with a smile on his face.
"No, but it was entertaining," replied Naruto with the smirk on his face never leaving.
"What about M.B.I. coming after you?" asked Akitsu with a hint of worry even though her Ashikabi was a man of incredible power.
The thought of him possibly being harmed was still there deep within her mind.
"Minaka just had Takami calling simply to remind me he is still the 'Game Master' and to not push my luck with him. I'm not going to overstep my bounds Akitsu. I'm only using my power when necessary since he won't change or enforce certain rules in the Sekirei Plan that should be enforced. He knows it. I know it. And Takami knows it," replied Naruto, as he stood up, and had walked over to the ice woman.
"Ashikabi-sama?" asked Akitsu before he leaned in and gave her a passionate kiss that caused the woman's wing's to flare.
"I know you worry for me Akitsu, but have faith in me, and trust in my judgment in this matter. Okay?" said Naruto with Akitsu nodding, her face beet red, and leaning into his body.
"Yes Ashikabi-sama," whispered Akitsu while loving the closeness she felt and his hands on her body in an affectionate way.
"That's my Sekirei," whispered Naruto knowing it would soothe her worries.
"Pardon to interruption sir, but one Sahashi Minato, and his Sekirei #88 Musubi is here requesting a private meeting with you," said Jarvis with Naruto sighing and wondered what it was with people suddenly coming to see him now that they knew he had powers or suspected he had the power to do something for them.
"Did Minato specify his need to see me?" asked Naruto curiously since he gave that card to Minato under the impression that the boy was to use it for emergencies only and not when things suddenly got one level above normal difficulty for him.
"No sir. He only said that your help was required in a plan being created to help another Ashikabi in need," answered Jarvis with Naruto frowning and stretched out his senses.
"Someone else besides his Sekirei is here with him. Another boy and his Sekirei," stated Naruto with Akitsu's eyes narrowing since she suspected a trap of some kind by these two Ashikabi and their Sekirei teaming up against him.
"Yes sir. Scans do show that. Bringing up the pictures now," said Jarvis, as he showed the Ashikabi Haruka Shigi, and his nervous Sekirei #95 Kuno.
"Ah...they were being hunted by Uzume when she worked for Higa," said Akitsu, as she was told by Kazehana, and Tsukiumi about the pair.
"Yes they were. Send them up Jarvis. Akitsu, could you get Tsukiumi, and Kazehana to come to my office? I want their input on this meeting," said Naruto with Akitsu nodding though it was clear she didn't want to leave him unprotected.
"Yes Ashikabi-sama," replied Akitsu, as she walked to the secret elevator that led from his office to the roof, and speak to her Sekirei sisters.
While that little assignment was being carried out, Naruto went to his chair, and brought out the late Sandaime Hokage's pipe to smoke from it. It was a means of relaxing and his trophy that symbolized the victory he gained over the betrayers of his family's bloodline knowing that this item now belonged to him. Breathing out the smoke, Naruto thought back to a time when he had been on the opposite side of a desk, in front of the Sandaime Hokage, the man smoking this very pipe, and having an air of wisdom about his aged face. How Naruto wished to be behind the desk, sitting there with that pipe in hand, the same aura of wisdom gained from living so long, and being respected by those around you.
Only now did Naruto see that the old man was an old fool, who betrayed the Will of Fire, and the principles it once stood for in the name of power. Naruto had learned from his own experience regarding betrayals and the seduction of absolute power that it should be made absolute to any one person. The secret Shinobi of this modern technological era had ensured that any power he held, whether as a ninja, or as a businessman wasn't his solely to command knowing it would drive him mad. Naruto promised himself long ago that he wouldn't allow that to happen and the fact Minaka was getting drunk off the power he had while using M.B.I. to run his S-Plan further enforced the need to stay away from the path of corruption.
The elevator to his right opened, breaking Naruto out of the thoughts from the past, as Akitsu, Tsukiumi, and Kazehana came out of elevator to stand by his side. No sooner had they done that, the elevator in front of Naruto opened up to reveal a friendly looking yet sheepish Minato, a bubbly Musubi, a cautious Shigi, and the ever nervous Kuno walking toward him.
"Sorry for asking you for help like this Naruto. I understand you've been asked to take up a lot of your time with us and Miya-san the past couple of days," said Minato while he along with Shigi were each sitting in a chair before Naruto's desk.
"To be honest, I'm a bit surprised you are here. I was expecting you to call me with the card I gave you, not come here in person, and asking for my help," replied Naruto, as he saw Minato looking sheepish again, and Shigi was trying to not look increasingly nervous in front of him.
"I was going to call, but Matsu suggested I speak to you in person. She didn't want to risk M.B.I. monitoring my call and learn what it is we want to talk to you about since it would bring their attention down on us," replied Minato with Naruto nodding since M.B.I. and Minaka would do something like that to keep an eye on the Sekirei he sent out into the world.
"What is it you need to talk to me about?" asked Naruto, as he saw Minato looking over at Shigi, and the other boy was clearly cautious of confiding in him what they wanted to say.
"We need you to help Kuno-chan here escape from Shinto Teito with her Ashikabi so they can live together!" exclaimed Musubi with Naruto raising an eyebrow at her while Minato looked even more sheepish, Shigi was more serious then cautious now, and poor Kuno looked like she was about to faint from the pressure of possibly hearing the word no.
"What? Thou wishes to leave Shinto Teito? The Sekirei Plan?!" demanded Tsukiumi, as she glared at Shigi, and Kuno with the latter shivering under the water using Sekirei glare of doom.
"Yes. We don't really believe in the Sekirei Plan. Its hardly fair to those like Kuno since she can't really fight," replied Shigi with Kuno's depressing mood getting worse with each passing moment.
"We were talking it over when he came to Maison Izumo looking for a place to stay and our only solution to helping them was to plan a successful escape," added Minato, as he saw Naruto let out some smoke from the pipe, and was surprised it was odorless.
"Who else have you told about this?" asked Naruto calmly while ignoring Tsukiumi's angry look and kept his focus on the group in front of him.
Akitsu and Kazehana remained impassive until they knew where their Ashikabi stood on this matter.
"Miya knows, as does Uzume, but she promised to keep it quiet, and Seo since we went to him for help first. I didn't want to drop this on your lap right away after what you did for Yashima. Miya-san said you helped her out recently and kind of hinted having you on our side would give ourselves better odds in succeeding," answered Minato with Naruto letting out a sigh.
"Well...its a good thing you didn't talk to me about this over the phone. You should thank Matsu for that. As for helping you...what exactly do you need me for?" replied Naruto, as he needed to know exactly what they were asking of him, and risk should he agree to help them in this mission.
"The plan itself calls for a diversion, performed on Seo's part with his Sekirei, and M.B.I. being distracted from dealing with the trouble being caused. While that happens, our own group here will make for the bridge with the weakest amount of security leading out of Shinto Teito, and I will escape with Kuno. What we need is additional support from your own Sekirei to help provide protection for us from the Discipline Squad," explained Shigi with Kazehana stiffening a bit while Tsukiumi looked a bit worried.
Akitsu's eyes just narrowed slightly.
"While I have no doubt my Sekirei could handle the Discipline Squad, you are asking me to put them at risk for your heart's desire, and earn me the wrath of M.B.I. since I doubt they will take this lightly. While I am not selfish by nature, I need to know what I gain exactly from helping you, and your Sekirei in escaping from Shinto Teito?" said Naruto with Shigi looking a bit peeved while Minato looked saddened to hear this.
