I got captured. I got captured by some weird Sekirei girl. I will admit that she is cute, but she is a complete stranger who is mental! She keeps muttering things about getting someone. I didn't really get who she is muttering about, but I hope it isn't myself.
I can't move. She tied me up and gagged me. I didn't think this would happen to me. And I'm sure Akitsu-san is worrying about me right now. I'm sure all of my Sekirei are worrying about me as I have a panic in my heart that is making it beat crazy fast.
What if this girl tries to kill me? Then, if she does… wait. If she wanted me dead, why did she kidnap me? Does she want my Sekireis as well? If that's it then I will not let her get them! She will be beaten before that happens!
I was lifted over her shoulder and we jumped across lots and lots of buildings. I became more frightened as we got closer to a place she was heading and also became a little sick as the swaying was quite profound. What if no one ever finds me? I don't want to be dead because of these people. This girl might starve me to death or something.
When she stopped jumping around, I tried to look at where we were, but I couldn't see due to my front being at her back. I tried to wriggle away, but she slapped my butt! Hey! Watch where your hands are going No. 105! That's very bad touching!
"Heh, don't try to escape now. Don't worry, you'll be the honoured guest."
Honoured guest? She just wants to treat me to something? She didn't have to kidnap me. We could've talked about something that she wanted to do. I wonder what my Sekirei are going to do?
I can feel Akitsu-san panicking, and as for my other Sekirei. I feel confusion coming from them. They must be wondering why I am feeling such nervousness and fear when they think I'm with Akitsu-san.
I don't want to worry them. I just want to go home now. I bet Yukari-san is going to be thinking I've ditched her, or something. I don't want them to worry, I just want to go now. Please let me go home.
Benitsubasa-san walked into a door. When we were inside, I saw that the doors were quite large. This isn't a residence, I know that. Upon further inspection, I can see lots of different boxes around the place. They all have something written on them, but I can't see clearly as she keeps swaying.
"Aah, washboard. You're back with the 'guest' huh?"
I heard a feminine voice. She must be talking to Benitsubasa-san. Benitsubasa-san shakes with apparent anger.
"Don't call me washboard, Haihane! But yeah, I got the boy. Now, its only a matter of time."
"Good Benitsubasa. At least you didn't mess this up."
The voice, identified as Haihane-san, giggled at Benitsubasa-san. Benitsubasa-san placed me on the ground with a thud and stormed over to the one called Haihane-san.
I shuffled around to see this Haihane-san being comically slapped by Benitsubasa-san! But this Haihane-san. She is a slender woman with disheveled gray hair. She has bandages covering her form, and she has on a tattered kimono that's a dark colour. She also has a logo on the kimono, but I can't see what kind of logo as I am currently on the floor. Around her neck however is a studded choker with what appears to be a medallion hanging from it. She kind of gives off a gothic vibe, but… ugh, I don't know what it is.
"You baka Haihane! Stop insulting my intelligence!"
"Owwww! Stop hitting me you small breasted girl!"
"STOP MENTIONING MY BREASTS NOW HAIHANE!"
I-I guess she has a complex about them. Benitsubasa-san throws Haihane-san up into the air and jumps up herself! Benitsubasa-san in the air, punches Haihane-san right into the ground!
"That'll teach you!" Benitsubasa-san then came over to me, and leaned down and patted my cheek. "That's what happens when people piss me off. So, if you don't want to be on the wrong side of my anger, then don't piss me off, understand?"
Is there a way to be on the good side of someone's anger? R-Regardless, I am quite frightened right now! I simply nodded at her, so I didn't anger her. If she could do something like that to the girl with claws, then I don't want to see what she can do to a frail human like me!
"Mmmmmmmm!"
I cried out but since my mouth is covered, it only came out like that. The girl with pink hair lifted me up, and walked past Haihane-san who was twitching on the ground. She went towards a normal looking chair that looked like it would be used for a dining table and she placed me on it.
She smirked a little and went over to Haihane-san. I guess she thinks that I won't be able to run away, since my legs are tied. It's true though. There's nothing I can do right now. I'm literally stuck here. What can I do against two Sekirei? And now, I'm tied to a chair.
B-But, I can't let my emotions get the better of me. If I do, then the girls will only worry even more. But how are they going to find me? I'm so scared right now, but I need to stop it. I need to think of happy thoughts.
"So, Benitsubasa. Did he give you any trouble? Your hair seems to be a little frizzy."
Benitsubasa-san looked at me, and I looked away sadly. I want to go home. Benitsubasa-san let out a sigh, and walked over to Haihane-san, who had gotten up off the ground, and sat down on what appears to be an armchair.
"He shocked me with a taser."
Haihane-san stared at her blankly. She is looking over Benitsubasa-san's form. I don't know why either. Is she looking for damage or something? But, my thoughts didn't correspond with Haihane-san's next sentence.
"You are completely useless, like your breasts."
