Away the Prideful Drowning Anger
Izuku walking through a street with Kusano and Akitsu by his for some protection while the rest of his Sekire team are on standby until Izuku encounters Tsukiumi who is somewhere in this city.
"Do you feel her presence yet, Deku?" Akitsu asked her Ashikabi.
"I do feel her, she's close by, but I don't know where exactly. No specific location." Izuku answered, he started to notice this feeling he's been getting which according to Matsu is the result of awakening so many Sekirei in a short amount of time.
But even with this connection ability to his Sekirei and future ones, it still doesn't help tell him where to look exactly.
"(Guess we'll just have to go with where the feeling is the strongest.)" Izuku thought hoped they'll find Tsukiumi soon.
They walk through an alleyway because he feels like Tsukiumi is close by through that area, that also makes him feel a little more nervous knowing how this girl is to an Ashikabi hater.
Suddenly he heard a cat meowing loudly from above causing them to look up to see a cat literally falling from the sky and about to land on Izuku as he tries to catch it, but Kusano caught the cat with power on the potted plant to make it grow long and strong to grab it.
"Oh, good reflexes, Kusano." Izuku said, making the little Sekirei smile.
"Yeah, good catch, kid!"
Izuku was surprised to hear a familiar voice and look up to see none other than Seo on top of a building with a grin.
"Seo?" Izuku was surprised to see him again.
(With Tsukiumi vs Bell)
"Shit! Shit! Shit! Oh shit!" Bell cursed while she is running for her life from the crazy water Sekirei.
Bell just jumped from one building to another rolling on the stone ground and got back up to continue running only to stop herself when water spears pierced right in front of her, she turns around to see Tsukiumi who just landed.
"You cannot run from my power; I shall cleanse thou from that idiotic desire of wanting an Ashikabi." Tsukiumi proclaimed.
"Cleanse? More like you're trying to kill me with water!" Bell yelled.
"Look, I get that you have a grudge against Ashikabi, but don't you think you're overacting like the bitch you are?" Bell asked.
"How dare you say such things when I'm trying to prove that we can be strong on our own!" Tsukiumi growled a bit.
"Thou shall thee lesson the hard way!" Tsukiumi thrusted her hand and a few water attacks goes at Bell.
Bell curses at herself for getting in close with this water bitch in the first place when she could've been on her way to see that cute boy with the green hair, but now she finds herself in a tight spot.
She quickly put her fingers and thumbs together to form a rectangle shape hand sign with the space inside glowing eerie green.
Bell spread her hands apart causing the glowing rectangle glow to grow bigger in front of her that the water attacks went right in it then she closes it into nothing.
"My word! Thou have a unique ability that I have not seen before." Tsukiumi was surprised.
"Thanks, I guess you could say I'm a Portal-Type Sekirei that can create portals that'll take me anywhere I want for a quick escape or for good defense in a fight." Bell bragged with a smirk.
"Not only that, but I can even do this!" Bell made another portal throwing it close to Tsukiumi and it spit out all the water from earlier onto Tsukiumi.
But that didn't stop there as Tsukiumi is grabbed by the hair from Bell's hand that also came through the portal when she made another portal, and she thrusted foot through to kick her in the head.
"My defense can also be my offense too when I feel like it." Bell smirked.
"(But the main problem is that I can only make at least two portals at a time, like I just did to attack. And I'm not much of a fighter either.)" Bell thought knew she would end up losing in the end.
"(I have to get away from her and find him.)" Bell thought recalled that green hair boy she met days ago.
"That power may be impressive, but it is not enough to stand against Sekirei Number 9, Tsukiumi!" Tsukiumi attacked again with several waters.
Bell quickly move out of the way and move the best she could to dodge those water attacks while making one portal to take in one water attack and another one to send it back to Tsuikumi, but the water Sekirei halt it with one hand.
"Such pity tricks will not work on me a second time!" Tsukiumi stated.
"I need to think of something and fast." Bell grunted.
"No perish!" Tsukiumi attacked using a big water attack this time.
However, something or something jumps in front of Bell at the last moment when Tsukiumi launches, and a big fiery wall appears to block the water turning it into steam upon contact.
"What? Fire? Is that you, Homura?" Tsukiumi demanded if that is the same fire Sekirei she knows.
"Sorry, but I'm afraid my fire is different than that of Homura." Nobunaga smirked.
The steam cloud was blown away by a strong swing of a sword revealing the savior of Bell is none other than Nobunaga with her big sword.
"You… I know of you, thou are Sekirei Number 23, Nobunaga the Flame Bringer." Tsukiumi recognized the red hair woman.
"It's an honor to be recognized by one of the top ten strongest Sekirei, that just makes the fight that more interesting!" Nobunaga pointed her sword at Tsukiumi with excitement.