"I don't have much in terms of offering you anything. Money is pointless since I don't have any and you own this company so it kind of defeats the purpose. But you would have my utmost respect and appreciation! That has to count for something, right?!" said Shigi while seeing Naruto breathing in the tobacco from the pipe and breathe the smoke out.
"It does in a sense. Though I am curious how Minato here got caught up in this and I'm curious why he would want to risk so much while gaining so little. You're not leaving Shinto Teito like Shigi here my friend so what do you gain from helping him and his Sekirei escape?" questioned Naruto with Minato looking nervous at being put on the spot.
"Well...its just Shigi wants to be happy with his Sekirei and it does seem unfair that Kuno has to fight when she's not very good at it. I mean, wouldn't it be fair to simply let her be with her Ashikabi, and not fight in the Sekirei Plan?" replied Minato with Musubi liking his response while Shigi seemed to appreciate his kindness.
Kuno looked depressed at the mention of her inability to fight, but that was nothing new for the timid girl.
"So you are doing this because it is, at least in your mind, the right thing to do, and will go through with this no matter the risks you along with your Sekirei may face," stated Naruto with Minato nodding.
"Yeah. You could say that. Musubi wants to help them just as much as I do," answered Minato with Musubi nodding in agreement.
"Yep! Not only that, but Yashima-chan is going to help to now that she's been winged by Minato!" exclaimed Musubi with Naruto raising his eyebrow at her.
"Musubi! You weren't suppose to tell him that yet!" exclaimed Minato since he wanted to keep that part a secret for now.
"Oops! My bad. Being discreet is hard," replied Musubi while hitting herself on the head lightly with her tongue sticking out.
'So that's why Takami was so upset when she called. Her son has himself another Sekirei and possibly made himself into a bigger target,' thought Naruto while Tsukiumi looked ready to explode in anger.
"How...dare you!" exclaimed Tsukiumi with her hair waving around angrily like it was possessed.
"W-What?" asked Minato with a bit of fear.
"Thou dares to help this lowly monkey flee Shinto Teito with his Sekirei? To escape from M.B.I. and the Sekirei Plan? Disgraceful! And as for thee, as a Sekirei thou dares to help thy Ashikabi in this plan? I would think thou would have more common sense then that #88!" replied Tsukiumi with her finger pointing from Minato at first and then at Musubi.
"Hey! That's not very nice," replied Musubi while pouting at her.
"Enough Tsukiumi," said Naruto in a warning tone though it was clearly being ignored.
"How is trying to escape a disgrace? We want to live in peace without the fear of fighting another Sekirei!" protested Shigi, but was given a glare by Tsukiumi, and it made him flinch since he honestly thought she would lash out with one of her water attacks.
"Enough Tsukiumi," said Naruto in a warning tone slightly higher this time.
"Lowly monkey! A Sekirei's duty in the Sekirei Plan is to fight until the end. Until there is only one left standing. To flee now is not only cowardly, but dishonorable, and makes your Sekirei look weak beyond measure. It would be more honorable to let the frail thing before my eyes be destroyed right now!" declared Tsukiumi, which made Shigi go tense, and Kuno trembling in fear while Minato was shock with Musubi getting ready for a fight.
Only to stopped by what happened next.
"I said enough Tsukiumi!" Naruto nearly yelled while slamming his fist on the desk and his power washing over the room to further enforce the command.
"Husband?" asked Tsukiumi, as she had never seen him use so much power when giving a command before today, and saw his blue eyes were cold as ice.
"My apologizes for Tsukiumi's behavior. She has a bit of a temper. I am still...working on it," said Naruto calmly, but his eyes were on the busty blonde, and told the woman not to speak out in such a rude manner while here.
"I-Its all right. Really!" replied Minato while astounded by Naruto's power.
'What was that just now? There was so much energy and it was coming from this one guy. This single person bathed the entire room with so much power it felt like he could power a city for a good twenty minutes with that brief flash alone. How is that even possible?!' thought Shigi, as he saw Tsukiumi keep her temper in check, and Naruto returning his gaze toward the group with friendlier eyes this time.
"From what I have seen, you two really do care about your Sekireis a great deal, and I can honestly say I admire Minato's courage in helping you Shigi. I am not going to judge you for wanting to leave with your Sekirei, as that is not my place, and I'm sure you won't be the last to try in the attempt. There is no denying that the Sekirei Plan overall is a very vicious game where Sekirei fight other Sekirei for the simple enjoyment of one man and that would be the game's creator. That being said, I have no desire to see someone clearly so gentle by nature that is your Sekirei perish simply because she can't fight, and simply wants to be with you. That would be like punishing someone simply for existing and I know from my own experience such a thing is wrong on many levels," said Naruto, as he saw Tsukiumi looking shocked, Minato looking hopeful, and Shigi leaning forward.
"Wait! Does this mean that you will help us?" asked Shigi with Naruto nodding.
"Yes. Yes I will," replied Naruto with Kazehana and Akitsu smiling at his thoughtfulness.
Only Tsukiumi looked shocked and disheartened.
"Husband! Surely thou jests on this matter. To help them gains you nothing!" protested Tsukiumi with Naruto sighing again before putting the pipe down on the holder for it on the desk.
"I believe this matter has been concluded. Kazehana. Akitsu. Please escort my guests downstairs and see them along with their Sekirei out. Minato, please tell Miya I will be in contact with Matsu to help coordinate with her where needed, and have Seo come by my office tomorrow. I need to speak to him about other matters that require his talents for being a scoundrel and tell the bum I will pay top dollar to further ensure he accepts," said Naruto with Minato nodding though he slightly wondered why Seo was required by this businessman.
When the group left for the elevator, only Naruto along with Tsukiumi remained, and the water using Sekirei was suddenly very nervous when she saw him give her an angry look. Usually, he was tolerant of her rants, the occasional feud with Kazehana, or Akitsu over who was the "proper wife" among the three of them. But this? No. Tsukiumi could tell he was downright displeased with her and it hurt to see that look Naruto was showing being aimed at the blonde woman.
"What?" asked Tsukiumi, as she took a step back when Naruto got out of his chair, and walked into her personal space.
"Do you enjoy upsetting me Tsukiumi? Do you enjoy insulting others who come to seek my help? Do you enjoy yelling at my guests for following belief that contradicts yours?" asked Naruto with Tsukiumi with Tsukiumi's face going red and frowned at him.
"They were insulting the Sekirei Plan. They were insulting thee by asking you for help," explained Tsukiumi with Naruto frown turning into a scowl.
"I personally don't care for the Sekirei Plan either Tsukiumi so that doesn't really bother me. And just how is asking me for help insulting? countered Naruto with Tsukiumi being unable to answer for a moment.
"They don't need thy help. They are asking thee to put your Sekirei at risk for the selfish desire of one Ashikabi and his Sekirei. A Sekirei, who is frail as a flower in Winter, and will perish just as badly," explained Tsukiumi with Naruto crossing his arms in front of him.
"All the more reason to ensure they can escape and allow that flower to enjoy Spring in another climate where she can bloom proudly," replied Naruto with Tsukiumi looking away from him.
