A/N: Oite is a terribly underrated character, I feel. Perhaps the woes of being a monthly calendar ship, but she's cute, has a neat design and a big sword. What's not to love~?

That aside, do enjoy this chapter~

Chapter 3: Oite, Libeccio, Maestrale

Oite found this whole 'fog' situation to be rather annoying to deal with.

For one it limited her line-of-sight, one of her more preferred senses. For another it made orienting herself in comparison to the main bulk of the fleet much harder, as even just turning in a circle could get her hopelessly lost – details blurring together in the omnipresent mist until she just had to guess. Thankfully she wasn't alone and had two others to help guide her; Libeccio and Maestrale.

Both Destroyers from the Sardegna Empire, whilst she was from the Sakura Empire. Frankly she wasn't overly keen on the two as the blue one seemed too laid-back about everything whilst the red one seemed awfully frightful, but she was used to dealing with such characters and thus took upon the mantle of leader, something that the two thankfully went along with without so much as a single protest. Maybe they were used to deferring to others, or maybe she just projected the aura of someone in command. She hoped it was the latter.

'Hopefully they can fight well. I don't want to have to watch my back and theirs.' Oite thought to herself with a huff, scanning the bushes around them with a keen eye.

Nothing stirred so she moved on, venturing out in a rough diagonal path to the main fleet, allowing them to sweep ahead whilst other small groups did the same further ahead. Not too long ago she'd heard some wolves howling in the distance along with some shellfire so assumed that the fleet had encountered some wolves, which was something of a comfort. She never liked wolves; she much rather preferred opponents she could duel with.

''Hey!'' Libeccio's sudden shout startled Oite out of her thoughts. ''How much further we gonna go?''

Oite frowned at the shorter Destroyer. ''As far as we need to. We'll be notified if the others find the staff quarters before us.''

''Y-Yes, she's right.'' Maestrale agreed on her right, voice a bit shaky but trying to sound firm. ''I'm sure we can handle any riff-raff that comes our way, right?''

Oite hummed as the shorter girl looked up at her. ''Of course. Just make sure to handle yourselves.''

Without letting either Destroyer answer she strode ahead slightly, leaving them to follow behind her in a triangle formation. That would suite her best; her sword was large but her frame was not, so she needed a lot of space to unsheathe her odachi and wield it. She put a lot of focus into melee combat, in part due to the fact her guns were shamefully weak in comparison to most of her peers, with only two 120mm guns available. Certainly not nothing, especially to regular humans and animals, but against Sirens that could reliably tank bigger, more accurate Destroyer guns like those the Fletcher girls used? It was an undeniable weakness, and one she made up for with her swordsmanship.

Busy rolling her thoughts around in her mind she almost didn't notice a hint of white amidst the greenery, only barely catching it in her peripherals – prompting Oite to stop, raising a hand. The other two Destroyers with her stopped immediately and raised their riggings in preparation for an attack, silence reigning over them for a long, weighty moment... before with a low hum Oite approached the speck of white she saw. It took a moment to relocate it when she walked around a tree, but it stood out easily, revealing itself to her.

It was a shirt. The material was cotton she surmised and had clearly torn, some strands frayed near what was once a sleeve and part of the bottom missing too, like it had been ripped off. The thought made her eyes narrow and she looked down at her feet, managing to make out crushed leaves and plants that led further into the shrubbery, prompting her to slowly walk in that direction.

''Hm? What'cha find?'' Libeccio earnestly questioned.

''Hush! Miss Oite is probably thinking!'' Maestrale hushed her sister-ship.

Oite, however, had no problems talking and tracking at the same time. ''Ruined shirt, probably from one of the island's residents. If we follow it we might find out what happened to them.''

Libeccio let out an understanding hum and mercifully fell quiet, though Oite almost wished she didn't – without her bubbly chatter the only local noise was that of their footsteps and of the bushes hissing against their clothes and rigging. Oite mindfully kept her bare skin away as much as possible, on the off-hand chance any were poisonous, but her top exposed some midriff that wasn't able to be covered. Thankfully, nothing stung her.

And soon the trail she followed led out into a wider clearing, the ground descending into a sort of natural basin. The crushed plants and faint footprints disappeared near the centre and as she scanned her surroundings she noticed that something wasn't quite right. It wasn't anything nameable, but as she walked out into the open and looked at the surrounding bushes and trees, she felt like she was being watched. Nothing was there, nothing moved, but something just tickled her nerves in a way that made her grip her sword tight.

