Chap 9

A/N:

Hey guys welcome back to another chapter of my story. Now you may be complaining about me not giving you the chance to have Karasuba being winged and I'm truly sorry for that. Don't worry though, your, and also my, favorite sekirei will be winged in this one so cheers to everybody.

Also if you're worried that I'm not posting some lemons with Akitsu and Uzume in it don't worry. I'll write that one up along with Toyotama and Karasuba in it. About Miya? Well I'm still not sure about it. I'll have to think about it. Leave a comment in the Reviews Section and take a vote whether Miya should be with my OC or with Minato. And as usual, I'll pick the choice that has the most votes.

Anyways, enough about this rant and let's get on with the story shall we?

Disclaimer: I do not own Sekirei. I own my OC character.

Previously...

"It's just that he asked me if I have any of my previous notes, sample tests etc. Thing is I don't know where they are or if I kept them at all. If I don't have them, I may as well have to grab the online samples my mom printed out for me when I was getting ready to enter there."

"Don't worry. I believe that they're there. Just have to look harder for it."

Finishing up his dinner, he texted back to Minato. After waiting for a few minutes, he replied back saying thanks and that he looks forward to it. Closing his phone, he went back up to their room and started looking for some interesting article to read. Closing out from Reddit, he placed his headphones on and listened to some music on Youtube to get a feel for his next "project" (which is just his playlists). Once he got the ideas crunched out from his brain, he wrote some notes down on his tablet and some instruments he thinks he'll be using for a couple of his pieces.

"Well that should keep me occupied for the next week or two." Cairo mused.

Checking the time on his computer, he closed the monitor, climbed onto his spot on the bed, and waited for the girls to finish up whatever it is that they are doing. Once they got into bed with their beloved ashikabi, Cairo clapped his hands twice closing the lights. The occupants slept through the night going into the land of dreams.

Present Time...

Cairo along with Minato were in the living room with the former tutoring the latter. Before the young black haired adult came into the house, Uzume went to the mall to buy some personal stuff while Akitsu and Kazehana were peacefully sleeping in their bedroom. Going in to the bonus room, he started to rummage through the piles of boxes stacked upon one another. He looked through each box one by one until he was able to find what he was looking for. Stacking the boxes back to their original place, he grabbed the box and went back up towards the living room.

Luckily, he met Minato there and well the started their little study session.

"Alright Minato. Answer these questions from these old sample tests and we'll see how you do. Also if you need to show your work, then please place them over these scrap pieces of paper. While I don't need to remind you to label what problem you are working on, please do so that way I can check those problems with ease. Once your done, just place them next to me and I'll check them. Got any questions?" asked Cairo.

Minato shook his head.

"Begin."

So the two year ronin started to concentrate while Cairo went towards the bathroom to grab some medicine to treat his still healing leg. So far, his leg has been healing rather well and everyday whenever he walks he could feel less pain. Well thank the wonders of technology for doing that. Now he can go back to work while resuming his duties as an ashikabi.

Once he was done placing the ointments and other medicine on his leg, he wrapped it up with a new lair of bandages and gauze. Placing the items aside, Minato gave the first page of the sample test along with the sheet that showed his work to him. Grabbing his red pen, along with his reading glasses, he started checking his work just to make sure he got it right. To his shock and amazement, he got all of them correct without a single error on them.

If he was this smart, then how come he became a two year ronin? He'll have to ask that question later when he's done with these tests. After he was done working on them, Cairo proceeded to check the sheets and as always, his performance was stellar.

"Nice job Minato. You answered the questions perfectly." Cairo said with an impressed tone.

"Thanks Cairo."

"Then tell me this kid. How come you became a two year ronin if you can answer these questions perfectly?" Minato started rubbing the back of his neck nervously as if the red haired man is gonna reprimand him for being a nervous wreck.

"W-well you see I tend to get nervous whenever I take the real deal and I'm pressured for time. I took two years worth of cram school but every time I tried to take it, my nervousness hits me like a tidal wave."