"It is wrong husband! Sekirei are fighters. Warriors of battle trained to fight for the glory of our Ashikabi! Not that weak frail thing we saw earlier," countered Tsukiumi before she was silenced by Naruto taking a quick step forward and was in the woman's personal space.
"Even weak frail things deserve to live Tsukiumi. I too was once a weak frail thing. As was my wife. Many years ago, I was so weak, and pathetic everyone could walk all over me with smiles on their faces knowing they could. The same with Hinata-chan. We were frail flowers in harsh environments and flourished only when away from such things that made us that weak and frail in the first place. I see Kuno has the potential to do some wonderful things with her life in a different environment, away from M.B.I.'s control, and Minaka's cruel machinations for your race. I will not deny this frail girl the one chance to escape, thrive, and grow with her Ashikabi," replied Naruto with Tsukiumi looking away from him.
"Why? Why does this girl get what she wants with her Ashikabi while I cannot without the risks?" asked Tsukiumi in a whispered tone before Naruto turned her head to look at him.
"Because like you keep saying Tsukiumi-chan, you are the strongest of Sekirei, and the strongest must face the greatest of risks," whispered Naruto and saw the woman's face go beet red while her eyes were filled with cuteness.
Strange given her usual volatile and yelling self.
"I-I am the strongest and thy wife! I just...I just wish that all Sekirei in the Sekirei Plan would share the same risk as I do," said Tsukiumi with Naruto smirking at the way she was trying to explain herself to him.
"Everyone has their own way of fighting Tsukiumi. Even Kuno in her own way will help by living outside of Shinto Teito. Your race has a good future with Kuno living outside of M.B.I.'s control, as she can be with her Ashikabi, and can start a new life," replied Naruto with Tsukiumi looking down slightly in shame.
"I suppose thou are correct. Thy reason is sound. I apologize for being so...out of line in front of them," said Tsukiumi with Naruto now smiling, as he kissed her, and felt the blonde woman instinctively moving closer to for further contact.
As they did this, Kazehana, and Akitsu appeared from the elevator to see the two kissing with Tsukiumi's wings flaring.
"Ah...jealous," said Akitsu while wishing she was being kissed by her Ashikabi again.
"Look! Its the power of love! Its love! Yeah!" exclaimed Kazehana, as she moved around in a spin, hearts flying off of her, and almost appeared to be intoxicated if anyone who did not know the woman saw how she was acting.
Ironically enough...Kazehana wasn't drunk at the moment.
"I'm going to need your help on this Tsukiumi. Can I count on you?" said Naruto with Tsukiumi nodding at his question.
"If that is what my husband wishes, then I'll help in anyway I can, and wash away the filth that dares stand in our way with my power," replied Tsukiumi with Naruto's smile increasing.
"That's my girl," whispered Naruto before kissing her forehead.
"So we're going to help the two escape I take it?" asked Kazehana after getting done her little twirl and rant about love.
"Yes. It won't be easy, even with the four of us involved, and I'm sure Minaka has been preparing for such an attempt before today. All the troop activity on the bridges, at the airports, and the Discipline Squad under Karasuba will not be cast aside so easily," said Naruto with Kazehana nodding since Karasuba was a pain and was one of the first five taught by Naruto himself.
Fortunately, so was Kazehana, and she was now Naruto's Sekirei.
"We will do what you wish of us Ashikabi-sama," replied Akitsu, as she walked toward him, and ignored the light growl made by Tsukiumi at being so close to him.
"I know Akitsu. Which is why I need you at your best when the time comes. It won't be for a few more days so we still have time to prepare. However, I need to make sure any unwanted problems don't sneak up on us from behind, and catch us unaware. Hence why I need Seo here tomorrow to handle something...discreetly for me," said Naruto with the others looking at him curiously.
"What exactly do you need him for Naruto? Seo is a scoundrel, booze drinking moocher, and pervert that grabs any woman's breasts regardless if they belong to his Sekirei or not. There is a reason Miya doesn't like him," said Kazehana with Naruto smirking at her.
"True, but Miya also tolerates him too, and Takehito was a close friend he could trust in getting things done when it counted. Lazy nature aside. Seo is the kind of guy, who hears things directly from word of mouth before it hits the streets, and has a knack for knowing how to help when requiring his scoundrel like ways," replied Naruto since he had known Seo's lifestyle gave him the ability to listen to things while no one paid attention to him.
In short...Seo was invisible to people around him.
"Ah...is this what you were referring to at Miya-sama's home about Seo being a reliable resource when it counts Ashikabi-sama?" asked Akitsu with Naruto smiling at her and making the woman's blush all the way to the roots of her hair at being stared at with that happy expression on his face knowing she caused it.
"Correct! Seo makes himself out to be a 'jack-of-all-trades' kind of guy and thus has put himself out there to be the equivalent of a mercenary. You hire him for the right price and he does the job assigned with the effort being on par with the pay. Whoever can pay him the most will have the necessary muscle needed to fight for your side. From what I was told by that little group, Seo was hired to provide support, and knowing Seo the way I do he tried to charge a hefty fee...before Miya threatened him of course," said Naruto with a chuckle knowing the man would try to bleed someone financially and would succeed if they were not friends with Miya.
For someone like Seo, the food Miya made was just as valuable as money, and lasted just as long when in his hands.
"You didn't answer my question on why you need him if that Minato boy already hired the man for a job," said Kazehana with Naruto smirking at her perceptiveness.
"Let's just say I need him to...remove or rather relocate some sensitive trash I acquired from Maison Izumo that was left behind in connection to Yashima. The less you know about it the better," answered Naruto with Kazehana's eyes widening in understanding at what he was talking about while Akitsu just nodded since she knew what the "trash" at Maison Izumo was that had been removed.
It also wasn't her place to ask questions about things she shouldn't ask if they risked her Ashikabi's welfare.
(Izumi Pharmaceuticals-Days Later)
"Have you seen the news sir?" asked Kakizaki with Higa glaring at him after entering the room.
"Of course I have seen the news. This scandal is hurting my company's already fragile reputation," answered Higa with a frown while watching the news replaying the scene of that fool he hired to take out that one Ashikabi at Maison Izumo being shown in an alley near his company a mangled bloody corpse.
Added with printed out text messages somehow traced to Higa and various other forms of documentation that made the President of the Pharmaceutical company had hired the man to "take out" certain people being found on the man's corpse didn't help. There were also printed out e-mails between Higa and various doctors at the hospital that he owned which revealed how they had conspired to handling the treatment of Uzume's Ashikabi for the girl's condition. The people in Shinto Teito were angry at him, calling him a heartless corporate fat cat for a monster, and demanding justice be done.
Even worse, Uzume had come out, playing off as a close personal friend of Chiho's at best, or as the girl's lesbian lover at worst (though no one seemed to care about that these days) stating that Uzumaki Naruto of Whirlpool Publishing had discovered the situation through anonymous sources. How he had helped provide free medical care treatment for Chiho through his wife's very own clinics, which partnered with M.B.I. to provide advanced medical technology to help the poor, and unfortunate get the care they need. Hell, even the dead fool was being seen with some form of pity, as some speculated the man was going to come clean with proof of Higa's corrupt dealings before Higa himself had the man killed while missing a chance to nab the incriminating documents.
In short, the news was portraying Izumi Higa as the villain, and should be burned at the stake for his crimes.
