U.S.S. Dominatus
While Commodore Nico was off the ship, Akagi had taken her chance to help out the crew with various jobs. Her immense strength was a big help with that, carrying various objects that normally required a forklift around, easily fitting fighter planes with their missiles and even shoving a pile of debris off the flight deck and into the sea.
Her playful demeanour, fluffy tails and attractive body quickly gained her a small, but growing fanbase among the crew, many of which couldn't help but touch her tails as they passed her in the corridors, making her giggle each time. While the fox woman could tell the crew were still somewhat afraid of her, the fear was slowly waning as she carefully built up a positive rapport.
Some of the crew had told Akagi about their troubles with Nico's men, how they never got along with 'those stuck up nerds from the lab' as one particularity buff crewman had put it. She'd managed to break up a few fights aboard between the crew and Nico's goons by simply scaring the latter group away, that had gotten her a lot of brownie points, but many on board were still skeptical about her.
Captain Jackson was pleased to hear about all of this happening, he thought it was about time someone dealt with those guys from the Water Pounder lab. After being told Captain Varennes wanted to report to him directly, he cleared the fellow officer permission to come aboard and after meeting each other again, Jackson clasped his hand in an informal way.
"Damn good to see you old friend, I thought you were dead!" Jackson declared. Varennes chuckled with his fellow captain's reaction and shook his hand.
"I thought we were after a while, someone up there must like me for those kansen to find us." He replied with a smile. Jackson smiled and gestured to look out the window. Varennes followed his gaze and saw Akagi pulling a broken down F-16 fighter off the runway with ease, she wasn't even grimacing. "Jesus, I can never get over how strong they are." Varennes stated in amazement, he watched the fox woman place the plane down and the pilot inside gave her a thumbs up before climbing out.
"Yeah, ever since Nico brought her on board she's been a massive help, probably the only good thing he's done so far." Jackson joked.
"Where is the Commodore anyway?" Varennes asked as he looked around the bridge. Nobody else was around besides the Flight Control officer and Helmsman.
"In a meeting with the Azur Lane Commander, man that guy is awesome." Jackson replied with a chuckle. "You should have seen it when we first docked, the Commodore tried to talk shit to one of the kansen and suddenly BOOM!" Jackson then smacked his fist into his open palm, making a smacking noise. "Instant nose bleed, I'm talking INSTANT nose bleed." He added while laughing.
"Damn, about time someone showed Nico a thing or two, I'm just sorry it wasn't me." Varennes replied slightly irritated. "I talked to the Commander you know, he's actually a really nice guy, really down to earth for someone his rank." He added.
"I can see why the ship girls like him, that and his big brass balls." Jackson agreed, making both of them laugh.
"Sir!" The FC officer called to them both. Jackson turned to face him still chuckling, but seeing the FC officer's panicked face quickly changed his mood. "We have a bird in trouble, Falcon 4 reported a jammed throttle and rudder!" He yelled. "He said his cockpit was filling with smoke before I lost contact, I think he's blacked out."
"Damn it, ready a rescue and salvage team, lets hope he makes it." Jackson then pressed a button and a klaxon sounded across the carrier's flight deck as Jackson's voice blared over an intercom.
"Attention! We have a plane in trouble, clear the runway!"
Akagi was talking with the pilot she helped when she heard what happened, looking up to the sky she focused her kansen senses and could see the plane in danger; an F16 trailing smoke. She looked back at the pilot she was talking with.
"Give me your headset. I'm going up there!" She declared. Without hesitation, the pilot took off his headset and threw it to her.
"All yours, good luck fox!" Akagi nodded to him before running into the runway for room, throwing a paper plane into the air, it quickly transformed into one of her Zeros and did a loop for Akagi to jump on top of it. She then rocketed into the sky much faster than any normal Zero ever could, surprising Jackson and Varennes on the carrier's bridge, the two Captain's slack jawed at Akagi's display.
The Fox woman held onto her Zero's canopy as she zoomed to the doomed jet above her, she wasn't accustomed to riding her planes like Kaga and Enterprise, but she was fairly confident in a non-combat situation such as now.
"Captain Jackson, can you hear me?" Akagi yelled over the noise of her Zero into her headset.
"Akagi? What are you doing!? that jet could explode any second!" Jackson told her frantically.
"Get a medical team ready, I'm not leaving this man in the sky to fend for himself!" She argued back, her Zero managed to make it to the damaged jet's altitude, the smoke from its engine billowing out behind it, she strained as she willed her Zero to speed up, trying to stay with the jet. Both planes were dipping towards the ground as she tried to keep up.