"Don't worry about it kid. Everybody gets nervous when they are faced with standardized tests and that's normal. You have the smarts to answer these difficult questions no doubt. But the two things that you're lacking are pacing, and self confidence. I was in the same boat you were when I was in your shoes but the one thing that my old man told me is to have faith in myself and also steadily pace myself when there's a time limit. That's how I was able to get in. Understand that kid?" Minato nodded.

"Alright then. Since we did this at your own pace, let's do this again, this time with a time limit. Now I know that you don't do so well under pressure but trust me, once you get good at this, you're not gonna sweat it. You ready for it?" asked Cairo.

"Hai!"

Setting the timer to the time limit, (which was written on the sample test by the way), the genius went to work. While he's at it, Cairo got on his phone and started to read the latest manga that came out. That's right ladies and gentlemen. Our resident DJ is reading manga. Now it wasn't the first time he read manga. He started to watch anime and read manga when he's around 12 years old all throughout college. Then when he started to work in his favorite profession and got involved in the Sekirei Plan, he stopped doing so. Whenever he has spare time does he dive back in.

The alarm clock blared and Minato stopped whatever he was doing. Handing the sample test back, he looked at it and was amazed that he was able to finish the questions when he's under the time limit.

"Well will you look at that kid! I knew you can do it. Once you have confidence and can pace yourself, this test shouldn't pose a problem to you. By the way, do you want to keep these so that you can study them the night before you go into the test?" said Cairo making the young man perk up.

"A-are you sure Cairo? I-I mean I know you're done with college and whatnot but do you want to readily give them away to me?" asked Minato.

"Meh. I couldn't care less about it. Plus they're just gathering up dust and taking up unwanted space."

"Thanks." Minato took them and placed them in his bag. Looking down at his watch, he realized that it's about time he has to go.

"I gotta go. I promised Miya-san that I wouldn't be late for lunch. But thank you for helping me out."

"No problem kid. Just make sure you don't get into trouble alright? I still can't walk around normally since my leg is still healing and as such, I can't save your ass from some people trying to harass you. Understand?"

"Loud and clear."

The black haired man got up from his spot, slipped his shoes on, and walked out from his house. Once he's out of sight, he locked the door and decided to start cooking some lunch.

"So what leftovers can we reheat this time..."

Just as he was about to open fridge, he heard the doorbell ring. Wondering if Minato got lost on his way, he slowly but steadily walked to the front door. Opening it up, he was greeted by a beautiful woman who has her eyes closed. But what made his eyes widen is that this woman standing in front of him is the same one he envisioned in his dreams. He could feel the aura of an expert and merciless killer radiating off from her and boy was he damn scared. If he makes one wrong move, he's practically a goner and he doesn't want to leave the world just yet.

Sexy and deadly. Such a dangerous combo.

"Ara ara. You would be Cairo Gonzales am I correct?" asked the silver haired beauty.

"W-why yes. U-um this might sound crazy but you look like the same exact woman in my dreams. She has the same get up along with the same physical characteristics." said Cairo.

"Fufufu. Don't worry about it ashikabi-kun as we are fated to meet each other. Or that's what the crazy CEO bastard says. Aside from that, please take responsibility as you're the one that made me feel not only this unbearable heat but also for making me feel this vulnerable and weak."

With that, the silver haired beauty grabbed him by the shirt and kissed him roughly. Black-like wings sprouted from her back and illuminated the area around her. When the light show ended she then introduced herself to him.

"With my sword, let me cut down anything that would harm my ashikabi. Karasuba Sekirei Number Four. Yours forever."

"W-why hello K-Karasuba. Nice to meet you hehehe." Cairo sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck. But when he heard that her name was Karasuba, already he knew that he was looking at Kazehana's old teammate. Oh boy. He can already imagine the reactions the two are going to have when they meet each other after some time. Kazehana would more likely threaten her along the lines of "Harm him in any way, shape or form, I'll kick your ass". Or something like that.

Just as he was about to let the Black Sekirei in the house, he saw Uzume, with the groceries in hand, standing there in a flurry of emotions. Shock, jealousy, fear, and anger. More so with fear than the other three emotions as she just watched the infamous Dog of MBI get winged by her loved one. Not only that but she was also clingling onto him rather possessively. It was something that she wanted to do all along and she got the chance to do so! Oh how infuriating!

