Time passes in Japan as days had gone by after the double date that Kira had with both Lacus and Meiya. On one morning on the 23rd of a friday. At the Hibiki Household that is now located in a vast barren land.
Kira is found asleep in his bedroom before he slowly stirs awake when he hears the sound of his alarm clock ringing loudly. The young man reaches a hand and searches for the alarm before he found it then presses the snooze button.
He groans while getting up from his bed and then scratches the back of his head before yawning a bit loudly.
Kira yawns again before he adjusted his loosened shirt and then turns to look out the window to see the vast view of the barren land.
"I won't ever get used to it.." Kira whispers as he has been adjusting his life to the sight of the barren land for a week and he still can't get used to seeing it at all.
Afterwards, Kira get out of his bed and proceeded to go to the bathroom to freshened himself up.
In the bathroom, the shower was turned on as rains of water droplets comes barraging down upon Kira's head. The young man taking a shower as he lets his hair wet from the water before he begins to rustle it around with both hands.
"day by day, week by week, and month by month…" Kira whispers as he combs his wet hair up and enjoys the feeling of warm water coming down on his face. "I wonder if I'm going to ever get used to this life?"
Kira takes a shampoo bottle, squirts a small amount of the content to his palm, and then began to foam it up while cleaning his hair. He began to hum a bit as he cleans himself up for the morning; not knowing that someone had entered in the bathroom with the door sliding so quietly when opened and then closed.
"now where's that back scrubber?" Kira said as he had his eyes closed because of the shampoo foam that is running down his face with the water from the shower that rinses it off. He reaches out a hand to the side in searching for the item he requires. "I thought I put it here?"
"Here you go, Kira." Meiya's voice is heard as the back scrubber was given to Kira by the girl who is now in the bathroom with only a bath towel on her.
"thanks." Kira said as he takes the item and squirts some body soap on it before he uses it to scrub his back. "I thought it had fallen or something."
"no, you just put it too far." Meiya said before she smiles. "can I help you clean yourself?"
"uh? If you can, I guess…" Kira spoke out as he was scrubbing his back before he pauses when his mind finally realized something he realized very late. "eh?"
"I'm not that good at cleaning another person since Tsukuyomi always help bathe me when I was little…" Meiya said as she went and takes the back scrubber from Kira and proceed to scrub his back with it. "but I believe I can start learning with you."
Kira is quiet as his face is slowly turning red when he finally realized that Meiya is somehow in the bathroom with him, even though he had locked the door.
"how is this, Kira?" Meiya asks while scrubbing his bubbled up back. The girl looking at Kira who is looking very red while his head slowly turns to look at her. "Kira?"
"WHY ARE YOU HERE!?" Kira's voice is heard screaming in the bathroom that had the door slammed open and shut when the young man came out with only a towel around his waist. He then scrammed to the other bathroom in the house which is his parent's personal one in their bedroom that his half-brother Canard is occupying.
After Kira scrammed off, Meiya opens the door to the bathroom and peeks her head out while frowning.
"I was just trying to help him bathe…" Meiya said before looking confused. "did I perhaps scrub his back too hard?"
About ten minutes later, Kira comes down from the second floor as he wears his school uniform on.
"of all the things….." Kira whispers as he adjusted the collar and then the sleeves of his uniform. he arrives downstairs and could hear come commotion coming from the dining room. Hearing the noise, he could only sigh. "and another day, another headache…"
Now at the dining table and eating breakfast prepared by Tsukuyomi; Kira and Cagalli eats as peaceful as they can be while Lacus and Meiya eats while giving each other snide yet polite comments against the other.
"oh my, such disrespect…" Lacus spoke out with a fake surprised expression. "to think that Meiya-san would try to forcibly bathe with Kira. How could you try to force such things to Kira? you're invading his personal space and making him discomforted~. So bad of you, Meiya-san."
"my, what are you saying?" Meiya replied with her own fake surprised face. "I didn't force Kira, I asked his permission beforehand and therefore it's not by force." She then made a proud smug smile. "and also, I didn't discomfort him at all. I merely helped him bathe by washing his back. That is what I wanted to do in helping him have a better hygiene."
"if you wish to help him get better hygiene, I suggest you stop trying to make any advances to him." Lacus retorted back with a smile. "after all, his hygiene is at risk because of unwanted body contact, correct?"
"perhaps the unwanted body contact comes from a stranger instead?" Meiya return the retort.
Kira is now used to hear the commotion from the dining room which is the result of a cat fight between Meiya and Lacus who had come into the home early to have breakfast with him. The pink diva would come in unannounced and entered into the home which leads to the Mitsurugi Zaibatsu's heir to deny her entry but considering that Cagalli allowed her in and that she has more power in the house; the navy-ish blue haired teen could only become frustrated in the end.
"unwanted? Oh my, are you implying to yourself?" Lacus asks. "I mean, you came intruding into Kira's home before and tried to slept on the same bed with him, yet that resulted in him being frightened in the morning…" she shakes her head and looks at Meiya with a disapproving and pitying expression on her face. "to think that you are aware of your shortcomings…"
"shortcomings? Don't you mean my greatness?" Meiya asks with a smirk while placing a hand to her chest. "I mean, Kira is comforted by my body in his sleep." She then looks at Lacus' especially to her chest that is smaller in size compared to hers. "and I doubt yours could give such comfort to him."
"Whether or not my body could give such comforts, it doesn't matter." Lacus said as she turns and smiles very sweet and lovingly towards Kira who flinched a bit. "I will do my very best to make Kira happy no matter what."
Kira just awkwardly nods his head, the young man trembling in fear because Lacus has an ominous pink aura surrounding her body; possibly because she is irritated by what Meiya had just said.
"ho~? You will try your best to make Kira happy no matter what?" Meiya smirks in a smug way. "I find that impossible considering that you could not provide him throughout the time since you first arrive to school." She tilts her head and sent a superiority stare at Lacus. "I provided Kira with anything that he wishes to have and I will not hesitate to even sacrifice my life for him. What can you do to make him happier?"
"I believe I can make him happier considering that someone had once forcibly fed him sushi that he disliked." Lacus said and this made Meiya irked a bit.
"Sushi doesn't count at all! I give Kira everything that I will get for him! You can't do anything at all!" Meiya exclaimed after slamming a hand to the table and then getting up from her seat to stare down at Lacus. "face it! Kira loves me more than you!"
"I will not!" Lacus did the same action as she slammed a hand to the table and then gets up to stare or glare back at Meiya. "if Kira really loved you, why has he not tried to do anything intimate with you!? I have kissed him twice! And he returned that kiss with all of his love! Face the truth! Kira loves me more than you!"
This topic between the two is about how one is trying to mock and lower the other's position that is going back and forth multiple times.
"stop them, Kira." Cagalli told Kira before biting down on a piece of chicken karage in one bite. "they're fouling the mood."
"I can't stop them before, I can't stop them now." Kira replied before he sips his morning green tea.
Kira stopped trying to do anything in between the two girls' catfight a while ago. He learns that each time he tried to stop either of the two; he gets the end of the short stick that landed him in a possible struggle where his arms get pulled apart like a ragdoll.
"um, Kira-sama. If you don't stop this, I believe that you all will be late for school…" Tsukuyomi spoke to Kira while standing behind him and Cagalli while watching the banter between Lacus and Meiya going back and forth with her three maid subordinates. "like the day before?"
"have you forgotten the last time I tried to do so, Tsukuyomi-san?" Kira asks the maid as a few days ago, he tried to stop the cat fight between Lacus and Meiya when the three met at a café; the two bantered on who gets to share a couple's drink with him and he tried to stop them but it ended with him having slapped on the face as they told him to move off.
"i-I see…" Tsukuyomi said with a sweatdrop as she sees the imagination bubble above Kira's head that retells the past incident in a chibi style.
"perhaps…." "we could just…" "get rid of the pink haired guest?" Kamiyo, Tomoe, and Ebisu made a suggestion while following up with each other's words. "we can do it if Meiya-sama wishes.."
In action, Kira takes out a long paper fan from underneath the dining table and then slaps the three maids' heads in unison.
"ow~!" they cried out in pain. "why, Kira-sama!?"
"in case you three had forgotten about what you did to Cagalli, let me remind you three while also warning you as well." Kira spoke before he turns and sends a glare at the three subordinate maids. "if you do anything to Lacus, my anger will be the least of your problems." He then glances at Tsukuyomi. "that goes the same for you too, Tsukuyomi-san. Do not ever do anything against Lacus, got it?"
