Chapter 5: The Calm before the Storm
Metro City, Beat Square, Naruto's Apartment
January 30, 2009, 7:00am:
A week and a half. That is how long its been since Naruto met both Chun Li and Li Fen. For the most part, since he was waiting for renovations for his new property to finish being built, he has decided to get to know both Luke and Chun Li more.
He's spent most of his days the same way, training in his own techniques in the morning, then heading to the gym with Luke, then spending the rest of his afternoon in Chinatown with Chun Li and Li Fen. Ever since their first meeting, Chun Li, has taken it upon herself to see just how much she can push Naruto. They regularly spar, with Naruto still holding back his power, making sure not to reveal anymore than what he already did.
On the topic of his own power, Naruto this morning made a breakthrough with his Chakra control. While his control isn't exactly the same as before, he can now place less priority in Chakra control, and more on his other techniques. He spent the day shaking off the rust on some of his wind-style jutsu. The biggest priority of course, was his own original creation, the Rasenshuriken. It's still going to be some time before he recreates it, but he has remastered its weaker form, wind-style: Rasengan.
Training. That seems to be the only thing that hasn't changed since he first became a Shinobi. Zack has mentioned to him in the past few days that it's rare to see Naruto not train. While Naruto doesn't see anything wrong with it, both him and Li Fen, have commented that it's not right to only focus on training. They both mentioned that maybe he should find a hobby.
To Naruto, training has always been his hobby. It allowed him to clear his mind, burn energy, but most importantly, it prevented him from being home. Alone, with no one to really hang out with him.
*Sigh* As Naruto gets ready for the day; he is reminded of what he has lost. There's no way of telling how his friends lived their lives, nor is there any way of finding out. He's a relic of a time that many today still question if it ever happened.
As he stares out from his window, the sun is still rising from the horizon, he begins to feel homesick. He thinks of all of his friends. More importantly, he thought of the girl, that gave him her heart, only for him to break it right at the end. Sometimes, he wonders what his life would've been if he was successful in shielding the blast. How did the Shinobi era, his era, end. What caused humans to lose their ability to use Chakra?
So many questions, and so little answers.
*Bzzt.* *Bzzt.* Naruto was snapped out of his thoughts when he heard his phone vibrate a couple of times on his desk. As he approaches the phone, he unplugs it from the charger, and looks at the message that was sent to him.
"Good morning, Naruto. Julie is unable to come in today, are you ok with taking her morning and mid-afternoon shift today?"- Boss.
It was a message from his current job. Despite having some money saved up, it doesn't hurt to have a source of income for now. He sighs, somewhat grateful for the distraction for his thoughts.
Hmm, maybe I should find a hobby. With that, he finishes putting on his outfit, which for today is a white T-shirt, under an orange jacket, blue pants, and his sandals. He grabs his phone, wallet, and keys to his apartment as he heads out towards his job.
Metro City, Beat Square
12:00pm, With Chun Li and Li Fen:
Normally, Fridays are supposed to be spent in Chinatown training her students. However, in Chun Li's eyes, it's been a while since she had a day to relax with Li Fen. Despite how much time they spend together, for the most part, she is either advising new detectives on their cases, or Li Fen is spending a lot of time on her PC or laptop.
With that in mind, Chun Li felt like it was time to have some bonding time with her adopted sister. What better way to do that then with their favorite activity, shopping.
Despite being a women on the more… mature side, she enjoys these little shopping trips, since she seems to also shop like a teenage girl. Li Fen and Chun Li can find great enjoyment with these little trips.
With Metro City's ever changing town square, new shops replace old ones in an instant. It always seems like something new is popping up in this busy part of town. Whether it be a fashion brand, sports stores, carnivals, restaurants, and even personal health services.
Which brings Chun Li back to the reason for the day, spending time with Li Fen. Despite some shaky steps at the beginning of their relationship, they've both came around and love spending time together. Despite being somewhat more …mature than Li Fen, she is "hip" enough to connect with Li Fen, as well as keep up with modern day pop culture.
*Ding* "Stop requested, Beat Square Station". The robot voice was heard as the bus they'd taken began to slow down. As they both left the public vehicle, many eyes around Beat Square began to wander towards them.
Chun Li was in a very casual outfit which consisted of a blue shirt that was short enough to reveal the top of her stomach over a white-long sleeved crop top, combined with beige Jogger pants held up by a leather belt, as well as pure white sneakers.
Li Fen is wearing a salmon-pink hoodie with a white medium sized skirt, as well as white shoes but with pink laces and soles. She had a red purse with a panda as the buckle, while Chun Li also had a purse, a rather nice-looking black purse with a golden standard buckle.
While Li Fen is still developing, she is essentially almost fully mature and her cute and pretty looks got her attention. However, compared to Chun Li, even without tight clothing, still grabs everyone's attention with her beauty. They walked for a bit, heading to their first store, a newer clothing store that has some cool designs from Japan.
This is how their day went for some time, jumping from store to store, picking up an item or two before moving on. At around 3pm, they decided to look for a restaurant to grab a bite. Once they received their food, they went to look for a place to sit in the Center of Beat Square.
As they were searching, sitting at a table with bags from a local sports store, Luke was seen in his casual streetwear, getting ready to chow down on a personal pizza from the truck nearby. Both Chun Li and Li Fen head over towards him.
As they placed their things on the table right next to Luke. After taking the first bite, he noticed that he had some guests. He smiles with his mouth closed, and gives them a cheerful salute, all while chewing and swallowing his bite of food.