"We can still spin this Higa-sama," offered Kakizaki with Higa looking at the TV with a granite like face.
"I've already sent my lawyers and PR teams to handle that task Kakizaki. Have Kochou find information on every police officer and judge that could handle this case. I want her to get enough dirt on them to ensure that they cooperate with us when the time comes to have the evidence disappear," commanded Higa knowing that with enough evidence gone and his own PR team spinning things in his favor, the company could be saved with only mild speculation regarding his involvement.
But how to deal with Uzumaki Naruto?
"What about Sekirei #10 Uzume and her Ashikabi Chiho? They are currently at Uzumaki Hyuuga Hinata's clinic in the North. Do you wish me to send out some Sekirei to handle them?" said Kakizaki with Higa shaking his head no.
"No. Not right now. Doing so would only stir the public into believing I am the horrible person they currently believe I am," replied Higa with Kakizaki smirking.
"They aren't wrong Higa-sama. You have done horrible things in the name of profit," said Kakizaki with Higa giving him a small glare.
"Of course. Profits make progress. That's the way of the world. Anyone that stands in the way of the ambitious and their desire, MY desires will get run over Kakizaki. M.B.I. and Minaka are standing in my way along with Uzumaki Naruto with his own company. I will not have my company be brought to a grinding halt simply because someone wishes to be a bleeding heart and another being a crazed fool trying to bring about the 'new age of the Gods' crap with these alien freaks. Sekirei are not from this planet, they crashed here, and should be put to good use as slaves since they are uninvited guests regardless of the circumstances that brought them here," replied Higa with Kakizaki nodding since he believed in power being used by only the strong while the weak were either wiped out or enslaved to serve those in power.
"What about Uzumaki Naruto?" asked Kakizaki with Higa's frown turning into a scowl.
"I'll deal with him later. I now know his involvement in this was without question and while I would love to go after him now...this scandal must die down before I can. Still, it doesn't mean someone else can't go after him, and I think its time we extended a hand of friendship to another powerful player in the Sekirei Plan. Someone else, who has taken his fair share of losses, and would like to target Uzumaki Naruto," replied Higa with Kakizaki frowning since he knew who that powerful player was.
"Hayato Mikogami?" asked Kakizaki while seeing Higa nodding.
"Yes. Have Kochou find out Naruto's schedule for the next few days and then inform Mikogami of it through our contacts. I'm sure he would love to send his Sekirei after the man to get his revenge for suffering so many losses," replied Higa knowing this was a win/win for him since it would weaken his enemies.
"Of course Higa-sama," said Kakizaki before leaving the room while Higa kept staring at the TV with the news replaying about his company, the past history of it, and his Father's actions that nearly led to the ruin of everything tied to the Izumi name.
(With Naruto-Days Later)
Naruto was eating out today with Tsukiumi, as she wished to have more time with him, and no doubt get the man away from the other two Sekirei in his life. His wife Hinata was getting prepared for an upcoming medical conference being held in Europe, which M.B.I. was hosting via the European branch it setup there, and showing off the newest medical technology the world would benefit from in the future. Hinata, as a doctor herself, and one of THE top doctors of today's world was invited without question to it. The company had arranged for it to be an all expenses paid trip for this woman, who was among all the elite VIPs of medicinal world heading to this event, and had an impeccable reputation for curing patients of diseases while keeping the fatality rate down.
Naruto wished he could go with her, but Hinata felt it wasn't for the best considering the upcoming events he was getting into with Minato, and Shigi regarding the escape attempt they were preparing for the latter with Sekirei #95 Kuno. Not to mention with the two of them gone, who would watch over an easily provoked Tsukiumi, an occasionally drunk Kazehana, and a shy Akitsu having just overcome her fears of being discarded. With the points made by his wife, Naruto wasn't going to object, and trusted Hinata would be okay while out of the country.
She was a strong kick ass kunoichi with enough chakra and control to level half that side of the world with plenty of energy to spare after all.
"How is your meal Tsukiumi? Everything to your liking?" asked Naruto while sipping some of his coffee in the open cafe area they were currently sitting in since it was such a lovely sunny day.
"Yes my husband. The meal itself was very pleasant. I am glad that the two of us went out together," replied Tsukiumi in a proper sophisticated manner of speaking.
"I agree. I'm also happy that you are getting along better with Akitsu and Kazehana," said Naruto, as he saw her blushing at his praise, and looking hotly at him.
"Of course! I am thy wife after all. It would be insulting to thee if your one true wife among your three Sekirei acted like a scorned strumpet," replied Tsukiumi in a tsundere pose used when sitting down while Naruto just smirked at her
"All the same, the key to all of us surviving the Sekirei Plan, and Minaka's actions will require all of us to work together. Teamwork is key for an Ashikabi with more then one Sekirei to succeed," said Naruto in semi-lecturing mode.
"Yes. So thou has explained to me and the other two on several occasions in training to master our powers," replied Tsukiumi, as she had taken to listening to her husband on these things, and what Hinata-sama had added into the mix when instructing the three.
The two former Shinobi of a long forgotten era were very thorough in their training.
"Its time to go Tsukiumi," said Naruto with a hint of serious in his voice, as he quickly sensed the danger headed their way, and too many people were here to fight.
"Husband? Are we in danger?" asked Tsukiumi, as she heard the tone in his voice, and saw his eyes harden slightly to know that he was getting ready for a fight.
"We are being approached by some unfriendly people my dear. Act calmly and follow me like nothing is amiss. We don't want to cause a panic," commanded Naruto knowing any action taken now would do that.
As for Tsukiumi herself, she just gave a quick nod to his order, and wrapped both of her arms around one of his so it would be trapped within her bosom. The two walked toward the park, knowing that such a large area had many secluded spots where any potential for fighting could take place, and without innocent people getting hurt. As the two walked, Naruto sensed that it was three Sekirei following him, one being familiar, and the second not so much though it was clear who sent them.
Hayato Mikogami.
"You can stop walking now Naruto-sensei. There is no point in hiding the fact you know we are here to fight you," replied Mutsu with Sekirei #65 Taki beside him on his left and Sekirei #15 Himeko on his right.
"I wasn't hiding it to fool you Mutsu. I was doing it so innocent people around us would not be caught in the crossfire," replied Naruto before turning around with Tsukiumi to look at the trio of enemies before him.
"I don't suppose I can't convince you to surrender?" asked Mutsu with Naruto letting out a small chuckle.
"You know me Mutsu. Even if you were stronger, I wouldn't back down, and would fight to the whatever end was before me," answered Naruto with Mutsu nodding.
"I do know you Naruto-sensei and its because I know you that I will be the one to fight you here today," said Mutsu, as he drew his sword, and saw how Tsukiumi was drawing water from her surroundings.
"Tsukiumi, you will fight the shy one with the bladed weapon," commanded Naruto with the busty blonde beside him nodding.
"When the time is right Taki, you know what to do," whispered Mutsu while seeing his sensei summon Kubikiribocho to his hands.
"Yes Mutsu-san," replied Taki, as she stood back to watch the two fight, and it didn't go unnoticed by Naruto that she was taking on the role of the spectator.
'She's got a power meant for something not involved with fighting. But what?' thought Naruto, as he redirected his eyes to focus on Mutsu, and at the task at hand.