Tsukuyomi could only nod and bowed her head in understanding while her three maid subordinates could only look scared because of Kira's glare.
Kira sighs a bit before he continues to eat his breakfast while trying his best to eat peacefully while the bantering catfight between Lacus and Meiya continues but ended when Canard came into the scene.
"hey, you two!" Canard shouted as he glares at Lacus and Meiya. "I don't give a fuck if you want to eat breakfast, lunch, or dinner here, but if you make a racket that I could hear upstairs; you two got another thing coming!" he then slams a fist to the wall nearby that cracked a bit. "finish eating here and get your ass off to school! Now!"
"y-yes!" Lacus and Meiya cried out in unison as Canard is the only person in the house who has the most power.
"you think we can ask him to stop the catfights 24/7?" Cagalli asks Kira in a whisper.
"I think we can?" Kira replied before he and Cagalli gets knocks on the heads by Canard. "ow!"
"what are you two whispering about?" Canard said as he looks irritated. "it's almost 7:15! Get your heads out of your dreamlands and get going!"
"r-right!" Kira and Cagalli cried out, the two quickly eating their breakfast and scurried off.
Sometime later, at Hakuryo High school. Kira and the others arrived into their classroom as they entered and finds the students gathering inside one by one.
"Morning, Cagalli." Miriallia greeted the blonde as the brunette was with Athrun and they were talking before Cagali came in with Kira and the others. "how is the morning routine?"
"the usual." Cagalli said before she sighs and sits down on her desk. "though my half big brother went and stopped the usual cat fight before it could've progressed."
"by yelling at them, I assume?" Athrun asks and Cagalli nodded in reply.
"but something tells me that the yelling didn't quite do the job." Miriallia said as the three turns to look at Kira who is in a very awkward position because of how Lacus and Meiya are sending each other electrical challenging glares that leads him being in the middle of the cross fire.
"yeah, it definitely didn't do the job well." Cagalli said.
"hey, Cagalli-san." Sumika called out as the girl came to the blonde's seat with Takeru beside her. "got a moment?"
"what is it?" Cagalli asks.
"the thing is, you guys' house is at the center of the barren field, right?" Sumika asks with an awkward smile while pointing her index fingers together in front of her chest. "and that your house got a mansion behind it as well?"
"y-yeah…what about it?" Cagalli asks, looking a bit unnerved.
After the whole incident of a large cubic meter of the neighborhood being cleared out by Meiya's company, there's a talk about how it's like the end of the world, or a foreign nation is setting its mark on Japan or etc. it's the talk on the entire part of Japan itself.
"you see, my house along with Sumika's along with a few other buildings at a distance are the only place left." Takeru stated in while holding a hand up. "it's now very hard to get groceries because our usual place is gone and all."
"i-I see.." Cagalli said before looking confused. "but why are you telling me this?"
"well, considering that your Kira's sister and Kira is the person who has a relationship with Meiya-san and Lacus-san…" Sumika said before she and Takeru motions their hands towards the internal mind cat fight between Lacus and Meiya. "we thought we could ask you a favor to send our request."
Cagalli sweatdrops as she just got designated as the middle man.
"I'll try in someway or another." Cagalli said before the bell rings as Marimo-sensei comes into the class to start homeroom. "I'll talk to them after class."
"stand! And bow!" Chizuru called out as everyone followed her action and Marimo-sensei began the class homeroom.
Some time later, the school bell rings for the break. Students prepped to go out of their classrooms and head out to get lunch.
Kira was ready to leave with Lacus to join Athrun and the others in another group meet up at the school rooftop when Meiya suddenly or abruptly pulled him away when he exited the classroom with the others.
"Kira! you shall have lunch with me!" Meiya exclaimed with a very determined look on her face. "not with that woman!"
"h-hey! Meiya-san!" Kira looks very surprised to her sudden pull as Meiya drags him away. "w-wait!"
"Kira!" Lacus tried to get him back but Tsukuyomi and her three subordinates went and made a wall to block her. "wha?"
"apologies, Miss Lacus." Tsukuyomi said while bowing her head. "Meiya-sama wishes to have today's school lunch break with Kira-sama today. Therefore I cannot allow you to join them."
"That is correct!" the three maid subordinates exclaimed in unison while nodding their heads twice.
"not this stuff in school…" Cagalli said after sighing as she was tired of such shenanigans at her home that has now followed to the school.
"Kira-sama shall return to class after the break is over, so please be patient." Tsukuyomi said while in the background, Meiya drags Kira into a room with herself before the three maid subordinates quickly joined in. "if you have any messages to give to Kira-sama or Meiya-sama, I'll be happy to forward it to them."
"with this type of thing, I'll doubt it'll end well." Miriallia said with an awkward look on her face as she sees the pink deadly aura that is arising around Lacus' body. "for anyone."
"without a doubt, this will end in no one's victory." Athrun said before sighing.
In the separate room in school, Kira is found sitting by a fancy dinner table as Meiya sat across from him.
"um…where are we?" Kira asks as he looks around and see how the room didn't felt like one that belongs to the school considering that there're fancy dinner lights and furniture and everything alike in the current room.
"this is a private room that the school had kindly rented to me and you." Meiya said with a smile. "a special place for the both of us~!"
"i-I see…" Kira looks more awkward as he was sure that the room wasn't rented at all.
As Kira was wondering what is going on with the current situation, Tsukuyomi and her maid subordinates came near his side.
"what shall you wish to dine for this afternoon, Kira-sama?" Tsukuyomi asks. "we have top chefs ready to prepare top cuisines from all around the world."
"Japanese?" "Chinese?" "indian?" the three maids offered suggestions one by one while holding little flags of the countries that they named. They then held a flag of America. "or perhaps American food?"
"i-I think I'll stick with Japanese." Kira said with an awkward smile. "and I'll stick with my bento.."
"very well." Tsukuyomi said with a nod before she pulls out a large cloth covered bento box from out of nowhere and proceeded to place variety of high cuisine Japanese dishes for him and Meiya. "please enjoy your meal with Meiya-sama, Kira-sama."
"please enjoy~!" "every single~!" "bite~!" the three maids chimed in while tying a bib around Kira's neck, placing a cloth on his lap, and giving him a pair of spoon and fork.
"let's dine in, Kira~!" Meiya said with a happy smile while Kira chuckles awkwardly.
"r-right…" Kira said, mentally calling for help from anyone.
Meanwhile at the school's rooftop, Lacus and the others have gathered there for the usual meeting, but it's a bit tense considering that the pink diva is oozing out pinkish red aura of anger and jealousy while eating her bento meal.
"I don't want to ask at all." Dearka said as everyone is taking a small distance away from Lacus. "seeing her like that and seeing that Kira ain't here, just makes the answer very obvious as to what had happened."
"definitely." Shiho nodded in agreement.
"of all the things to happen nowadays." Yzak said after sighing before he looks at Athrun. "hey, Athrun. Is Yamato with that Mitsurugi woman right now?"
"yeah." Athrun nodded. "he got dragged by her into a room for lunch, I think?"
"forcibly dragged, you mean." Cagalli corrected him.
"whichever it is, Kira is taken by Meiya-san and Lacus is very unpleased about it." Miriallia said as everyone sees how Lacus' aura flared at the mention of the little incident beforehand. "Very unpleased."
"so I think it's best we just leave that part out." Dearka said while opening the plastic of a sandwich he had in his hands. He takes a bite and chews before looking at Cagalli's direction. "so? How is the life at the total barren land?"
"you think it's fun?" Cagalli said after sighing before placing a hand to her head. "not only do I have to get used to the cat fight between the two, I got to handle people whose houses are left at the barren land. They keep asking me about being the middle man to talk to Meiya and everything about the discomfort of having no access to their usual mall and stuff." She sighs again before opening her bento and taking a bite of her rice. "it's a totally tiresome life."
"now that you mention it, only Miss Lacus' apartment along with Shirogane Takeru and Kagami Sumika's homes are the only ones left at the very area, right?" Shiho asks while holding her opened water bottle near her lips. "there's also a few residents who didn't sell their houses as well, right?"
"mine being one of them." Yzak said as he took a few bites of his chicken karaage and then chews. "those people at the Mitsurugi corp offered tons of money to my mother who refuses." He sighs. "it's such a hassle that nowadays those people keep on coming while offering things from money to the luxury of living at a five star hotel."