"Hey, Chun Li. It's been a while." Luke states as he places his slice back down on the pizza box. "And look at you Li Fen, I can tell you've gotten stronger since we last saw each other. Just like your big sis huh." He states while smiling in Li Fen's direction.
"Hello again Luke. It's nice to see you as well". She never really interacted much with Luke in the past, but he is friendly and charismatic, so it's nice to have some conversations with him, in doses. With that, Luke looks back to Chun Li and asks,
"How's your teachings over at Chinatown going, I bet you are pretty popular over there." As he finishes his statement, Chun Li begins to set her food aside as well. Li Fen was seen opening her laptop and began typing on it.
"It's been good so far. Most of the students I am teaching are fairly new, sometimes I forget that and make the classes harder than they should be." Despite taking a break and having some experience with teaching, one on one training is different than group training. She is still learning in that aspect.
"How about you? How's it been running your own gym?" Luke, like herself, also seems to be taking a break from their original occupation. She knew that Luke's attitude didn't quite fit in the military. And if Guile was to be believed, it's probably best he switched up his career.
"I can't really complain much. I got one recruit that is taking my advance course. It's been a while since my last advanced student, so I was missing some gear, which is why I am here," he states while gesturing to the bags around him.
"I see. Well, I guess we both still got some things to work on them." She says in a playful manner. "Yeah, I guess that's true. Actually, some of the stuff wasn't something I had plan on purchasing, it was requested by said student." Truth be told, Luke was given a list from Naruto on specific items that he wanted to have if it wasn't too much of Luke.
"Let me guess, this advanced student wouldn't happen to be the same one that Alice told me about. Naruto Uzumaki?" She says while taking a bite from her meal, which was an order of orange chicken over fried rice. "Well, well, well, I see that your detective skills haven't faded. Yes, it is in fact Naruto. He's got a lot of potential."
Interesting. Normally, sharing students, while uncommon, isn't too surprising, sometimes, she even sends some of her students to Luke so they can get connections with the military or PMC work. However, due to the events that occurred during her first encounter with the blonde-haired student, she wanted to ask Luke some questions.
"Hey Luke, how much do you know about Naruto?" When the question left her mouth, whatever Li Fen was working on was not as important to her anymore. She closed her laptop and began to focus on conversation in hand.
"Honestly, other than the few instructions I give him every once in awhile during our training sessions, I don't necessarily talk about his personal life with him." As he says this out loud, it come to his realization that he doesn't know anything about Naruto other than his style of martial arts and his potential.
"I see. Then a better question. How do you view Naruto? Do you see anything suspicious about him?" Chun Li asks these next few question, trying to confirm an observation she makes every time she trains Naruto.
"Now that you mention it, whenever he spars with others, something seems to be stopping him from going all out." Truth be told, ever since his first spar with Naruto, he hasn't stopped thinking about that one crucial detail. Naruto is clearly experienced in fighting, enough to get the upper hand on some of his assistants. "Why do you ask?" He looks at Chun Li with curiosity.
So, I'm not the only one either. She sighs, "It's to confirm an observation of mine. I see the same thing, it's like he's purposefully not going all out. For the most part, he fights with an almost defensive purpose rather than offensive." She states as she also recalls some sparring matches between Naruto and some of the other students.
This time Li Fen followed up, "Luke do you know anything else about Naruto's personal techniques, previous masters/mentors, or even friends?" While asking this, she decided to take matters in her own hands, opens up her laptop to and began doing what she does best, gathering information.
Luke looks at Li Fen, confused, "Personal techniques? This is the first time I'm hearing this." Chun Li than took that as her cue to explain. She told Luke about Naruto's Rasengan, explaining everything she witnessed as well as a bit of what Naruto explained to her. To say Luke was shocked was an understatement.
"Well, that's certainly news to me. I wonder why he never showed me it?" As he crosses his arms, he begins to think to himself. If Luke was honest, he is starting to not like how distant he is from Naruto now. He has a lot of potential and seems like a really nice guy. Maybe he might need to step it up and develop a better relationship with Naruto.
Luke looks back at the sisters, "All I do know is what is stated on his intake form. He's from Japan, never mentions family, friends, or previous mentors/teachers I know his birthday is October 10, and he also loves the color orange." These are all surface level observations and general information of Naruto, but it was enough for Li Fen to get to work.
"Well, Naruto did mention to me that he learned the Rasengan from his father's notes. I can only assume he was self-taught." Chun Li also crosses her arms over her chest, thinking about the information that Luke provided.
"Do you have any idea as to why he might be behaving that way?" Luked asked Chun Li as she continued to think. "I thought that he was simply lacking confidence and needed a boost. Taking him to the streets and exposing him to real fights was something I thought he needed." She closes her eyes and rubs her chin as well.
"So far, what I have observed, I can't say for sure what is causing him to behave that way. I thought it was fear of his own potential, but that doesn't quite fit right." If Naruto was scared of his potential, then him showcasing the Rasengan would not have happened. Thinking back, it was clear that Naruto was upset that he revealed the Rasengan to begin with. Why though is the question she doesn't have an answer for yet.
As both Luke and Chun Li continue to discuss Naruto, Li Fen, with the new information, has a starting point to begin her search. As an extremely talented hacker, she is looking into any forms of official records of Naruto in Japan. Could she get in trouble for doing this, yes. Is she endangered of causing wide government panic, yes. Was she good enough to not get caught, double yes.
She looked for anything and everything related to Naruto Uzumaki. His mystery both interests her a lot, and she can't deny that she is, perhaps, possibly, maybe a little bit attracted to him and wants to get to know him more. So, this search also includes trying to find anything related to his interests and past relationships.
