Commander Kagusi had assembled all of the Hunters inside of the Operations Room. A smiling Ashley held my hand on my left. Sylandria's warm body stood to my right. Whispers surrounded me as Kagusi stepped up to the raised platform in front of us. "Hunters," she started, "I have gathered you here in order to combat a returning threat. The Raiders." Dammit. Raiders. Raiders are come in many forms: turned Hunters, those desperate for survival, or those with ill intent. "This has only become a major problem recently, as the Raiders are starting to target supplies of food and water. As the MDF, we not only protect civillians against monsters, we protect them against any threat. Now. Allow me to introduce a new system of combat." She took out a notecard from her breast pocket. "Izunako Raekaga. Elizabeth Haigazu." I dropped Ashley's hand and started to walk up to Kagusi as the girl tried to follow me. The Frost Slime stood by my side wearing a strange object on her arm. "Allow me to introduce Izunako. Hunter, Half-Dragon, 17 years old, he has the guts to take on the Fallen. His weapon of choice is a broadsword paired with a shield. We shall see a demonstration of his fighting style." Kagusi opened a door in the wall that I walked through. The first impression I saw was white. Everywhere. I drew my broadsword but kept the shield on my back. A voice rebounded throughout the empty room. "Begin, Izunako." A door opened in the room, and a Raider walked out of the black space. He held two daggers. He took one quick look at me and charged. I quickly drew the shield from my back and charged back, bringing my sword down in a wide arc on his head. He raised the two daggers to meet it as I swung my shield into his side, knocking him over. He rolled and got to his feet, staggering. I drove my shield into his gut this time, opening a gash across his abdomen. He reeled back as I moved forward, taking light slashes at his body, opening more wounds. He tripped, and I cut the side of his neck open, leaving him to die of blood loss and choking. I walk back into the Operations Room where a grey Ashley fell onto my chest, clutching me.
"M-Master…" She passed out, so I just picked her up in my arms as everyone in the room stared. I walked over and sat down next to Elizabeth, remembering something. Commander Dragoon said Elizabeth Haigazu. So that means Elizabeth is Sylandria's sister?! Commander Kagusi spoke again.
"Elizabeth. Researcher, Ice Slime, 17 years old, she prefers incapacitating her enemies over killing them. Her 'weapon' of choice is her well-placed ice shards that paralyze her enemy. Elizabeth, demonstrate."
Elizabeth walked into the previously bloodstained room and stood still. The familiar door opened and… I froze. It was an Inferno Elemental. Elementals are hulking beasts of the Earth, representing its weakest natural force. But they were still very powerful. Elizabeth would be no match against one, and she's up against an Inferno… She stared it down and hit it in the leg with an ice shard to aggravate it. I set Ashley down and stood, watching intently. The Elemental struck, driving its fist towards Elizabeth as she dodged, ramming a shard through the elbow and shoulder joints of the right arm, immobilizing them. The Elemental tried to punch her with the other arm, and in the process of pulling its fist back, the girl drove a pillar through its forearm and shoulder, immobilizing that as well. She collapsed onto her back when she was done after looking at Kagusi and recieveing a nod. I watched the Elemental closely, and saw that the muscles of the left arm were tight, and that the pillar was melting and about to snap. I jumped up and dashed into the room with my sword drawn as the pillar snapped, allowing the Inferno's fist to travel at full force.

Shards were everywhere as Izunako's sword shattered on contact with the Elemental's body. The monster reeled back and Izunako fell to his knees as he stared at the broken sword. "Blue… Steel…" He turned to the Elemental that roared in our faces. A flowing blackish substance surrounded his arms, legs, wings, and tail. He stood, the substance pulsing. "YOU WILL PAY FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE." His voice was monotonous and layered. He walked up to the Elemental and punched it straight in the face. Words failed me as I saw Izunako beat the thing senseless. I always knew Izunako was unusually strong, but this is completely different. His power was relentless, immense, destructive. Energy leaked from the wounds of the Elemental as Izunako dealt the final blow; a hammer fist to the back of the neck. The body imploded, forming a small flame that floated before Izunako. The flame died and Izunako fell back into Sylandria's arms. I blinked as I stared at the girl. She hugged him. I looked over to the Commander, who motioned for us to exit the room. Izunako dropped out of Sylandria's arms as we exited, leaning on her body instead. Kagusi stayed silent for a moment, collecting herself before continuing.
"...You have seen a demonstration of Izunako and Elizabeth's abilities. You are dismissed." Everybody started walking out, except for Izunako and Sylandria. They stood there, Sylandria with an arm around an exhausted Izunako. Ashley slept by their legs. I walked out a few minutes later.

...The Shadow was getting stronger every time it awakened. Sylandria sat next to me on my bed as I laid there. "...Hey Izunako…" She had put on a long t-shirt over her panties… and that was it. I wore shorts with a tank top that Sylandria had put on me.
"Hey, Silk."
"...Why do you call call that?" I had never really explained to her why.
"...Your skin feels silky to me. It's smooth, milky, warm…"
Sylandria looked at me with a confused look for a second before blushing and turning away from me. "Y-you think so?"
I pull her down onto me. "I know." Ashley cleared her throat and I looked over at her. There was an expectant look on her face. "Fine, you can cuddle too." She launched herself onto my body, squeezing me hard. "H-hey! Not so hard…" Celestia walked over and eyed Ashley cautiously.
"Is Miss Ashley hurting you, Master?" Her eyes still had no emotion.
"N-no! Her love is just… kind of harsh."
The android girl nodded. "I understand." I leaned my head back and closed my eyes for a moment before Celestia spoke again. "Master. Your mental state is of love and enjoyment. Because of this, I am obligated to increase these feelings."
"Celestia, you don't have-" I held my breath as I felt Celestia climb on top of my body and lay on me, her supple breasts squishing against my stomach. My face burned at at realization that I was at the mercy of the three girls holding me down with their warm, soft bodies… Hot damn it felt good.