"e-eh? Really?" Miriallia asks with a surprised look on her face.
"I would've taken that offer if I were you." Dearka said after whistling but he then smirks a bit. "but I guess I wouldn't do the same considering how much money I got saved up."
"what do you mean by that?" Athrun asks.
"with how this world's technology being a bit primitive and all, I did some open network trading with digital credits and…" Dearka said before he takes out a brand new American smartphone. "I made lots of money to my hands on this baby."
"wait, you mean you used up money that is your monthly allowance money…" Miriallia spoke out with a bewildered face.
"and multiplied it by doing online trading?" Cagalli finishes. "to buy a smartphone?"
"yup." Dearka said with a grin.
"it's probably a million only." Yzak said while opening his drink canister. "it's nothing to be bragged about."
"can you say that after seeing this number in my bank account?" Dearka asks while holding out a bank account book that he opens and shows to Yzak who checks it and instantly did a spit take on his drink from seeing the amount saved in the tanned man's bank account. "see? See this number?"
"let me see that!" Miriallia said as she takes the bank account book and looks at it with Cagalli and the others. The group minus instantly jawdropped at the number. "just how many zeroes is this!? Ten?! Twelve!?"
"fifteen." Dearka said as he takes the bank account book back and pocketed it, he then looks rather smug. "I've got quadrillion amount of money with me."
"q-q-quadrillion!?" Miriallia and the others spoke in unison as they couldn't believed just how much money Dearka had made.
"not even my father can make that amount of money…." Athrun said in pure shock.
"D-Dearka! Teach me how to do it!" Miriallia cried out. "there's a new camera I've been wanting to buy but I still got to save up money! Please teach me!"
"I-I as well!" Shiho cried out. "my father and mother had tasked me in using my own money to feed the pet dogs in my house! My allowance dries up before I even know it!"
"I can teach you guys, if you worship me." Dearka said, even more smug than before.
"please teach us, oh great tradesman!" Shiho and Miriallia bowed to him with no shame as they just want to get the radiance of money from him.
"y-you two…." Athrun sweatdrops before he become surprised when Cagalli joins them. "you too, Cagalli!?"
"I got my eyes on a motorbike I want to buy! I already got my driver's license and everything, but I don't got enough money to buy it!" Cagalli cried out. "please teach me how to make money too, Dearka!"
"don't you got the Mitsurugi company's heir backing for that?" Yzak said while raising an eyebrow. "couldn't you ask them for the money?"
"you think I want to ask money from the person who gives me headaches daily?" Cagalli pointed out and this made Athrun and Yzak sweatdrop.
"very well! I shall help you all!" Dearka said before he magically takes out several bank account books from out of nowhere. "I knew that you all would worship me, therefore I took the liberty to make several bank accounts in your names and have already deposited a very fair amount for you all."
Everyone minus Lacus got a bank account book, they checked the number of money saved in the account and they instantly look shocked till they jawdropped because they got a million or more in it.
"all hail Dearka~! All hail Dearka~!" Cagalli and the others bowed to Dearka who laughs all smugly.
"this guy…" "he's really getting into things like this." Athrun and Yzak said as they look at Dearka who is somehow shining in radiance. 'I think this might somehow end up very bad in the future…'
As this little comedic scene continues, Lacus is still radiating her ominous pink aura.
'that woman uses her power to take hold of Kira…' Lacus' eyes flares in pink fire as she is hatching up a plan to get Kira back from Meiya. 'be prepared, Kira. I will save you from that woman, even if I have to wage war against her own company!'
About a few hours later, school was over for the day as students started to go home or get ready for their club activities for the day.
By the school's front entrance, Kira and the usual company plus Meiya yet minus Lacus are heading home as neither of them had club activities for the day.
"I'm going to get that motorbike and give it a good ride at the field!" Cagalli said with sparkling eyes and an excited grin. "this is definitely the good side of having a field to run a motorbike all freely!"
"ah~! My camera of my dreams~! I finally get to have you~!" Miriallia said as she rubs her cheeks against a pamphlet that shows a sale for many variety of electronic devices; the expensive one being a camera that is circle with a red marker. "I'm going to take such good care of you!"
"I need to get three months' worth of dog food and snacks for myself. Maybe I should also get that new wristwatch from the mall." Shiho is checking her phone as she is making a list of things to buy. "carrying this many would be a hassle. Perhaps they can do instant deliveries?"
The three are having the time of their life as they got the money from Dearka who is just having a good time cause he is listening to some music with the headset attachment of his phone.
"These guys are really getting into it, huh?" Athrun said as he and Yzak are being normal of the situation.
"I've heard that greed blinds the eyes of many, but this is beyond ridiculous." Yzak stated.
As this conversation goes, Kira is looking very confused as he received a short explanation story from Athrun that Cagalli and the others got millions amount of money from Dearka. He also got a bank account book as well, he was very surprised to see the amount of money he received.
"Kira~! should we go to the mall before going home?" Meiya asks Kira as she is beside Kira and hugging his right arm to her chest. "I've heard that there's a couple's only event being held there~! Let's go there together!"
"r-right.." Kira said before he took a quick glance to the school's doorways, he was wondering why Lacus didn't join them as he knew that she didn't have any club activities or anything. He was just being worried about her after hearing that she wasn't joining them. "I guess we can?"
"really? That's great~!" Meiya said with a big smile before she looks to the side. "Tsukuyomi! Make arrangements for immediate transport with Takahashi!"
"yes!" Tsukuyomi appeared out of the shadows like a ninja before taking out a walkie talkie from under her apron. "Takahashi-san? Meiya-sama wishes to take Kira-sama to the mall for a couple's only event. Please arrive to the school's front gate immediately."
A buzz is heard from the radio as Tsukuyomi made a confused noise.
"that's strange? Takahashi-san usually replies in a second?" Tsukuyomi whispers, looking very confused.
As Tsukuyomi called for Takahashi again, everyone arrived to the front gate as they bid goodbye to one another.
"good luck surviving another date with her, Kira." Dearka said as everyone else got their own plans for the day and didn't want anything to do with Kira's date.
Kira could only awkwardly chuckle in response before he tilts his head down and sigh in defeat as he wasn't going to have any relaxing time anywhere.
"let's have another fun date, Kira~!" Meiya said as she looks all happy.
"y-yeah…let's…" Kira replied all tiredly before he made a noise and looks down the road as every other students nearby turns towards the sound of screeching tires that is coming from one part of the nearby road. "what's that?"
Everyone looks at the source of the sound as they look at one road that leads to the school which is releasing a trail of dust and smoke behind it.
"what's that?" Miriallia asks while trying to see what could be making the sound.
"a car?" Cagalli guessed. "or is it a motorbike?"
"nah, the sound is too loud for it to be a motorbike." Dearka said, shaking his head while taking off one of his phone's earphone to hear the sound better. "this sounds like a heavy duty car or something."
"a heavy duty car?" Athrun asks. "like a military vehicle?"
"fool, why would there be a military vehicle in this town?" Yzak retorted.
As everyone was trying to guess what the source of the noise is, the dust cloud soon reveals itself to be a military jeep that has Andrew Waltfeld driving it.
"Commander Waltfeld!?" Shiho exclaimed in surprise. "why is he here!?"
The military jeep runs through the asphalt road like it was on fire, the vehicle going straight very fast.
As Andrew was driving, he held a hand to do a signal to someone beside him as it is revealed that Martin DaCosta was on the passenger seat and slowly sat up from his seat while holding up a grenade launcher.
"w-wait! Does that guy have a grenade launcher in his hands!?" Dearka exclaimed as everyone looks a bit panicked to see the weapon. "why the hell does he have a grenade launcher with him!?"
DaCosta checks and then aims the weapon straight to the school as many students panicked and started to run when the man pulled the trigger and fired several canister shots into the air where they left a trail of white smoke.
"run!" Yzak exclaimed as everyone just runs from the incoming grenade canisters that dropped to the ground and spins around while unleashing white gas everywhere.
Everyone just keeps on going away from the smoke, thinking that it was poison gas or tear gas, but it's just normal smokescreen gas.
"what is Andrew-san thinking!?" Kira held a part of his uniform to cover his nose and mouth while Meiya is coughing a bit as she held her hands to her face in covering her nose and mouth from inhaling too much of the smoke. "using a smokescreen here!?"