As I'm saying this to myself, does this count as stalking? Maybe she is taking things a little too far. God this must be so weird if anyone were to find out why I am really doing this. What can she say. She was never attracted to anyone before, so she is inexperienced. Sue her.
Back with Luke and Chun Li, they decided to drop the subject and just return to eating their meals and talking about other things. Eventually, Luke bid them farewell as he left to go back to his gym and drop off the equipment.
Both Chun Li and Li Fen continued on with their day, visiting 3 more stores before it became 4pm. With a couple of bags, the sisters were seen chatting happily when Chun Li spotted a particular shop that interested her.
"Style Lab Beauty Salon." It's a revolutionary style of salon that combines tradition and science to give their clients the best services possible. Chun Li remembers doing a commercial for them and her reward was free use of their services along with a party of up to 5 people for life. Li Fen stops as well to see what her Jiejie was looking at.
Chun Li looks at Li Fen and asks, "Hey Li Fen, how about we relax for a bit before we start heading back home." Chun Li, despite knowing of them, haven't really used that reward at all, especially with Li Fen. She thinks this place should be a great bonding experience for both of them.
Li Fen looks at the salon and nods her head at Chun Li with a smile, "Sure, why not, this should be fun." With that they headed towards the salon.
Inside Style Lab Beauty Salon:
The interior of the salon, for a lack of a better term, was outstanding. One of the first things Chun Li noticed was the soft flute Asian style melody played on the speakers. Wood was used for both flooring and the lower portion of the walls. The décor and design of the lobby is clearly inspired by traditional salons and spas in Thailand. However, it seems to have a blend of several Asian cultures.
Traditional Chinese watercolor paintings were seen all across the walls. The chairs were covered in a Thailand style cloth cover with different colors. Japanese bamboo screens were white in color with Sakura cherry blossom and other trees painted on it.
Lastly, at the main desk, there was their "spa menu" as it was labeled in bubbly blue- and yellow-colored letters. The desk itself was made of wood, with a statue of the Buddha near the register. Plants of various sizes and color were placed around the waiting area, near the exists, as well as on the main desk and bathrooms.
Chun Li and Li Fen were both impressed with the atmosphere and vibes this relatively large salon gave off. As both made their way towards the main desk, they see a bamboo screen door open up with two female customers walking out, bliss and ecstasy were the only emotions that could be used to describe their faces, as they went to the main desk to pay for their services, clearly seen leaving a large tip as well.
Once the two women left the counter, Chun Li, with Li Fen slightly behind her, approached the receptionist at the main desk. She was an elder, with grey hair in a large bun on the top of her head, held together by a crown-like ornament. Her wrinkled face made it look like she had her eyes closed at all times. She was also shorter than Li Fen, not too surprising given her age. She was seen wearing a light pink scrub top and matching pants, with white Chinese slippers as well.
"Oh my. Hello and welcome to our humble salon and spa studio Ms. Li. My name is Yume, but people also call me Mrs. Miyu as well. How can we service you today?" The elder lady stated with a bow at the end of her statement to show respect. Chun Li wasn't too surprised of this, after all she did star in their commercial. She waited for the elderly lady to finish bowing to respond,
"Nice to meet you Mrs. Miyu, I am interested in receiving some of your services, but I am unfamiliar with the different variations. I hope you don't mind us taking some time to look over the options?" She states while pointing at the large menu on the wall behind Mrs. Miyu.
"No problem at all. If you want, you can have a seat at our waiting area. Another staff will be stopping by to help you both out. Please, make yourselves comfortable." With that Chun Li nods her head and both sisters make their way to couches that make up the waiting area. There, they see the same menu as well as a list of all their masseuses as well as their rates and prices.
Chun Li grabs one the menus, while Li Fen grabs the masseuse listings. As they both look over their lists, they hear the comments from the other people in the waiting area.
"Man, I don't know how I was living without this place. My body feels reborn and ready to get back to training." "*sigh* Need I remind you that your injury is still in effect. Please don't rush your recovery time." "Y-yes ma'am". This was the conversation between a boyfriend and girlfriend as they seemed to be waiting for someone else.
"I wish he wasn't so difficult to schedule for. I swear, if we weren't in the U.S, I'd be asking something extra from him, if you know what I mean." "8SHH* We're in public, so watch what you are saying." "Ah c'mon, he's a total hunk. Not to mention the way he works through all the kinks. I'd almost argue its better than the real thing." "*Sigh* Well. When you put it like that, I can kind of agree." This was the conversation between three girls as they seem to be waiting for their turn.
Hmm interesting, seems this place has some talented masseuses. While she never cared for them, she can't deny that a massage done by someone who knows what they're doing is a very relaxing and blissful experience.
She continues to focus on the menu in her hands. It appears that all massages have different prices and rates, depending on who is performing the massage, and the type. The lowest rates seems to be more oriented towards injured folk, followed by deep tissue, to full body, to bone adjustment, and finally the complete package that has all of them together.
Seeing as they won't be pay for anything, she decided to get the ultimate package. "Alright Li Fen. What do you say we have the full experience." She states as she shows her the option, she wants them to do. "This one includes everything from nail polishing, nail painting, skin care, and their best massage formats."
Li Fen looked it over and had to admit, everything about it sound too good to be true. Then the very last item that was included grabbed her attention. "Hey Jiejie, what's this last one?" She states as she points to menu. "Chi-powered massage? Those exist?" Li Fen asked Chun Li, who also seems to be interested in it as well.