"Ara ara. I didn't know you had a woman living here with you already. Such a player you are~." Karasuba teased her ashikabi. While she knew he has winged three sekirei, she couldn't help but decide to tease her soon to be lover. If she's gonna play this stupid game and be with her ashikabi for the majority of the time being, might as well get to know. Go on a few dates and possibly after the third or fourth date engage in rigorous passionate overloading sex.

Oh how she got turned on by the nasty erotic images of the two going at it like rabbits. Just thinking about it made her want to grab her ashikabi, go to a bed, lock the door, and violently fuck like there's no tomorrow. Screw dating when you can learn each other in a different but very intimate way.

"Um...Karasuba. W-what are you thinking?" Cairo asked her nervously.

"Oh you have no idea ashikabi-kun~. The ecstatic things that we're gonna do together in our private and lovely time. Oh I'm really tempted right now to do just get it done and over with.~"

The red haired man realized that she was imagining him and her in such dirty and comprising positions. He blushed in embarrassment and had a bit of blood trickling down from his nose. Just as he was about to say something, he heard an all familiar voice ask,

"W-what is she doing here Cairo?" He saw Uzume standing there with a nervous look on her face. Just as he was about to respond, the silver haired beauty beat him to the punch.

"Well if you want to know Uzu-chan, I came here so that I can have my wings be emerged. Got a problem with that?" Uzume forgot her nervousness and growled at how she responded to her in such a rude manner. She was ready to unleash her veils even though she's a hell lot stronger than her. Separating off from her ashikabi, Karasuba unleashed her nodachi and was ready to rumble. She had the look of pure bliss and bloodlust as she was ready to have some fun. Just before things get out of hand, Cairo, however, stepped in and stopped the two from engaging and possibly destroy the house in the process.

"Alright that's enough! I don't want the house looking like a tornado ran through it once the two of you finished your fight. While I understand you not liking to add another sekirei to our little group-"

"Harem is probably the right term." Cairo just ignored her comment.

"Not the time to be joking around Karasuba. Like I said. I know that you may not like to have her in our group but I can't turn down a sekirei from meeting her destined one. It's bound to happen one way or the other. So for now, place your petty differences aside and work together as a team. Understand you two?"

"Hai." Uzume numbly said to her ashikabi. She hates the idea of fighting alongside a bloodthirsty sekirei that wants nothing more than to kill others just for pleasure but what can she do? Karasuba is already winged by him and they're now sekirei and ashikabi. Plus if they're ever gonna stop this mad game from going on further, having strong sekirei like Karasuba, Akitsu, and Kazehana would definitely help them in their favor.

For now, she'll suck it up and deal with her.

"Hai ashikabi-kun. Now then, I'll leave you to your devices as I'll be starting to pack my stuff and move in to your place tonight or tomorrow morning. I don't have that much anyways so it shouldn't be a problem." While she may not like to work side by side with what she deemed to be "weaklings" she doesn't really want to go against her ashikabi's wishes. Even though she doesn't like it that way, what can she do? After all, it was her duty as a winged sekirei to abide by whatever her ashikabi commands.

Karasuba gave him one last kiss on the lips before she walked away from the property. Once she was gone, the busty brunette sighed in relief. Cairo hobbled his way to her and helped her with the bags she was carrying. While it may not look like a burden, his gentleman side kicked in.

Once the two went inside the house, Uzume hastily grabbed the bags from him and left. He raised his brow up in confusion as to why she would react in such a way. What would be in those bags that would make Uzume react that way?

"Must be personal stuff or womanly essentials." Nevertheless, he just decided to let it go. He could smell the aroma of food being cooked so he decided to see who was cooking. Entering in the kitchen, he saw Kazehana cooking up some of the leftovers while Akitsu was nowhere to be found. Cairo assumed that she must be in their room still sleeping. Without turning around the wind sekirei said to Cairo,

"So it seems we're gonna have an extra guest coming in huh?" He couldn't tell what she was feeling behind that tone of voice. Fear? Anger? Jealousy?

"H-how did you-"

"Know? Well since our bond has deepened, I was able to establish a mental link between our minds. Allows me to feel what you feel and understand what you think. Also if you're in danger, it allows me to find you where you are." This blew Cairo's mind. He didn't know that Sekirei could easily establish such a link towards their Ashikabi.