The military jeep soon came to a screeching halt as Andrew skillfully swivels the wheels and turns the body position of his vehicle that allowed DaCosta to quickly come down and fired another shot from his grenade launcher that fired a net canister that catches Kira.
"Kira!" Meiya cried out before coughing from the smoke as she tries to find Kira but the gas was getting too thick for her to see. "Kira!"
"Meiya-sama! Please remove yourself from the smoke! It's too dangerous!" Tsukuyomi repeatedly fans her surroundings with the help of her three maid subordinates who appeared while carrying big paper fans.
"wha?! Hey!?" Kira struggles in the net before he gets carried into the jeep by DaCosta in one swift movement. "w-wait a minute! DaCosta-san!"
"capture complete, Andrew-san!" DaCosta reported to Andrew as he got back to the side passenger seat.
"alright! Moving out!" Andrew exclaimed before he shifts gears and steps on the gas to make his jeep's wheels spins fast and drove out of the smokescreen.
As time goes by, the smokescreen is blown away and visibility returns to people at the school.
"just what the heck was that!?" Cagalli exclaimed as she and the others were checking out the situation after running out of the smokescreen. "like, who the heck carries and fires smokescreen canisters with a grenade launcher in a damn town!?"
"Commander Waltfeld would've been your guy for that." Shiho said while coughing a bit as she had inhaled some of the smokescreen's gas. "that man was known for doing the craziest of things during the war."
"no kidding." Dearka added in.
"why the heck he did that with his lieutenant?" Yzak asks before he looks at Athrun. "i've only known that man through several missions in the past, but he wouldn't do something crazy without a reason."
"definitely." Athrun nodded before he looks at the trail of smoke which is Andrew's jeep that is running off into the distance. "but I got the feeling that the reason would be for him to have received an order from someone."
"from someone?" Miriallia asks. "you mean he did it because he was ordered to do so?"
"by who?" Shiho asks. "in this world, Commander Waltfeld doesn't work for ZAFT, but for Miss Lacus' company and…."
By then, their minds instantly got the idea on what was going on.
"right….he works for Miss/Lacus' company.." they spoke in unison before they turned to look at where Meiya is, the woman coughing out the smoke she inhaled before she looks at the jeep that vanishes into the distance.
"to think that she would planned this…" Meiya said before she looks very irritated to the point her hair begins to flutter around from the fiery blue flaming aura around her body. "that wretched woman!" she got up and unsheathes her clothed katana in one single movement. "Tsukuyomi!"
"Yes! Meiya-sama!" Tsukuyomi came to her side with her subordinates as they kneeled before her. "what is your wish, Meiya-sama?!"
"prepare for an attack!" Meiya exclaimed. "that woman has abducted Kira! prepare our troops to raid her dwelling and save him!"
"yes! As you wish!" Tsukuyomi replied while bowing her head as she and her maid subordinates soon disappeared in a flash like ninjas.
"be prepared you wretched fiend!" Meiya exclaimed as she bursts in blue flames and then drew out her sword while imagining Lacus as a succubus who has a chibi Kira in her embrace. "I shall slay you and take Kira back!"
Meiya soon started to ramble more about how she will take Lacus down and in the background, Athrun and the others could only watch from the sidelines.
"This would definitely not end well." They spoke in unison.
They all looked at Meiya for a moment in silence before Dearka breaks it.
"Anyone up for a trip to the mall to have fun and shop then hang out at my new place I just bought recently?" Dearka asks and everyone nodded in unison.
Meanwhile with Kira, he was struggling with the net before he gets set free by Lacus who helped him.
"Lacus! What's going on here!?" Kira asks, very shook after the whole situation at the school. "why did you guys abduct me!?"
"not abduct." Lacus said with a smile. "just taken in for a trip."
"a trip?" Kira said confused. "what trip?"
"to my apartment home, silly." Lacus said with a smile. "you'll be staying a day and two nights there."
"eh? Why?" Kira looks more confused and somewhat scared as Lacus' smile somehow felt a bit forced and fake.
"well…" Lacus place a finger to her chin and looks up to think of an answer before she just giggles and smiles to Kira. "let's just say, it's a secret."
"i-I'm somehow scared…" Kira said while looking a bit blue.
"hey, Princess! We're being followed!" Andrew called out as Lacus and Kira looks at the man before they turned and see a Mitsurugi corp's standard's limo following their jeep while accompanied by motorbike racers, and even helicopters.
"t-this is….unbelievable." Kira said with a sweatdrop behind his head, the young man can't believe the forces that are chasing them. "did Meiya…?"
"you there! Cease your vehicle's advancements at once!" Meiya's voice is heard echoing from above as Kira and Lacus looks up to see the Mitsurugi heir riding on a helicopter that Tsukuyomi is piloting alongside her subordinates. "I demand you to stop your vehicle and release your hostage! This is your only warning!"
"y-you've got to be kidding me…" Kira's eyes twitches as he was sure that Meiya got no real common sense of anything.
"what should we do, young Miss?" DaCosta asks Lacus. "if this is their pursuing forces, I believe that they would have a defense force before us."
"smokescreen, DaCosta-san." Lacus stated to Martin before she looks at the driver of the jeep. "Andrew-san, I believe you can get them off our tails, correct?"
"I sure can." Andrew nodded with a smile while DaCosta reloads the smoke canisters on the barrel of the grenade launcher. He grips his hold on the steering wheel and the gear shift. "DaCosta-san! Give me a good amount of smokescreen, you hear!?"
"I know!" DaCosta said as he got out of the passenger window and aims his grenade launcher at the pursuing forces. "fire!"
DaCosta fired all the smoke canisters on his grenade launcher as he fired a lot to the point that the smokescreen gasp filled up everywhere.
Meiya saw this as she sits back in the helicopter to watch how the smoke is rising up to the air.
"I shall ascend the helicopter from the smoke, Meiya-sama." Tsukuyomi said as she turns and then ascends the helicopter's height from the smokescreen that was just large and spreading everywhere.
Andrew grips and shifts the gear of his jeep then did a hard turn spin of his vehicle that made a quick turn to the right as this cause his passengers to shift with it.
"t-this is a bit dangerous, don't you think!?" Kira cried out as he was close with Lacus who he held close as they hanged on to the shifting vehicle.
"just hang on and don't talk!" Andrew exclaimed as he did another quick turn to another part of the road as to escape the motorbike racers and limo that are still after them. "if you don't stop talking, you'll bite your damn tongue off! Just get in your seatbelts and think of this as an exciting roller coaster ride!"
"a roller coaster ride doesn't have a damn army force chasing after it!" Kira cried out while Lacus giggles and leans closer to him, being happy that the young man is holding her in a protective yet warmth embrace during the situation.
The jeep runs off to a corner and then literally jumps off a long set of stairs.
Kira could only scream as he and Lacus nearly got out of the jeep while it flew before making an abrupt landing that nearly shook them all up. The pursuers tried to chase after them but with the stairs being steep, they just got fumbled around.
The chase goes on as there is no telling how long it will last.
About an hour later, at Lacus' apartment.
The military jeep came into the parking space while the gate was automatically closed from inside as dozens of armed security guards came marching around the vehicle.
"mission accomplished, boys." Andrew spoke out as he undo his seatbelts and comes out of his jeep before meeting with a security guard who came and saluted to him and then gave him a clipboard that he checks out. "make sure to keep our territory both on land and sky clean from the Mitsurugi faction."
"Sir, Yes sir!" the security guards complied in unison before moving out to do their tasks at hand.
While Andrew watches the security guards leave, Kira and Lacus exited the vehicle as DaCosta had come out and opened the door for them.
"just what is going on here?" Kira asks as he sees the security guards are now manning all areas around Lacus' apartment in a tight guard as there are even guards on the balcony of the apartment and manning what he sees to be anti air rifles and missiles. "just what in the world?"
"come now, Kira." Lacus said as she went and hugged his right arm close to her chest. "let's go and settle in my room."
"uh?" Kira was about to reply but Lacus takes and leads him to the apartment's main door. "uh, Lacus?"
"good day." Lacus greeted the front door's officers as both saluted and then bowed to her before the two then opened the door by swiping security cards to the panel locks. She then looks at Kira with a smile. "come inside, Kira."
"uh…" Kira looks a bit awkward and uncomfortable because of the level of security, but he decided to not ask and just go right in with her. "o-okay?"
As they went in with the door closing behind them, many guards suddenly formed around the front door and guard it tightly.
In an elevator of the apartment, Kira and Lacus are inside as they are waiting for the lift to reach to its designated floor which is the very top floor.
