Chapter 06: A Cloak and Dagger Operation

– Yukio Yashida –

Eyeing Ellie as she watched another news report about Kuro's heroics, she giggled slightly at how glued to the screen Ellie was, distracting Ellie, who turned towards her with a frown.

"What are you giggling about?" Ellie asked as she finally shut off the computer, coming to the bed, her modest breasts attracting Yukio's eyes as she walked, making Ellie smirk proudly.

Ellie only slept in her panties, just like her. They had nothing the other hadn't seen, touched, and licked a thousand times before, and modesty was pretty pointless at this point.

"You. You were so focused on the screen, but I'm not surprised; Kuro was on it after all," Yukio said with a small smile as Ellie sat on the bed next to her, blinking.

"Okay? And what is that supposed to mean?" Ellie asked after a moment, staring at her in confusion as Yukio smiled teasingly.

"That you're interested in Kuro. You seemed to be having fun in class with him," Yukio said, watching Ellie's eyes widen briefly as a hint of a blush graced her girlfriend's cheeks, but it faded quickly.

"Nah, it's nothing to do with Kuro. I was just wondering what the news had to say about someone with powers like us. That's all," Ellie replied quickly, waving her hand. She sounded defensive, a hint of guilt on her face.

"Then why were you blushing?" Yukio asked in amusement.

"I wasn't," Ellie claimed, frowning as Yukio giggled.

"I'm not talking about right now; I mean when we were in class. When I came over, your face was bright red," Yukio explained, making Ellie blanch, looking away.

"No! It's not like that, Kuro just- I like girls, you should know that; we've been dating long enough," Ellie explained away quickly, her posture becoming more tense.

"Of course you do, but that doesn't mean you can't like guys, too," Yukio replied calmly, giving her a kind look as she placed her hand on her girlfriend's bare leg.

"I… I wasn't… Fine, look, I didn't want to bring it up, but when we were fighting, he pinned me under him, and while I was trying to push him off, I accidentally pushed my ass against his dick, and he got hard. It was embarrassing," Ellie said with a blush. "I wasn't blushing out of attraction; it was just embarrassing, that's all. I could feel it pushing between my cheeks, and our exercise clothes are thin."

"Uhuh, sure. But you didn't hit him when he got off you, even if it was your fault. You always get punchy when guys embarrass you. Plus, your panties were a bit wet when you got undressed after class. I know you, Ellie, and I know when you're aroused, Yukio explained calmly, watching Ellie's eyes widen in shock and a look of fear cross her face. It was actually rather cute how embarrassed she was getting.

"I didn't-" Ellie started before she sighed. "Fine, his thing brushed against my pussy, okay? Yes, I got horny. I'm sorry," Ellie said with a sigh of defeat, freezing as Yukio leaned forward, kissing her deeply.

"Why are you apologising? I'm not angry. We've always been honest with each other, right? So, be honest. Do you find Kuro attractive?" Yukio asked, making Ellie blush and look away.

"Ugh, fine, yes, I do. Happy? Yes, I think he's hot, but I've never liked guys before," Ellie complained, doubt filling her tone as a confused look settled on her face.

"Maybe you just have particular tastes?" Yukio asked with a shrug, making Ellie laugh.

"I knew I shouldn't have watched those vampire flicks; the pale skin, red eyes and black hair really make him look supernatural. Why aren't you angry?" Ellie asked hesitantly, making Yukio giggle. "I basically humped a guy I find cute while dating you, and you don't even seem to care."

"Because I love you," Yukio said easily, watching Ellie's face turn bright red. "I want you to be happy, and I know you love me. Kuro isn't going to steal you away from me, even if you think he's hot. So, you said you don't like guys, but if you had a chance to test that with Kuro, with no consequences, would you?" Yukio asked calmly, smiling at the blush as it travelled even further down Ellie's bare chest.

"I... of course not! I'm dating you; I'm not gonna mess around with Kuro," Ellie said stubbornly.

"And Kuro is dating Rogue and Kitty, so what?" Yukio asked with a slight tilt to her head.

"So… I mean, it's not right, even if you and those two were alright with it- what if anyone found out?" Ellie trailed off, clearly making excuses.

"And since when has the rebellious Negasonic cared what other people think of her?" Yukio questioned in amusement.

"I... what are you suggesting?" Ellie asked after a moment of silence, almost scared to hear the answer.

"Suggesting? Nothing at all. But you've been off since that class; I think the best way to get you back to normal would be for you to find out if you really are interested in men?" Yukio pointed out, making Ellie blanch slightly. "All I'm saying is that if an opportunity to find out happens to come up? Don't turn it down just because you think I'd hate you for it. No matter what happens, you'll still be my girlfriend, and I'll still love you," Yukio said kindly, kissing her girlfriend again.

"What if I do test it and find out that I really do like Kuro?" Ellie asked after a moment of silent thought, making Yukio giggle.

"Well, then maybe Kuro has room for a third girlfriend and a fourth that comes along with her," Yukio said with a casual shrug before she burst into giggles at Ellie's dumbstruck face.

"I didn't think you liked men," Ellie pointed out, making Yukio shrug carelessly.

"I don't, not really, but I think I could really enjoy spending some time with Kuro as long as you were there as well. I guess I'm Ellie-sexual?" Yukio said with a smirk as Ellie went deep red again.

That was always so fun.

"I... look, I'll think about it, okay?" Ellie said with a sigh.

"That's all I ask, but for now," Yukio trailed off with a grin, seeing Ellie's eyes widen just before she pounced, pushing her down onto the bed.

Ellie was her girlfriend, after all, and clearly, she needed some reassurance that their relationship was solid. Adding Kuro into the mix wasn't going to tear them apart; it would just give them another thing to enjoy together.

The mental image of Ellie beneath Kuro as he pounded into her made Yukio smile, licking her lips before she moved her head between Ellie's legs.

– Mary-Jane Watson (Spinneret) –

"See!? I told you that you can't just assume that this Kuro is evil," Annie cheered triumphantly, her eyes glued to the screen as she watched him save the alternate Peter.

"And I told you that you can't assume he's a good person from one good deed; Kuro's a good actor," Mary-Jane replied immediately, making her daughter scoff. "He had us all fooled for years; you think our Kuro never played the hero?"

They'd managed to arrange for a hotel room for now; she knew where some lost treasure was from an old adventure with Peter, and tracking it down in this world so she could pawn it had set them up for a while. Annie looked away, the stubbornness on her face clear to see.

"He brutally murdered your father, Annie," Mary-Jane said harshly, making her daughter flinch violently. "Kuro raped me for hours, forcing your father to watch the entire time, and if Peter hadn't given his life to save you, he would have done the same to you. I know you fell for his kind act; we all did, but it was just that, an act. Kuro would have violated you for hours, torturing and raping you just because it amused him, and then when you were broken, he would have had his 'Empress' violate our minds and rebuild them to be whatever he wanted. Kuro is not a good person; you need to accept that. This Kuro is the same, a villain through and through," Mary-Jane said sternly, watching her daughter start to respond before she changed her mind and stormed off. Annie wouldn't leave the hotel room, at least.

After she'd gotten them set up, it'd all finally hit her. Peter was dead, and they were trapped on a different earth; Peter had likely already been brought back, but as one of Kuro's abominations. They could never go back; she'd never see her husband again.

She'd broken down, disgust and hatred flooding her veins. She could still feel Kuro's touch on her body, his rough hands groping her, his vile shaft splitting her apart. She could still taste his seed on her tongue, feel it leaking from her holes, which would never truly be the same after what she was put through.

She couldn't sleep without waking up in a cold sweat, and she had nightmares of what had happened, what would have happened if she hadn't escaped, and what would happen if Kuro decided to come looking for her. Her mind replayed every detail of her defilement on repeat, from the horrified look on Annie's face as she watched her get sodomised to the reluctant climax Peter was forced to experience as Susan, a woman they once respected, rode him while forcing him to watch her get defiled, unable to stop it, the way her body had become so pliant for Kuro by the end.

By now, she must have showered a hundred times, but she still felt filthy and used. She'd taken some morning-after pills, just in case, so at the very least, she didn't have to worry about that. It was the slightest mercy.

As cruel as it was to think, maybe it would have been better if Peter had just waited a little longer. Annie was groped, but she'd recovered from that quickly. Perhaps it would have been better if Annie had been subjected to just a little bit more to wipe this ridiculous idea from her mind that Kuro could be good. Annie wouldn't still look up to that bastard if she went through even a fraction of what Kuro had put her through. Peter should have waited and let Kuro have his way with Annie first; maybe there would have even been a better chance for them all to escape if he hadn't rushed.

But why would Kuro save Peter, though? A young and inexperienced Peter, at that. Not to mention, why did Kuro have one of the rings that the Masters of the Mystic Arts used? She'd seen Doctor Strange using his before; she recognised the portal he had made. Was this Kuro a part of Kamar-Taj?

What was his plan? Kuro didn't do anything if it didn't benefit him.