Benitsubasa-san stopped in her tracks, and her face became a cute pink colour. It isn't blushing, but more like anger.
"FUCK OFF WITH MENTIONING MY BREASTS ALL OF THE TIME! IT ISN'T FUNNY HAIHANE! STOP IT NOW!"
She screamed at Haihane-san who laughed right in her face! Benitsubasa-san's face twisted in anger! She stormed over to Haihane-san, and swung a fist at her!
"Aaha!"
Haihane-san danced and dodged the punch but I could see that the air around her fist shook! M-Maybe it is a different kind of punch than the ones I would be used too. She is strong though, I know that.
The dodging made Benitsubasa-san growl in anger! She clenched her right fist, ran at Haihane-san and went to land a punch at her face! However, Haihane-san bent her body and dodged the punch easily!
"Stay still!"
"If I did that, I would get hit!"
So, those two started having a mini battle. I don't think it's serious enough for a real battle. Benitsubasa-san attempts to punch Haihane-san in her midriff, but Haihane-san jumps high, does an acrobatic flip and lands behind her pinkette.
Haihane-san rushed towards the door and giggled cutely. But even then, Benitsubasa-san raised her fist, and some kind of aura gathered around it. She is looking at the floor, and her fist is also pointed at the floor!
"Extreme..."
"Benitsubasa! Don't you idiot!"
Haihane-san screamed at, which made the pink haired girl lower her fist. G-Geez, all this over something weird like a flat chest. I-It doesn't matter does it? I-I don't think she has that bad of a chest. She might have anger issues but she doesn't seem that bad. Although she could loosen these binds! They hurt!
"Alright geez. I wasn't going to do it really."
That doesn't convince me if I'm honest. She sounded like she was going to do something. I bet she was going to smash her fist onto the floor, but what would that have done? Would it have destroyed the ground?
"I'm sure. Anyway, so it went off without a hitch then? You didn't get caught or anything?"
She nodded with a sigh while sticking out her tongue. I-I don't know what to do with this. The pink haired girl looked at me again with a small smile.
"You know, you're going to come in handy. You and I have something in common. Know what that is?"
I shook my head at her. I can't answer her verbally, but I can at least shake my head at her. She gains an even wider smile, that could be called sadistic and she bent her neck.
"We have a common enemy, you and I. You're familiar with the name, Toyotama?"
I opened my eyes wide. She knows Toyotama as well? Has that girl been giving her a hard time? I wouldn't be shocked if she has, but I don't understand why she kidnapped me. I'm not her Ashikabi. I'm not anything but a target for her.
Benitsubasa-san came over to me, and sat on a nearby stool. She then looked at me with a tilted head.
"She's been chasing you for a while, hasn't she? There's no point lying, because I know that she has."
I couldn't answer her, but Haihane-san sweatdropped.
"Benitsubasa, he is gagged. How is he going to answer you back?"
Benitsubasa-san face palms with a sigh. Benitsubasa-san reached up to me, took off my gag and threw it away.
"Before you speak, there's no point in screaming. We are far away from anyone. There's no one around. Why do you think we picked this place?"
Was that a question directed at me? Or was that just her telling me about the isolated place we are at? Either way, I answered Benitsubasa-san with a small smile. If I'm able to get to her feelings, and Haihane-sans as well, they might let me go.
"Because you want to fight Toyotama without worry of others?"
"Well, I don't care about others. I just knew she wouldn't come out unless we met somewhere like this. Pretty stupid if you ask me. We could've laid a trap for her here."
"B-But why do you need me?"
Haihane-san then came over and sat on the other side of me.
"She wouldn't come out for just us. She is one of Higa's Sekirei, and as such, they basically live at a place that's hard for us to attack. And there's no telling where she is going to go around this city."
Benitsubasa-san then continues after Haihane-san.
"So we kidnapped the only target that we're sure that she is going to come for you. That's when we will get her. A chance to get rid of the person that has been giving her trouble..."
"I-I haven't though!"
"Oh, we know that. She's just got a fixation on you. And isn't it better if she's taken care of all round? If she's gone, then you don't have to look over your shoulder anymore and have fun with your Sekireis."
Haihane-san spoke in a nice tone. S-So, is this beneficial for everyone? Is it naive of me to think that the Sekirei's can just get along with one another? Is there a reason to fight with one another?
No, that's just my optimistic side. Even then, I should really ask anyway. Most likely, I'm going to get shot down, but I need to know if there's a peaceful solution between this anyway.
"Beni… Benitsubasa-san… Haihane-san..." I gave a meek voice, which made them look at me. "Is it… possible to just… become… friends with her? I know she isn't nice, but I don't think killing her is the best solution..."
"Hah! Don't make me laugh Hidaka. It's funny, becoming friends with her. Hasn't she put your life in repeated danger?"