The mood in the elevator was silent as there's not a conversation between Kira and Lacus, the young man not knowing what to talk but the girl he love is just humming while leaning close to him.
"um…Lacus?" Kira spoke out as he looks at Lacus who hums in return while looking back at him. "so, um. How are the tenants in this apartment with you?"
"the tenants?" Lacus said in confusion.
"I mean, you've rented this apartment's top floor's room, right?" Kira asks. "so do you have good neighbors with you? Like anyone who could always come to help you or has there been anyone who tried to bother you or…"
"what are you saying, Kira?" Lacus asks after blinking her eyes twice in confusion. "I'm the only tenant of this apartment, you know?"
"eh? The only one?" Kira asks and Lacus nods.
"this entire apartment is owned by my father and I'm the only tenant." Lacus said before smiling. "well, the other rooms are all used by the employees who keep me away from harm."
"i-I see…." Kira said, imagining Lacus on the top floor while the rooms below her are guards with guns; ready to attack anyone who attack the pink diva.
Soon the elevator made an electronic ding sound as it reached the top floor of the apartment.
"we're here." Lacus said as Kira watches the elevator door opened and he soon gasps in surprise because the door instantly leads to a wide and vast apartment floor that is decorated as an entire house in one go. "come on in."
Lacus leads Kira inside as he finds the place pink and white that suits his princess' color of choice, there's a living room across from the kitchen, a balcony that has plants and a small pool, several bedrooms, and two bathrooms as one of them had a hot tub in it.
"You live here?" Kira asks and Lacus nods in reply. "on your own?"
"Andrew-san or Martin-san would come up to check on me once every few days." Lacus said with a smile. "my father asks them to do so in order to give him a report of my wellbeing."
"I see." Kira nods as Lacus leads him to the balcony and to look at the distant view of the city that has the barren land below it. "if the town still had its buildings, it might be a good view."
"yes, but I believe…" Lacus went and leans close to him. "it would be a much better view if it's a field of flowers instead."
Kira thought about it and smiled to the idea as he really liked to see such a view.
"I might have to ask Meiya about that." Kira mumbled under his breath.
"what was that?" Lacus asks, barely able to hear what he had mumbled. "who do you wish to ask about?"
"u-um, Athrun! I was thinking of asking Athrun about the idea because his father's company is close with yours and that of the Mitsurugi Zaibatsu!" Kira cried out quickly. "so I thought he might be a good middle man to help ease the tension between you and Meiya, in order to get the field to be filled with flowers instead of it being barren and everything!"
Lacus looks at Kira a bit skeptically at first before she smiles and leans to him while hugging him.
"I guess that's a good idea." Lacus said and Kira sighs in relief to hear that. Their hug ended a moment later as the princess held her beloved man's arm close. "now, let me show you where you'll be sleeping tonight."
"eh? I'm really going to be sleeping here tonight?" Kira asks a bit bewildered. "but I need to get him or Cagalli or even my half brother Canard might be…"
"don't worry, I had Andrew-san and Martin-san inform them about your stay tonight." Lacus said and Kira sweatdropped to how fast she gave her reply to him.
"right…" Kira said before the balcony door was closed shut.
By the time they were inside, Kira and Lacus failed to notice the army of Mitsurugi Zaibatsu's limo cars that are driving straight for the apartment while being followed by tanks and helicopters that are armed.
But on one particular limo, Meiya appears standing on the roof with her sword at the ready.
"Be ready to falll, you wretched demon!" Meiya exclaimed, literally charging into the battle with her army.
Meanwhile at a shopping mall, it's a busy place for people to come in and see the stores to see what they wish to do which is either buying stuff or getting a service or anything alike.
In an electronics store, a store staff came out of the storage room with a box for a brand new digital camera that was brought and placed to a table in front of Miriallia who looks very excited.
"here you are, miss." The staff spoke while handing the item to Miriallia who giddily hugs it. "your brand new camera with all the requested features and add-ons."
"thank you~!" Miriallia thanked the store staff before she left the store all happy like a little kid getting a new toy during Christmas.
Miriallia hops and skips on her steps as she went straight to a nearby café's front area where there's Athrun, Yzak, and Dearka waiting by a large table.
"sorry for the wait~!" Miriallia said as she sat down and just smiles all happy. "I finally got my camera~!"
"you must've really wanted that, huh?" Athrun said while holding a glass of orange juice near his lips. "but are you even happy with it? This world's technology is a bit behind the time and that camera is considered old in our world, right?"
"I'm fine with it." Miriallia smiles. "I like old retro stuff."
"if that's really okay with you." Dearka added in as he was busy checking his new phone's applications before flipping the screen to show the image of a new camera. "by the way, there's a new version of that camera coming to this mall next month."
"what?! let me see!" Miriallia cried out as she grabs the phone and checks it out. "this is just like the old one my dad had back in our world! I need to get it!"
"didn't you say that you're okay with the retro?" Athrun sweatdrops.
"just let it be, Athrun." Yzak said as he then sips his lemonade.
As they were conversing, a loud engine roar sound was heard echoing as this made nearly everyone in the mall turn towards the source which is at local motorbike shop that has Cagalli inside.
Cagalli grins as she was testing out the one motorbike she has been wanting, she got permission to test the engine and everything as she literally played with the throttle nearly ten times before getting off with a very satisfied face.
"I'll take it!" Cagalli exclaimed with a big grin to the owner who is a large muscular and bearded man; he did a big thumb's up and nodded very proudly while his staff just looks amazed.
"looks like Cagalli got her dream bike." Dearka said before he looks at Yzak. "what about Shiho?"
Yzak merely pointed a thumb over his shoulder as Shiho is found near the area, the black haired teen being in a pet shop as she had purchased a large quantity of pet food and snacks and is currently filling a form for it to be delivered to her home.
"you need to put a limit to how much money you're going to share with the girls now and then, Dearka." Athrun said and Dearka merely shrugs his shoulders while smirking.
"um~!" a voice is heard nearby as Athrun and the others turns to see a bunch of Hakuryo school girls standing near their table and looking all giddy and anxious. "are you Athrun-san from Class 3-B~!?"
"I am." Athrun nodded with a confused look at the girls. "can I help you with something?"
"The thing is~!" the girls started to look all excited.
While this occurs, Cagalli exited the motorbike shop while twirling a motorbike's key on her right hand's index finger.
"finally got it~!" Cagalli grins before humming all happy. "I got to test it out tomorrow and see how that baby roars~!"
Cagalli walks straight for the café, but stops when she spots the crowd of girls fawning and going gaga over Athrun who looks a bit discomforted at their advances which consists of asking him about his schedule after school, his phone number, and even asking him out for a date or two.
As this occurs, Shiho came by while pocketing her purchase receipt.
"what's happening there?" Shiho asks while standing beside Cagalli and watching the scene. "girls from our school at our table? What are they there for?"
"that's besides the point." Cagalli spoke out and Shiho glances at the blonde before becoming surprised to see that the Atha Princess is looking very red in anger and jealousy. "That Athrun sure is having fun with them, huh~?"
"i-I don't think he's having any fun considering that those girls are…" Shiho spoke out but her voice trailed off when Cagalli rushes into the scene and began to scare the girls away before she went and started choking Athrun who is getting called "Playboy", "woman eater", and many more by the blonde. "never mind…"
"This is far more entertaining." Yzak said with a smirk as he watches Cagalli choke holds Athrun.
"you really got weird tastes in entertainment…" Miriallia said with a wince because Cagalli now began to pull Athrun's ears.
"makes me wonder if the entertainment of Kira and his two ladies are far more interesting than this." Dearka said before he held up a can of soda and drank a few sips. "I wonder what the guy is doing now?"
Back with Kira, the young man is currently in a very dreaded situation as he is in one of the bathrooms in Lacus' apartment room. The brunette is naked with only a towel around his waist, he is all sweaty because the room is warm and steamy from the hot tub that is filled to the brim with hot yet warm water.
"Why is this happening?" Kira asks before the glass door to the room slides open and Lacus comes in; the pink diva wearing a towel around her naked body and her hair tied in a bun that is held with a single pin.
"okay, Kira~! let's begin the bath~" Lacus said as she grabbed and carried a small bucket filled with shampoo, soap, and beauty products.
"r-right…" Kira replied as he was then placed down near a shower where he sat on a wooden stool while Lacus kneels behind him.