"You could've at least waited for me to catch up, Nobunaga. You know I have a hard time keeping up with you when it comes to running up on buildings." Ridget arrived at the scene as well.
"Oh, Bell! I didn't expect to find you battling Number 9 Tsukiumi?" Ridget was surprised to see a familiar Sekirei here with Tsuikumi.
"Yeah, not really my brightest moment." Bell shrugged.
"And here is the known Shield Woman, Sekirei Number 44 Ridget." Tsukiumi recognized the other Sekirei.
"We're only here because Nobunaga couldn't help herself but rush over here for believing that she found herself a good fight." Ridget explained with a slightly annoyed expression.
"Hey, it's not my fault you haven't been keeping up with your training from that job thing you do." Nobunaga stated.
"For the last time, one of us needed to work at a real job that pays well enough for us to have a roof over our heads, and the office job is good for me." Ridget pointed out with a pouty face.
"Whatever." Nobunaga rolled her eyes.
"I'm just here toe have a good fight and that's all." Nobunaga smirked at Tsukiumi.
"If thou wish to fight thee then you shall have it, but I must warn thee that my water will not be put out that easily." Tsukiumi stated.
"We'll see about that!" Nobunaga charged forward to begin the attack.
"Nobunaga, wait! She's a single number Sekirei!" Ridget tried to warn her.
"I know, idiot! That's why I'm looking forward to this the most!" Nobunaga shouted as she swings her sword, and it burst into fire.
Tsukiumi quickly defended herself with a wall of water that blocks the fiery attack though she saw that the sword is still going through despite the fire being put out, Nobunaga pushes herself forward and managed to get through to get through.
Nobunaga held her sword above her head to attack Tsukiumi who quickly moves out of the way to dodge it and push her away with a powerful water stream, but the red hair warrior withstood the watery attack and unleash a fire attack on the water to get it off.
"Yeah, now that's more like it!" Nobunaga laughed.
Nobunaga charges at Tsukiumi who conjures more water around herself to keep up the defense and to keeping the distance between them, something that Ridget notices very well.
"Nobunaga may be strong, but Tsukiumi's power is still something to behold given that she's a single number Sekirei." Ridget said.
"So, that means she'll lose?" Bell asked, feeling a bit worried.
"Well, she'll certainly last long against Tsukiumi… But yeah, she'll lose." Ridget admitted as she just saw Nobunaga getting knocked down by another water attack.
"Shit, this might actually be a really hard time for me." Nobunaga said as she gets back up.
But Nobunaga wasn't going to give up that easily as flames burst from her sword again and charges at her opponent again.
"Fury Flame Slash!" Nobunaga attacked with her own fiery slash attack only to be blocked by a powerful water wall even though she was able to make a big hole in it.
But Tsukiumi was able to react to that by sending water attacks from both sides to push Nobunaga back.
"I commend you for having the strength to face thee, but this battle is in my favor." Tsukiumi said as she unleashed a big water attack.
"Protection Dome!" Ridget suddenly appeared right in front of Nobunaga and conjured an ocean-blue barrier around herself and Nobunaga, but the barrier wouldn't last long as water attack is slowly breaking through.
"Nobunaga, I know you don't like to retreat, but we need to go find Seo and get you winged if you want to fight her at full power." Ridget said.
"Huh, I won't think of this as a retreat but getting ready for round two." Nobunaga proclaimed; she knew that she can't beat Tsukiumi with her current strength.
"Then you two better get moving!" Bell said as she ran past them.
Ridget let down the barrier for her and Nobunaga jump away from the spot and off the building.
"You dare run from a battle you started! Disgraceful!" Tsukiumi was angered by this and ran after them.
(With Izuku and Seo)
"Oh, so that cat is a missing pet." Izuku understood why Seo has been looking for this cat as they are walking together. Kusano and Akitsu are with them too, of course.
"Yeah, my client's pet cat and it almost got away from me too. I thought we were gonna have to find a lookalike and pull the old switcheroo, but you sure save me that trouble." Seo explained.
"You're welcome, I guess. Oh, I got myself too Sekirei." Izuku informed.
"Is that right? Let me guess, it's Number 5 Matsu and 100 Cattleya." Seo guessed with a smirk which to Izuku's shock.
"Wha… H-How do you know about the two of them?" Izuku asked.
"Did you perhaps meet them in the past?" Akitsu asked curiously.
"You got it. For Matsu, I was the one who put in that secret because Takehito asked me. As for Cattleya, when I met up with her and said that she needed a place to stay, I gave her directions to the inn and the rest is history." Seo explained.
"Wow, that's a lot to take in." Izuku commented.