"Hmm, well, the concepts isn't unheard of, but I've never seen it before. I never received one before either." This is fascinated, she wanted to learn more about that type of massage. She looks over at the list that was in Li Fen's hands that had the different types of masseuses.
"Li Fen, have any of the masseuses caught you attention?" She wonders if any information on who specializes in what can let them know more about this Chi-powered massage. Li Fen looked back at her list to look over the different options. The list include the masseuse's gender, name, specialties, as well as a picture of them with their credentials.
As she looked over all of them, one of them, the very last one, was the most mysterious. Why? Well for starters, where the name of the person would be, instead has the word "Classified" over it. There was no picture either. Strange. According to the rest of the information, this masseuse was a male, young, and seems to be the only one capable of performing the Chi-powered Massage.
"Jiejie, look at the last one." Li Fen hands over the list to Chun Li who briefly skimmed through the list until she got to the last one. Interesting. Name, classified, gender, male, age, 22, specialties include all massages and services. He also seems to be the only one listed to be capable of performing the Chi-Powered massage. Is he a martial artist? This mystery masseuse has caught her attention.
Before they can continue with their train of thoughts, one of the staff, a women who seemed to be slightly younger than Chun Li, with pink hair, blue eyes and wearing the same uniform as Mrs. Miyu walked up to them.
"Hello and good evening to you both. My name is Joy. I'm one of the interns here and personal assistant to one of our masseuses. Have you both decided on what bundle you want?" She states as she stands to the side of the couch Chun Li and Li Fen were sitting on, while also taking out a pen and notepad.
Chun Li took this as her cue to speak, "My sister and I are very interested in this ultimate bundle that includes all of these services, we just have some questions?' She stated then showing her the one they both want.
"Of course, ask away." She states with a smile. "Is there any reason as to why of all the masseuses, the very last one is classified? Also, can you tell me more on what exactly this Chi-powered massage is?" These were some of the main questions she wanted answered since it was very suspicious.
Joy rubs her arm and gives a slight awkward smile. "Well to be entirely honest, I don't know the real reason either as to why he is classified." Not the answer both Chun Li and Li Fen were expecting. "However, I am one of his two personal interns, and I will be guiding you both throughout the many different services. He is very kind and extremely gifted. I have yet seen a single person complain about him." The more they heard, the more the sister pair grew interested in this person.
Joy continued, "To answer the second question. From what he has told me, its an ancient technique that allows him to manipulate his "physical energy" or Chi as he calls it and let it flow through the client's body. Essentially it purifies the body with his energy. He's performed it on me, and I can say that it is the most thorough, relaxing, and best massage that I've ever had." She finishes with a light bliss shown on her face, possibly remembering the experience herself.
With her questions answered, Chun Li looks at Li Fen, who seems very enthusiastic over the idea of the massage, "Alright we liked to receive the ultimate bundle." She states as Joy nods her head.
"Ok then, but before that, we have two different types of the ultimate bundle, the one that includes the Chi-powered massage and the one that doesn't. The reason we do this is due to the fact that the classified individual is our only masseuse that is capable of performing the Chi-powered massage. So, if he was unavailable customers can get a discount." Chun Li nods in understanding.
"I see. Is he av ailable currently? I am very interested in that particular massage." Li Fen and Chun Li both waited on her answer.
She shakes her head from side to side, "Unfortunately he is unavailable at this time. The three women went first and have selected him. This was going to be his last session for the da-." Before Joy finished her statement, their was a loud scream that sounded like a girl's, before the screen door slide open harshly, followed by the same three women earlier essentially be dragged out by other interns.
*Buzzt* Buzzt*, The buzzing was coming from Joy's phone. She opened it and read the text message. "Never mind, it seems that he is available today. So, are you still interested in the ultimate bundle?" She is being nonchalant about what just occurred.
Chun Li looks back at Li Fen, who simply shrugs her shoulders and gives an awkward smile. "Umm yes, we are still interested in that bundle. Oh, before I forget, I was told that I can get free access to all your services due to my support with the commercial, is there something I need to showcase before we proceed?" Realization came across the face of Joy.
"Oh, so you are Chun Li. Sorry I didn't really recognize you. Fighting or martial arts are something I enjoy watching or doing. I do have a lot of respect for you though." This wasn't too surprising, not everyone is obsessed with fighting. "I will just need your ID and the bar code from the email we should've sent you." With that, Chun Li got to work, pulling out the necessary items for that Joy was asking for.
After collecting the items and having them process back at the main desk she returned with her stuff and continued where she left off.
"Alright, before we continue, I will say that the bundle you requested requires both of you to either be nude or in a bikini/swimsuit for some of the massages and services. This is to ensure for the most optimal experience. We understand that if you feel uncomfortable with the idea of a male masseuse performing these services for you will nude, but I can ensure you that he went through all the necessary background checks and has never received a complaint."
Chun Li looked back at Li Fen, who while shocked, still nodded anyway with a smile. Chun Li smiled back and looked back at Joy, "Sure, we are fine with that." With that Joy got up and told them to follow her.
They headed to the Bamboo screen door, not knowing that they were going to see a very familiar face.
Massage room, 5:30pm
Once the sisters went through the sliding door, they were guided to the changing room, where they changed into a bath robe that was white with a pink strap to hold it up. They quickly changed, slipped off their shoes and put on some sandals and left the changing room. They were guided into a private room with all the spa equipment there.