She couldn't warn Peter without coming off as a crazy woman; this young Peter didn't have the experience that her Peter had possessed just yet. He didn't know anything about time travel or interdimensional portals, and she couldn't warn anyone without being locked up, either in a madhouse or by people wanting future knowledge. Kuro destroyed her suit, so she was utterly powerless again. Maybe she could find a symbiote again? No, she wouldn't even know where to look, and Kuro always had a way with the symbiotes.

But she couldn't leave Kuro to his devices; she couldn't fail another world. She knew the hell that this world was facing; Kuro would rise again and conquer all. She had to stop him by any means.

So what should she do? The one advantage she had was that this Kuro didn't seem to know her younger self; she'd checked their school, and Kuro wasn't even attending the same school as them. He had no reason to suspect her as anything other than an ordinary woman. Her anonymity was her best weapon; she had to keep it that way until she was ready to strike.

- Kuro -

-5 Affection with Mary-Jane Watson (Spinneret) [-75/100] for deceiving her daughter.

+10 Affection with Anna-May Parker (Spiderling) [30/100] for saving her father.

What.

I hate Marvel sometimes. Peter is clearly too young to have a child, which means it's either some time travel bullshit or some multiversal bullshit. Judging by the weird affection scores, I'm guessing it is multiversal bullshit, which means that some other Kuro has pissed off Mary-Jane, and I'm the one paying for it.

Alternatively, it is time travel bullshit, and I'm paying for my own future actions, which is just as annoying but less unfair. I can totally see me pissing them off, but what I can't see is me leaving Mary-Jane to Spidey. I like the guy; I like redheads more.

Wait a minute, aren't Spiderling and Spinneret from the Spider Family comics?

I never read them, but I can remember seeing bits of them as one of the few worlds where Peter Parker can actually have a happy relationship without the writers fucking him. So this is multiversal bullshit! Woo!

Wait, did an alternate Kuro ruin one of the only worlds where Peter actually gets to be happy? Man, that guy's luck fucking blows.

Whatever, I'll deal with that shit later, I need to focus anyway.

"Are you ready?" I ask Rogue quietly, getting a nod from her.

Focusing for a moment, I open up a portal and step towards it; Rogue hesitates for a moment before she joins me, stepping through the rift in the air.

"Kuro?" Tandy asks, standing up from the couch quickly as we appear in the middle of her living room, looking around wildly as the portal closes. "I didn't think you'd be this quick- wait, who is that?" Tandy asks, spotting Rogue who is standing somewhat behind me awkwardly.

"Tandy, meet Rogue, she's offered to help. Rogue, meet Tandy. Now, can we focus on the important thing? You know, the entire reason we're here?" I ask, making Tandy's face flush in embarrassment.

"Yeah, sorry. I've been checking the windows, but he hasn't shown up yet. He's done it every single night so far; it's only a matter of time," Tandy says quietly, hugging herself slightly to calm her nerves.

"Right, then it's just a waiting game. Tandy, you keep checking the windows with the curtains mostly closed; he won't be able to see that you have company until it's too late; if he shows up again, we'll grab him," I order, taking charge and making her nod. "Rogue, we will handle the fighting if it comes to that," I finish, making her nod hesitantly.

"If I touch him, he should go down hard. I might be able to see why he's doing this, too, Sugah. What happens after we catch him?" she asks, making me hesitate. I want him dead for inconveniencing me and scaring Tandy, who Background Kuro had some feelings for even if he didn't want to admit it. I can feel the echoes of them in my chest, the way she's hugging herself angering me. She's obviously terrified, and that won't do.

"I'm not sure yet. I want to know why he's doing this before I make any decisions. If this guy is just some teenage stalker with a crush, I'll beat his ass and toss him through a portal dumping his ass in the ass-end of nowhere. If he's got worse plans for Tandy? Well, I'll decide later," I say.

"Are you going to kill him?" Rogue asks hesitantly, making me sigh as I see Tandy look at me as well. Rogue is still a hero at heart, and I'm a terrible influence.

"I know the X-Men aren't supposed to kill, but I have to admit that Logan has a point. When he took me to pick up the new girl, he slaughtered the slavers without mercy or hesitation. The simple fact is that sometimes the world is just better off without certain people in it. If this guy turns out to be a serial killer, a rapist or something like that? Then yes, yes, I will," I admit, making her pause before she takes a deep breath and nods at me.

"Professor Logan would approve, and he is my favourite teacher. Fine, if this guy is that bad, he won't be missed," Rogue says after a moment, her tone wavering. When it comes to it, I'll do the deed. Rogue doesn't need this on her hands.

"Your life is fucking crazy, Kuro," Tandy says after a moment, making me chuckle darkly.

"I'm not the one being stalked, but yeah, it really is. Is it going to be a problem if I have to consider a permanent solution?" I ask, making her shake her head, her eyes narrowing in anger.

"This bastard has tormented me for days. I don't know what he wants, but all I want is him gone," Tandy says quickly as I take a look at her more carefully. She looks paler than I 'remember', she has bags under her eyes, and she's noticeably jittery. Her eyes keep flickering around the room as if she's expecting her stalker to jump out from behind the couch with a knife.

"Don't worry; the next time he shows up will be the last, one way or another," I promise, giving her a tight hug. Despite the fact that we both agreed not to get close, Tandy immediately snuggles happily into my arms. She wraps her arms around me, leaning in as I gently stroke her blonde hair.

Glancing at Rogue, I catch a slight smile on her face, seeing me comfort Tandy. That's good; I was a bit worried about her getting possessive with any girl other than Kitty. She gives me a soft, almost proud smile as I nod to her.

– Later –

"He's here," Tandy whispers as she peaks through the curtains, making me sigh in relief.

I might not need as much sleep as normal thanks to my [Peak Condition] perk, but god damn, it's already 4 am, and I like sleeping dammit. Sitting around waiting for some creepy fucker to show up isn't my idea of a good time.

Tandy's mom is completely out of it; I went up to her room and checked. She's out like a light, and even my poking and prodding didn't wake the drunk up. Funnily enough, Rogue and Tandy bonded over shitty parents; I guess the adopted daughter of Mystique would know a thing or two about crappy moms.

"So, now what?" Rogue asks.

"Now we jump him. Tandy, you stay here, tell me exactly where he is, and I'll open a portal behind him," I say, getting up. "Rogue and I will rush him and take the creep down."

"He's in the alleyway across the street; he's standing right at the opening, just staring at the house," Tandy says quickly.

"Right then, ready, Rogue?" I ask, getting a nod as she moves to stand next to me. "Opening the portal in three, two, one… now," I say, making a portal and jumping through it, appearing directly behind him as I lash out, punching him in the face hard as he spins around, his hood being knocked off as the dark-skinned teen stares at me in shock and confusion. "Hi, Tandy sends her love," I say as I grab him, throwing him over my shoulder and smashing him into the ground in a move I experienced earlier. Only I was the one being thrown. Logan doesn't hold back much, but I learned a thing or two from getting my hand handed to me.

As he hits the ground he disperses into a cloud of darkness, making both our eyes widen in shock, irritation clear on my face.

"He's a mutant?" Rogue asks as the cloud of darkness moves away, reforming back into a human form as I frown. I've not been using Observe. Frankly, I don't need it in Marvel. I know basically everyone I've met so far anyway, but this is precisely why I have it.

Tyrone Johnson (Cloak)

Race – Human (Mutate)

Unique Powers - Darkforce Manipulation

Darkforce Manipulation? My Marvel knowledge is starting to fail me because I don't know anything about the Darkforce. Wait, isn't the Darkforce part of what made Mr Negative all weird?

"No, I would have negated his powers if he was. Can you drain him?" I ask as we get ready, a crazed look in the teen's eyes as he glares right at us. Is that hunger in his eyes? Not the best sign; I figured I was dealing with a stalker, not a cannibal.

-100 Reputation with Tyrone Johnson (Cloak) [-100/100] for getting between him and the Light. Dude is crazy, but having a power that compels him to consume the living would do that.

Cloak sounds oddly familiar, but… nope, I've got nothing. If I ever knew this guy, he didn't leave an impression because I'm drawing blanks.

"I'll try," Rogue says as Cloak charges us before he turns back into a cloud of rolling shadows, attempting to engulf us.

Unluckily for him, I've got some light for him right here. I create a handful of arrows made of pure light, glowing with a golden shine as they fire forward and pierce the clouds. I can feel the shadows trying to do something to my mind, but Isis is having none of that and negates it with contemptuous ease.

Rogue isn't so lucky, and almost immediately, she starts to break down into whimpers, making me growl at seeing one of my girls so afraid. Closing the distance between us, I create several arrows and pierce them into the ground in a circle around us, each arrow further empowered as I create a safe space, bathed in my light, forcing the shadows back.

It's not how the spell is supposed to be used, but I've always been good at improvisation. I can already see the shadows trying to devour the light within my arrows, corroding them slowly, but it is taking a while simply due to the number of arrows I'm tossing out. For every arrow the shadows consume, I throw two more, but I can't keep this up forever.