The two charged each other, their weapons arched at their respected angles, and clashed violently with the ground breaking from the pressure exerted from the impact. During the fighting, Naruto could tell that Mutsu had been given his Norito, and so did Taki with the woman's power primed for use at its maximum potential. A clear sign of the Norito being at the ready to be use and Naruto briefly wondered if he should have given Tsukiumi her own Norito before the fight she was having right now.
"Water Celebration!" called out Tsukiumi, as she sent her foe, currently using the large bladed weapon's flat side as a shield, skidding backwards several yards, and gearing up for another attack.
Possibly not. Tsukiumi had made leaps and bounds in her training since being winged by him so a Norito now would be overkill in his mind. Though Naruto made a mental note that if things change, he wouldn't hesitate to wing the busty blonde woman, and show all three of Mikogami's Sekirei what it meant to cross him or those of his flock.
"Your desire to fight me has increased Mutsu. With Mikogami not around, you don't have a reason to hold back, and can go all out on me," remarked Naruto with a smirk on his face.
"Yes. While I disagree with the order given to fight you, the command of my Ashikabi is absolute, and I have no intention of disobeying him now Naruto-sensei," replied Mutsu before the two clashed again, their strength matching the other, and shaking the ground around them.
'Its hard to imagine the rumors about this man are true. But he's actually going toe to toe with Mutsu. I need to act carefully or the plan we created won't work,' thought Taki, as she watched with fascination at the sight of Naruto fighting Mutsu, and holding his own against Sekirei #5.
It was clear Mutsu was taught by Naruto in the way of the sword, as the two knew the others moves well, but where Mutsu was seemingly all swordsman, Naruto himself was not, and it showed when he used his limbs to combo based moves. A kick here, a punch there, sometimes more then one, and the agility Naruto used was unnatural for a human to possess. The fact Naruto taught Mutsu all his moves gave the Uzumaki a very clear advantage over the Sekirei and forced #5 to one knee and struggling to hold his own against his former teacher's strength.
"Taki! Do it now!" commanded Mutsu, as he knew he was losing, and decided to employ the plan before the sword being blocked cut into him.
Taki nodded and instantly called upon her Sekirei power to generate a heavy thick mist that quickly covered the area around the two swordsmen. Seeing Naruto had now become slightly distracted from the sudden addition to the mist, Mutsu pushed back enough to leap away, and retreat back into the mist until he was no longer visible.
"So you're using the mist to not only hide yourself, but to block my eyes, and the powers they have that can be used against you if called upon. Not bad Mutsu. I indeed taught you well," remarked Naruto in a praising manner, but even this did not hinder him like Mutsu no doubt thought, and the blonde knew the Sekirei swordsman was trying to duplicate the silent killing technique in his own unique way.
Impressive, but ultimately foolish.
"Husband!" called out Tsukiumi worriedly while fighting her opponent and pushing the shy woman back with the repeated onslaught of water she was using.
"I'm fine Tsukiumi. Focus on your own opponent for now!" replied Naruto knowing the woman would be concerned despite his powers and quickly sent a soothing pulse of sorts to Tsukiumi through their bond.
"And I shall! Cometh at me if thee dares fiend!" exclaimed Tsukiumi, as she returned to fighting the large double sided blade using Sekirei, and launch ball after compressed ball of water at the woman.
"Its over Naruto-sensei. But in this mist, you cannot win against me, and Taki working together," commented Mutsu through the mist.
"Is it? You forget Mutsu, I taught you about the silent killing technique. I taught you about moving silently without being heard or seen in the mist. I taught you everything you ever knew about this move. You are the student challenging the Master and I while it is impressive how you figured out how to recreated this scenario...this was also the most foolish!" replied Naruto, as he sensed where Mutsu was from his power alone, and spun around to perform a downward swing with incredible force.
Mutsu was slightly surprised by this, as he had miscalculated on his end, and barely had time to block the attack with his sword. However, the impact of Naruto's weapon against his own caused the Sekirei's sword to the point of getting dangerously close to breaking, and cutting into his flesh. Gritting his teeth, Mutsu took a step backward to relieve the pressure he was feeling, and get into a strong defensive position to hold back the massive sword.
'Damn it! I forgot Naruto-sensei has other skills that can detect me through the mist. My sword is badly damaged from that one swing, which means I need to retreat, and prevent further losses,' thought Mutsu, as he saw a glimpse of Himeko through a gap in the mist, and that she was unable to get close to Tsukiumi.
"Water Dragon!" exclaimed Tsukiumi, as she launched a dragon made entirely out of water to look like one Naruto showed her when showing the Water Dragon Jutsu, and had the water using Sekirei duplicate it with the power she possessed in water manipulation while Hinata helped with the control manipulation required to launch the water dragon at a target.
Himeko shrieked in fright, as she now ran away from the creature made up of water, but was ultimately hit with the devastating element, and sent the woman into some nearby trees. When the flow of water stopped, Himeko was down on the ground, her clothing was ripped to the point where she was barely wearing anything at all, and was currently unconscious before the Sekirei symbol on her back left.
Tsukiumi had just performed her first deactivation. A Level 3 deactivation.
'Oh crap!' thought Taki, as she didn't expect this to happen, and leaving her exposed to an attack by Sekirei #09 should she wish it.
"Taki! We're leaving!" called out Mutsu, as he was barely able to escape Naruto's blade from cutting into him, and jumped back through the mist once more.
"Cowards! Stand and fight!" exclaimed Tsukiumi, as she readied another water attack, and shot it toward the two fleeing Sekirei.
"Smashing Point!" said Mutsu, as he sheathed his sword, and smashed it onto the ground to create a shockwave with fissures while grabbing Taki before leaping high into the air to gain some necessary distance.
"Cowards!" called out Tsukiumi, as she tried to shoot them down, but Naruto grabbed her extended arm, and shook his head no.
"Let them go Tsukiumi. Hunting those two down now would be a waste of energy," said Naruto with Tsukiumi looking at him surprise before her tsundere protocols kicked in.
"What does thou mean it would be a waste of energy?! I have more then enough to go after the vile trollop and pathetic male Sekirei you were fighting!" protested Tsukiumi with Naruto nodding since that was true.
"Agreed. However, you did deactivate one of the three Sekirei that attacked, and I was under the distinct impression that when a Sekirei is victorious over another they had to stay to signify the winner of the fight per the rules stated. Surely you do not wish to go against the rules and make yourself look bad along with your Ashikabi?" countered Naruto with a small teasing smile on hi face, but Tsukiumi froze in shock, and went into brief moment of panic one saw with a tsundere personality.
"Of course not! If the other two or Hinata-sama learned I dishonored the sacred rules of a Sekirei battle, I would never hear the end of it. They would think I was trying to besmirch thy good name as a man and husband to us all! They would accuse me of trying to make you out to be a fiend and try to deny me the right to be near you" replied Tsukiumi, as she was currently pacing back and forth in worry, and missing Naruto's smile kept increasing at her growing panic over how she almost shamed him in terms of being an Ashikabi.
"Calm down Tsukiumi. You haven't done anything and the M.B.I. choppers will be here soon. Let's just sit down in front of a nearby tree and wait for them to pick her up," said Naruto, as he put Kubikiribocho away in the hidden storage seal on his body, and sat down in front of the nearest tree before patting the ground next to him for Tsukiumi to sit down on.