What followed afterwards was arguably the best spa day they ever had. Joy was quickly joined by the second intern, a male of average build and height, with short black hair and blue highlights along the slide, and together, they performed the spa portion of the bundle. Both interns, gave them some skincare treatment, while also cleaning their feet, doing their nails on both hands and toes, and removing any dead skin or callouses from the same spots as well.
While the interns were doing that, another staff, this time an older looking women, not quite as elderly as the front desk lady, did both their eyebrows, and offered to wax their bodies as well. They didn't since they already take care of that at home. By the time all was set and done, they were sent to another room to begin the massage portion of the day.
This is where we find the two sisters, sitting down on the massage beds waiting for this mysterious masseuse to arrive.
*Sigh*"Jiejie, this was a great idea. I think we should make this a regular thing we do now." Chun Li couldn't agree, even if they haven't gotten the massage yet, everything else has been beyond perfect. She's even thinking about inviting some old friends over to do this with.
"And with you getting everything for free, we can definitely be treated like queens." Li Fen knew that if her sister didn't have that free discount, they'd definitely would not have done the ultimate bundle.
"Now Li Fen, you know we shouldn't abuse that." Honestly, Li Fen is too quick to abuse certain things even if she had to agree that she was more grateful to her past self for taking that gig in the first place.
Before they could continue talking, they hear the sliding door to the massage room open. Joy was the first to walk in, followed by, "Naruto!/Naruto!" It was Naruto Uzumaki, standing a orange version of the uniform, with what appeared to be a leaf-like symbol embroidered onto the shirt right over his heart.
As he entered the room, shock was also present on his face. He clearly wasn't expecting them either. "Hey Chun Li, Li Fen. What are you guys doing here?" He states as the shock was replaced with nervousness and awkwardness. "We should be asking you that." Chun Li states back. Today was just full of surprises.
"You work as a masseuse Naruto. YOU'RE the classified masseuse?" Li Fen states, as blush began to form on her face. Here was her crush, about to massage her. From what she heard in the lobby… steam was practically leaking from her ears as the blush became atomic and covered most of her face.
Thank God that Joy gave us swimsuits to wear. While they were changing, they also received the swimsuits as they requested. They were given a two-piece bikini swimsuit in their sizes. Both were in the same color scheme, pink for the top and blue for the bottoms.
"Surprise? I can't blame you. It's something that I just ended up happening." He rubs the back of his head as a slight awkward smile appears on his face. During his year of training in Japan, in order to earn enough money, he actually went to a salon and requested an internship there. Even with his crappy chakra control, he asked old man Yoshi to teach him that Chi technique he used to calm Naruto down in the mountain.
Suffice to say, Naruto immediately rose through the ranks as a top masseuse in Japan. Eventually, he earn his certificate and license to become a professional masseuse. When he arrived in Metro City, he saw the Style Lab Beauty Salon close to his complex and decided to apply. He got the job and has been his temporary job until he gets his ramen shop up and running.
"Anyways, shall we begin? Do you have any concerns, questions even." He states as he makes his way over to the two sisters, now standing in the gap between their beds .Joy followed suit, standing next to Chun Li's bed on the other side from where Naruto was standing.
Chun Li looks at Naruto, before she looks at Joy. She smiles, "I guess its true what they say, don't trust a book by its cover. Please take care of us Naruto." While still sitting she smiles at Naruto, essentially giving him the green light to begin. She the looked over to her sister.
Li Fen didn't say anything when Chun Li looked at her at first. All she was focusing on was controlling her blush. Once she processed the statement, she followed as well, "P-please t-take care of m-me Naruto." Li Fen was doing her best to avoid his gaze directly. Oh god. C'mon Li Fen, control yourself, its just a simple massage. He'll likely do Jiejie first so I can prepare for what's to come. With that she also smiled shyly at Naruto, giving him the green light as well.
He claps his hands once, then rests them in front of him, "Alrighty then. Now before we start, normally I'd be the one performing all the massages, taking turns on each client, however, today is slightly different. Joy here has been training non-stop for quite some time and I deemed her ready to perform all of the same massages I will be doing." As he states this Joy waves her hands at them with a cheerful smile.
"She will follow my lead all the way until we get to the Chi-powered massage. From there I will be taking over for both." He states moves to stand right in front of Li Fen, Joy doing the same with Chun Li, "I may give her some instructions, so I will say sorry now that the massage will not be as quiet as it can be." With his piece said, he looks at Joy as she nods back, a smile of determination now in place.
Chun Li doesn't seem bothered, "Not to worry Naruto, do what you must." He nods before speaking at Joy, "Ok, since this is you first real client, I will be performing it on Li Fen here, you can perform it on Chun Li, ok?" "Yes Naruto-sensei." She nods followed by looking at Chun Li, "I will do my best to satisfy you Ms. Li." She says with a bow.
The main reason why Naruto did this is due to experience. Over the many sessions, he's discovered that those with smaller frames and less muscle or fat on their bodies can actually experience pain if the masseuse uses too much force. Newer masseuses have a harder time controlling their strength, so he decided that between the two sisters, Chun Li was a better fit for Joy.
He looks at Li Fen with a smile, " The same goes for me as well, I will do my very best to leave you satisfy Li Fen." He finishes with a bow as well. Not realizing the large blush that continued to grow on Li Fen's face.
Oh god, oh god, oh god, I'm not ready for this. Is this really happening?! Internally, she was getting more and more nervous. She hopes that she doesn't do anything that embarrasses herself in front of Naruto. She nods her head, albeit slowly and still avoiding his gaze.