"I- thanks, that was unpleasant," Rogue says as she steadies herself. "I can't grab him while he's a cloud, and if you're too close, my powers shut off," Rogue says, making me frown. Tossing a light arrow into the clouds, I watch as the darkness consumes it, making me frown thoughtfully. Is it just me, or is the cloud getting smaller?

The arrows are saturating his Darkness, Master. Keep it up, and you'll force him back into his human form, where you can commit violence on him!

Well, when you put it like that. Focusing, I create a dozen arrows as they swirl around me and Rogue before they all shoot out. With his cloud trying to envelop our little circle of light, I literally can't miss him. Converting my internal mana into pure Light, I toss arrow after arrow at him with no hesitation, eating away at his cloud of darkness.

The shadows slowly pull away, revealing the teen again as he slumps forward with a sigh. I don't give him a chance to recover, moving forward as he tries to raise his hand to try and stop me. Nah, fuck you, you don't get a time-out. Knocking his hand aside, I stab him in the stomach with a newly formed light arrow, sinking it in deep as I glare down at him.

His eyes widen in shock as I feel some warm blood start to leak onto my hand; wasting no time, I grab him again and toss him towards Rogue, being far enough away that I'm not nullifying her anymore.

Rogue doesn't hesitate, grabbing his face with both hands. He immediately tries to pry her hands from him, watching as he flails around; his face becomes increasingly withered as Rogue holds on to him.

I think she's pretty pissed about whatever the cloud did to her mind, and she's vicious. God, I knew I liked her for a reason.

After what seems like an eternity, she lets go, and he falls to the floor, leaving him laid out on the floor, unmoving but breathing weakly. He's still alive, barely.

"Ugh, that was disgusting," Rogue mutters as she stands up, gagging slightly. "He won't be moving any time soon, but his powers are nasty," Rogue says as she walks over to me, almost sighing in relief as my powers negate hers again.

"Did you see anything?" I ask, making her nod.

"Let's take him back to Tandy. I only want to say this once," Rogue says as I grab the unmoving teen, tossing him over my shoulder as I reopen the portal. He's unresisting as I carry him through the portal, tossing him on the floor of the living room.

"Kuro! Oh, thank fuck. I thought I'd gotten you both killed," Tandy says, rushing forward and hugging me and Rogue in relief. "Seeing all that darkness coming from the alleyway, I thought he'd…"

"Nah, we aren't that easy to kill off. I don't die easy. So, Rogue, who the fuck is this guy, and why is he a walking cloud of darkness?" I ask, making her turn to Tandy.

"Do you recognise him? I saw his memories; they are part of my power. You two met when you were much younger, and you were in a car crash, trapped underwater." Rogue starts making Tandy frown as she looks over 'Tyrone'.

Seriously, I feel like I know the name Cloak, but it's just not ringing a bell.

Cloak is part of the hero team, Cloak and Dagger. Tandy is the other half. Or they would be, but somehow, I don't think that's going to happen. Shiro has a weird sense of humour; he made Tyrone awaken his powers again much sooner, and without her light to satiate him, he's gone insane from the dark hunger.

Ahh, yeah, I have no idea who they are. It must have been one of the comics that I missed completely, I guess.

"I… I remember that, but it was years ago. I only vaguely remember the crash and some other kid, but no, I don't recognise him," Tandy admits, frowning.

"I don't blame you; how could you expect your stalker to be someone you met once as a kid? Whatever happened to you two, it gave him these powers, and it gave you powers as well; that's why he was searching for you. His powers made him… hunger to consume the life force from other people with his darkness; he thought hoped that your light could satisfy his hunger," Rogue explains hesitantly, flinching slightly as she did, lost in his memories.

"You okay, Rogue?" I ask, squeezing her hand as she smiles at me.

"Sorry, I was stuck in his bad memories. He tried not to listen to his powers, but he didn't always succeed, especially as he got 'hungrier'. He's killed before, more and more as time went by to try and keep his hunger at bay. Serial killer might just be the right word for him, even if he tried to stop himself," Rogue admits as she shakes her head, trying to shrug off the unpleasant memories.

"I don't have powers, I think? I've never- What... what would he have done to me if you two weren't here?" Tandy asks after a moment, looking down at herself in confusion. Her own powers must not have awoken, but she is Cloak.

"I don't know because he didn't either. He was just trying to 'find his light'. The later memories are more unhinged; they barely make sense because he didn't even know what he was going to do," Rogue admits slowly.

"So, what do we do with him?" Tandy asks as we look at the unconscious teen. He's supposed to become a hero, but it sounds like he also is supposed to become Tandy's lover. Sucks to suck; time to go.

"He wasn't a bad person before his powers awoke, but he's gone mad from the hunger; I think he'll keep trying to kill if we leave him alone," Rogue admits, making me internally smile at her words.

"I-I'll go with whatever Kuro wants to do," Tandy says quickly.

"Well, if you think he'd keep killing, then there's only one real answer. If I have to choose between a mass murderer's life and the lives of his future victims, the answer is clear," I say calmly, opening another portal. "It's better if I don't do it here. I don't want to leave any evidence," I say, grabbing him and tossing him over my shoulder.

Rogue looks hesitant, but Tandy nods at me as I walk through it.

Do you know the best way to avoid having a crime investigated?

Do it somewhere where there isn't anybody to investigate it, such as a war zone in the Middle East, filled with already dead slavers.

Logan's trip has had some unexpected benefits. Who's going to investigate some random dead guy on a mountain in Afghanistan? Stripping him down and sticking his clothes in my inventory to stop his Western clothes from attracting unwanted suspicions, I make my decision on how I want to kill this guy in a way that won't look too odd.

Pulling out the gun I stole before, I smile to myself. I knew I kept this for a reason; one gunshot later, and Tyrone is gone from this world. One clip full of bullets to the face leaves him beyond recognition.

Hearing some shouting in the distance, I open the portal and walk back through calmly, leaving Tyrone to be discovered by whoever that was.

"Was that a mountain?" Rogue asks as she looks at the closing portal, brows furrowed.

"Yup, don't have to worry about the NYPD investigation of a body found in the ass-end of the Middle East. And just like that, you're safe again, Tandy. The life of some deranged serial killer is a small price to pay for that." I say, smiling at her as she hugs me tightly.

+40 Affection with Tandy Bowen (Dagger) [75/100] for saving her life.

+10 Affection with Rogue [70/100] for being willing to do what's necessary to protect your girls.

It's actually quite funny! Tandy was never in any danger, and Tyrone would have regained his senses after Dagger's power had activated, calming him and allowing him to regain his sanity.

Yeah, well, I'm not telling her that.

"Thank you, both of you," Tandy mumbles as she hugs me tighter, making Rogue and I share a smile. We've done good work tonight, from a certain point of view.

From their point of view, I'll let them keep that delusion.

Sorry, Tyrone, but you've actually served a decent purpose. Rogue was draining him for a long, long time, and if I remember correctly, that's how she gains the powers of Captain Marvel in some versions.

So, theoretically, my girl just got a power-up.

"It was nothing; I just came along to help out Kuro," Rogue says quickly, unaware of the potential side effects of tonight. Rogue is an easy target to grind obedience and affection; powering her up with Cloak's weird darkness powers seems like fun, and if she needs a 'light' of her own, I'm standing right here. My light magic actually seemed to bring him to his senses at the end, which is why I stabbed him before he could speak. It's better for Rogue's conscience if she's draining a deranged madman instead of a poor victim.

"Hey, Kuro, what school are you going to now?" Tandy asks hesitantly.

"Xavier's School for Gifted Students on Monday and Tuesday, Midtown High on Wednesday and Thursday and Massachusetts Academy on Friday and Saturday. Don't ask," I say calmly, making her blink before she hesitates.

"Midtown isn't that far away from here; maybe it's time for a change," Tandy says after a moment, looking at me nervously as I give her a teasing smile.

"Oh, really, missing me already? What happened to us staying impersonal?" I ask teasingly, smirking down at her as she blushes and slaps my chest.

"Shut it. You know you're the only person I talk to at school anyway, and mom won't care; I can get her to agree if I time it right," Tandy mutters, making me chuckle. I get the feeling the 'right time' is when her mom is plastered or high as a kite.

"Well, aren't you just adorable? Though, to be fair, you're the only person I spoke to there as well, and the place is kinda a dump, so it'd be nice to have you around." I say, making her smile shyly.

"So, are you two together?" Tandy asks, moving away from me. She looks between Rogue and me. "Look, I'm not gonna try and take him from you, but-"

"Relax, Tandy. Yes, I'm dating Kuro, but the horndog already has one other girlfriend, who happens to be my best friend, and I'm pretty sure he's banging one of our teachers," Rogue explains with a slight laugh, making Tandy snort as she gives me a look. Rogue leans in, giving Tandy a light hug as she whispers in her ear. "Don't let me stop you. Go for it, girl, get your man, just know you're gonna be sharing him."

I wasn't supposed to hear the words, Rogue pulling back as Tandy blushes slightly.