"So, did you and Takehito… knew my dad?" Izuku asked the big question that has been on his mind.
Seo let out a sigh with a small smile, he knew the day would come when the kid would ask him that question. He just didn't think it would happen this soon.
"Yeah, we knew your dad, Toshinori. You could say he was our mentor who introduced us to the Sekirei, it's how I know some of them." Seo revealed.
"No way! My dad knew about Sekirei too?!" Izuku gasped as Kusano and Akitsu are a little shocked as well even though they don't know much about Izuku's dad.
"Oh yeah, you can imagine how shocked we were when he told us about them and seeing them for ourselves." Seo chuckled.
"Seo!" Ridget called out.
"Aren't those your Sekirei?" Akitsu asked, hoping she remembered the two right.
"Two of them are, but the new girl might be one with an Ashikabi." Seo guessed.
"Look, I found our little money maker. Isn't that great?" Seo pointed at the pet cat.
"Good for you, but we're kind of in serious trouble." Nobunaga said.
"Hold on, isn't that…" Bell spotted a familiar boy who is Izuku.
"Wait, that girl from before…" Izuku started to recognize that girl, he believes she called herself Bell back then too.
Suddenly, Bell started to feel the arching beats of her heart the moment she made eyes contact with Izuku and fell on her knees.
"It's really him!" Bell smiled.
"Hey! Are you?!" Izuku was concerned for that girl.
"Get thee heads!" Tsukiumi shouted at Izuku from below.
This got Izuku to look up to see another woman falling from high level coming right to this area too.
"I said out of the way!" Tsukiumi said.
However, it was already too late for Izuku to move out of the way when he saw the woman coming down and ended up breaking her fall even though it would be painful for him.
"Izuku! Are you alright?" Akitsu was worried.
"Lowly monkey, I bid thee he" Tsukiumi was about to scold the stupid boy for not heeding her words, but her scolding was cut off the moment she saw his face and suddenly felt a powerful sensation taking her over body that causes her to fall onto her knees.
"Hold on, the two of you…" Izuku started to recognize their reactions toward him, something that is all too familiar.
"(What does this mean? Where for brought to my knees… The heat… it grows stronger!)" Tsukiumi thought felt her body reacting more for this boy.
That's when everything started to click in her head, this boy is the very one she met in her head, the one who is to be her Ashikabi.
"Bastard, I… Thou… Thou art he…" Tsukiumi gets back up and forming water around herself like a hurricane of fury.
"I know thou seek to defile me, yet all I shall grant is suffering. And thou shall only be relief through death!" Tsukiumi declared, ready to kill Izuku.
"You shall do no such thing." Akitsu waved her hand to freeze the waters into solid ice much to her surprise.
"This power, it's quite powerful… You're a Sekirei as well, aren't thee?" Tsukiumi asked.
"I am Sekirei Number 7, Akitsu. But fortunately, I am unable to winged, but that does not I can't be with my Ashikabi." Akitsu helped Izuku up and hugs him.
"Your Ashikabi! So, you too have been disgraced by letting yourself get deflowered by such nonsense!" Tsukiumi was disappointed to have met a Sekirei who willing surrender her body to a man.
"That's right, me and Kusano here have willingly given ourselves to Izuku here. And it looks like that girl is also to become his Sekirei as well." Akitsu looked over to Bell.
"Huh, you mean you're a Sekirei?!" Izuku gasped in shock.
"Yeah, big shocker. But your ice queen is right, I am here to finally settle down with my Ashibaki since my body wouldn't shut up about you. Do you have any idea on how difficult to get around without feeling like I wanna get fucked?" Bell walked up to him.
"Oh, huh, I'm sorry." Izuku apologized.
"Well, might as well make this official then." Bell giggled, grabbing Izuku by the face and kissing him right on the lips much to his and Tsukiumi's shock as she glows green and yellow with her wings popping out.
"By the contract that opens a doorway, the enemies of my Ashibaki will be sentence away!" Bell chanted her Norito.
"You… You traitor?! Have you no shame for throwing away your purity instead of trying to make yourself stronger?" Tsukiumi asked in anger.
"Girl, I think you're just missing out on the big life that this kid could provide you more than money." Bell grinned.
"Silence! You shall suffer!" Tsukiumi attacked with a big water ball at Izuku to kill him, but that attack was stopped by Akitsu who froze the water ball almost in an instant and flick it into tiny pieces.
"I do not wish to fight you, but if you dare try to harm Izuku again, then you will leave me no choice but to fight you." Akitsu glared with the intention to protect Izuku from Tsukiumi's wrath with her ice power.
"Fools… Thou shall pay for this!" Tsukiumi gritted her teeth in rage.
KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!