"Falcon 4...Falcon 4 respond!" Akagi could hear Jackson yelling over the radio. "Still no answer, he must be in bad shape Akagi, be careful." He then ordered her. Akagi stepped onto the wing of her Zero, she summoned another plane, this one a Kate, underneath the jet plane and willed it to gently touch the F16, keeping it level. She then took a deep breath and jumped for it.
Akagi landed on the F-16's left wing, laying on her belly. Unfortunately this made the whole plane roll towards her. She screamed as started falling off, out of instinct she slammed her hand into the fuselage, bending the metal. Her Zero joined the Kate in steadying the F-16 before it rolled over completely, propping up the left wing. Regaining her grip she crawled towards the fighter's cockpit, warping the metal with her hands as she moved.
"I...I'm on the plane...whoa this feels weird... when I'm not the one controlling it." She struggled to say with the air roaring past her face.
"Wow fox, you're crazy you know that?" Jackson commented. "Our fly boy in there is gonna owe you big time if you can get him out of this." He added. Akagi managed a small giggle as she kept crawling along the jet, the rushing winds threatening to rip her off at any second were it not for her incredible strength. She looked briefly back at the engine and her eyes widened as she saw a fire completely enveloping the jet's tail, the rudder and tail fins swallowed up completely by the thick smoke cloud.
Akagi made it to the cockpit, but with no way to stand due to the speed she ordered her Kate to push the F16's nose up, the manoeuvre worked, with gravity now on her side, the jet was going slow enough for her to stand up on it's body, with some effort, Akagi then kneeled down and looked into the cockpit.
"He's out cold, I'll need to smash the canopy." Akagi told Jackson. "Granted, the plane's a write off anyway just get my man out of there." The Captain replied. Akagi then punched the canopy, shattering it easily, some smoke blew away with the glass as it broke. With access to the cockpit she wrapped her tails around the unconscious pilot while she unbuckled him with her hands. She could tell he was still alive thankfully by his breath against her arm as she fiddled with his harness.
Holding onto to him tightly she then jumped off the plane and landed on the Zero. Her Kate also pulled away from the jet, seconds later the whole plane exploded, along with its full payload of missiles. Quickly placing the pilot inside her Zero's cockpit, Akagi evaded the flaming chunks of metal from the F16, a few of them she threw her own fire balls at, blowing them away from her plane.
"Akagi we just saw a massive explosion down here! Are you OK Akagi? Akagi?!" Jackson called over the radio.
"I'm fine Captain. And so is your pilot, he's alive." Akagi proudly declared. Immediately after she said that a loud chorus of cheering, clapping and whooping blared from the headset, clearly it wasn't just Jackson listening in on her rescue mission.
"Damn good to hear fox! You're cleared to land!" Jackson cheered, elated his pilot was still alive after that ordeal. Akagi smiled to herself as she rode her Zero back down to the Dominatus, confident that with this stunt, she had fully converted the crew of the carrier and possibly the whole fleet into kansen fans.
"Commodore Nico is not going to like this, too bad~" Akagi thought to herself with a smirk.
Sakura Dormitories, evening.
After explaining what happened in the Commander's office to Musashi via her paper plane, Kaga was leading the Commander to the Yamato sisters' room. The young officer was still shaking and tense from roaring at Nico, it had clearly taken a toll on him, he kept flinching at everything around him and was still breathing hard as he stared at the floor. He wondered why Musashi had invited the two of them to her room instead of the bathhouse, it couldn't have been busy at this time.
He blushed as he shamefully thought about what that invitation normally meant, The Commander wasn't naïve enough to think he was immune to intrusive perverted thoughts about the kansen from time to time. It didn't help that most of the time, many of them were actively out to seduce him, on some occasions they almost succeeded, his willpower barely winning out over his sex drive, but his body was quick to make him feel like he missed out on something.
Ultimately it meant the Commander had a lot of unresolved feelings bottled up within him, with all the constant stress over the last few days, he had neglected to properly tend to himself in the...physical sense, the latest meeting with Nico really blew a fuse in his ability to regulate his emotions, since he still felt tense and angry long after the Commodore ran off. While he hoped Musashi and Shinano wanted to see him for platonic reasons, with what Kaga had told him about Akagi agreeing to 'share' him with her and the Yamato sisters, it was less than certain that was true. He wasn't completely against the idea, after all he was a hot-blooded, straight young man surrounded by gorgeous women 24/7, he was just very shy in that area.