"Yeah, you might have powers now, but you haven't changed much, have you? You just wouldn't be you if you could keep it in your pants. I was going to invite you to stay the night, but if Mom catches you here, she might actually kill you. She's still really pissed with you about last time," Tandy laughs, not refuting Rogue's suggestion.

"Eh, the fuck did I do?" I ask, blinking. I don't remember fucking over Tandy's mom. "What happened last time?"

"...you got us both very drunk and talked us into a threesome. How the hell did you forget that?" Tandy asks with a confused look. Ahh, yeah, I do vaguely remember that. Past Kuro had a bit too much to drink as well, so it's a bit blurry. "She got dumped after her boyfriend caught her bouncing on your cock, which is why I wasn't angry. That guy was a douchebag; Mom was only dating him because he could get her drugs, so a drunken, incestuous threesome was a small price to pay to get ruin that relationship."

"So, what you're saying is that I helped? You're welcome, and I'm glad to be of service. Let me know if you need me to fuck your mom again," I say after a moment, making her snort.

"I'll let you know if I need your unique services again, but you should probably get going. I know how grumpy you can be when you don't get enough sleep," Tandy teases. "I don't want you all sulky and broody because you didn't get your ten hours."

"Hey, sleep is good! I'll see you around, Tandy. Come on, Rogue, a comfy bed awaits us. We have Logan's class first thing again tomorrow, and if I'm getting my ass kicked again, I'd prefer not to do it while exhausted," I mutter, opening a portal.

Pausing, I give Tandy a quick kiss and maybe squeeze her ass once before I let go of her, making her snort and give me a sultry look as I head through the portal with a yawn and a wave. Tandy has a point: I get ruffled when I don't get enough sleep.

"You did great tonight, Rogue, and I appreciate the help. I know you don't like your power, but you did fantastically," I say, giving her a deep kiss as we get changed back into our sleepwear, making her blush deeply.

"You know we're going to get in trouble the moment the Headmaster finds out about this?" Rogue says hesitatingly, making me snort.

"Let me worry about that. He needs me a hell of a lot more than I need him, and he knows it. Worse comes to worse, Emma Frost would love a pair of transfers to her school, not that Xavier would let it go that far. Don't worry, babe. I'll handle the nosy old man," I say, making her smile at me as we get back into bed, Kitty immediately cuddling against us, still fast asleep, clinging to us like the cutest octopus in the world.

Seriously, just how heavy of a sleeper is she?

– Next Day –

"Huh, that was easy," Ellie says with a smirk as I pick myself off the ground, grumbling several unkind words as I brush myself off.

"Yeah, Yeah. I'm still warming up; I slept like shit, I grumble, shaking myself slightly.

"Sure, whatever helps you sleep well at night. You're definitely not just making up excuses for why you got your ass beat," Ellie taunts as she gets back into position, playing a dangerous game.

"If I slept well last night, you'd be face down, ass up on the ground, just like you're about to be in a moment," I say, getting into position myself; as she prepares to rush at me, I get my game head on and actual fight properly.

I was still half-asleep in our first fight, and it ended up with me being slammed into the ground.

We're in the danger room today, separated into groups. Logan is busy helping someone else today, so I'm free from the feral beast. Instead, I got to pair with Ellie, Yukio and Rogue.

My upgrade quest finished while I was sleeping again, so I can disable my power at will. Next, I'm going for the ability to pick and choose what powers I allow. It needs twenty hours and two hundred individual nullifications in total, but that's child's play while I'm here.

Rogue and Yukio are just watching for now. I was supposed to be sparring with Rogue, but Ellie wanted revenge for the ass-kicking I gave her last night.

"Woo! Go, Ellie! No offence, Kuro!" Yukio cheers, making me chuckle.

"Nah, Kuro's going to kick her pretty little ass. Sorry, Ellie," Rogue counters casually, her confidence in me encouraging me to beat Ellie like a red-headed stepchild. I can't let my girl down.

"Well, I can't lose now. Wouldn't want to let down my best cheerleader," I say with a smirk as she returns it with a cocky grin.

"Same, Yukio won't let me live it down if I don't kick your ass," Ellie says as she rushes towards me. I dodge her initial punch and series to get me the same way she did last time, with a leg sweep, trying to knock me on my ass.

Last time, I was too asleep to notice the sweeping leg, but hitting the ground woke me right up, and I am a competitive person. Stepping back, I move out of the reach of her extended leg, smiling to myself as I reach down and grab the vulnerable limb. Fool me once, shame on me, but that isn't going to work twice.

Her eyes widen as I simply grab her ankle with both hands and flip it into the air, sending her falling back onto her ass; not wasting time as I rush her and grab her. I toss her over my shoulder, making her yelp as I rush to the edge of the arena and just yeet her ass out of the arena.

The Danger Room is great. The X-Men use it for more advanced and realistic simulations for their training, but we're just using it to make some normal fighting arenas. This one looks more like a Mortal Kombat stage, the Wu Shi Academy stage, to be exact. Honestly, they probably shouldn't have let me design it.

They took away my spikes when I tried to fill the pit with them, though. I know the original Wu Shi Academy didn't have death pit spikes, but I just think that most places can be improved by giant spike pits.

Watching Ellie flail as she goes over the edge and into the pit makes me grin. It might not be a spike pit, but there is just something very satisfying about throwing people into giant holes.

The glare on her face as she climbs the ladder out is equally satisfying.

"Enjoy the climb? I hear it's a good workout. A few more times, and you'll be in great shape." I say in amusement as she brushes herself off.

"I am in great shape. Why did you add a giant pit again?" Ellies asks in annoyance, giving me a dirty look.

"So I could throw you into it, obviously. Let's be honest; if you tossed me into the pit, you'd be just as amused." I say, making her pause before she sighs and nods. "And yeah, you are in great shape. Really rocking those tight shorts."

"Shut up, and fine, yeah… it would be pretty funny to see you go over the edge, so let's try it out," Ellies says, getting back into position and making me smirk.

"Told you, I'm awake now. Do you really want to go for a fly again? I could take you without breaking a sweat, even if your pretty little girlfriend were backing you up," I taunt, making Ellie scowl; before she can respond, Yukio pipes in, interrupting us.

"Really? Let's find out!" Yukio says, walking next to her girlfriend with a grin. "Me and Ellie versus you," Yukio suggests, making me hesitate despite my boasting. Yukio is actually a really talented fighter, even if she lacks the strength and power I have. Negating her power won't be that useful; she's just damn good.

"What's wrong, Kuro? Don't tell me you're all bark and no bite?" Ellie asks with a smirk, noticing my hesitation and wasting no time to get even as she senses weakness.

"What if we make it more interesting?" Yukio says with a hint of something in her tone, getting both of our attention and smiling at us.

"What do you have in mind?" I ask hesitantly. I don't really know Yukio that well; even the Deadpool movie doesn't tell you that much about her. She's just kinda there.

"A bet! We fight in an anything-goes 2v1 battle, with people only losing when they're knocked out of the arena or they surrender. The winner and/or winners get to order the loser (and/or) losers around for the rest of today; anything goes!" Yukio suggests happily, making Ellie's eyes widen; grabbing her girlfriend and whispering something to her quickly. I pause, looking at the cute Asian girl and her hot emo girlfriend. Anything goes, huh?

Hidden Objective: ?

Hidden Reward: ?

Worst case is I lose and look like a dumbass; even with the bet, I highly doubt Ellie and Yukio would have me do anything terrible. Would they make me do something embarrassing? Absolutely, but I don't see them as trying to do anything harmful. Best case? I get free class progression and two hot girls.

"What's wrong, Ellie? Don't tell me you're all bark and no bite. I'm game if you aren't too scared," I taunt back, making her look at me with a scowl. She hesitates before she straightens up and gives me a look.

"Bring it on," Ellie growls; she's easy to mess with.

"This is going to be fun!" Yukio says as she gets into a far more professional stance than me or Ellie. I doubt I'll be getting my bonus upgrades, but I should be able to make up the difference between us; after all, she said it herself… anything goes.

See, my little escapade last night gave me more experience with light magic and that let me make something fun.

[Binding Chains of Light]

This spell allows you to manifest golden chains made of pure light mana, which you can mentally direct. These chains are highly effective against demonic creatures and other creatures of evil. The durability of the chains scales with your Int.

"Rogue, count us down, please," I request, getting a nod from her.

"Sure thing, Sugah. Five, four, three, two, one... Fight!" Rogue shouts. The moment she declares the fight has begun, I send forth my mana and cast my new spell, bright golden chains bursting from the ground and wrapping around Yukio before she can react, tightly binding her as she falls to the ground, her legs chained together, a surprised shout.

"What the-" Ellie starts, distracted by her girlfriend's situation as I rush her; she barely has time to realise her mistake before I charge into her without pausing.

Just call me the Juggernaut, bitch.

Shoulder-tackling her, I bowl her over and knock her flat on her ass, forming more chains as they start to wrap around her, making her groan in pain at the tight binding. Picking her up, I lift her and simply toss her away again. Her face is very entertaining as she plummets into the pit again.