"So you already know that Karasuba is coming in already." the purple haired sekirei nodded her head and continued to monitor what she was cooking. Cairo sighed before he spoke to her softly,

"Look I know that you're not really fond of having her around the house but she's reacting to me and I'm her ashikabi. My hope is that you can bear with her love. I understand you being wary and worried that she may do something crazy that would not only harm me but also innocent bystanders. But all I ask is that place your differences aside and work together as a team. She may be a sadistic and violent woman but I don't think she's a bad person in general. Give her a second chance and we'll see from there."

"But what if she doesn't want to change her old ways? I highly doubt she'll give up her love for pain and killing the weak just because you're her ashikabi." Kazehana said as she turned off the stove and placed the meal on the table.

"You're correct but it will solely depend upon her. I'm not going to abandon her when she needs help nor am I going to force her to change her ways. After all, one can't change another. The effort for change has to come from the individual not from an outside source. Karasuba may look tough and hardened on the outside, but on the inside is a vulnerable soul surrounded by a wall. You may not think of her having such a thing but even the hardest and toughest person isn't immune to vulnerability. Like I said, if she takes the helping hand we'll see from there." Kazehana smiled. While he may be a young adult, he is wise beyond his years.

"I'm so lucky to land such an amazing ashikabi. What did I do to deserve you?" Cairo just grinned.

"While I may not believe in fate, I think we're destined to meet each other. Corny as it may sound, I do think it's true."

"Oh you poetic man. Come here and kiss me~."

Leaning down to her, he gave her a passionate kiss and her wings sprouted out from her back. Once the bright wings disappeared, she gave him a loving smile. Once Cairo called the other girls down for lunch, he helped her with placing the food on the table. Finishing up the task, they all assembled to the dining table and started eating their lunch.

In Maizon Izumo Inn...

Miya Asama, owner of Izumo Inn and widow of her late husband, Takehito Asama, was sitting on a wooden layout drinking some tea. While she may appear stoic on the outside, she's frantic and worried on the inside. Even though she isn't anywhere near where Cairo lives, she could feel Karasuba's energy increase. She knew somebody winged the murderous woman and that means she's in this crazy plan. Not something that she was thrilled but what's done is done. She prayed to whatever deity out there to safeguard the poor ashikabi from her violent and homicidal nature.

But can you really blame her for how she views the Black Sekirei? After all, she's the one who followed the mad man's orders and murdered her husband. Not only that but she also took in a sick pleasure of doing so.

"So it seems Karasuba has been winged. Looks like I'll be expecting her to pop up here anytime in the near future. If she ever misplaced a single strand of hair on my tenants, I'll make sure that she won't be standing."

Sighing, she took a sip of her tea and decided to enjoy the quite and peaceful state of nature. As she was doing that, Kusano, or Kuu-chan as Minato would call her, came over to her position and sat next to her.

"Ah Kuu-chan. Where is your onii-chan at?" Miya asked softly to the child sekirei.

"Nii-chan said he is studying for his tests and wouldn't come out to play with Kuu-chan~." Kusano started tearing up when she said that. Miya, being the motherly person she is, picked her up and placed the child on her lap. The purple haired landowner softly told her,

"Kuu-chan. Your onii-chan needs to study so that he can get a good job and support not only you but also the other sekirei he holds dear. Once he's done with studying, then you can play with him. Sounds good to you?" the child sekirei beamed happily and nodded.

"Alright then. How about you enjoy the scenery with me Kuu-chan while your onii-chan studies?"

Kusano nodded and stayed on Miya's lap. As the two enjoyed the serene and peaceful quietness, a loud bang of the door opening echoed down the main hallway.

"Yay I win!~ Now I get to sit next to Minato-sama's lap!" cheered a person. This cheery and bubbly person was no other than Musubi, Sekirei 88.

"GRRRR! I was this close to winning so that I can sit next to thy husband on the table. Plus it's supposed to be a wife's duty to sit next to her beloved during thy meal!" yelled an angry Tsukuimi.

"But I won didn't I?"