"first is your hair" Lacus said as she grabs the shower and turns on the faucet to wash Kira's hair with warm water. "soak them all up…" she stops and then grabs a pink shampoo bottle. "then the shampoo~!"
"L-Lacus…I can do this on my own and…" Kira said but Lacus proceeded to squirt some of the shampoo's pink liquid into her right hand's palm and then rubs it around with her other hand to make it all bubble and soapy before getting it all on his head, but in a rather forcibly matter. "u-um…Lacus?"
"don't move, Kira~" Lacus said as she soon smiles rather sweetly but ominous at the same time. "I need to wash every part of your body and make sure that no scent of that woman is ever sticking on you."
"y-yes…" Kira turns white as snow as he shakes in fear. The young man allowing himself to be cleaned by the pink diva who began to bubble up his hair while massaging his scalp. 'I'm never going to let myself be near Meiya if this what gets me in the end of the day~!'
After getting his hair all bubbled up, Lacus washes it all away with the shower head while running her fingers through the bubbles in making sure that there's not a spot left unwashed.
"and then the back." Lacus got the body soap bottle and squirts out a few drops that she started to bubble up with the help of a back scrubber. The pink diva proceeding to scrub the body soap onto Kira's back as she was cleaning every inch of it while humming. "washing~! Bathing~! Repeating~!"
'I hope that I can get home after staying here for two nights…' Kira thought as it was really embarrassing to have a girl bathe him especially when he's a teen. He had his eyes closed as he was trying to stay calm in the situation while Lacus was now scrubbing the bubbles and body soap to his arms now. 'this is beyond humiliating…'
As Kira was keeping his mind clear and his heart steady, Lacus went to clean his legs but all the while cleaning his chest which surprised him to the point he shrieked a bit.
"w-wait a second, Lacus! L-Let me do that part myself!" Kira cried out as he stops Lacus from going any further. "you don't need to do it for me!"
"why so?" Lacus asks before smiling sweetly. "don't worry, Kira. there's not one part of your body that I haven't seen already since I've taken care of you back at PLANT during the war."
Kira's face went red as he remembered how it was Lacus who took care of him after he had that battle to the death with Athrun in their Gundams.
"c-can you please not say that..?" Kira asks while looking a bit ashamed. "I'm a man and that hurts my self-esteem a bit."
"I see. My apologies." Lacus said with a few giggles before she gives the bubbled up back scrubber to him. "here."
"thank you." Kira said before he proceeded to clean his legs and then his chest along with his armpit as well.
Lacus watches Kira clean himself before she got a naughty idea that made her smile a bit mischievously.
"there." Kira said as he finished getting all parts of his body bubbled up. "Lacus, can you pass me the shower head so that I can…igh!?"
Kira's body instantly tensed and freezes up as he felt a pair of very soft marshmallows squished to his back. He felt that they were soft like marshmallows, but he also felt a pair of something small attached to them at the tip.
"how are they, Kira~?" Lacus whispers behind Kira's ears as the young man tenses up even more when he realized what is going on. "well? How are they?"
"L-L-Lacus…w-what are you?" Kira stutters before he tenses up once again when he felt the marshmallows started to move up and down as Lacus' arms slithers and holds around his chest in a hug. "L-Lacus!?"
"well, Kira~? they're nicer and better than Meiya-san's, right?" Lacus asks while moving her upper body up and down. "Hey~? Kira~?"
This is a well-known thing for couples around the world who are very intimately in love with one another, this is a technique for those who wish to have more deeper body touch with one another and for when it's in the bath; it is known as the breast rub and scrub.
Lacus kneels behind Kira as she had undone her towel to cover only below her waist while her breasts were freed and are just rubbing themselves upon the young man's bubbly soaped up back.
"L-Lacus? What are y-you…ih!?" Kira stuttered before he squeaks a bit when he felt Lacus' breasts just pressing themselves even more onto his back to the point he can feel and visualize her nipples that are hardening up. "L-Lacus!?"
"what am I doing? What else but helping you clean~?" Lacus whispers so sweetly into Kira's ears as the young man felt himself shivering because of how the princess was just sending warm air puffs that tickled his ears. "do you like it, Kira? do you like mine better than that woman?"
"w-well…I can't just say because…" Kira spoke out before squeaking when Lacus' hands placed themselves on his chest and gently rubs them around. "H-Hey! Lacus!"
"just be more honest, Kira~" Lacus whispers as she slowly got up to look at Kira's embarrassed face from the side before peeking down and smiling while giggling. "just like your little friend~"
Kira's face went very red as he instantly got out of Lacus' hug hold before diving right into the hot tub with a big splash.
"ara~" Lacus looks at the hot tub as Kira's head slowly pops out and he looks very embarrassed and red. The pink diva then giggles with a smile. "did I take it too far?"
After the little ecchi incident had gone and pass, Lacus and Kira are in the hot tub together. The young princess wearing her towel to cover herself and to ease her beloved man's mind from any little pervy stuff.
"you're mean, Lacus." Kira mumbled out in bubbles as he is still sunk deep in the hot tub's water with only half of his head poking out. "doing something like that…"
"my apologies…" Lacus giggles with a smile. "I couldn't help myself."
"With playing me?" Kira said as he made more bubbles. "that's just a bad thing.."
Lacus giggles before she went and gently got him to get out of the water then made him lean on the edge of the tub where she leans to him in a hug.
"perhaps it was a bad thing to do such a thing…" Lacus spoke out as she leans closer to Kira before she turns and smiles to him. "but I wanted to do it because of how much I love you, Kira."
Kira looks at Lacus for a moment before he blushes and looks away embarrassed.
"ara-ara~" Lacus giggles as she leans up and gives his right cheek a big kiss.
Afterwards, it's a normal bath time in the tub.
"having a hot tub is quite nice…." Kira whispers as he feels all warm and fuzzy while relaxing in the water.
"perhaps I can help built one in your house afterwards?" Lacus asks.
"better not…" Kira said with a sweatdrop as he imagined a possible cat fight between Lacus and Meiya; the latter would probably built an entire hot spring to outmatch the former's hot tub. "it's better to stick with what we have right now.."
"I see…" Lacus nodded in understanding before she smiles and went to the edge of the hot tub to a line of bath items as she traces a finger near each one before she pick out a pink ball. "there it is."
"what is that?" Kira asks before Lacus drops the ball into the hot tub that has its water slowly turning pink. "a bath bomb?"
"a sakura scented one." Lacus smiles as she went and scooped out some water with both hands then poured it down on Kira's shoulders one by one. "it smells good, right?"
"yeah…" Kira sniffs the scent and smiles to how good it smells. "it does."
"I've also got lavender, mint, lemon, and various others." Lacus said as she pointed to a basket filled with the said bath bombs. "wanna try them all?"
"better not, we can't stay in a hot tub for too long after all." Kira said, thinking how bad of a mess if they did such a thing.
As they continued to enjoy the hot tub, they suddenly heard a loud echo of an explosion.
"what the?" Kira looks at the ceiling's light and sees how it flickers a lot when the explosion was heard. He then sees that their hot tub water was swaying left and right, front and back, numerous times. "what's going on?"
"this is?" Lacus listens to the explosion before she hears the sound of loud machinery. "this sound is.."
In a minute later, a loud crashing sound was heard outside as this made the entire bathroom just shake terribly.
"w-what's going on!?" Kira cried out as he went and held Lacus close, thinking that it was an abrupt earthquake or something.
Afterwards, Kira and Lacus exited the bathroom with only their towels on and their bodies still wet. The two went outside and became flabbergasted at the sight of the apartment's balcony being destroyed and a large wrecking ball is stuck to it. But what could be more flabbergasting for them would be the appearance of Meiya who dons a blue samurai shogun armor outfit and wields a sheathed katana.
"M-Meiya?" Kira spoke as he instantly recognizes the blue haired teen who got down from the wrecking ball while unsheathing her katana.
"you fiendish succubus! Be ready to taste the steel of my blade!" Meiya exclaimed as she swung her katana to the side before pointing the blade at Lacus. "I have come to take Kira back!"
"Meiya-san, perhaps you didn't realize, but you are trespassing on my private property that you have wrecked." Lacus spoke out with a serious look on her face. "please leave this vicinity at once and also prepare the compensation for all the damages."
"do you believe you have the authority right now!?" Meiya exclaimed. "be lost with your property damage! I will take Kira back no matter the cost!"