''We're not alone.'' She announced, drawing her sword slowly.

Behind her Libeccio and Maestrale tensed up, the latter mumbling fretfully to herself as she spun and watched their backs. Oite however took a slow few steps away from her two companions, her sword-arm just itching to draw her blade but she held back for a second more, feeling something amiss – when she felt the air above her displace.

Muscle memory took hold and Oite swung up, drawing her odachi out in a single swift slash – and cutting in half the Gremlin that tried to drop on her from above. Its blood splattered over her but she side-stepped the worst of it, alarmed eyes focusing in on the bisected creature before it died with a rasping gurgle. As if that was the trigger a chorus of wailing howls came from the surrounding trees; a raspy, hoarse sound that seemed to echo off of the basin walls around them, forming a confusing mass of sound. An ambush.

''Prepare yourself!'' Oite commanded, flicking the blood off of her blade.

Not a second later Gremlins burst out of the trees and the bushes, around the same size as the three but coming equipped with small wings and talon-like fingers. They soared out in droves, chittering and squealing in high-pitched voices as they flew at them or landed on all fours and charged – immediately met with a salvo from the three Destroyers. Half of the shells were dodged whilst half either met their mark or exploded across the dirt in front of the incoming Gremlins, blowing their target to smithereens.

But what the Gremlins lacked in endurance they more than made up for in numbers; something that Oite found out as she found herself besieged by multiple Gremlins at once. With a harsh scowl the Destroyer lunged at them, feinting right before bringing her blade around in a sudden left slash, cutting one Gremlins diagonally and practically bisecting it, leaving it to crumple on the ground and stain the grass red with blood. One of its peers tried to grab her from her left but a sharp jab of her hilt stunned it long enough for her to blast it in the face with her left cannon, but before she could deal with the one on the right another Gremlin burst through the smoke at her, claws going for her face.

Back-stepping she dodged, bringing her rigging around at the same time and bashing the Gremlin on her right with it – but then a third Gremlin came down from above, cackling as it landed on her back and ripped her cloak off, sending her stumbling back with the motion. The Gremlin on her right chose then to intervene, leaping onto her right cannon and wrenching it free from its place, sending the now-useless turret tumbling away from her.

''D-Damn you!'' Oite barked, hitting it with her hilt and about to slash it – but the Gremlin on her left leapt up, grabbing her arm and pulling it down sooner than she anticipated, making her miss.

The Gremlin's beady red eyes gleefully glared into her own, and with a growl Oite jerked her head forth – headbutting the beast. It clearly hadn't expected that and fell off with a strangled sort of sound, prompting her to stomp on its head, but whether it dealt any damage or not she never found out as yet another Gremlin dive-bombed her, sending her falling onto her back with a yelp.

Immediately three Gremlins were on her, one fighting with her sword whilst another eagerly ripped her shorts down her legs. Her cheeks burned red and she grabbed onto them to stop them coming down but the third Gremlin was also working on her top, hissing happily as it ripped the fabric apart and exposed her sarashi-wrapped bust to the cold air; her breasts small but slightly pronounced. The bandages lasted all of a second before the Gremlin's claw-like fingers raked along her collarbone, drawing blood as it ripped her sarashi off and eagerly grabbed her right tit.

''W-What are you-?!'' So caught off-guard by the monster's groping she was unprepared for the other Gremlin to yank her sword out of her hand, her rigging ripped apart by a fourth Gremlin nary a second later. ''C-Cease!''

Her shorts, which were held up solely by her right hand, finally gave way between the tugging forces and ripped, allowing the Gremlin to gleefully tear them off – revealing the plain white panties she wore underneath. Fingers dug under the waistband and Oite gasped as the waistband dug into her hips, the sensation lasting all of a second before the creature disrobed her there too, leaving her nearly naked between the multiple monsters.

A fact that did not go unexploited; an eager grin stretching across the lips of one Gremlin as it got between her legs. Only then did Oite become consciously aware of its dick; a thickish, Aegean-skinned girth that slapped up against her bare pussy lips, sending a shiver through her as she realised acutely what they intended to do with her. The thought only renewed her struggles, her shouts of defiance becoming more desperate as her struggles failed to free her. Nor did it stop the Gremlin from rubbing the bulbous tip of its cock along her slit, teasing her delicate, virgin pussy-

-before mercilessly shoving itself inside of her.