"Bye-bye! Hey, anything goes, right?" I ask tauntingly, turning back to Yukio. That took all of a few seconds, but my chains were already starting to fail. My White Magic Proficiency is only at Novice, so my spells are still somewhat disappointing, but the main issue is that the moment I moved away, she used her powers to electrify the chains and damage them.

As she breaks free, she gets up quickly with a spinning move, making me back off. Her legs spin a little too close, and she flips back onto her feet. Moving in again, I try to overwhelm her as I throw a wild haymaker at her, which she calmly deflects with some Hong Kong movie shit, her palm guiding my fist to her side as she steps the other way.

She can't block my attacks, and she knows it. I'm too strong in comparison to her, and I'd just overwhelm her, but she can just direct my punch away from her as she dodges.

As she moves in to try and strike me, no doubt having some martial arts action flick bullshit prepared, I respond by lashing out and kicking her in the stomach hard, sending her backwards; unlike Ellie, she only goes a few steps before she steadies herself, a look of concentration on her face.

Focusing myself as she moves forward again, I form a light arrow and launch it at her, casting [Binding Chains of Light] at the same time. She dodges under the admittedly slow-flying arrow, but the chains burst from the ground again. This time, she's ready for my magic bullshit, and she flips back, dodging the chains as well.

What she doesn't avoid is part three of my genius plan. My arrow and chains were just to get her into the right position and knock her off balance while I charged forward and rushed her. Wrapping my arms around her chest, I pin her arms to her side as I squeeze her hard enough to get a yelp of pain. With her caught in my grasp, my chains reform and bind her legs to stop her from kicking me in an attempt to get free.

"Anything goes, right?" I ask her, our faces inches from each other as she winces, quietly crying out in pain.

"I-I should have been more specific, huh?" Yukio asks, mostly calm, the occasion grunt of pain leaving her as my grip gets tighter.

"Yup, so, do you want to surrender?" I ask, recasting my chains, just in case, forming them around her legs and chest this time.

"N-nope-" Yukio grunts out, struggling as she tries to break free. Out of the corner of my eyes, I see Ellie re-enter the arena, starting to rush towards us before Rogue stops her.

"You went out of the arena; you're out of the fight," Rogue says sternly. "If you get involved, you both lose anyway," Rogue says sternly, making Ellie pause, looking indecisive.

"Don't worry, Ellie. It'll be over soon, anyway," I say with a grin, tightening my grip again as Yukio moans in pain; I can almost feel her bones creaking under my strength. If she doesn't want to take the easy way, I'll take her out of the fight the hard way.

"I… fuck, just give up, Yukio. A dumb spar isn't worth getting seriously hurt," Ellie says with a scowl, making Yukio sigh, a look of stubbornness appearing on her face, looking completely out of place on her adorable face.

After a moment of hesitation, she sighs again.

"Okay, fine. I give up, you big cheater," Yukio mumbles as I let her go, and the chains vanish. I catch her wince of pain, and a quick Healing Scan shows that I've actually cracked three of her ribs. Whoops.

"Wait, come here," I say as I work my magic on her; it takes a few casts to get her back into shape before long, and her ribs are back in perfect condition. It's not a bad thing to break a cute girl's bones if you fix them again afterwards.

"Thanks, Kuro; she gets weirdly stubborn about fighting sometimes," Ellie mutters, giving Yukio a look. "Either she barely tries at all because she's too scared of hurting her partner, or she decides a simple spar is a fight to the death. Dumbass," Ellie scolds fondly as she checks Yukio over, watching her girlfriend pout, looking like a particularly angry kitty.

Hidden Objective: Cheat your way to victory.

Hidden Reward: White Magic Proficiency Upgraded

[White Magic Proficiency: Apprentice]

You have taken your first steps on the path of the White Mage, finding your footing. As such, you have learnt how to alter your internal mana into pure light magic, increasing the efficiency of White Magic spells and reducing their cost.

[The Gunshow] - Athlete Skill

You look damn good, and you know it. Years of training have made you a work of art, and the girls just love seeing you hone your body. When you are working out, you give off an aura that arouses any girl who watches, subtly enthralling them. In addition, you cannot get tired or get bad body odour while you are being watched; you wouldn't want to embarrass yourself, would you?

[Honed Fists] - Martial Artist Skill

You strike hard, knowing how to put every drop of your strength into your blows. Your unarmed attacks scale with strength twice as often as usual.

...I think I just got an erection. I already have A+ strength, so I now hit like a fucking truck, and Gunshow is just good for getting laid. Obviously, increasing my White Magic Proficiency is just good across the board.

"As you can see, my bite is worse than my bark. Feel free to praise me," I say with a smirk as Ellie sighs in annoyance.

"Fine, congratulations, you managed to beat up a pair of teenage girls, and you just had to cheat to do it. I'm sure you're so proud," Ellie drawls out, making me laugh.

"I believe in equal rights and equal lefts. These fists are unisex, plus one of those teenage girls was doing some Kung Fu bullshit. Yukio was about to beat my ass; damn right, I cheated," I reply, making her laugh.

"Oh yeah, she was absolutely going to kick your ass. Still, you really like grappling, huh?" Ellie asks after a moment, pausing as I heal the growing bruise on her stomach.

"Yes, it's a legitimate tactic. I wasn't going to try beating Yukio in a game of skill; that's a losing game, and I know it, so I just used raw power. She can't beat my ass with her far better skill if she can't move at all," I say shamelessly, shrugging.

"Fair enough, playing to your strengths is smart. Logan would approve, I guess. You win; we didn't say you couldn't use magic, after all," Ellie admits with a shrug.

"And that means..." I say, making her sigh again.

"Ugh, you're gonna make me say it? It means that me and Yukio have to do what you say until midnight, happy now?" she asks, flipping me off as I laugh.

"Of course, victory is sweet," I admit, grinning.

"So, what do you want us to do?" Ellie asks, crossing her arms as she gives me a challenging look

"Right now? Nothing, Logan could show up any minute, and I don't want to end up fighting him again. Something tells me that my little magic tricks wouldn't work as well against the hairy berserker, but after this class is done? When we get changed back into our normal clothes, I want you two to switch outfits and stay that way for the rest of the day," I order, making her stare at me in confusion.

"Wait, why?" Ellie asks after a moment, trying to work out what I am scheming.

"Oh, that's easy. I just think the idea of you wearing a skirt and Yukio wearing your punk rocker look is hilarious," I say with a shrug, making her facepalm.

"Dude, you've got two hot lesbians who have to do anything, and you just want us to swap clothes? This is gonna suck; I fucking hate skirts," Ellie whines.

"That's all I want, for now," I correct, giving her a smug look as Yukio giggles.

"Ooh, I haven't seen you wear a skirt in ages. This is going to be fun!" Yukio cheers, making Ellie roll her eyes.

For now, it's back to actually studying. Spitting up, I spar with Rogue for the rest of the class, letting her fight normally for once. She loses pretty badly, but she doesn't seem particularly bothered. Honestly, she seems to like grappling, and her hands have a tendency to roam while we fight. It's actually more effective against me than most fighting styles; her groping is more distracting than any punches.

After class ends, we head to the changing rooms, with Ellie and Yukio heading into one stall together. I get changed quickly and wait outside their stall with a grin. It's not long until Yukio happily skips out wearing Ellie's torn jeans and punk-themed t-shirt, with some band logo I don't recognise, giving me a spin as she does.

The stall remains closed as Ellie hides inside it.

"Ellie, either you can come out, or I'm coming in," I say with a smirk, her hand popping out and flipping me off before it goes back inside. I can hear Yukio giggling behind me, amused by her girlfriend's embarrassment.

"Well, don't say I didn't warn you," I say, stepping past the curtain as she glares at me. "I don't know why you're so embarrassed; you look good," I say with a smirk as I look over her. Yukio dresses like your typical girl next door, with a long, modest skirt down to her shins and a cute pink blouse. It doesn't quite fit Ellie quite as well as it does Yukio.

Ellie doesn't seem to find it as funny as me.

"I look ridiculous; how Yukio wears this all day, I don't know. Do I really have to go to class like this?" Ellie mutters as she tugs at the blouse with a scowl. "I'd rather go to class naked."

"Tell you what, since I'm such a nice guy, I'll give you a choice. You can go back to your room and get a new outfit if you give me your underwear and don't put any more on," I offer, making her stare at me in annoyance.

"You're a pervert," Ellie says with a raised eyebrow.

"Hey, I'm giving you a choice here, like the generous master that I am. There wouldn't be much point in the bet if it didn't embarrass you or benefit me. If you want to blame anyone, blame your cute little girlfriend who suggested this bet to begin with," I say, making her sigh.

"Trust me, I do. Yukio's games always end with me embarrassed, but normally, it doesn't include being in public," Ellie says, pausing for a moment. "Ugh, fine. Are you going to turn around?" Ellie asks after a moment, giving me a challenging look.

"Wasn't planning on it; like I said, this might as well benefit me, or are you planning on wimping out?" I ask, making her groan and roll her eyes.

