Planless

Disclaimer: I do not own not own Sekirei

Chapter 23:

The world can change in a few moments. It only took one moment and one shot to plunge the world in to War World One. And for Minato it only took seconds and one kiss to change his world. Everyone eventually has one moment that can change their entire world. That moment was soon coming.

Mikogami didn't plan on fighting Minato especially after he became so powerful. Mikogami wanted to win the game and he needed to wing more Sekirei but Minato he'd kept the last few wingless away from him and everyone. The game hadn't changed and he was desperate for something to happen. He lived his entire life sheltered in a mansion and the Sekirei had been his release. Like the child he was he wanted more of his toys. He wanted that excitement that Minaka talked about in his video message. So he and Higa made a plan. He'd strike draw out the Sekirei and the battle would not end well but that was when Higa's Sekirei would arrive and attack him. They catch them by surprise and terminate them until they got the unwinged Sekirei. He watched from a distance though binoculars. A fog had risen and it clouded his view but he was happy since it meant that one of the last unwinged Sekirei was there.

Minato didn't like his Sekirei to fight and certainly hated the idea of fighting for him. He would rather find a way to end this without fighting. He knew it wasn't a choice though. Most of his Sekirei went out into the fog to fight. Minato hated not being able to say anything and stayed in the Inn with some of the Sekirei who wanted to make sure nothing happened to him.

Matsu was busy on the computer as she wouldn't be helpful on the battle outside. Kazehana stayed by Minato's side making sure he'd stay safe. Kuu who no one wanted to get hurt stayed by her big brother. Kuu held Minato's hand. Kazehana didn't show it but she was worried, it broke her heart the very idea that something could tear her and Minato apart before they managed to become parents and share the miracle of their love with the world.

Underground Yukari's head hurt, a lot. She found herself on the cold ground as she opened her eyes.

"Yukari?" Shiina whispered to her.

She opened her eyes and she saw Shiina and Mutsu standing over her. "What happened?"

"Something caused the passage to collapse." Mutsu informed her. "I think the attack on the Inn has started. We can still move forward but we can't move back."

Yukari rubbed her head, "Well, that was the plan. I guess we continue."

"Something didn't go as planned." Shiina told her. "The Unwinged Sekirei got trapped on the other side of the collapse. "

Are they Okay? Did they get hurt?" Yukari questioned.

"Yes, they're fine" Miya told her. I got a glimpse as the ceiling as it fell, they managed to move out of the way."

"Maybe we can move the rocks." Yukari suggested.

"I don't think so." Haruka spoke up. "If we try to move it it might cause it to collapse more." Haruka spoke from experience when he work in construction while he tried to get into college.

Yukari looked around everyone else seemed to have made it and didn't seem to be hurt so she decided, "There is nothing we can do. I think we should just keep going."

They silently agreed and kept walking.

Back in the Inn the fight had started outside. The fog made it hard for any of them to see anything and the terrain had been changed by Kuu so they weren't sure what was happening.

Matsu typed on her laptop but sensed Minato's worry, "Don't worry, they're all strong and the training from Miya only made them stronger."

"What if they attack each other by mistake?" Minato countered.

"They're your Sekirei and they're connected to you. They can sense each other they'll just attack those that they can't sense."

"Yes, just have fate in us like we have fate in you." Kazehana told Minato.

"What?!" Matsu shouted.

"What's wrong, Matsu?" Kuu questioned.

"My signal is lost." Matsu explained. "Someone knocked me off. I lost track of everything that I tracking. I lost the system around the house. I don't know how many are out there."

Outside the battle still raged without any sign of either side winning. A small flash of light cut through the fog, the same light that Minato knew came from a termination. A heavy pain shot through his gut, a sense of guilt. He was then distracted when the floor started to move startling them all.

"What?!" Minato questioned.

The hatch opened up and Kujou stuck her head out. She rubbed her head, "Ouch."

"Kujou?" Minato questioned the teary eye Sekirei.

"Hurry up." Kuruse shouted from below.

Minato gave Kujou his hand to helped her out and then the other up. Soon Kujou, Kuruse, Himeko and Taki were before them.

"What are you guys doing here?" Matsu questioned.