As Kaga led him to the Yamato sisters' room on the top floor, the Commander still had the thousand yard stare on his face, Kaga could tell the man wasn't used to getting THAT angry at someone, Akagi had told Kaga about him punching the Commodore at their first meeting, but there he had physically vented his frustration out, this time he had been much more furious and not allowed himself to do the same. Kaga knew this would require something...stronger, but was too shy to do it herself.
She knocked on the door and after a few minutes Musashi opened it, wearing a long, semi-transparent light purple night gown, it was open, so underneath, the pair could see she only had on a dark purple bra and panties. Musashi smiled warmly upon seeing the pair, her large tails swaying behind her slowly. The Commander barely reacted, slowly holding his hand up to awkwardly wave as he stared at the floor. The super-battleship chuckled sympathetically, seeing the Commander in this state.
"I'm glad Kaga brought you here Commander, it will allow us to soothe you more efficiently than at the springs, come...you can rest easy now." Musashi commanded, her calming, but powerful tone allowing her warm, intoxicating aura to permeate through the Commander's very being, making him involuntarily relax some what. She gently took his hand and led him inside her room with Kaga following.
The Commander looked around, seeing a few lit candles, a red floor mat, some zubutons and a very comfortable looking queen sized bed in the centre of the room. The candles appear to be scented with lavender, as the strong, but not over-powering aroma hung over Musashi's guests, making the Commander and Kaga slightly tipsy. As he felt his mind and body slowly de-compress, the Commander realised something.
"Um...Musashi...where is Shinano?" He quietly asked. Musashi led him and Kaga to kneel on the zubutons facing each other.
"My sister is finishing a shower, she will join us shortly; Do either of you want tea?" Musashi offered as she headed for the kitchen. The Commander nodded at her, his expression barely changing. Kaga also nodded, feeling a little awkward being in Musashi's presence without her sister with her, normally it would be Akagi and Musashi talking while Kaga only spoke when either of them asked her something. She felt out of place without Akagi to guide her.
They heard a slow sigh and then a yawn as Shinano emerged from the en-suite bathroom, she was drying her hair and fox ears with a towel, using her surprisingly dry tails to cover her exposed chest and pelvis, it seemed that it was purely kansen powers that kept her and other kitsune tails so fluffy, despite being covered by water.
Shinano opened an eye, seeing the Commander and Kaga she smiled, not caring she was naked as she walked over to the bed.
"Mmm...Good evening you two...it seems you had a bad day Commander...I hope this one can assist you~" She greeted, her dreamy voice slightly resonating the air and tugging the Commander's heart strings. He blushed, feeling his chest pound and his muscles loosen up just from her voice. He swore that Shinano could talk about literally anything and it would be soothing to listen to. She was basically a walking ASMR dispenser.
Even Kaga was somewhat entranced by her fellow kitsune's tone and vocalisms, while she was somewhat used to Akagi's playful and teasing mannerisms, Shinano was on another level when it came to mesmerising those around her. Like the Commander, she also found herself blushing, not sure how to feel about this.
Shinano put on another night gown like her sister, also semi-transparent, however she had neglected to put on any underwear, so she was effectively still naked despite it technically covering her. The Commander felt torn on how to feel about that; His higher reasoning and socially conditioned behaviour told him to look away, on the other hand his neglected body and instincts were screaming at him to jump her, that conflict within him only heightened his heart rate even further, making him pant a little.
Musashi came back with a tray of mugs full of tea and placed it in the middle of her guests. She took one and kneeled on a floor cushion next to Kaga before taking a sip. Shinano sat next to the Commander on her own cushion, giving him a tired smile before taking her own mug of tea. The purple kitsune placed her cup down and looked over at the Commander with a frown.
"This unpleasant business with that infernal Commodore...its clearly taking a toll on you Commander, I told you not to leave your own needs unattended my child, you're only human." The elder kitsune told him, a hint of disapproval in her tone. The Commander looked away ashamed, unable to meet the super-battleship's gaze.
"I-I'm so sorry Musashi, I...I spend so much time and energy watching and caring for the others, I don't... have any left for myself." He replied haltingly, but honestly. Musashi's frown melted away into a more sympathetic look, one of her huge tails draped itself around the officer's neck like a scarf, the Commander moaned a little at its fluffiness and ran his hand across the tail's core.
"Commander, you can't be strong and unwavering forever, sooner or later your body and mind will break if left without respite, that includes sating your carnal desires." Musashi explained bluntly, before taking another sip of tea. Both the Commander and Kaga went wide eyed in shock at the battleship's last statement.