"A bet's a bet, and I'm not a pussy," Ellie says, pulling her skirt up, exposing her long, pale legs. I can't really see anything since she's lifted it from behind the front, the long skirt still mostly covering her, but after a moment, she pulls down a pair of incredibly frilly pink panties and steps out of them.

"Okay, there's no way in hell that those are your panties," I say as she kicks them off her leg.

"Yukio insisted that underwear counted as part of the outfit, and then she stole mine, so it was or go commando. Trust me, I'm starting to wish I never bothered," Ellie mutters as she turns away, unbuttoning her blouse and awkwardly undoing her bra, pulling it off and redoing her blouse; I can just see her nipples against the thin cloth. Tossing it to the ground, she crosses her arms over her chest and gives me a deadpan stare. "Happy now, dickhead? Can I get go and get changed?" Ellie asks as I pick up the underwear, sticking the bra in my inventory and the panties in my pocket. "Those are Yukio's favourite pair; you better give them back later."

"Sure, sure, better run to your room quickly, or you'll be late for class," I say, making her eyes widen.

The school is enormous, and the dorms are pretty far away from the class. Ororo doesn't allow people to get away with being late to her classes; she's a strict teacher, and Ellie knows it.

Today should be fun.

– Ellie Phimister (Negasonic Teenage Warhead) –

Rushing back to her room, she practically tore the frilly clothes off the moment she got inside, tossing them away in disgust as she grabbed a new outfit.

"Aww, but you looked so cute in them," Yukio pouted in amusement, sitting on the bed and watching her get changed with a grin.

"No, you look cute dressed like that. It doesn't suit me at all," Ellie complained, frowning before she gave her girlfriend a dirty look. "You let him win," Ellie said, her tone accusing as Yukio giggled.

"Nope. I was planning on putting up a fight and then letting him 'beat' me, but it turns out I didn't need to. Kuro is freakishly strong; I thought he was going to snap me in two. I thought all he knew how to do was make portals and heal; I wasn't expecting the other magic," Yukio admitted with an embarrassed shrug, kicking her feet.

Ellie paused for a moment, admiring the way Yukio pulled off her torn jeans and boots. She could really pull off the punk-rock look, so she could at least thank Kuro for giving her a sight like that.

"And now we both have to do whatever Kuro says for the rest of the day. Did you really think this through? Kuro's a pervert, I mean, at least he's honest about it, but he's still a pervert that can order us to do anything he wants," Ellie pointed out, slightly trepidatious despite herself.

"It'll be fine; this is for the best. You have a single day for you to work out your feelings over him, and once it's over, you can just play it off as a pervy bet. No hard feelings, and any awkwardness will be forgotten soon enough; Kuro has other girls to distract himself with, after all," Yukio explained as she pulled on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt, looking down at where her nipples were clearly viable through the white t-shirt with a frown. Grabbing her biker jacket, she tossed it on, covering herself better as she grumbled, leaving it open.

"Yeah, yeah. Just remember that this was your idea when Kuro decides he wants to bend you over," Ellie muttered, feeling herself pause as she imagined the sight of Kuro and Yukio together, her cheeks heating up. "No complaining when you're on your knees; you did this."

Why was that image kinda hot?

"I won't; it's just a bet, after all. Just some harmless fun," Yukio replied with a casual smile and a shrug as they set off back to class before they were late; Professor Ororo would disapprove of them being tardy because of a bet.

One day, she'd manage to be as laid back and carefree as Yukio, one day. But it sure as fuck wasn't going to be today.

Running through the hallways, she scowled as they barely reached the classroom in time. It did occur to her that Kuro could make portals as she rushed through the overly large school, cursing the smug prick as she felt herself grow out of breath as they entered the classroom.

Kuro himself was sitting at the back of the class, giving her a grin as he patted the seat next to him, making her bit her lip as she approached, once more giving her girlfriend a dirty look.

"Aww, you looked better before," Kuro teased quietly as she sat next to him, Yukio giggling beside her. Great, trapped between the pervert and the naughty girlfriend. "You know, I can see that you aren't wearing a bra, but I have to check to make sure you kept your side of the deal,"

"And how are you supposed to do that?" Ellie asked quietly, immediately feeling his hand on her lower back, slowly moving down and slipping beneath her jeans. She went still as the class stared, feeling Kuro's hand groping her bare ass as she glared at him lightly, trying not to draw attention.

"There, no underwear, happy now?" Ellie asked as calmly as she could, feeling Kuro squeeze her ass with a smirk on his face. She went to reply but froze as she felt a second hand on her ass, making her sigh as she glared at her unrepentantly grinning girlfriend.

"What? It looked fun," Yukio teased, the idiots groping her as she felt herself going red. Kuro's hand shifted, moving to the front as he slipped it back into her jeans, right between her legs as she froze, feeling Kuro's middle finger slowly drag along her admittedly wet slit, making her force down a moan.

Yukio, being Yukio, was no help as she giggled and continued to play with Ellie's ass.

Professor Munroe paused her lecture, giving them an unamused look, before she continued, her tone clipped.

This class was going to be a pain, trapped between two perverts.

– Later –

Okay, what the fuck. Professor Munroe absolutely saw Kuro feeling her up, and she didn't say a thing. What the fuck did Kuro have on her to make the ordinarily strict teacher ignore a girl getting fingered in the back of her class? The rest of the classes continued the same way; Kuro just kept teasing her for his amusement, with Yukio acting like his partner in crime and egging him on to go further.

Yukio could be such a little devil sometimes.

Standing in Kuro's room, Ellie frowned as she watched Kuro sit down on his bed, looking at her and Yukio as they stood before him. This was it; classes were over, but Kuro still wanted to play.

"So, what do you want us to do?" Ellie asked hesitantly, seeing him smirk at her. "Also, what do you have on Professor Ororo for her to ignore you fucking around in her class?"

"Heh. For certain reasons, the big boss here really wants me to stay, and he's already really pissed me off, so I can get away with a lot. Call it preferential treatment, but Ororo knows that even if she tried to punish me, nothing would come of it. As for what I want, I'm honestly not sure yet. I have you both for the rest of the night, so I might as well make the most of it, right?" Kuro asked, making her sigh.

"I would have," Ellie admitted, not blaming him for the mess she'd landed herself in. "I had some fun ideas on how to embarrass you if we won, and a bet is a bet. You won; to the victor go the spoils; do what you want," Ellied reluctantly admitted. Her pride had bit her in the ass, but she wasn't a sore loser.

"Thanks, I think I will. Let's start easy, Ellie, come sit next to me," Kuro ordered, making her shift forward as he patted the bed next to him. Taking a seat, she was unsurprised when he put an arm around her shoulder, reaching down and resting it on her breast. Her jacket was already off; it was too hot to keep it on. "Now, Yukio… I want you to give us a strip tease."

Ellie paused, looking towards her girlfriend, who hesitated for a moment. She thought for a brief second that Yukio was regretting her little bet, but Yukio just smiled as she pulled out her phone and played around with it. She wasn't embarrassed; she was trying to pick the music to dance to.

Ellie couldn't help but feel a little nervous as she watched Yukio get into position, her heart racing at the thought of Yukio giving Kuro such a show... but she knew that this was all part of their bet, reminding herself that once this was over, she could get over this stupid crush and Yukio would still be her girlfriend.

Ellie couldn't help but feel a little nervous as she watched Yukio get into position, her heart racing at the thought of Yukio giving Kuro such a show... but she knew that this was all part of their bet, reminding herself that once this was over, she could get over this stupid crush and Yukio would still be her girlfriend.

"Relax, Ellie, just enjoy the show," Kuro whispered, kissing her neck as she felt her blush grow. Some normie club music was playing as Yukio got ready, kicking off the heavy boots first. Yukio was too dedicated to this because she knew her boots were a size too big for her girlfriend.

Yukio began to move her body, her hips swaying seductively to the music as she slowly peeled off her shirt. Ellie couldn't help but watch in awe as her girlfriend revealed more and more skin until she pulled her top over her head, tossing it aside with a sultry smile, wearing Ellie's sports bra. They were both B-cup, so they could swap bras without any real issue, even if they both had different ideas over what underwear they preferred.

Yukio twirled, her body gyrating as they both watched the show. Turning away from them, Yukio pushed her ass out towards them as she hooked her fingers into the torn jeans she was wearing and, sinfully, slowly pulled them down.

The act was somewhat marred by the fact that Yukio was wearing her underwear, the dull black sports bra and panties, but it couldn't truly detract from how seductive her girlfriend was being. Now down to just her underwear, Yukio paused the stripping to dance some more, moving closer to the pair as Ellie gulped at the hungry look in Yukio's eyes.

She was so fucking beautiful, and a part of her was grateful to Kuro for this idea. Her body couldn't help but respond, nipples hardening and her thighs growing damp, but whether that was because of the show or because Kuro was still playing with her, she couldn't say.

Yukio reached back, unclipping the bra as she let it slip off, exposing her small but incredibly perky breasts, her nipples clearly hard from arousal. She twirled the bra around her finger for a moment before she tossed it, the sports bra slapping against Ellie's face as Yukio giggled.