"Perfect. Now can both of you lie down on your back, we will start at the feet. You can keep the robes on for now." He follows up with a fluffy moist towel to cover Li Fen's eyes to shield her from the lights above. He then pulls out a pink pillow under from the massage bed and rest his knees on it. Joy doing the same thing shortly after with Chun Li. Once the sisters laid on their backs and the towels were placed on their heads, it began.
Li Fen didn't know what to expect once Naruto grabbed her ankle, she tensed up at first, "Its ok Li Fen, just relax." In a soft voice, he stated as he began to rub the ankle a little bit, "It won't hurt, I promise. I need you to give me full control, can you do that for me?" With that Li Fen's body relaxed, then she slowly nodded, giving him full control. With that, Naruto begin the massage.
He started by slightly pulling both feet, being careful not to extend them too far, then followed by putting pressure on the bridge or top part of the foot. After a minute, he switched to massaging the toes. Following the toes, he then puts pressure on the sole, or the area just under the toes, then the under arch, or the middle of the foot, and lastly the bottom of the heel. Joy was copying the motions as well.
Chun Li, for the most part, was so far impressed with the technique. Despite being her first real client, Joy clearly has a good sense of knowing where and how to apply pressure.
Meanwhile, Li Fen was doing everything in her power to not release any mewls or moans. She had no way of describing it. This massage was beyond enjoyable. It was perfect. He was hitting EVERY spot and she was starting to question if he had x-ray vision or something.
"You have very smooth and soft feet Li Fen. Good job on taking care of them." Naruto comments, as he works on the side of the foot, specifically the arch. The only response he got from Li Fen were suspicious sounding grunts as Li Fen started biting her lip to stop herself from releasing anything more embarrassing.
After a few more minutes, Naruto and Joy began move up from the leg. Now they were focusing on the rest of leg. Since it's a Thai style massage, another reason why Naruto wanted to be the one to do Li Fen's massage was that its difficult to properly do them if the masseuse is bigger than the client. Its one of the reasons as to why mostly women are the ones performing it. While Joy isn't that much bigger than Chun Li, Li Fen is still a little to small for him to be confident that she will be able to perform the massage correct. Thus, why he is doing it.
He gets off the pillow, and while standing, applies pressure to the left calf, then slowly moving up the leg every minute or so, until he was at her upper thigh. He then switched to the right leg and did the same thing. "Li Fen, can you please remove you robe so I can begin the next portion of the massage." Naruto while making sure that Joy was keeping up. With a blush growing again, she slowly, almost hesitantly, pulls on the ribbon holding her robe, then slowly removing her robe.
(Fluff Scene 1 Beginning, nothing graphic or anything like that, but if you don't care for this stuff, skip until you see this message again)-SpodeSP
Joy did the same thing with Chun Li. Once both the sister's robes were removed, Naruto and Joy placed a towel over their bodies. They are using it to give the sister's some decency and privacy, even if their swimsuit didn't reveal too much. Naruto got up onto the bed, then, grabbing the left leg by the calf, he lifts the leg up slightly, then bends it at the knee, than used his own foot to apply pressure onto the inner thigh and hamstring of the left leg, while also pulling and massaging the calf. Joy was not far behind, doing the same thing with Chun Li's leg.
*Gasp* *Gasp*, if the sharp intake of air was any indication, there seems to be a lot of tension in both of sister's legs. Makes sense given their martial arts style. Naruto comments while testing the range of motion for the left leg, making it move in a flapping motion while maintaining the same position. He then switched to the right leg and repeated the same process.
If Li Fen was struggling to contain her voice before, she was almost certain that something was bleeding in her mouth due to how hard she was fighting down the moans. The same cannot be said from Chun Li, though, she seems to also release the occasional sigh.
"Ms. Li, you have extremely beautiful and powerful legs. You have to tell me you secret." Joy commented as she worked on the powerful legs of Chun Li. Legs that were both alluring to look at, and dangerous to face in combat.
After a few more positions with the legs, Naruto and Joy switched to focusing on their hips, applying pressure to one side as they move the legs together from side to side, ensuring they give their hips an improvement in motion. Once the hips were adjusted, both masseuses moved to the stomach, applying light pressure on the sides and waist. They then moved up to the shoulder, chest, and arms. Moving the arms into different poses while also placing pressure and pulling at different points.
When they got to the neck and head area, they rubbed their temples, moved the neck from side to side to test its range of motion then applied pressure where it was needed. "Alright them, can you now lay down on your stomach for me Li Fen, I'm now going to work on your back and backside." He states while also listening to see if Joy is still following along.
Li Fen, finally catching her breathe, grew nervous again. However, she obliged and flipped over. Her back was now facing the ceiling. Naruto got back on the bed, hovering above Li Fen. He adjusted the towel so that it was covering her butt but exposing all of her back. He began near the shoulder blades, pressing down on each one to see how tense they were.
After a bit of massaging, he moved to the middle back, however, since there wasn't tension, he moved on to the lower back and Li Fen's butt. Once again, a Sharp gasp was heard from Li Fen, unlike last time however, Li Fen was unable to contain the moan(s) that escaped this time.
"You seemed to have a lot of tension in this area, as well as in your hamstrings." Naruto states as he works through all the kinks in her lower back and butt. Li Fen did her best, she really did, at containing her moans, but it was far too pleasurable that she stopped caring. Luckily, after the first loudish moan, the rest were softer and breather. Chun Li wasn't fairing any better. She too was enjoying the massage being done.