"ARRGH! That's it! No more of this whoever gets to the house faster wins garbage! We'll have to settle this trial by combat!" Just as the water sekirei was about to lob her water powers onto her, Miya lightly tapped her on the head with a wooden spoon. Even though it was a light tap, a bump formed on her head.

"Ara ara Tsukuimi-san. What did I say about no violence around the Inn?" Miya said in sweet yet deadly tone of voice. Behind the purple haired woman was a scary purple Hanya mask staring evilly down at the busty blonde woman. Withering at the intense demonic aura, she complied to her request. However, it still didn't deter her from glaring evilly at the miko wearing sekirei.

"I hope that you didn't meet any trouble during your grocery shopping." Miya said to the two as she picked up the groceries from their hands.

"Not at all Miya-dono. By the way, where is my husband?" asked Tsukuimi.

"He's in his room studying for his retake entrance exam. I wouldn't bother him if I were you as this is important to him and can't fail this one."

"Hai. Do you need any assistance Miya-dono?"

"Not right now but thank you. I'll call you when I need your help." Tsukuimi nodded. Before leaving, she told her that she'll be taking a bath. Miya nodded and went to the kitchen, getting ready to prepare dinner for the occupants in the Inn. And where did our little green girl go throughout this...interesting even for a lack of a better word? Well she went up to her onii-chan's room and sat on his lap while he was studying. Even though she liked Miya's lap, she didn't want to be away from her onii-chan for that long.

While that was going on, a certain sekirei wearing glasses, was monitoring her computers to witness what was going on. She knew the sekirei her ashikabi has winged and she too wanted to join his harem. Giggling perversely, the sekirei starting thinking of a plan to get her ashikabi's attention and hopefully get the kiss she wanted. Not only was it to make her wings emerge but she was also having some feelings towards the young lad during his stay in Maison Izumo. After all, her ashikabi needs somebody that can work behind the scenes and tell him about incoming dangers and obstacles that may be in his and his sekirei's way.

"Fufufu yust you wait Mina-tan. Just you wait!"

Back in MBI Towers...

"Minaka, are you sure this is alright with you? I mean with her in the game and all?" asked Takami.

"Why yes Takami-kun! Even though I don't want her to be involved, I think with her in the picture, it would make the game more interesting. Provides me with some excitement and intense battles. After all, it'd be only a matter of time before Karasuba-chan meets her and those two would fight it out. But I digress. Who's the lucky ashikabi that winged her?" said Minaka.

"Cairo Gonzales." replied Takami.

"Really? The one who was able to wing ." Takami just rolled her eyes at the obvious answer.

"Yeah he is. Anyways-"

Just as Takami was about to finish her sentence, she was interrupted by the noise of the door opening. The two looked at the guest and you guessed it. It was Karasuba.

"Why hello Karasuba! Nice seeing you here. So how did your chat with your new ashikabi go?" greeted Minaka.

"Oh just fine. He was a bit nervous and shocked but other than that, he was pretty accepting. Anyways, I'm going to tell you that I'm not gonna be staying here as I'd be moving to my new place. Oh and good luck trying to find a new leader for those two. It'd be a problem if they don't have any leadership figure telling them what to do. See ya later."

She then left the office and went to her quarters. When she was out of earshot, Minaka turned back his attention to Takami.

"So what were you about to say Takami-kun?"

"I was just about to address that problem to you. After all, without the leader of the Third Generation Disciplinary Squad, who's gonna lead them?" said Takami.

"I don't think those two would have any problems. It may be a hassle at first but they'll eventually get the hang of it and resume to do their duties. They may be triple digits, but I don't doubt their ability to get the job done."

"Alright then. It's your call Minaka but if shit hits the fan, don't come crying to me." Minaka just grinned at her.

"You're so nice Takami-kun~. I love you~."

She just rolled her eyes and left his office to attend to whatever other business needs to be done. Meanwhile, Karasuba was in her room and packed her things up. And true to her words, she didn't have a ton of things which of course makes her job a lot easier. After she was done packing her stuff, she left her quarters and left MBI Towers. Giving one last look, she jumped to a building rooftop and made her way to her ashikabi's house where she'll spending the rest of her life there with her destined one.

Hope you guys enjoy this one and I'll see you guys later.