Kuruse answered, "The tunnel collapsed. I think it was from some attack. The other got through though. We were kind just trailing behind and didn't get clear."

"Looks like you're stuck here." Kazehana told them.

Himeko started to cry, "This is all our fault. If we didn't come here they wouldn't be attacking."

The house shook as some from another attack.

"Don't cry." Minato told him. "We choose to help you. It probably would happen anyway. Besides its not like you could let him wing you against your will. I couldn't let that happen either."

"Thank you." The silver haired Saki smiled.

Something still didn't sit right.

As the other reached the end of the passage just like Matsu had told them there was a ladder.

"I'll go up first." Miya insisted.

The mask showing up made sure no one argued. Outside and above mercenaries gathered. Higa hired them and after bribing some people at the construction crew,finding out about the passage, he knew where to place them and have them wait for to attack. They knew to knock out who ever got out of the place. The exit looked like a power grind box on the corner. Higa planned that they would take the Sekirei and Ashikabi and and make them work for him. The box moved revealing someone was about to to come up and they readied their weapons. They only hesitated for a second as a purple haired woman came up. As they readied to attack they lost sight of her. Miya heard their breathing and ran into the trees and bushes they were hiding in and with her powers just knocked them all out. She didn't waste time only a few seconds. Leaving them hidden in the brush. It didn't take much effort and she went back to the opening, "Come on up everything is fine."

She looked back a few blocks away where the fog covered the streets.

Back at the Inn they waited inside. Kuruse held her weapon, her trident, hopping not to find the need to use it.

"I'm hungry." Kuu told the other.

"Come with me." Kazehana told her offering her a hand. "Let's find you something to eat."

Kuu took her hand and they hurried into the kitchen to find her a snack.

Matsu huffed, "I'm going to try and to hook up directly, maybe then I can get the system back online."

Matsu grabbed her gear and quickly headed towards her room leaving the other in a quiet space. Well, quiet minus the battle outside. The four Sekirei thought about the Inn that had become their first home in a long time and how they blamed themselves for it. Minato had opened it up to them. They reflected on the last moment underground, they held back while walking standing behind everyone else. They were watching the other Sekirei with their Ashikabi. They felt a longing they had ignored and a pull, something pulling them back to the Inn. It took them a moment to realize it up but they knew what was happening.

They were reacting to him. They had been for sometime. Kuruse thought it was simply a reaction because of the influence Minato had since he had winged so many Sekirei and they would get use to it. They were wrong in fact it got stronger. Every time they got close to him it got stronger.

Kuruse spoke, "Minato, what do you feel about us?"

"I like you girls. You're strong and brave. No matter how bad things got you kept trying to make it through."

"That's very kind of you to say." Taki said as she started to blush.

"Oh," Kujou said. "we've been together for a while now. If it's alright we'd like to stay together."

"Sure, I don't see why not." Minato answered.

Delighted with the answer Kujou grabbed Minato and kissed him. A pair of white wings emanated from her smiled as she pulled away.

"What?" Minato questioned.

"I think she meant if you don't mind." Himeko said, "Can we all be your Sekirei?"

Minato paused for a moment, "If that's what you want."

Himeko pressed her lip to his for a chaste light kiss a pair of silvery blue wings appeared behind her. Taki kissed him next for a tender kiss and silver wings shot out. Kuruse finally kissed him for a sweet kiss and a pair of gold wings erupted.

The four of them said, "Now and forever our ashikabi."

It was a tender moment, which was interrupted by a splash of water. The others entered the room and Tsukiumi was the one in front with her forehead vein popping out.

She yelled, "Minato! How dare you consort with your concubines while you're real wife does battle!"

"You winged them!" Musubi chirped. "Yay!"

Yomi then snarked, "You could have saved us time if you didn't earlier. We ended up terminated all the Sekirei. "

"You did?" Minato asked.

"Yeah," Haihane told him. " We have them outnumbered and out powered. I'm not sure what they thought was going to happen."

Not too far off Mikogami spoke on his phone outraged, "I need to speak to Izumi Higa."

Higa's assistant kept keep putting him off. The plan fell apart when Higa's Sekirei never showed up. All his Sekirei were beaten and terminated when they attacked. He couldn't believe it, he lost, he felt so powerless. Everything was over for him, he played and he gambled everything and he had simply lost.