Oite's scream pierced the air, guttural and twisting into a wheezing gasp as the pain hit, her first time roughly stolen by the creature as it shoved its cock deeper inside of her womanhood. Her smooth petals parted around the creature's shaft as it shoved itself deep inside of her, pulling only partway out before it inevitably buried itself in even deeper, forcing itself between her tight inner walls despite her gasps of protest, her expression one of pain.

The other Gremlins were not idle either. Even as their comrade gleefully started to fuck her pussy raw, its hips jerking forth and stuffing itself inside her, another groped at her small, near-flat breasts, either not noticing or unconcerned with the cuts and gashes it made on her small tits with its claws. A third Gremlin on the other hand got on top of her, its dick in her face before it mercilessly shoved itself into her mouth, its thumbs digging between her lips and preventing her from biting down lest she impaled herself on its sharp fingertips.

''Mmph- ghk- gh-!'' Oite's wet, muted gags rung out as the creature gleefully face-fucked her – its sizeable shaft pressing down on her tongue and forcing itself down her throat, its balls hitting her chin repeatedly.

Oite kept struggling against her assailants but her punches did little to deter the Gremlin going balls-deep in her mouth, let alone the howling Gremlin that buried its dick inside of her. Pinprick tears formed in the corners of her eyes but she refused to cry; focusing solely on trying to escape... but her efforts were fruitless, any strikes she managed brushed off and the creature gleefully stuffing her pussy to the brim regardless, her insides aflame as they were stretched.

The Gremlin's cock-head soon kissed up against her cervix, pushing against her innermost parts like it wanted to penetrate that part of her too, to fuck her baby chamber before it poured its seed inside of her. The thought made Oite shudder but no matter how much resistance she put up all of it was for naught, as she failed to dislodge the Gremlins and they continued to have their way with her, fucking her holes and groping her chest with abandon.

'No, someone, Maestrale, Libeccio...!'

Oite's budding hope was dashed as soon as it occurred as she peeked out of the corner of her eye, spotting her two comrades in similar situations as her. She got to think of them no further however as a stab of pain jolted up her groin, and with a pained moan Oite screwed her eyes shut, her insides aching as she felt the Gremlin's cock twitch and throb against them. Its claw-like fingers dug into her thighs and stopped them from kicking, its howls piercing the air as it fucked her for its own pleasure, her insides tightening around its length as she tensed-

-and a muffled cry escaped Oite as it suddenly slammed inside and came, unloading a thick gout of semen into her womb. The sudden hotness inside her womb inspired a coldness in her stomach, dread pooling within, but the Gremlin straddling her gleefully kept fucking her mouth and throat for another few seconds before it too reached climax, flooding her throat with thick spurts of semen she had no choice but to swallow, her throat bulging with every pronounced gulp until she had drunk it all.

Only then did the creature pull its cock out, allowing Oite to breathe again.

For only a few moments before another Gremlin gleefully took its place as another got between her legs, her abused pussy soon taking another cock as her defilement resumed.

X-x-X

Libeccio liked to think she was a pretty decent fighter.

Not the best, far from it, but she could hold her own and serve Sardegna loyally.

Unfortunately it turns out that when swarmed by a bunch of Gremlins her self-confidence proved unfounded, as for every Gremlin she shot down another two replaced it, overwhelming her and slashing at her as they passed. Some stopped and grabbed onto her but she managed to shoot them off before they could take her out, but her rigging quickly accumulated a lot of damage; cuts and gashes in the metal causing her right turret to eventually become inert.

Until suddenly she was tackled from behind. The blue-eyed Destroyer cried out in shock as she was forced to the ground, intimately feeling a Gremlin crawling over her back – but faster than she could react it got ahold of her rigging and ripped it off, shredding the metal with brute force and throwing the now-useless parts aside. Libeccio tried to get up but the Gremlin refused to budge, its modest weight just enough to keep her pinned.

Suddenly it shifted back – and Libeccio squeaked as a hand reached down and grabbed her butt.

''H-Hey! Where are you- eep!''