Finally, the finale to the massage, came when Naruto and Joy hooked the sister's arms behind them, then pulled their torsos towards them. Arching their back backwards, completing the deepest stretch either of the sister has ever received. Both mewl, and moan at the satisfying deep stretch hitting the right spot. When it was all said and done, Naruto and Joy got off the bed and moved to the front of the beds.
(Fluff Scene 1 End, sorry, have to play it safe.)-SpodeSP
They each gave the sisters time to bask in the post massage feelings. Once they recovered their senses, they both sat up looking at both their massagers. "Ok ladies, that wraps up this massage. Now its time for me to work my magic. Thank you, Joy, for helping out today, you did great." Joy smiled at the praise she received from arguably the best masseuse she ever met. She bowed her head to Chun Li and Li Fen, before saying goodbye and leaving the room.
Naruto looks at Chun Li, "So, what do you think. How'd she perform?" He was asking a bit of review as to see if he can make any improvements with her lessons.
Still at a loss of words Chun Li responded, "I must say, if this was your teachings, I'm actually jealous of Li Fen for receiving straight from its creator. That was arguably the deepest and most satisfying massage I've received." She answered honestly, while her experience was great, she can only imagine what it felt like to receive it from Naruto. Since he was the more experience of the two.
"I'm glad you liked it; I'd be sure to let Joy know of your approval. How did you like Li Fen?" Li Fen barely registered her name being called. She had a cloudy, almost hypnotic look in her eye. Luckily, she noticed them looking at her, so she shook her head to reboot her brain, before struggling to get out what she wanted to say.
"I-it was r-r-really, satisfying. I-it feels like I-I was r-reborn." She stuttered, whether that was due to the bliss she was feeling or the embarrassment of moaning during the massage, she couldn't tell.
"I'm happy you liked it. Now its time for the final massage. Its my own personal creation; The Chi-powered Massage." When Naruto stated that, both the sisters refocused on him, awaiting his explanation.
"Now, since this is going to be your first time experiencing this type of massage, I will provide some context. This massage is a version of an ancient technique passed down by martial artists on the island of Japan", he pauses momentarily to see if they still follow. "I learned this from my mentor. He used the original technique on me to help calm my emotions and assist me with my meditation." This just interesting.
So, he did have a teacher before us. Chun Li was grateful that at least one of her questions on the blonde was answered. "My version is a little more intense, by manipulating my energy, I can force muscles to relax as well as your mind, boost your body's metabolism, and if you use Chi, I can "purify" it by recycling the energy with my own." He states.
In truth, this technique was a combination of Yoshi's technique and healing ninjutsu. For obvious reasons, he is arguably the only person on the planet that can perform this technique due to still having Chakra.
"With that out of the way, lets get started." He moves turns his body to face Li Fen, "I will start with you, ok Li Fen, lay down on your back and close your eyes." Li Fen, still a little nervous, did as she was told. Naruto moved so that he was standing behind the Li Fen's head. Chun Li than saw Naruto hands beginning to glow a light green color.
"Ok Li Fen, try to picture your most relaxing day. Think of the place, the activity, and even the weather. Take deep breaths and immerse yourself in your imagination." When Naruto saw that Li Fen was relaxed, he moved his hands to either side of her head, resting them just above the ears.
Li Fen was on cloud nine.
Never had she felt so at peace. No worries were felt, no intense emotions, no pain, no complex thought, it truly felt like she went to heaven. Compared to the intense and pleasurable sensations of the massage earlier, this is much tamer, calmer even. She felt lighter than a feather, truly an experience she will soon not forget.
After a couple of minutes, he then traveled down the body, however, there was no skin contact after leaving the head, just Naruto's Chakra moving along her body, releasing tension from the upper body. Eventually, he got to the feet, where once again, he grabbed them, and increased the flow of Chakra.
*Gasp**Sigh* Unlike the previous massage, tension was relieved, but it wasn't nearly as intense. It felt like a warm sheet of heat was moving along her body, purifying it, and removing anything that was tense or damaged. Her feet felt like they were being wrapped up in the softest blanket, while also feeling the callouses and whatever remained of dead skin disappear.
Finally, after 2 minutes, Naruto cut off the flow of Chakra. Ok, that should do it for Li Fen. Luckily, the previous massage was enough to remove almost all of her tense spots. Nothing more I can do now. "There you go Li Fen, you are all set, Li Fen?". She was either was sleeping or she was too caught up in the sensation that she hasn't returned from her high yet. Deciding to leave her be for now, he returned his gaze to Chun Li.
Chun Li, for a lack of a better term, was excited for this massage. Looking at Li Fen's expression and body, it felt like she was looking at a completely different person. She was so relaxed and at peace, that for a second, she was genuinely concern that she wasn't ever going to wake up. Her gaze went back to Naruto. "Alright Chun Li, its your turn, please lay down on your back, and I shall begin.
(Fluff Scene 2 Beginning. Again, nothing graphic or anything like that, but if you don't care for this stuff, skip until you see this message again)-SpodeSP
She did as she was told, making sure to relax her body. Once she closed her eyes, she heard Naruto's clap his hands together, then heard some rubbing and felt a warmth touch the side of her head.
Pure. Bliss.
There was no other way of describing it. It was as if all negative emotions she felt were extracted from her body the moment Naruto's hands rubbed the sides of her head. She hummed in approval, wanting him to continue.
He continued through the same motion as how he did with Li Fen, slowly working his way down, until he got to her feet, where she too gasped and sighed at the touch. Alright, just as I thought, she has a lot of Chi related tension in her thighs, hamstrings, and gluts. While the technique he was doing was essentially the massage, it was technically the same technique that medical ninja use to diagnose injuries on a shinobi's body. With this, he can use it to find hidden points of tension and removed them with more chakra manipulation.