Yukio ran her hands along her body, still dancing and swaying, and Ellie couldn't look away as Yukio teased her own body, giving the pair of them a show. She was only vaguely aware when Kuro pulled her t-shirt off, only annoyed because it briefly blocked her view of the show.

Her eyes were pulled away as Kuro removed his own shirt, tossing it away with a grin on his face as he watched Yukio dance. Her movements were beyond graceful, swirling and shifting in time with the music. She couldn't help but be envious of how confident Yukio was, but why wouldn't she be? Yukio's skin was flawless, perky breasts bounced with each exaggerated movement, and finally, the panties came down, and Yukio kicked them towards her, landing in Ellie's lap as she gulped. Yukio's slit was cleanly shaven, the tight pink pussy on full display, glistening with arousal.

"She's beautiful, isn't she?" Kuro whispered into her ear, making Ellie nod mechanically, unwilling to look away as Yukio kept dancing, now utterly naked and seemingly proud of it. "Take off your trousers."

She hesitated, but not for long, as she pushed down the jeans that already had a damp spot thanks to her lack of underwear, kicking them away with far less grace than her girlfriend. Kuro undid his own trousers, pushing them down and sitting back down in just his boxers, clearly tented.

"Yukio, why don't we make this dance a little more intimate," Kuro ordered, making Yukio giggle. "Give Ellie a lap dance."

"Sure!" Yukio agreed, moving forward with a sway to her hips. Ellie felt the blood rush to her cheeks as Yukio sauntered over, her naked body on full display as she straddled her lap. She couldn't stop her hands from reaching up and grasping Yukio's hips as her girlfriend started to move, gyrating in her lap as their bodies pushed against one another.

"Kiss her, "Kuro ordered, making Ellie's blush grow.

"Really? Don't you see enough of this with Rogue and Kitty?" Ellie asked before Yukio captured her lips, stopping her from saying anything else as Yukio's hands moved to her breasts, toying with them in the way only Yukio knew how.

"Rogue and Kitty would happily make out for my entertainment, but they're straight... mostly, I'm not entirely sure about Kitty, but then I don't think she is either. The point is that they both prefer men, so I want to see how much of a difference it makes when both girls are very much into girls," Kuro said, moving behind Yukio as he reached around and started to gently caress Yukio's breasts, playing with her tiny nipples as he kissed her neck.

They stayed like this for a while. Yukio was trapped between them and all the happier for it. Kuro enjoyed the show and groped both of them as he pleased, but after what seemed like a tortuous age, he moved back.

"Yukio, get Ellie ready for me," Kuro ordered, making Ellie's eyes widen as Yukio gave her one last peck on the lips before she slipped down and off the bed, kneeling between Ellie's spread legs. Yukio wasted no time, latching her mouth onto Ellie's already-soaked cunt as she licked and sucked, looking up at her with loving eyes. She was about to lose her virginity, and her girlfriend was helping prepare her for it.

Kuro sat next to her and turned her to face him as he took Yukio's place and kissed her. His lips were rougher than Yukio's, but they weren't unpleasant. They even tasted different; Yukio had a berry-like taste, while Kuro almost tasted like… was that vanilla?

Yukio was still watching them, but it was arousal in her eyes, not jealousy, as she watched her girlfriend make out with a guy they only met yesterday. She was expecting Yukio to at least regret this a little, but she was very good at reading her girlfriend. The look in her eyes was pure lust, and nothing more.

"Mhmm, she's ready for you, Kuro," Yukio said, grinning. "She's already so fucking wet."

Ellie tried to defend herself, but Kuro's mouth silenced her words before he pulled back with a grin.

"Then get me ready, Yukio," Kuro ordered. Ellie froze as she watched her girlfriend shuffle over. Yukio moved between Kuro's spread knees with a smile on her face as she gripped his boxers and slowly pulled them down. "Actually, Ellie, stop being so lazy and just sitting there. Help your girlfriend."

She was only doing what he told her to! The prick just grinned at her as she moved down herself, kneeling beside her girlfriend as she watched Yukio slowly lean in, and she knew Yukio was going slow to give her a chance to stop this.

She didn't and just watched as Yukio took a deep breath and leaned forward, her tongue caressing the tip of Kuro's manhood briefly as she tasted him. Ellie watched in awe as her girlfriend took the tip into her mouth, moving her head further down as she took more and more of Kuro into her mouth, bobbing her head slowly as she sucked him off. The sight was both erotic and intimidating to Ellie; she had never seen a guy's cock before outside of porn, let alone one that size. Yukio wasn't having any trouble, and Ellie moved herself.

Gripping her girlfriend's dyed pink hair, she guided Yukio to pleasure Kuro as she watched, enraptured. Her body pressed against Yukio's back; her breasts squashed against Yukio as her hard nipples rubbed against her, reaching around and sliding one hand between Yukio's parted legs. Her girlfriend was soaked, utterly drenched, as she gave Kuro a blowjob. She should hate this; she'd picked a fight with some guys for looking at Yukio for too long… but here, she could only watch in awe as Yukio pleasured Kuro.

Honestly, it wasn't like this was even that bad, reminding herself that it was just a game, just a bet. Just like Yukio said, they were just trying this out to see how she liked it. If she didn't like this, then tomorrow, she could brush it all off, not make any more bets and just stay friends with Kuro instead.

Kuro's dick was longer than their strap-on, thicker too. It was going to be inside her soon… she was going to be taking that entire thing inside her virgin pussy.

"That's enough, Yukio," Kuro said, making her girlfriend pull back, the cock audibly popping out of Yukio's mouth as she smiled up at her.

Yukio stood up, Kuro pulling her in and whispering something to his partner in crime as she giggled lewdly, nodding.

"It's your turn, Ellie. You'll like it, I promise," Yukio whispered to her, pushing her forward so she was now in between Kuro's legs. She looked up at him, Yukio moving behind her as she hesitated. "Kuro loves your lips; they're so plump… and they'll look so good wrapped around his cock. Go on, give it a lick."

She was many things, but a coward wasn't one of them. Moving slowly, she reached forward and wrapped her fingers around his shaft. It was hot to touch, already lubricated with Yukio's saliva. It was nothing like the cold plastic she was used to; it was harder than she expected as well, and she gave it several experimental strokes before she leaned in and placed a light kiss on the tip of the shaft, the salty taste of his pre-cum made her grimace for a moment before she paused. Huh, it didn't taste as bad as she thought it would. Not pausing for long, she moved her head even lower. She ran her tongue along his shaft, from the base to the tip, before she took the bulbous head into her mouth.

Yukio moved up, sitting next to Kuro as she ran her hands along his chest and placed several kisses along his neck and face.

"You're her first real dick, Kuro. She's only played with toys and me before you," Yukio said, kissing Kuro repeatedly, her hand resting on Ellie's head as she guided it further down the hot shaft. "You like that, don't you? How does it feel to have a lesbian on her knees, sucking your cock while her girlfriend watches?"

"It feels amazing, she's a natural cocksucker. You must have known something like this would happen when you made that bet?" Kuro asked, giving Yukio a knowing look. "No teenage boy would miss a chance to have a threesome with a hot lesbian couple, and you practically served yourself and Ellie to me on a platter; why?" Kuro asked, making Yukio hesitate.

"I did it because Ellie has a thing for you," Yukio admitted, making her eyes widen as Kuro turned to her. She wasn't exactly in a position to refute Yukio's words, her mouth full of Kuro's dick.

"Well, well, well… isn't that interesting?" Kuro drawled before gripping her short hair and pulling her off his shaft. "Yukio, be a dear and take her place, Ellie; let's talk," Kuro ordered, pulling her next to him as Yukio placed a series of kisses along his chest, getting lower and lower before she was leaning down with her head in his lap, wrapping her lips around it obediently.

"I... it's not like that," Ellie muttered as she leaned against his chest, his hand going back to her ass immediately, watching as Yukio bob her head.

"Oh, what is it like then?" Kuro asked her, his free hand guiding Yukio as she blew him; despite seeing her girlfriend sucking someone off, she couldn't deny that Yukio looked beautiful as she stared up at them, drool trailing down her chin.

"I... I don't fucking know, okay? I like girls, and I've never liked a single guy, not even celebrities, but there's something different about you. Yukio noticed I was into you, so she decided to help me work it out. She means well; she just has weird ideas sometimes." Ellie admitted with a fond sigh, leaning against Kuro's chest, her head on his shoulder.

"...then I'll give you a proper choice, no catch this time. If you really want to, you and Yukio can leave. You can write this off as a failed experiment, no hard feelings between us," Kuro offered, making her freeze. "Or you can stay, and you know full well where that is going to go."

"Just like that? No catch? You don't even want us to finish you off first?" Ellie asked, looking at him intensely.

"I'll call for Rogue to take over; she won't mind. I like you, Ellie, you're pretty cool, and Yukio is fun, so I'm not gonna make you do anything you find uncomfortable. I was testing you in the changing room and then in the classroom to see how far you'd let me go. You never even tried to stop me," Kuro pointed out, making her pause in thought. He wasn't wrong; for all her complaining, she never tried to put a stop to the games.