"hey, Meiya! Put down your sword and stop this madness!" Kira exclaimed. "you're doing something crazy by riding a wrecking ball and destroyed Lacus' balcony! Just what were you thinking of doing something like that!?"
"I will do anything in my power to get you back from this seductress!" Meiya exclaimed as she got into a battle stance with her sword. "don't worry! Once I fell her with my blade, I'll personally escort you back home!"
"wait! Wait! Don't do that!" Kira exclaimed in a panic as he really didn't want a cat fight that could cause blood loss for anyone. "stop with the sword! Don't do anything with it!"
"perhaps you should let her, Kira." Lacus said and Kira looks at her surprised. "someone who lets their emotions get the best of their logical decision, would not be stopped no matter what reasoning." She then looks a bit smugly at Meiya. "after all, such a noble warrior like Meiya-san would stoop so low as to attack an unarmed individual."
Meiya growls angrily in return as Kira worried that Lacus might have provoked her too much.
"unarmed, is it?" Meiya said as she stood up straight and grabs a string on the side of her armor's waist. "well then! Let's even the playing field!" she clenched her hold on the string and then yanked it hard. "CAST OFF!" in a instant, her armor just bursts apart and leaves her naked like the day she was born. "how is this!?"
"HOW DID IT DO THAT?!" Kira exclaimed in shock before he quickly covers his eyes and looks away. "AND WHY ARE YOU NAKED UNDER ALL OF THAT ARMOR!?"
"this is the Mitsurugi special samurai armor that was made to my needs." Meiya said as she sheathes her katana and threw it to the side. "to face my enemy with my bare body will be enough!". she then folds her arms under her chest then lifts her bountiful breasts up to emphasize their size while smirking. "after all, my body is far more voluptuous and more mature for Kira's taste."
"Voluptuous? Don't you mean fat?" Lacus smirks back. "I've heard from Kira, you know? I know how you forced him to go on that date before by pressing your fat lumps on his face and nearly suffocating him." She then giggles while her eyes turns a bit dark and lifeless. "perhaps you should try going on a diet and see if it could help thinner yourself."
"perhaps you should mind your own business and start to try fattening yourself up?" Meiya returned as she eyed Lacus' body from head to toe. "after all, such a frail and skinny form cannot soothe Kira's needs."
"ara? You say that my body could not soothe Kira's needs when it already has when we were bathing together?" Lacus asks and this irked Meiya in an instant. "remember how Kira ran from you the moment you tried to bathe with him early morning? This just proves that my body is far more of Kira's type than yours."
"why you~!?" Meiya growls angrily before she went and got Kira to face her then got his hands down to make his eyes look at hers. "Kira! tell me the truth!"
"w-wha!? About what!?" Kira cried out while looking away with his eyes closed as Meiya was buck naked and it's embarrassing him too much. "and also! Put your clothes and armor back on! You're naked!"
"I don't care about that right now!" Meiya exclaimed. "tell me the truth and be honest, Kira! is my body not to your liking!? Are my breasts too big for your taste!?"
"hey! What are you saying?!" Kira cried out before he squeaks and gasps when Meiya forcibly got his hands to grope her breasts. "h-hey!"
"tell me! are they too big for you!? If they are, I'll get surgery to reduce their size till they are of your taste!" Meiya exclaimed while sounding very desperate. "I don't want you to be with that seductress! So please tell me how you would like me to be!? Would you like my breasts smaller!? Would you like them bigger!? Which is it!?"
"Meiya-san, that is far enough!" Lacus exclaimed as she got in and divided Kira from Meiya. "can't you see that you are troubling, Kira!? such a woman being desperate for a man's attention! Know some shame!"
"shut up! You fiend! You took him from me at school!" Meiya exclaimed as she got into a power struggle against Lacus. "I will take him back and then strike you down for doing such a thing!"
"then try your best because I will not let Kira go back to your cage of a house!" Lacus exclaimed as she is putting up a good struggle against Meiya. "Kira will be staying with me from now on! So go back to your home and stay there!"
"why you!" Meiya growls angrily as she started to struggle even more with Lacus whose towel got undone and fell in the commotion.
Kira was still looking away with his hands covering his face, the young man not wanting to look at the naked Meiya, but after hearing the commotion and the little fight going on, he is starting to get worried that either of the two might hurt each other too much.
"hey! Stop this!" Kira exclaimed with his eyes closed. "no fighting! So stop!"
He tried to yell at them to stop, but his attempts were futile as the two girls are on the floor and just wrestling with one another.
Kira no longer wishes for the fight continue, braces his determination and snaps his eyes open before turning around fast to face the two, not knowing that the towel around his waist got undone.
"enough! Both of you!" Kira shouted as loudly as possible as this got the two girls' attention in an instant. "no more fighting! If you two continue to fight, I'll leave this place and call on the police!"
This somehow works as Lacus and Meiya stopped fighting and are now just staring back at Kira with their eyes wide and their cheeks were flustered red.
"have you finally regained your senses!?" Kira said, thinking that he managed to get them to stop.
"um…Kira?" "your towel…" Lacus and Meiya spoke one after the other as this made Kira look at them confused.
"my towel?" Kira said before he looks down and became red as a tomato when he finally realized that his towel is on the floor and covering his feet while his junior is shown to the world while looking hard and strong. "agh~?!"
A moment of silence goes and passes in the room before Kira suddenly screams loudly and covers his nether region and then runs straight to the bathroom like a girl caught by a peeper.
Lacus and Meiya are left astounded as they saw the might of Kira's junior that just made them gulp loudly.
"so big." Lacus and Meiya spoke in unison.
An hour later, the situation calms down a bit as Kira along with Lacus and Meiya sat by the couch in the living room while the damage to the balcony had miraculously and mysteriously been fixed.
Kira still looks embarrassedly flustered as his cheeks were red and the same goes for Lacus and Meiya who are possibly reimagining his junior's might in their mind.
"excuse me~!" Tsukuyomi soon made an appearance as she came walking in with a tray that had cups of tea that she placed down to the table for the three. "here are you tea."
"t-thank you, Tsukuyomi-san." Kira said after coughing a bit into a fist and nodding to the maid who bows her head and then retreats to Meiya's side. he takes one cup and sips it a bit shakingly before he sighs and looks at the two girls with his eyes looking a bit angry, and embarrassed at the same time. "now then…on to the main point of this debate." He looks at the girls and sees how they are still in their dreamlands that they soon got taken out when he coughs loudly. "I would be happy if you two would be focus on this conversation instead of thinking back on something that should not be remembered!"
"y-yes…" Lacus and Meiya looks away with flustered cheeks before they calm their minds and looks at Kira. "please continue."
"continuing from before." Kira adjusted the collar of his shirt and looks at Meiya first. "This is a conversation to put an end to the fighting between you two. So I've decided that for the weekends, I'll be staying at Lacus' place for Friday to Sunday and I'll stay back home during the weekdays. This cannot be changed and shall remain like this forever when I decided to change it, understand?"
"but that's!" Meiya tried to retort but a single glaring look from Kira made her shut up and nod. "yes, I understand."
"and Lacus." Kira looks at Lacus. "you can come to my family's house whenever you want, but you are prohibited from causing any debating fights with Meiya. I don't need to remind you how my older brother is complaining from all the racket you two are making."
"noted." Lacus said with a nod. "I promise to not do such things again."
"good." Kira nods back before he sips his tea again and then looks at Tsukuyomi with a deadpanned face. "and Tsukuyomi-san, please do not ever try to help Meiya with doing something like this."
"I'm afraid that is not possible, Kira-sama." Tsukuyomi said after bowing her head. "I am Meiya-sama's personal maid and it is in my duty to aid her very wishes."
"Does that wish include helping her barge into Lacus' home with a wrecking ball?" Kira asks and Tsukuyomi merely looks away while whistling in response which made him squint his eyes. "do not ever try to help Meiya with something like this ever again, understand?"
"very well, Kira-sama. I, Tsukuyomi will not aide Meiya-sama do something that could potentially harm Miss Lacus." Tsukuyomi nodded as she could tell that if she didn't, Kira might try to just leave and stay with Lacus and that would ruin the mood of her mistress.
"ever." Kira added in. "you will not help her do anything that could harm Lacus ever. That needs to be emphasized, understand?"
"yes, ever." Tsukuyomi nodded in understanding. "I shall not aid Meiya-sama in harming Miss Lacus ever."
Kira looks at the maid for a moment before he sighs and sips his tea.