"Yes. Of course my husband. I shall join thee and sit down. But thou must promise not to speak a word to the others of my near dishonorable act!" said Tsukiumi, as she saw him nod, and then proceeded to sit extremely close to him with her head on his shoulder.
"Not a word," whispered Naruto to further soothe any doubts she may have and watched the M.B.I. choppers heading their way.
(Uzumaki Estate-Sometime Later)
"You were attacked by Mikogami's Sekirei? Again?!" said Hinata, as she wasn't sure how to feel about this since that spoiled rich boy was getting on her last nerve, and had a very strong desire to put her foot up the child's ass.
"Yeah. Three this time. One fought Tsukiumi while Mutsu went after me and another Sekirei used her ability to create mist so he could use the silent killing technique," said Naruto with Hinata looking furious at the idea of one of their students attacking one of them.
Even if they had no choice in the matter when commanded by their Ashikabi.
"I'm sorry for not being their Ashikabi-sama," said Akitsu, as she had her head down, and was waiting for whatever punishment he deemed fit for failing to be by his side.
"You don't have to apologize Akitsu. You didn't know. Besides, this incident was actually helpful for Tsukiumi, as it gave her a win against one of Mikogami's Sekirei, and put all other Ashikabi with their Sekirei on notice that she isn't one to cross in a fight," replied Naruto while Tsukiumi, who was clinging to his arm, and gave them all a tsundere based look of superiority.
It made Akitsu want to strangle the woman in her sleep again.
"My husband is correct. I have finally proven myself in honorable combat! As such, I have now earned the right to sleep with my husband, and have my wedding night," stated Tsukiumi firmly while Akitsu narrowed her eyes and Kazehana merely smirked since she didn't think the busty water using Sekirei would last long against him in terms of being intimate with their Ashikabi.
"I suppose that makes some sense. You have improved in your tolerance of Naruto-kun's other Sekirei and winning a battle against another Sekirei does grant you the power to have your 'wedding night' with Naruto-kun," said Hinata, as she saw Naruto send her an apologetic look, but the Hyuuga understood, and simply nodded since it would be wrong to deny them this since they were meant to be with him.
'Hinata-chan is so much like Miya its scary. I guess it no real surprise that Miya picked up such a calm yet frightening personality from her,' thought Kazehana since she saw so many similarities between Miya and Hinata since parting ways from the latter after the disbanded of the First Generation Discipline Squad that it was scary.
As for Tsukiumi, she was inwardly thrilled that Hinata had basically given her blessing to allow their union of intimacy to happen, and at the same time she was nervous about it. The idea of laying with her husband was not something Tsukiumi was against, but at the same time she was concerned about the actual moment itself, and the only two people she ask for any possible advice regarding the act of sleeping with him...were two women the water using Sekirei didn't want to ask.
Hinata-sama and the ice trollop Akitsu.
The wind strumpet was another option, but Tsukiumi was unsure if she should ask the former drunken rogue for advise, and seek the means to enjoy the intimacy with Naruto.
"I'll meet you in your room Tsukiumi," said Naruto while smiling, as he left for the busty blonde woman's bedroom, and missed the blushing face she was now sporting.
"Ah...you are nervous," stated Akitsu, as she saw Tsukiumi glare with the red face still there, and looked away with a hotly expression.
"So what if I am? This is my wedding night. My chance to be intimate with my husband. It will cement our bond together for all time," replied Tsukiumi while seeing Hinata had headed off to the main bedroom where she would no doubt be sleeping a Shadow Clone like the other two.
"Do you wish for some advice on pleasing Ashikabi-sama?" asked Akitsu like she was talking about the weather outside while Kazehana had to hold back the impulse to spit out sake in a comical fashion when hearing the ice user giving Tsukiumi advice on sex with Naruto.
"W-What? No! Of course not! I am a sophisticated woman and I will...I will perform my uh...my sacred duty as Naruto's wife by pleasing him in my own way," replied Tsukiumi while blushing an atomic red before walking off to her bedroom and shutting the door.
"Okay. I maybe slightly drunk, but even I know you did that to mess with her head," said Kazehana with Akitsu blushing slightly and looking away.
"Ah...maybe," answered Akitsu with a hint of slyness in her tone of voice before walking to her bedroom where a Shadow Clone would be waiting.
"For a girl who 'forgets' to wear panties, she's got a sly, and mischievous mindset. We are going to get along great!" said Kazehana to herself before heading to her own room to get some snuggle time with her Ashikabi's copy.
As for Tsukiumi, busty woman couldn't stop blushing after entering her bedroom, and it only increased (if that were even possible) when seeing Naruto removing his clothing. She could only stare at him in awe and a sense of lustful hunger filled Tsukiumi's loins at seeing him disrobe himself of his clothing. Tsukiumi was no stranger to Naruto's exposed flesh, as she had seen him naked on several occasions when sharing a bath with him, and Akitsu before Kazehana had made her untimely entrance into their lives. She had even seen him nearly naked via his Shadow Clone when the copy came into the room to keep the water using Sekirei calm when sleeping at night.
But for some strange reason...this was different for Tsukiumi and it took a moment for her to realize why that was the case.
'This is my wedding night. This is not a Shadow Clone,' thought Tsukiumi, as she walked over to Naruto wearing only his boxers, and looked up to see her approach him.
"Tsukiumi?" asked Naruto with the woman looking up at him, then away while clearly showing she was nervous, and shy about what would soon transpire.
"Thou will...thou will be gentle with me, correct?" asked Tsukiumi with Naruto smiling at her and kissed the woman on the lips.
"Does that answer your question?" asked Naruto with Tsukiumi nodding while before she leaned into him and felt his hands move to take off the various articles of clothing she was wearing.
Unlike Akitsu, this woman's attire was not a simple single one to two piece of clothing one could easily discard, and was in multiple parts. There was the black coat, the white shirt, the white short skirt, the belt strap around Tsukiumi's leg, her near knee high boots, and leaving the woman only in her undergarments. Both white in color, as it was what the woman preferred, and was not ashamed that her skirt was so loose or short that a mere gust of wind could show it to anyone looking.
However, at this very moment, the woman was nervous, and Tsukiumi felt her heart beating faster with each passing second. She felt him work the bra off and let it fall to the floor before Naruto gave the bountiful breasts in front of him a healthy inspection with his hands. He heard her moan appreciatively at his touch and caress that came from years of experience with Hinata while rubbing her legs together to keep the heat of her loins at bay. Though it did little good in stopping the sensation, as it only made Tsukiumi desire him more, and the excitement she felt spiked when his hands traveled south to cup her rear end.
"Husband...please!" begged Tsukiumi, as she wanted him to stop teasing, and get straight to the heart of the matter.
"Patience. All good things come to those who wait," replied Naruto huskily, as he gave her rump a healthy squeeze, and the moan from Tsukiumi that followed proved she liked it.
"Why must thou tease me?" asked Tsukiumi, as she held onto him, and shuddered when she felt Naruto's hands massaging her butt.
"Because you love it Tsukiumi-hime," replied Naruto with Tsukiumi trying to let out a growl of protest since she felt a proper woman would not admit such things.
"Do not say tha-AAAH!" protested Tsukiumi before letting out a small cry of surprise and pleasure, as she felt one of his hands slip into her panties with his fingers touching the outside of her clearly wet pussy.
"I don't have to say it Tsukiumi-chan. Your body is doing it for me," whispered Naruto into her ear and loved how she was getting more embarrassed by the minute before he moved the last remaining undergarment the woman wore down to her feet.