"Tonight doesn't mean anything. In the morning, I'll decide if I want a repeat, but you should try everything once, right?" Ellie asked, kissing him briefly. She knew she was blushing but he didn't call her out on it. "If I decide this was a mistake, we never talk about this again."

"Fair enough. Tonight is just some fun, just an experiment," Kuro agreed, capturing her lips.

And just like that, she couldn't blame Yukio for this any more; she'd been offered an out, and turned him down. She was here because she wanted to be here. They made out for a while longer, Yukio continuing to pleasure Kuro with increased enthusiasm.

Watching as Yukio sped up her bobbing, her eyes widened as Kuro grunted, thrusting his hips up slightly, moments later she saw the thick white cum leak out from her girlfriend's lips and trail down his shaft as she pulled back, the last of the cum landing on her cheek. As Yukio held the cum in her mouth, Kuro pushed her towards her girlfriend.

"Go on, give her a kiss. You should try everything once, right?" Kuro said teasingly, giving him an annoyed stare.

She did as she was told, kissing her girlfriend deeply as Yukio pushed some of the cum into her mouth with her tongue, swallowing quickly. She had to admit it wasn't nearly as bad as she expected it to be. It was salty, but not too salty to be unpleasant, and the texture wasn't bad as it slowly slid down her throat.

"There we go, now clean your girlfriend's face," Kuro ordered, making her blush as she licked the cum from Yukio's cheek, making her giggle.

"W-what happens now?" Ellie asked, watching Kuro move back further onto the bed, leaning against the headboard. Yukio grabbed her hand and guided her to join him, whispering something into her ear.

Blushing, she followed Yukio's advice as they moved on either side of him, moving their legs over his waist. It was a little awkward, but before long, they had his fat cock trapped between them, their pussies grinding along it on either side as they scissored with him between them. She couldn't muffle her moans, the feeling of his cock grinding along her slit making her eyes roll back slightly as Yukio did the same.

"Kuro," Yukio gasped out, already starting to feel the familiar tingle building within her core. Ellie could feel her girlfriend's hips pressing down against hers as they both ground against Kuro's thick member. It was almost too intense for Ellie to handle; she'd never felt anything like it before. Maybe it was all the teasing leading up to this, but she couldn't stop the desperate gyrating of her hips as she rubbed herself along Kuro's cock, Kuro thrusting up as he hotdogged both of their pussies at once.

For a moment, Ellie forgot all about the fact that this was supposed to be an experiment and nothing more. All she could think about was how good it felt to have Kuro pressed up against her body like this. Leaning back, she placed her hands on the bed to steady herself as she moved her hips.

"Yukio, K-Kuro… I'm going to- Oh, fuck," Ellie gasped out as she felt herself reaching a peak of pleasure that she didn't even know existed before tonight. Their toys just didn't compare.

"I'm close," Yukio replied, clearly breathless. "I-I don't think I can hold back much longer."

Taking their words as a challenge, Kuro increased his pace, and soon, both girls were lost in pure ecstasy. Her body shuddered, and her arms gave out as she called out Kuro's name, her climax crossing over her as she collapsed into a boneless mess.

Yukio kept her composure better, letting out a cry of pleasure as her body bucked and shuddered in pleasure, Kuro's cock soaked by their arousal.

Looking at the pair, she could only pant as they shared a look.

"Do it, she's ready," Yukio said eagerly, Kuro moving her so she was laid straight on the bed, on her back, with him hovering over her with an eager smile. She didn't hesitate, legs parting to grant him access. He slapped his rock-hard shaft against her pussy, giving her one last chance to back out.

"J-just be gentle; our toys are smaller than you," Ellie mumbled, spreading her legs as wide as she could, watching as Yukio wrapped her arm around Kuro's shoulder. Yukio grasped Kuro's cock and helped line it up, the tip slowly spreading her lower lips as it pushed into her. Kuro listened to her request as he slowly fed the thick shaft into her, inch after inch disappearing into her tight slit.

"How does it feel, baby?" Yukio asked, a strange hint of something in her tone. "How does your first cock feel?"

"He's- so fucking big... it's splitting me in two," Ellie admitted as she felt him finally bottom out in her, reaching depths previously untouched. "I've never been this full before~"

Her voice was lewd, her usual blank, snarky tone faded from the nonstop pleasure.

"Go on, Kuro, fuck her. Pound my girlfriend's pussy, ruin the slut," Yukio encouraged, playing with herself as she whispered into his ears. Smirking, Kuro pulled out till only the tip was still within her; as she attempted to brace herself, he thrust down into her again in one fast move, piercing straight to the entrance of her womb, a loud moan leaving her as he started to move properly, setting a constant rhythm as he began to hammer into her, the bed shaking with each thrust. Yukio cheered, clapping excitedly as Ellie's breasts bounced wildly from the sudden pounding.

Each time he moved, a jolt of pleasure ran through her body, her moans quickly filling the room, almost drowning out Yukio's encouragements, urging him to fuck her harder.

"You've never moaned that loud for me, you slut," Yukio said, placing kisses across her face. "You love it, don't you? A real dick pounding your dyke pussy. I bet our toys won't even do it for you after Kuro ruins you, ruins us both."

Yukio's tone was breathy, her eyes wide as she watched Kuro's shaft sink into Ellie over and over again.

Oh god, it all made sense now; Yukio was just getting hornier as she watched her get fucked. Yukio was a cuckquean. She wanted to see her girlfriend get fucked by another person, wanted to watch as Ellie was stolen from her... how the hell did she miss that?

Well, because Yukio had never found someone who fit the bill to join them. She knew they wouldn't do something like this with just anyone, and then came along Kuro, the hot playboy with two girlfriends, who Ellie found attractive.

As Kuro pulled out of her, she whined in disappointment at the sudden emptiness before she could stop herself, barely having time to question what was going on before she was spun around and pulled onto her hands and knees, Kuro immediately thrusting back into her.

"Needed to change position to speed up; get ready, Ellie," Kuro warned, giving her a moment to adjust before he started moving again, speeding up quickly as he bottomed out inside her repeatedly, holding her hip with one hand while the other was tightly gripping her short hair, pulling her head up and making her stare straight at the masturbating Yukio, whose fingers were speeding up as she pumped two of them into her soaked pussy.

Moaning loudly, she watched Yukio speed up her fingers in time in response; she was getting off listening to Ellie moan. Well, she always tried to give Yukio what she wanted, so she let go of any restraint she still had and let her voice ring out in pleasure, filling the room and almost covering the sound of flesh striking flesh, the ringing of Kuro clapping her cheeks still audible over her desperate moans.

Feeling Kuro speed up again, her eyes widened as her mouth dropped open, her next climax approaching at record speed, a scream escaping her as she clenched down on his shaft; as she did, Kuro seemingly went wild, throwing gentleness out of the window as her arms failed her, falling face down ass up on the bed, unable to do anything but take it as he railed into her mercilessly, losing track of how long she'd spent like that, it was easier to count the orgasms he was forcing on her than to try keeping track of time.

Somewhere between climax four and five, he thrust forwards with an almost feral grunt, her eyes widening as she felt her insides being flooded with a seemingly endless wave of cum.

As he pulled out of her with a satisfied groan, he turned her around again, propping her upright with her back to the headboard before he grabbed Yukio, pushing Yukio's head between her legs and pushed into her soiled pussy as Yukio looked up at her with wide eyes. She didn't miss that Kuro was moving behind Yukio, his cock slapping against her ass.

"Get licking Yukio; I want her clean and ready for round two when I'm done with you," Kuro ordered with an almost harsh tone as he spanked Yukio's pale booty hard, Yukio's tongue immediately getting to work lapping at her sore, abused slit. As Yukio began to clean her up, she watched Kuro line himself up with Yukio's own pussy and, with no hesitation, sheathe himself fully inside her, making Yukio let out a scream into Ellie's pussy.

Looking into Kuro's eyes, she felt her face grow hot at the domineering look in his eyes. They weren't escaping until he was finished with them, and she couldn't bring herself to regret a single thing.

"You filthy trait-" he started, being cut off as eldritch black magic binding and gagging him, the scum finishing her binding spells.

"Enough out of you, Nicodemus; you've served your purpose," Selene said as she dragged him into what was clearly a ritual circle despite his best efforts to free himself, his strength fading due to her magic.

"What are you playing at, Selene? You can't kill us. We'll simply return; all you're doing is making enemies," Absalom tried, attempting to reason with the crazed bitch, simply making her smirk.

"Oh, don't be such a fool; I didn't live this long by being short-sighted. I may not be able to kill you permanently, but I don't need to. You fools are nothing more than a gift; Death has a new agent and a new list. I intend to buy myself off her hit list, no matter the cost," Selene explained with a cruel smirk. He felt his blood run cold as he felt his powers be drained from him. They'd return in time, but if Selene was planning on handing him over to the newest Agent of Death, then time was the one thing he didn't have anymore.