"I understand that there's always conflict between girls over a guy, but please try your best to tone things down." Kira said as he looks at Lacus and Meiya. "the troubles that you've caused have affected other people who are bothered and therefore should be put to a stop for the best."
"but she's the one that's causing it~!" Lacus and Meiya spoke in unison before they instantly glared at each other. "what was that?! How dare you blame me~!?"
"stop right there!" Kira exclaimed as he stops a possible cat fight. "I told you two to not fight anymore and you want to break that promise already!?"
"she started it!" Lacus and Meiya pointed at each other and this made them glare one another till they fired sparks that collided with one another.
"you two, please stop this childish game." Kira rubs the bridge of his nose as he was really going to be stressed out by them. "can't you both settle this peacefully like civil people?"
"if we are to settle things…" "it shall be with conflict!" Lacus and Meiya spoke after the other as they got off the couch and stood up to face the other. "let us end this battle once and for all!"
"hey! You two!" Kira exclaimed before Tsukuyomi went and takes him away. "h-hey! Tsukuyomi-san!"
"please be advised that you cannot stop this battle, Kira-sama." Tsukuyomi said as she got Kira to hide behind a table counter by the kitchen. "and also, please keep your head down to stray away from the danger."
"danger? What danger?" Kira asks before Lacus and Meiya snaps their fingers and the room gets barged in by military trained individuals that are from the Clyne Foundation and the Mitsurugi Zaibatsu. The soldiers came in from out of nowhere, either from the door, the bathroom's hot tub, the bottom of a bed, couch, and even the cupboards. "what the hell!?"
Lacus and Meiya face each other while their subordinates stood behind them with their guns at the ready. Andrew and Martin were with their princess as they held their assault rifles at the ready while on the other side, Tsukuyomi, her three maid subordinates, and even Takahashi joins their mistress' side; the five instantly getting ready with their weapons of choice.
"hey! You two! Stop this now!" Kira exclaimed to the group. "I told you two to not fight anymore and why the heck did you call in armed men with weapons!? Stop this madness!"
"don't worry, kid!" Andrew exclaimed with a grin as he pointed his gun at Takahashi who readied his revolver gun. "our side got only rubber bullets that only hurts and not kill!"
"and our side uses the same materials for the guns while our physical weapons use safe metal materials that are blunt and not dangerous." Tsukuyomi said while holding up a kunai that shines sharply. "see?"
"see~!?" Tsukuyomi's three subordinates held up a glaive, katanas, and shurikens that all shined sharply as well.
"I just saw them shine very sharply though!" Kira cried out.
"Kira, do not interrupt this final battle of ours." Meiya said as she got a wooden katana given to her by a soldier. She then got ready into a battle stance. "I shall defeat her and end this madness once and for all!"
"no, I shall defeat you and end this madness." Lacus said as she was given a pair of FN P90 by DaCosta. "be prepared for your defeat, Meiya-san."
"We shall see about that." Meiya said while squinting her eyes.
"you two…you're both just crazy…" Kira said as his very words can't stop them no matter what he does.
"attack~!" Lacus and Meiya screams out as they commanded their troops to attack.
In an instant, this looks like some sort of a battlefield for a painting where Lacus and Meiya battled each other with their forces while Kira is in the background; having the famous "the Scream" appearance.
Meanwhile at Dearka's new mansion of a house, Athrun and the others gathered together at the lavish living room as they are hanging out and playing a game on the man's new large tv.
"hey, should we ask if Kira's alright or not?" Miriallia asks as she was lazing around on the cough with Shiho, and Cagalli while eating potato chips. "it's been a while since we've heard about the incident at Lacus' place, right?"
"maybe later." Athrun said as he was playing a fighting game against Yzak, the man pressing the buttons of his controller very fast while his eyes were glued on the tv screen. "you know how things goes there."
"and do you want to get in on that battle between her and Meiya?" Cagalli asks.
"you're right…" Miriallia said as she didn't want the idea of being thrown into the fire of a battle between Lacus and Meiya. "maybe Kira is alright there."
"probably." Yzak and Shiho said in unison.
"hey~! Pizza is here~!" Dearka hollered out as he came into the living room while carrying three pizza boxes and two large bottles of soda and orange juice.
"yay~!" the group hollered out in unison as they continued to enjoy the fun time together.
Some time later, night time at Lacus' apartment that is slightly wrecked and damaged but was somewhat repaired to some extent.
On the top floor and in a bedroom. There is Kira and Lacus who are lying on the bed together. The mess of the battle between the pink diva and the blue swordsman ended when Canard got involved as the man's little half brother called on him for help.
Canard literally scolded Lacus and Meiya hard as he pointed out the fact that Kira could be anywhere he wants and therefore the whole fiasco is stopped by him negotiating that the brunette can stay at the pink diva's place for the weekends but has to be back home to the blue swordsman place during the weekdays.
This seems a bit unfair at first, but the two girls agreed to the compromise because of how Canard is telling them to agree or he'll do something that won't ever let them be with Kira ever again. Now it's all calm and peaceful as the battle has ended with no one's victory.
Right now, Kira lies on the bed with Lacus as he is, for some reason, wearing an adult size blue cat onesies while the pink diva wears a pink rabbit version.
"today was such a headache…." Kira whispers as he thinks back on how crazy the fiasco was because of him staying at Lacus' place and everything. "this really has to stop."
"it will, if you choose to stay here permanently." Lacus said as she got near Kira and slowly lies on top of him. "right?"
"Lacus…" Kira looks a bit deadpanned at Lacus. "did you forget what Canard told you and Meiya before?"
Lacus merely giggles and mischievously sticks out her tongue before she lies her head sideways to let her right ear lie and hear Kira's heartbeat.
"well, I guess I have to make do with the weekends." Lacus said as she snuggled closer to Kira. "for now that is."
"yeah…for now.." Kira said before he sighs and cradled Lacus closer as his arms circle around to hug her. "but please stop future fights with Meiya, alright? I don't think I can handle the entire fiasco if you two keep on being enemies."
"I'll try." Lacus replied as she snuggles closer to Kira before whispering a small. "for now."
The two proceeded to continue snuggling on the bed as it was night time on a Friday and that leaves free time for them to sleep a bit late than usual. However unknown to the two, Tsukuyomi was presently near the room as the Mitsurugi maid has herself concealed in a black ninja outfit and has been on an espionage on the two after the ordeal in the afternoon.
'Kira-sama and Lacus-sama are quite close…' Tsukuyomi mentally noted as she took a quick peek inside the room to see how Kira is caressing Lacus' back in order to get the pink diva to fall asleep faster. 'very close.' She then looks away and takes out a small notebook that she opens and begins to quietly write a memo on it. 'perhaps I should find a way to somehow strengthen the bond between him and Meiya-sama to allow a level of affection between the two. But….how?'
"did you hear that?" Kira spoke out as this surprised Tsukuyomi a bit. The maid quickly taking a peek back and sees the young man slowly sitting up with Lacus. The kunoichi instantly hides into a dark corner. "I thought I heard scribbling noises."
"scribbling noises?" Lacus asks. "perhaps it must've just been the sound of the night breeze passing the doorway?"
"hmmm, it might have been." Kira said before he yawns and lies back down on the bed with Lacus. "I'm so sleepy."
"then let's sleep." Lacus said after giggling as she snuggled close to her man.
After being in silence for 5 minutes, Kunoichi made a small appearance out of the dark corner as she looks a bit relieved.
'I forgot how Kira-sama's senses are quite sharp.' Tsukuyomi mentally noted before she quietly went near to check on the two occupant's current state and she finds that they are slowly falling asleep on their bed. 'I need to think of a way to get his attention upon Meiya-sama…' an idea soon hits into her mind as she smiles underneath her mask. 'perhaps I can call in that favor to do so?'
Tsukuyomi quietly made her way out of the apartment room and into the balcony where she proceeded to use a grappling hook rope that is attached to a railing. She proceeded to go down the apartment by climbing down the rope as she did it so stealthy and without anyone noticing.
'do not be afraid of losing the battle, Meiya-sama.' Tsukuyomi quickly goes down the apartment and out of the borders as to get on a parked motorcycle that she uses as a getaway vehicle. 'This Tsukuyomi will help you win the war!'
The engine roars and Tsukuyomi rides her motorcycle away from the Clyne apartment and heads straight for the Hibiki/Mitsurugi Household.
That's a wrap!
Bye bye