Tsukiumi response was to bury her face in his chest, clearly unable to speak, and Naruto kissed her through the long blonde locks of hair while guiding the woman to the bed. She didn't protest, as she was going to let him lead like a proper Japanese wife should, and let her husband take further control. She felt him nibble and kiss all over her body, the very sensation of each caress really causing the Sekirei's body to grow hot with desire, and crying out for more. When the small sound of clothing being removed was heard seconds later, Tsukiumi knew it was the last article of Naruto's own clothing, and knew he was about to perform the ultimate act of bonding with her. Glancing down, Tsukiumi's eyes widened in shock, as she had never truly seen Naruto's manhood like it was now, and wondered how something like that would be able to fit? Would it fit? Could it fit? How did Akitsu much less Hinata-sama take such a thing within their bodies when they were with him?
"Please...be gentle," whispered Tsukiumi, as she feared the first time with him would be too much for her, and he would be ashamed to have such a weak wife.
"Of course...my beautiful wife," Naruto whispered back, as he lined himself up, and gave a single thrust forward while Tsukiumi held him tightly from the sensation.
Despite looking human, Sekirei were in various ways different in the physical aspect of the human race, and it clearly showed with their many different abilities and powers. The other key aspect many did not know about Sekirei, if they knew about their physiology outside of M.B.I. was that unlike human adult females, Sekirei also didn't have hymens, and didn't have to worry about the pain from their "first time" when intimate with their Ashikabi.
'I am now one with my husband,' thought Tsukiumi, as she felt him fill her completely, and moaned slightly while feeling him wait for a moment so she could adjust.
"Are you ready?" asked Naruto while feeling the woman's tight passage was eager to work his cock to stimulate the appendage to release what his balls held.
"Keep going my husband," replied Tsukiumi, as she felt him move his hips back, and then forward to start at a slow pace.
"As you wish my Tsukiumi-hime," whispered Naruto, as he began to building up speed, but not too fast that it would make things uncomfortable for his Sekirei, and began his means of knowing what lit a fire inside this woman.
As for Tsukiumi, she couldn't help, but moan in pleasure, as she felt him moving inside of her, and felt a strong jolt of pleasure hit hard each time he thrust forward. It was building up inside of her, as she felt one of Naruto's hands grabbing Tsukiumi's breasts, and the other on her hips to hold her in place while he kept on thrusting. Naruto's mouth was attacking the various sweet spots along the neckline, making the busty woman moan further while one of her legs on instinct wrapped itself around his waist, trying to keep him locked in place, and found herself whispering his name with lust. Naruto found himself getting excited by this more and more with each passing moment, as he dominated Tsukiumi, and hearing the cries of passion from his Sekirei while doing it. He could feel her womanhood clenching tightly, massaging his cock, her growing cries of passion growing with each passing moment, and knew it wouldn't be long before she had her first orgasm.
"Husband! Husband! I-I feel something happening within me. I...I think I feel...I think I feel the moment approaching!" said Tsukiumi, as she had only heard of this moment from some of the females in passing once out of the lab, and their take on sexual connections with their male counterparts.
They spoke of how some men were good at it while others were bumbling idiots and that the latter wouldn't know how to please a woman if she came with an instruction manual to guide them. Tsukiumi herself had always feared that if she ever did lie with a lowly monkey for an Ashikabi, the filthy man would be ill equipped on various levels to give her the pleasurable sensation of an orgasm, and have to endure being left unsatisfied. It was one of the reasons why she hated the idea of being tied to an Ashikabi in the first place, but now with the pleasure she was receiving from the man that was her Ashikabi, Tsukiumi realized that some of the women that spoke of sexual intimacy didn't know what they were talking about.
All Tsukiumi knew was her Ashikabi was knew what he was doing and was very good at doing it to her.
"Cum Tsukiumi. Scream out my name and declare me yours. Don't be shy," whispered Naruto, as he kept thrusting, and heard his water using Sekirei's orgasm fast approaching from the way she was gasping.
"Husband! I...I...by the Gods I feel it! I'm so close Do not stop! I beg of you do not stop! Naruto! Naruto! NAAARUUUTOOO!" exclaimed Tsukiumi, as she screamed out with wide eyes at the incredible feeling, and had her first ever orgasm.
It was pure bliss for the water using Sekirei. When the orgasm had finally died down to the point where she could see clearly, Tsukiumi glanced over at Naruto, and saw him smirking. Confused, Tsukiumi felt him move a little down below, and her eyes widened in realization that while she had been granted such pleasure...he had yet to get his own. Feeling ashamed of herself, Tsukiumi look away, but gasped when Naruto kissed the exposed neck area, and heard him chuckle with amusement.
"Don't worry Tsukiumi-chan. Just because I haven't had my own release yet doesn't mean I won't get it. The purpose your first time was for you to feel pleasure before me and in that I was successful. Now the real fun begins," said Naruto into her ear, as he grinned devilishly, and saw Tsukiumi's eyes widen slightly.
"Real fun?" asked Tsukiumi while her breathing was coming back down to normal before she found herself being rolled until he was on the bottom this time.
"Yes. Now like I told Akitsu not that long ago...brace yourself my hime," replied Naruto, as he put one hand on her breast, and slapped the other one onto her shapely hips.
"Husband!" exclaimed Tsukiumi in surprise, as she did not expect this despite seeing Akitsu walking around with that slight limp, and glow about her body to indicate the woman had indeed been satisfied beyond measure.
"Let the fun begin," said Naruto, as he thrust his hips up, and began to set the pace for Tsukiumi to ride him.
It wouldn't be until much later that the poor woman (depending on your point of view) how much stamina her Ashikabi had and how much of it she was going to receive in the form of pleasure.
(The Next Morning)
Naruto got out of bed, Tsukiumi had been wrapped up around his body, sleeping soundly contently after being completely exhausted from the previous night's activities, and was looking angelic in all her nude glory. Naruto found it amusing in a sense since the woman was very possessive, calling the other two Sekirei in his life strumpets, trollops, and even called them concubines at times. Not to mention how she yelled and acted hotly at times from her tsundere personality giving the woman a temper that would make a grown Nara man piss himself.
Smiling down at the woman, who was yearning in her sleep for the comfort of his body, Naruto kissed Tsukiumi, and whispered that he needed to go out. The busty blonde's face twisted into a small frown at first, but soon relax in accepting this information, if only on a subconscious level, and went back to sleeping while grabbing onto the nearest pillow that had his scent. His smile increasing, Naruto left Tsukiumi to her dreams, and exited the bedroom to find Akitsu standing to his left at the ready to do whatever it is he asked of her.
"Ashikabi-sama," said Akitsu in a submissive tone while bowing her head to match it in his presence.
"Morning Akitsu-chan. Sleep well?" asked Naruto with Akitsu blushing a bit.
"Ah...yes," replied Akitsu, as she had been given some affection from Naruto's Shadow Clone, and while it wasn't the actual man himself...the copy was more then proficient in making her happy since it was still him.
"Hungry?" asked Naruto with Akitsu nodding before she followed him into the kitchen to make breakfast and both of them saw Hinata there making something.
"I made all of you some eggs, bacon, and poured some orange juice for everyone once the others wake up," said Hinata, as she saw Naruto smiling happily, and kissed the woman passionately.