Her panties, blue as the sky, tore with frightening ease as the Gremlin ripped them off. The reason why eluded the blue-eyed Destroyer until she twisted her neck enough to catch sight of the creature's Aegean-skinned cock, erect and eager as it went under her skirt, its body pressing down on hers-

-and Libeccio let out a startled, pained cry as the tip of its cock pushed inside. The shaft inevitably followed, prying her virginal walls apart and stuffing itself deep inside of her. It was her first time and the sensation of it piercing through her hymen was acute, her cry morphing into a strangled sort of wail as it entered her so roughly, not a hint of lube present to ease the penetration and even less of a trace of mercy found within her unwanted partner as it started to thrust, pulling out only partially before it buried itself back into her pussy.

''A-Ah! Stop it, stop~!'' Libeccio cried, throwing a fist behind her but unable to really strike at it. ''M-Mn! It hurts!''

A hissing laugh, high-pitched and nearly giggling, crooned against her right ear and sent shivers through her – before the creature slammed inside her once more, fucking a cry out of Libeccio's pinkish lips. Laid prone and pinned against the grass the crispness of the ground contrasted sharply with the the heat of the Gremlin's dick; its length stuffing itself inside of her repeatedly, forcing her tender walls to part for its girth before it inevitably pulled back for another eager thrust, pummelling her cervix with its hasty thrusts.

Biting her bottom lip so hard it bled Libeccio buried her face in the grass, quiet for all but a few seconds before a cry of pain forced itself past her lips as the Gremlin sped up – its rough, uneven thrusts gaining something of a rhythm as it plundered her womanhood, its groin slapping against her ass so hard it was like a spank and sending ripples over her rear, but the discomfort paled in comparison to the flaming pain within, her pussy aching as it accepted the sizeable cock.

''Mn! Nn! A-Ah!'' Libeccio cried, clutching onto the grass for dear life. ''Make it s-stop...!''

No such mercy came however, the sound of smacking flesh ringing in Libeccio's ears almost overpoweringly so – rendering her unable to think of anything but the dick slamming up against her cervix, jamming within her no matter how tightly her insides gripped it. If anything her snugness only encouraged the beast to keep violating her, its howls of delight echoing out as it mated with her to it's hearts content, using her pussy as little more than a cock-sleeve.

She felt the creature's dick pulse inside of her, inspiring a deep, instinctual dread in her and making her struggle harder – but as if in response the Gremlin grabbed her shoulders and held her down harsher, howling as it ravaged her pussy. The angle its cock jammed in at made her spasm, a choked gasp fleeing her lips, and dimly she heard Maestrale calling her name but could barely hear it over the blood pounding in her ears, her loins afire as the Gremlin raped her.

And then with a louder, shriller howl the Gremlin sheathed itself balls-deep in Libeccio's pussy – and came at last, pouring rope after rope of cum inside her. The Destroyer wailed as she felt its hot seed splatter across her insides and pump up into her innermost parts, not an inch of its dick sliding out as it eagerly impregnated her, every throb of its girth preluding another spurt of cum that entered her womb. Eventually some of its cum started to leak out around its shaft, drooling from her fucked-raw hole.

Then at last it pulled out, granting Libeccio some momentary relief.

Until another Gremlin flipped her around, grinned, and her defilement continued – the sound of slapping flesh echoing on alongside her screams.

X-x-X

Maestrale saw her sister go down, a cry budding on her lips.

A cry that never got to leave as a squeal of surprise replaced it instead, a Gremlin flying down and landing upon her rigging. Its claw-like fingers raked through the metal and dodged her backwards swipe, inducing a state of panic in Maestrale as she turned and spun as she tried to shake the creature off – to no avail. By the time it took flight her rigging was in ruins, one turret gone and the other bent at such an angle it couldn't fire even if she willed it to.

Something that the other Gremlins took advantage of. With a gleeful howl one flew down and tackled her from behind, sending Maestrale onto her front – and when she tried to rise a second Gremlin landed in front of her. Its fingers raked down her collarbone, drawing blood and making her cry; that same cry rising into a shriek as it kept going down, ripping her dress down the front and exposing her to the creature's beady gaze, sending a shiver through her.

Then suddenly she was shoved forth from behind, bent over – and froze as she found herself at perfect eye-level with the Gremlin's dick.

''W-Wait, you're not going to... are you...?''

Her answer came in the form of a twitch, before the Gremlin grabbed her by the hair. A cry of pain escaped Maestrale but harshly cut off as the creature shoved its dick in her mouth, the thick shaft forcing her lips to part around it – and with a gleeful hiss the monster grabbed her head in both of its hands and started to buck its hips, face-fucking the helpless Maestrale. Her pinkish lips were spread around its girth as it slid back-and-forth, forcing her tongue flat against the bottom of her mouth and hitting the back of her throat, making her gag harshly.

