Here's another chapter I was eating and watching a movie so I figured I'd type it up. If anyone hates or dislikes ryu objective complete I'm changing his characters slowly and you can't blame the guy. You'll hate him a lot more, or sympathize after this.

When ryu left yashima looked at him with hope that'd he turn to look at her, but he didn't. She was still crushed from last night, she spent her entire night crying. She wasn't sure what to think now, but she thought ryu wanted to be one.

She wondered what they were talking about it seemed serious. Hopefully she'd be able to explain herself to ryu and apologize for what she did. And hopefully he'd find it in his heart to forgive her.

"What do you think they're talking about?" Uzume asked her fellow sekirei.

"I'd like to find out." Toyotama said with a small frown. She didn't like being left out.

"I'm sure we'll find out, later." Kagari said calmly glancing at the door hiding the worry in his eyes.

Ryu-sama. Nanaha thought.

Ryu held his serious face from before. "Why do you ask?" He said with wide eyes.

Miya looked ahead in the yard, their breath visible with each breath exhaled. She'd have to stall on this, but there was something ryu was hiding as well. "How about an exchange?"

Ryu raised an eyebrow as he looked at her puzzled. "Information?" He asked unsure, miya nodded her as an answer. I guess she'd know. He thought sighing. "I thought if I threw all of it away, you'd never find out."

Miya laughed quietly. "There were boxes everywhere, did you think I wouldn't see that?" She asked.

Ryu's shoulders slumped. "Good point, he tried to get me to join when he sent all of that."

Miya narrowed her eyes as she turned to face ryu. "But I hate him, and I'd never join him." Ryu said venomously.

Ryu woke up with a loud growl. "What do you want?" He asked the man in white on his laptop monitor. He was groggy half, asleep, he was planning on spending the day with his sekirei, he was going shaopping for miya later as well. The last thing he wanted was to speak to some man that would one day force his sekirei to fight to the death. He turned to check that both nanaha and uzume were covered by blankets, he didn't want the president to see them when they weren't dressed.

"Hello, Ms. Sahashi, how are you today?" Asked the man on his laptop in a polite tone.

"Bad, since I saw you. What do you want?" Ryu said flatly. It did not escape his notice that minaka was avoiding the question.

"Haha, excellent joke Mr. Sahashi." Said minaka with a laugh. This man was starting to make ryu mad.

"I wasn't joking. Now! What do you want? I'm very bust today." He said disdainfully.

"Come now ryu, can't we be civil like gentlemen?" Minaka asked still using a polite tone though ryu could tell he was getting to him.

Ryu groaned taming his anger. "Fine, what do you want talk about hiroto, since it seems we're on the first name basis." Ryu said with a groan as he stood up. He headed for his duffel bag searching for something to wear. I have to get a real dresser sometime soon, ryu thought as he pawed through his bag.

"I wish to know how you winged two sekirei number ten and number seventy eight already. It shouldn't be impossible, who helped you, tell me, I wish to know who helped you."

"Number ten, and number seventy eight, as you like to politely put it. Have names you know. Their names are uzume and nanaha." Ryu said as he looked back at his laptop where minaka was still on the screen.

"Well, I hardly think it matters what her name is. The important thing is, is how you winged them." Said minaka, this angered ryu beyond words. This man toyed with the lives of sekirei and couldn't be bothered to even remember their names.

"Well it matters to me you arrogant fuck, their names are uzume and nanaha." Ryu said venomously. Just then, he saw the sheets that covered his sekirei begin to stir. Uzume sat up sleepily, rubbing her eyes, she was wearing her pink night lacepantie, it was one of her favorite things to wear, though ryu knew she had quite the collection of lingerie. Nanaha sat up slowly as well. He was glad to see that she wore the baggy shirt she normally wore to sleep in, she had a habit of stripping down to nothing after sneaking into his room with uzume. Not that he minded, he just didn't want minaka to see his sekirei nude.

"Hey girls, could you give me a minute?" Ryu asked, gesturing to his laptop where minaka still sat on the screen, dressed in his usual white outfit. Uzume nodded.

"C'mon nanaha, let's go get dressed." She said to his second sekirei, nanaha turned and she saw the professor on the screen a look of recognition flashed across her face, she nodded and headed with uzume back to their room. Unbeknownst to ryu, minaka caught a glimpse of uzume's back as she exited the room, he could see uzume's crest.

Behind his glasses his eyes widened in shock. What had cauhed her sekirei crest to change? This and a million other questions flashed through his twisted mind but they'd wait until later.

"So, what were you going on about?" Ryu asked the man on the monitor.

"I was wondering how you winged num... How you winged uzume and nanaha." Minaka said, making sure to correct himself this time.

"No different than how you wing sekirei, with a kiss. Isn't that's how it's supposed to work." Ryu said with a lazy shrug. He had no idea why minaka was bothering him so early with this and frankly, he didn't care. He just wanted to get on with his day.

"Well, this is puzzling news. Sit tight, we'll be in touch." Minaka started.