"Y-you mean...s-se-" The Commander started to say before stopping himself, too embarrassed to finish.
"Of course, I don't understand why you're so hesitant, your body clearly wants it Commander, why fight a natural desire when willing partners are around you?" Musashi asked, tilting her head in confusion. The Commander grunted a little, annoyed with Musashi's question.
"I...its not that simple; You're people to be respected and I want to respect you." The Commander pointed out. "That means I don't jump into bed with any of you at the first sign of a willing partner, I...I need more than that before-."
The Commander was interrupted by his own yelp, feeling something soft press into his back and strong but gentle arms wrap around his chest. He looked down to see white, blue tinged tails softly wrap around his legs and midsection, keeping him from escaping. He gave a small gasp feeling Shinano's head lightly rest against his own, he could also feel her vibrating slightly as she started purring.
"Mmh...Commander...please calm down, my sister is trying to help you understand, no one will look down on you for simply being honest with your body, please don't be afraid if you're led to intimacy, we all want you happy...Mmm."
Shinano held the Commander close to herself as she explained, with only his own clothing separating his body from the super-carrier's busty chest, the young man was blushing deeply. Then he yelped feeling her tails enter his uniform and caress his skin unobstructed, shedding his clothing off at the same time, yep they were unbelievably fluffy and sapped any will he had to resist her. He was about to protest when Shinano gently pressed her lips to his own, gently but firmly pressing him onto the soft floor as they kissed. His willpower finally eroding as he hugged and kissed her back. She pulled back briefly while taking his jacket off.
"You've more than earned this, please allow yourself to enjoy it...mmm." Shinano told him with a smile. The Commander smiled up nervously, a huge blush on his face. The tall kitsune then straddled his lap. "Mmm...it seems you DO want this Commander~" Shinano teased, an uncharacteristically sensual smirk on her face as her hand explored the Commander's...guy area, forcing a moan from the man.
Musashi looked on with a small chuckle while Kaga just blankly stared, unsure what to do or how to react. "Kaga my dear, do you wish to stay tonight? It must be lonely in your room without your sister." Musashi asked the younger fox woman. Kaga blushed at the thought, not sure how to feel about that.
"Its hasn't even been one day, and I...no its fine...I'll be-" Kaga was interrupted by Musashi suddenly pulling her into a hug, the smaller kitsune surprised by the intimate act as her head was sandwiched in the super-battleship's busty cleavage. She tried to struggle free but Musashi easily held her close to her.
"Weren't you listening when my sister was talking about being honest with yourself? Come on my child, speak the truth." The purple fox woman commanded her kindly. Kaga stopped resisting and started sobbing quietly, Musashi gently shushed her, stroking Kaga's ears softly as she watched her have a moment of catharsis.
"Sister...I need you..." Kaga choked out softly, a tear ran down her cheek as she returned the hug, earning a smile from the older fox girl. Musashi helped Kaga to her feet as she wiped her tears away.
"See? doesn't that feel much better? Don't be afraid of revealing your true feelings." Musashi chuckled a little as Kaga blushed. Musashi smiled and led Kaga out the bedroom before putting up a floral room divider between the bed and the sitting area. It was, fortunately for both parties: very soundproof.
As those two went to talk out Kaga's emotions, Shinano was working on resolving the Commander's own pent up feelings on the bed. She had gotten him down to just his underwear while she still had the night gown on. The kitsune was laying on top of him, gently rubbing herself along his body, one arm gently running along his clothed crotch and she was gently kissing his neck, softly moaning. Her fluffy tails were swaying all across his body and slowly wrapping around his limbs and midsection, more comfortable than any blanket ever could be.
The Commander himself had completely surrendered any notion of resistance, between Shinano's hypnotically beautiful voice, the body of a goddess, fluffy tails and her willingness to unshackle his desires for a night, he just couldn't deny himself any longer, not even upsetting Akagi was a factor since she agreed to 'share' him with Shinano and Musashi; so he just had no excuse to say no any more.
"S-Shinano...t-thank you...I had...no idea how much...I need this...Mmm..." The Commander moaned out, the fox woman moaned with him as she pulled herself up briefly.
"Mmm...this one is happy for you Commander, please don't be... afraid of this." She panted out, clearly getting excited herself. "Are...you ready?" Shinano asked him reassuringly. The Commander took a deep breath and nodded, he then braced himself as Shinano removed his underwear, she widened her eyes briefly at what she saw, before an impressed smile adorned her face and she straddled him.