However what captured her attention more was the hands that pinched the back of her dress and flipped it up, and then pulled her panties down, exposing her ass to the cold air. Dread settled in her stomach and Maestrale protested, crying out around the Gremlin's cock but only serving to make it stuff her gullet more, the tip going down her throat slightly and making her audibly gag. The feeling of something rubbing along her delicate slit, teasing her entrance though, made her tense.

And then shriek as the other Gremlin's cock pushed inside her virgin pussy. Her hymen gave way to the monster cock that penetrated her, the bulbous cock-head pushing in deep until it kissed her cervix, stretching her pussy out in ways she'd never felt before. She'd barely ever touched herself let alone had sex and the feeling of having something so huge inside her made her mind nearly break, the shock of it all too much.

Unfortunately for her the Gremlins didn't grant her any reprieve.

A fact that Maestrale learned as the two Gremlins started to pound her from both ends, stuffing her mouth and pussy with gleeful howls. One cock filled her mouth and slapped its balls against her chin whilst the other Gremlin stuffed her pussy and gripped her sides, ravaging her and unheeding of her cries for them to stop. If anything her cries just embolden the sadistic creatures, their dicks stuffing her holes more vigorously.

Desperately Maestrale looked to her allies for help... only for her heart to sink as she saw Libeccio pinned to the dirt and being raped by a Gremlin as well. Not far past her Oite was being utterly gangbanged with many more Gremlins circling around, eagerly awaiting for their turn to mate with her. Such thoughts were shoved from Maestrale's mind though as pain flared in her loins once more, a muffled cry escaping the Destroyer as she felt the Gremlin's claws rake down her hips, drawing blood but also allowing it to grip onto her better, pulling her back onto its swollen dick.

''Mmph-! G-Ghk, guhk, hugk-!'' Maestrale made a series of gagging sounds as the Gremlin in front of her hit the back of her throat, the tip curving down it as if to fuck her throat too.

Maestrale whimpered at the thought but there was nothing to be done, nothing to fight with. Her kicks did little and her punches, frantic as they were, did little more than annoy the Gremlin holding her skull – prompting it press tis palms harshly against either side of her head. Pressure quickly built up and she cried out for it to stop lest it crush her head like an egg, her submission earning a pleased hiss from the humanoid creature as it continued fucking her mouth.

Another Gremlin came over then, crawling under her kneeling form – and Maestrale cried out as it went for her breasts, groping them and thrusting its cock up, managing to poke the tip into her navel. It wasn't even a penetration, the tip just-barely nuzzling that part of her, but the clawed hands that raked across her breasts were all too apparent, cutting into her sensitive flesh and making Maestrale sob with the pain, able to do naught but be used by the creatures.

What else would they do with her? Kill her when they were done? Leave her to be found by her allies, defiled and broken? Or, more frighteningly, would they drag her back to whatever nest they had and keep breeding her for hours, days, possibly even weeks? What if nobody found her or her sister ever again and the rest of their days was to be spent being cock-sleeves for the Gremlins... and how many offspring would they make her carry? Would she even survive?

So many frightening thoughts travelled through her head, her own mind offering her no shelter to the abuse her body was taking.

Suddenly she became aware of how harshly the Gremlin behind her was moving, how heavy it was breathing. Its cock pulsed against her sore insides, swelling as it plundered her depths even as the one in her mouth did the same, both Gremlins violating her with acute vigour – when with a sharp, unified howl they came. Maestrale felt it intimately, her heart dropping even as she felt warm gouts of semen pour into her womanhood; sticky, thick and undoubtedly reaching her womb, the creature's desire to impregnate her achieved. The other Gremlin was marginally more merciful in that it came down her throat, forcing Maestrale to quickly swallow lest she suffocated on its thick musky seed, her eyes watering as she audibly gulped it down.

Then at last both Gremlins pulled out, but it granted her no relief. She was sore, bleeding, and her body felt so very numb.

Unfortunately the time for rest was not now, and with a gleeful cackle the Goblin groping her tits crawled onto her, positioned itself between her limp legs and inserted itself into her – howling happily as it took its turn with her body, mating with her aggressively.

Maestrale, however, offered no resistance – eyes half-lidded and gaze a thousand yards long.

'Someone... save us...'