"I love you," whispered Naruto with his eyes overflowing with the love he had for this one woman.
"And I love you too," Hinata whispered back and knew he was still coming to terms with having three other women in the house that required the same love she got from him.
Akitsu merely watched the connection between them silently, as she knew that while her Ashikabi would never abandon any of his Sekirei (herself included), he would certainly NOT abandon his wife, and would love Hinata for all time. That kind of love and eternal devotion was the reason why Sekirei went to find their chosen ones, their destined ones, their Ashikabi, and seek the love they could not find elsewhere.
Akitsu truly felt blessed to not only have received her wings, but gained them from such a loving, and devoted Ashikabi that was Uzumaki Naruto.
"I hate to bring this up, but...when do you have to leave for the M.B.I. sponsored Medical Conference?" asked Naruto, as he heard Hinata let out a sigh, and knew the answer would suck.
"In a few more days. I would have taken our own company Jet to the event, but M.B.I. is picking up the bill, and I figured why not get every single cent out of them for this while we still can," answered Hinata, as she smiled a bit, and Naruto returned the smile with one of his own.
"I'll miss you," whispered Naruto while Hinata nodded.
"And I'll miss you too, but it won't be long. A week. Maybe two. Besides, this will give you a chance to...bond with your Sekirei more. Something we both know is still needed and can't be done with me here. We both know my presence holds you back," said Hinata with Naruto frowning and held her close.
"Don't say that! I want you here with me," said Naruto while Hinata smiled and enjoyed the warmth of her husband.
"So do I and you will when I come back, but until then...you need to properly bond with all three of them," whispered Hinata, as she saw him nod in understanding, and kissed her passionately.
"I don't mind bonding with them. I do mind that it bothers you," countered Naruto while Hinata just let out a small chuckle.
"And I keep telling you it doesn't. Don't you believe me when I tell you that it doesn't? Don't you trust me to tell you the truth if it did?" Hinata shot back with Naruto nodding.
"Of course I trust you Hinata-chan. That goes without saying," said Naruto with Hinata smiling at him.
"Then trust me when I say it doesn't bother me one bit. As long as you still love me, then I have no problem with this, and won't no matter what," replied Hinata with Naruto now hugging her tightly.
"I will always love you. I guess I'm still afraid I'll break your heart and I don't want to do that. I'm such a baka for worrying," said Naruto with Hinata humming into his chest.
"The fact you worry about my feelings means you care so you're not a baka," whispered Hinata, as she looked up at him, and kissed the man one more time before she removed herself from his embrace.
Naruto could only smile and the trio sat down to eat, Akitsu being quiet the entire time, and keeping what she saw between them to herself. It was an emotional moment and the ice user felt that any action on her part or anyone else's would be inappropriate. Tsukiumi would possibly do something in usual Tsukiumi fashion resulting in putting her foot in her mouth and Kazehana would go on about love regarding the two. While the latter of the two would no doubt be more welcome, it didn't mean it was no less inappropriate, and Akitsu was glad no one else saw what she did. Shortly after that thought past, Kazehana came walking out of her bedroom, looking a little tired from all the drinking she did the previous night, and waved weakly to everyone.
"Kazehana, when are you going to stop drinking so heavily? It can't be good for you and even though you are stronger then a Sekirei I doubt your body can keep taking such hard hitting punishment," asked Naruto with the woman waving off his concern.
"Even if that were true, you know how much I love sake, and I'm not drinking as badly now that I'm your Sekirei," answered Kazehana with Naruto looking a bit skeptical.
"Ah...its true. I've notice Kazehana has decreased her intake of sake since living here with Ashikabi-sama," added Akitsu, as she had made it a small habit to keep tabs on the other Sekirei in the house when she, or they weren't near him.
"Noticed? Or spied?" asked Kazehana with a smile since she knew Akitsu was watching her or Tsukiumi when Naruto wasn't around.
"Ah...both," replied Akitsu since she wasn't about to deny it and be called a liar.
Her Ashikabi hated those that spoke unnecessary lies and liars.
"Well that's good to hear. My Godmother drank a lot back in the day when I was a kid and it didn't do wonders for her mind or the body. I don't want either to happen to you," said Naruto with Kazehana blushing at his concern.
"Oh the love! The love! My Ashikabi's love sings to me through the very wind!" gushed Kazehana, as she moved left to right about love, and hearts appeared out of nowhere around her.
"She hasn't changed a bit," whispered Hinata with Naruto nodding.
"Yeah, but I'll take her gushing talk about love over the Genjutsu that Gai, and Lee made while yelling about the 'Spring Time of Youth' when hugging each other any day of the week," countered Naruto in a whisper back with Hinata agreeing.
After Kazehana quieted down, the four began eating before Tsukiumi eventually came out of her room properly dressed, but was clearly acting shy, and ] embarrassed despite the glow she was admitting from the previous night. Her face was sporting a blush, as she sat down trying to look like a proper woman of sophistication, and was ignoring the all knowing look she was now getting from Kazehana.
"So...did Naruto-kun rock your world?" asked Kazehana when Tsukiumi began drinking some juice and resulted in the blonde woman spitting it out comically across from her at Akitsu.
Fortunately for Akitsu, who had faster reflexes then believed by most when seeing her usual slow movement when walking beside Naruto, dodged the liquid while not even being bothered by the fact it happened, and waited for the stream to pass before she had continued eating. Being an silent yet observing woman allowed Akitsu to anticipated people's actions and reactions depending on the various environmental factors around them.
Case in point with Kazehana speaking to Tsukiumi just when the blonde Sekirei was drinking something.
Tsukiumi herself had the look of a fish while blinking several times and then growled at Kazehana for bringing up the previous night's events she had with her husband like they were two common whores in a brothel talking about past clients.
"That is none of thy business wench!" exclaimed Tsukiumi with Naruto smiling at the two while glancing at Hinata who smiled back.
"Oh? So you're saying Naruto-kun wasn't good at all in bed last night? Or maybe he was too much for little Miss Panty Flash to handle?" taunted Kazehana with Tsukiumi's red face getting even redder while glaring at the wind using Sekirei.
"Silence thy vile wind strumpet! My time with my husband was wonderful when we coupled and the pleasure went beyond all words that could describe it. I won't stand by and let thee dishonor him in saying his performance was not up to par because such a statement is a lie!" exclaimed Tsukiumi, as she stood up from her chair, and pointing at Kazehana in a classic tsundere pose.
Before Tsukiumi realized what was said and the red face of anger she was sporting turned into that of embarrassment before quickly sitting down.
"That was mean Kazehana," said Naruto with Kazehana winking at him.
"Maybe, but I just made sure everyone here knew how manly you are when it comes to loving the female body," replied Kazehana with Naruto shaking his head.
"Just for that, you aren't allowed to drink sake inside, or around the house for the rest of the week," said Hinata in a very Miya like voice.
'I should have seen that coming,' thought Kazehana, as she slumped her head in defeat, and knew fighting Hinata on this was like fighting Miya.
It was just not possible.
(A/N: YAY! Another update. Super long for all you guys and hope you enjoy it. For the record, Miya will not be made Naruto's Sekirei, as she loves Takehito, and I'm not going to take that away in my fic. As for Naruto himself, he's going to get involved more, and focus on Mikogami before going after Higa. Until next time...PEACE!)