Back the Inn They started to repair what was broken during the battle knowing Seo would come soon and pick up the fallen Sekirei. Luckily for them no one from the Inn was terminated, only a few minor injuries that they were taking care off. Minato got some towels for him and his new Sekirei to dry themselves up while he tried to call Yukari. She had her phone off because of the other decided to take her to the MBI run hospital to make sure she wasn't seriously hurt.

"No, no, no." Matsu came running into the room. "They had to plan this. They outsmarted me."

"What's wrong?" Minato questioned Matsu having gotten all their attention.

"I don't know how but he convinced Mikogami and used him as a distraction." Matsu tried to explain. "The battle was just to distract us, that's the only explanation."

"Explain!" Tsukiumi ordered.

"Yeah, Kagari told her. "Take a deep breath and explain it in words we can understand."

"Higa." Matsu started. "During the battle his company bought a huge chunk of stock from MBI. The stock prices had been going down since the explosion but no one was really buying them like this. I would have stopped it. He trying to take control the company from us, well, the secret boss behind this. He is now influencing the other stock holders telling them that they need leadership. Their going to put it up for a vote next week. If he can get enough votes he can put himself in charge of MBI. To make himself the president of MBI"

"What exactly does that mean?" Uzume asked.

"Bad things. He'll have access to all the technology there. He could close down the hospital for the Ashikabi."

"The one that's taking care of my mom?" Minato asked.

"Yes, he can cancel our MBI card and leave us all with no money. He could do that to every ashikabi and Sekirei telling them they work for him or have no money. Minaka could stop them but now...maybe Takami but they can't do that now."

They knew Higa would do that if he could. Everything they had built would be taken away.

"Can't you do something with your computers?" Benitsubasa questioned.

"No, I tried, someone like me must have beefed up the security. If he gets the votes."

Kazehana spoke up, "What about a relative? A relative of Minaka? They'd get his votes and his stocks after his death, right?"

Matsu listened as that was the first time Kazehana used Minaka's name in a long time, "Yeah, that might help stop Higa from taking control."

Kazehana didn't ever plan on bringing it up but maybe it was time, "How about his son? His and Takami's son?" She looked into Minato's eyes.

"What?" Was what they all said.

Kazehana explained about a secret she had known for a while. She had loved Minaka but he didn't feel the same way. He had two children and she knew the mother. Kazehana and Takami weren't very close but she did let her know she had his children. She explained this to them. Minato's heart raced as for the first time in his life he knew who his father was.

Across the city Yukari was having her own world changing moment. The Doctors had been running test on her for a while and the other had been waiting outside for her as she waited in the patients room. Then an attractive woman with old eyes and a powerful presence walked in. She looked young but Yukari knew she was older, in a way she reminded her about her mother.

"You're an Ashikabi, right?" She said plainly.

"Yeah, I came in for a head trauma."

"Yes, I know, those test came out clean. You'll be fine."

"Good, I'll-"

"Those two male Sekirei are yours, right? The ones i saw outside."

"Yeah, what about it?"

"It's just something about the test I found something interesting."

"What? Am I sick?"

"No, it's just something improbable happened. Sometimes a woman releases two eggs instead of one."

"Yeah, sometimes a woman gives birth to fraternal twins because of it if they are both fertilized. What does that have to do with it?"

"It just proved something I have theorized about." She seemed amused by all this. "You're pregnant."

"..." Yukari was speechless.

"And if the test are correct with the equipment we have available here tell us that you had two eggs fertilized."

"So, it's going to be twins?" Yukari regained her voice.

"Yes, and it seems like they both are going to have Sekirei as a father. The really improbable thing about it is that each egg was fertilized by a different male Sekirei."

Yukari just stared randomly.

"I'll give you sometime to think things over and I'll check you in so we can run a few test for the next few days." With that her doctor walked out of the room.

Authors Notes: Boom goes the dynamite. They know who their dad is, Yukari is pregnant, they might lose MBI and get lose everything or forced to work for the bad guy. Higa got rid of one of his opponents and might get rid of them all. So what did you guys think and like. Leave a review. Let's see if we can get up to three hundred reviews.