"Alright Chun Li, I need you to turn around and lay on your stomach. I felt something with my Chi and want to help you out." Too consumed by the relieving experience, she barely understood what Naruto was saying before she did what he requested.
Naruto didn't bother adjusting the towel to cover Chun Li's body, as he would need a more direct touch to do what he wants to do. "Ok Chun Li, I'm going to be relieving some tension from your backside, ok?" She didn't really respond, merely nodded her head slightly. With that, Naruto again applied Chakra to his hands, however, he included a bit more, changing the techniques color from green to orange. Once his hands gained the orange glow, he grabbed her by the hamstring and applied pressure.
Chun Li, for her point of view, was experiencing the most peaceful sensations, before the wind was knocked out of her. She released a surprised sound that resembled combination between a moan and a gasp. This also got Li Fen to snap out of her trance and pay attention to what was going on to her Jiejie.
Chun Li was now using her forearms to hold her upper body up, as he eyes were closed. A bright blush was spreading fast across her face as a combination of soft gasps and moans were being released from her mouth. "Sorry Chun Li for startling you, just bear with it for a bit more, I need to get a little deeper." He readjusted he hold, moving his hands slightly closer to where the hamstrings and gluts connected. Once he felt that spot, he knew that he needed to get rid of that. Taking his hands off her body, he essentially used a palm strike to the same spots.
Chun Li again felt the wind knocked out of her. Pure, intense pleasure was all she felt. Her blush got bigger, as it looked like she wanted to scream, but nothing was coming out. Finally, he cut off the chakra flow and remove his hands. His job was done.
(Fluff Scene 2 End. Again, sorry about this, last fluff scene for the chapter.)-SpodeSP
"Phew, sorry about that Chun Li, you had an enormous amount of tension in that area. With my massage, I can remove spots like that." Normally, a standard massage can't detect these areas. With his technique, he can locate these hidden spots and remove them. Usually, clients have similar reactions as to what Chun Li just had.
"Hm, Chun Li, you, ok?" Chun Li hasn't moved since he finished the massage, unlike Li Fen, who was completely relaxed at the of the massage, Chun Li seemed out of breath as a light layer of sweat formed on her body from the intensity of the experience. Her eyes were also closed as well.
Li Fen grew a little concerned over her sister and looked towards Naruto, "Is she ok?". Naruto looked back at Li Fen and nods, "Chun Li has a Chi-based stiff spot. Essentially, I've discovered that continuous usage of Chi can cause a lot of strain on the body. Normal massages don't seem to be enough to remove them. I found those types of spots on your sister's back legs, and gluts." As he explained, Chun Li slowly recovered and began to listen in as well.
"Chun Li's tension seem to build up from years of constant usage of Chi. Since you don't have that much experience using it, you didn't have any of these spots, or at least the base level of my technique was enough to remove them." Chun Li now fully recovered, sat up bringing the attention back to her.
While giving her a sheepish grin, Naruto stated, "My bad Chun Li, I probably should've given you a warning before I did it. I just felt the large amount of tension and kind of did it without thinking. Sorry if I mad you uncomfortable." He states while also rubbing the back of his head.
With a cough, Chun Li responded, "I can't say that it wasn't needed. I have to admit, that was by far the best massage I've ever had. " She got up from the bed, re-tied her robe, and begin to slowly go through some of her warm-up drills. "I feel reborn. No pain or stiffness at all." No wonder people were excited about this massage. It was the best experience ever.
Naruto chuckles as Chun Li continues to go through the motions, "I'm glad you like it. You guys can chill here for a bit, Melissa will return to escort you both to the herbal bath." He begins to walk out before turning back to face them, "It kind of goes without saying, but can you guys keep my name a secret. For some reason, my boss doesn't want me to be known to the world, something about rivals and stuff." With that he states his final good-byes before walking out.
Lobby of Lab Style Beauty Salon
6:15pm:
The sister's spent the last 30 minutes of their spa session in the herbal bath and sauna. Once they made it back out of the changing rooms, they changed and returned to the lobby. "Ms. Li, I hope you and Ms. Fen enjoyed you stay. Feel free to visit us again." With that, Mrs. Miyu gave them complementary hygiene bags, with sample size personal hygiene products.
As the sister dual left, one thing was clearly on their minds. They couldn't wait to return and hopefully, get to experience the best massage technique ever done. Chun Li herself couldn't get the fact that she learned a little more about her student. These next few training sessions are going to all the more enjoyable.
Your just full of surprises aren't you Naruto. With that, both Li Fen and Chun Li head towards the bus stop, heading home for the day.
End Note:
And there you have it folks. Looks like things are starting to heat up between Naruto and the sister pair. Once again, while there is no pairing, I will try to create a natural and believable way all the girls can form a deep bond with Naruto. I haven't yet decided on a pair, so for now, I'll focus on developing stronger bonds.
I was actually thinking this chapter was going to be shorter than the others due to its nature. Yet, I was able to get nearly 10,000 words on this chapter. Whether that is a good thing or a bad thing, you guys can let me know.
Again, I'm sorry for the filler chapter. This is likely the last filler chapter for quite some time, so for those that liked it thank you.
PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT THE POLL I CREATED ON MY PROFILE. I need some opinons on the structure of the story.
Alright, once again, I am still on that life grind so I can't guarantee a quick update. So, for now please be patient, feel free to provide feedback, and I thank you once again for liking my story so far.
Here's to the next chapter, see you soon! ^_^