"Do you have to?" Ryu asked with a groan.

"Yes I do, now don't forget to wing plenty of sekirei. It will help you win the game, winning the game is the only way you get to stay with them. " Minaka said in a gleeful tone like he usually does when talking about anything that regarded the sekirei plan.

"Whatever. Don't remind me." He grumbled as his laptop went dark. He sighed lowly and began to get dressed. After he was dressed he headed downstairs when he heard a crash from the front yard. He headed over to the hallway windows, opened it up, and poked his head out to see the front lawn covered in thin slashes. Nanaha in the yard looking out of breath, staring intently at miya who was holding her katana, she held it in a defensive position still sheathed, but otherwise seemed fine.

MBI Two Months Earlier

Takami walked into minaka's office, in her hand she was holding the folder containing the results of the background test on ryu sahashi. It was a pretty dull read, save for one particular interesting document. The results of a DNA test from three years ago when ryu moved into the city. She quickly approached minaka's desk, with the president sitting comfortably behind it dressed in his usual attire.

"What have you got there takami?" Minaka asked his head of research.

She pinched the bridge of her nose. "Minaka, I've got the results of the background check you asked for on ryu sahashi. The boy was adopted by an unknown person twenty years ago, when he was supposedly found in the woods. He went to the school in the city, he scored above average marks all the way. He graduated 12th out of class of 350 students. Which is odd, considering this." She said as she took a piece paper out of the folder and sliding it across to minaka. Minaka picked it up in one gloved hand and scanned the paper. His eyes widened in suprise behind his glasses.

"Are you sure this is accurate?" He askec cautiously.

"Yes, it is. We double checked the results against the blood sample on file at the hospital. Thankfully it's a subsidary owned by MBI, that helped us get a hold of it quickly." She said curtly.

"That means this boy is-" minaka began slowly.

"The first recorded case of a human-sekirei hybrid in centuries." Takama said, finishing the president's sentence for him.

"And his parentage are we sure about it?" He asked. Takami nodded.

"Yes, this boy is undoubtedly the son of those two. Though, I doubt he knows it. It would most certainly explain the modified sekirei crest you saw on uzume earlier. Especially if takehito adjusted him at birth, remember he had that idea of how to let ashikabi neutralize the powers of hostile sekirei through skin contact. As well as one on how to remove the bond between an ashikabi and forcefully winged sekirei." Takami said in a serious tone.

"This could prove to be troublesome to the game. This boy has the potential to unbalance my life's work. I have to find a way to control him... Say takami, are we still looking for a person to run our new disciplinary squad?" He asked with a sly grin. As a thought had just occured to him on how he could solve both of those problems.

"I believe so sir." She replied, not following why that mattered right now.

"Have HR draw up some information on the position and send it to maison izumo along with these things." Minaka said as he scirbbled a list of items on a piece of paper and handed it to takami.

"Why?" She asked flatly after reading the list, the items on it looked like they for a child except for a few things.

"Don't question the game master takami. Just do as you're told. Off with you now." Minaka said waving his hand lazily as he turned around to look out the panoramic window that sat behind his desk. Takami stomped off angrily she hated the professor sometimes, even if he was the father of her children.

Izumo Inn Present Time

"And that's about it all in a nutshell." Ryu said as he reflected on the past events with a thoughtful look on his face.

"I see, well thanks for taking care of the mess they left on my porch."

Miya said with a slight giggle. She really hated MBI and didn't want anything that had to with them in her inn.

"Ah, sure." Ryu scratched the back of his head sheepishly with a faint blush.

Miya would like to fluster him more, but she needed to get a few things off her chest. "Now, I'll explain to you a few things. Do you want to good or bad first?" She asked looking at him with furrowed brows. Good or bad She thought with a hint of anger. Both are bad, damn minaka...

Ryu sighed he guessed there was always bad news as long as there was good news. "I guess give me the good news first." He said in a serious tone. For whatever reason he just needed to be prepared, it was just a gut feeling.

For some reason uzume was nervous, she felt like something big was happening. "They've been out there for a long time, what do you think is going on?"

Toyotama glared at the door huffing. "I don't know, but I don't like it."

"M-Maybe ryu-sama left." Yashima said quietly.

"Ryu-san would never leave!" Nanaha said with an edge to her voice that surprised all of them even herself. Yashima looked like she was about to cry but held it together. "Don't talk stupid, yashima."

Toyotama looked at her younger sekirei sister. "He wouldn't."

Yashima nodded with a small smile. She felt better now, but something still pulled at her core and she didn't know what or why? Just soon.

"I hope he's alright." Uzume said with a thoughtful face, worry slowly creeping into her eyes. "There have been several bombshells up to this point in his life, what if he?"

"Lost his mind?" Toyotama laughed at that one. She knew one thing about ryu, it was that he was mentally disiciplined how else did you go two hours against miya? "Don't count on it, he's a lot stronger than that."

"But he's still human." Uzume said looking at toyotama. For whatever reason she began to worry. "I think he just doesn't show it."

"You're just being paranoid." Toyotama waved off their doubt. She was confident ryu would come back, but in the back of her mind something

began to seep in.

Doubt.

"Ready when you are." Ryu said.

Miya nodded, letting out a breath. "I'm sekirei number one. The very first sekirei." Ryu's eyes widened like saucers at that. "My husband was a researcher at MBI, that was how we met but that's another story for another time." Ryu nodded his head again, slowly, waiting for her to continue. "Us sekirei have a sixth sense, you could say, when our true ashikabi is around... We loose sense of ourself." She told him gauging his reaction but he kept his face impassive. "It is true that we can emerge from any ashikabi but our bond is stronger if we join with our very own ashikabi."

"Okay." Ryu nodded his head in understanding. "But, how doe-" ryu was cut off as miya raised her hand to stop him. When he looked into her eyes he could see they were full of determination. He closed his mouth and started to listen once more.

Now it was time to drop the bombshell.

"Ryu. You are my ashikabi." Ryu's eyes widened at that. "As I am your sekirei." She continued. "That night, my body was reacting to you, I all but emerged, when you were checking my temprature with your forehead. I tried to kiss you." Ryu blushed slightly at that. "I lost myself." She said lowering her head. "I never expected to be apart of the sekirei plan, when I married, I refused minaka and left the discipline squad. But now, my body's reacting to you. Which means, I'm a part of this game as much as you are."

"Miya, if you don't want to, you don't have to." Ryu told her. "I don't expect you to do something you don't want to."

"I have no choice now." Miya told him. "If I don't emerge at the end of the first phase, minaka will let everyone know that there is one sekirei left and ashikabi from all over will try to claim me as theirs. There is no escaping this game ryu." Ryu's nostrils flared in rage, he clenched his teeth in anger balling up his fists. "I need you to kiss, let me emerge."

"No." Ryu told her shaking his head with a stern face. "I won't, you don't want to become emerged otherwise you would have come to me sooner."

Miya's eyes widened at the rejection. "I won't force you to do this, if any ashikabi comes after you I'll stop them! I won't make you do something you don't want to do." Miya's eyes widened even more at his reasoning and tear almost pooled out the corner of her eye before she lowered her head to the ground in a bow.

"Thank you." Miya said, ryu laughed lightly. "But I can't accept." Ryu's eyes bucked at that as he realized what she had said. "I can't allow my ashkabi to put himself in danger just because I'm a selfish. I can't accept." She looked up and was surprised when she seen a look of determination on ryu's face.

"I won't become your ashikabi. You don't want anything to do with this game and honestly I don't either. I've already got uzume, nanaha, yashima, matsu, and karasuba as my sekirei... Much to my dismay." He muttered to himself. "But, you miya. You don't have to be awakened or whatever it is, I won't let you. I'm sure if you ask nicely kagari won't let you become emerged either. He's a sekirei after all too."

"How did you know that?" Miya asked with wide eyes, ryu just smiled at her.

"The day I got here I could tell you weren't exactly human. I could tell by the power you were releasing. When karasuba emerged the other day, I felt her power being suppressed before it burst out. You have the same suppression on your power. You and kagari both have the same suppression upon them. I can't sense your chakra even now your's is flooding from you and it would only be an ocean more than it is now if released." Ryu told her. "Once I get this information and I go over a plan, until then no more talking about me becoming your ashikabi alright?" Miya simply stared at him before lowering her head.

"It won't work... Minaka will find a way to make my emergence come about."

"Let him try." Ryu told her. "I've faced off against worse than some super genius or whatever he is." Ryu shrugged. "What's one more notch in the belt of weirdos I got to beat down?" He chuckled. Miya smiled and brushed a few strands of hair out of her eyes and stared at ryu with a gentle smile on her face making ryu blush lightly and look away from her scratching the back of his head.

"One day, perhaps, we can both come to an agreement and you will allow me to emerge and become your sekirei." Ryu widened his eyes at that as miya stood up and headed for the door before stopping. "When you sensed kagari's power... Did you notice anything strange about it?" She questioned.

"Actually... Now that you say it, it was abnormally unstable." Ryu said remembering back to when he sensed kagari's chakra level. Miya nodded her head in understanding.

"Kagari isn't your normal sekirei." That was all miya told him before taking a few steps forward and turning around. Ryu looked at the spot where miya was, then back at her.

Time for another bombshell.

"Now, I'll tell you about your parents." Miya said. Ryu's eyes widened before he stood up in anticipation. For some reason, he began to feel nervous. But who wouldn't be overwhelmed a bit after hearing that information that learning about your parents.

And that's it for this chapter. I had to leave a cliffhanger, you know? ^_^ I like suspense. And the chakra thing, I don't know if I should call it chi, essence, ki, chakra, reiatsu... But it's energy you know so don't nitpick!

A lot going on, do you think ryu's is going to leave? Good guess! And how do people feel about musubi being in his harem? I got enough requests or votes for yomi, so I figured I'd do that at the right time, not yet though. Much too early.