I didn't really have an answer for Benitsubasa-san. I know that she has been putting my life in danger, but it can't be her fault, right? Maybe it is… but even then, I just want to go… now.
"S-She has."
"Then it's beneficial for you and us. Once we're done with you, you can go home and we'll forget that we met one another."
So I can go home when they have fought with Toyotama? So, I can just wait and wait until she comes. There's two here, so I don't think they would lose, unless more come… so, when more come, I need to run away. I don't have a guarantee that they will make good on their promise but I'm tied up… I need to get out of here somehow! I need to get untied… but I don't think they would just untie me...
"P-Please say you aren't lying… I'm really scared right now..."
I made a sad expression on my face and looked towards the ground. I will try what Onee-chan says I can do best. I can make people feel sorry for me apparently. It's the way I look when I'm sad. It makes people seem regretful. It always works with Onee-chan… then again she's family so she might've been lying to me.
"I-It's alright. Don't worry, we aren't going to hurt you."
Benitsubasa-san sounded sincere then. I looked at Haihane-san who was giving her a disbelieving look. Benitsubasa-san also notices it and tilts her head to the side.
"What's wrong with your ugly mug?"
"Did you just be nice?"
Haihane-san said it like Benitsubasa-san is never nice. Does she not show nice feelings when around others? But she sounded like a sweet girl when she spoke to me then.
"I can be nice if I want to be! I just choose not to be around you because you aren't a nice person."
Haihane-san looked offended by her words, and gave a little stare of anger.
"I-I'm not nice! I'm very nice, you know!?"
"Sure you are Haihane."
Benitsubasa-san sneered. Haihane-san glared. But then my stomach rumbled. I didn't even get lunch. I am hungry now. I looked down at the ground and just stared at the ground...
"You hungry?"
Benitsubasa-san asked. I nodded with a small whine. Maybe it will sound like I'm helpless. Usually, I don't like feeling helpless, but sometimes it comes in handy, like right now. I don't like playing with others feelings, but if it's to get out of this then I will just go along with it.
"Y-Yes, I am hungry."
"Me too. Benitsubasa. Cant we get pizza or something?"
Benitsubasa-san sighs, and then goes into my pocket! W-What is she doing? She pulled something out… my phone! She pulled out my phone!
"I'm just borrowing this."
"Ooh geez, another round of Benitsubasa vs the other side of the phone."
Haihane-san sighed out. What does that mean though? The other side of the phone? Does Benitsubasa-san have a fight with people on the phone?
"C-Can I have a pepperoni pizza please?"
"Oh, I'll have the same Benitsubasa."
She nodded and then pressed a few times on my phone. She then held it to her ear. I guess that she is ringing a pizzeria. I've got to say it, this is the weirdest kidnapping in the world.
"I want three pizzas..." She started off, but she gained an angry expression. "W-What!? You ran out of pizza!? It's just after 1.30 you morons! You're a pizzeria for God sake! What did you just say!? I am not a moaning bitch!"
"Ooh great. Here we go again."
Haihane-san giggled out, as Benitsubasa-san breathed heavily. I guess she is having an argument with the pizzeria.
"Who ate them all then!? Your fat mother!? You fuck off you bastard! I'm going to come down there and… don't you interrupt me you fuckers! Fuck you!"
It's getting a little heated here! I-I don't know what's going to happen now! Haihane-san is laughing at Benitsubasa-san who is yelling at the phone with so much disgust and hate. I-I guess the pizzeria is her friend.
"Haihane-san..."
She looked at me.
"What is it?"
"D-Does this happen often?"
"More than you know. Phones aren't exactly her best friend."
They aren't her best friend huh. It isn't like she doesn't know how to use mine so… what does that mean? Benitsubasa-san, who is yelling, punches the wall! T-The wall has a crack in it! T-That's some scary stuff!
"THAT'S IT! SHUT UP! JUST SHUT YOUR UGLY FACE AND LET ME TALK TO YOUR MANAGER! YA GOT IT!?"
She yelled and then went silent. The person must be getting the manager so they can speak to… Benitsubasa-san then cried/screamed!
"UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
"For God sake, she can't even order pizza right."
Benitsubasa-san glared at Haihane-san who was on the floor laughing a little. I couldn't do anything but watch as Haihane-san laughed and Benitsubasa-san yelled at her.
"IF YOU THINK YOU CAN DO A BETTER JOB THAN ME, THEN GO AHEAD AND DO IT THEN BITCH!"
"F-Fine, give me the phone and I will do a better job."
Benitsubasa-san rather violently handed the phone to Haihane-san who dialled a number and held it to her ear.
"Hello, I would like three pizzas please. Yes, I can pick them up no problem. Yes, I would like two pepperoni pizzas and one seafood pizza, and a bottle of coke please. Yes, that's right. How much does that come too? ...I see, alright, you take care as well. Thank you, bye."
Haihane-san pretty much just ordered the food. I guess Benitsubasa-san likes seafood pizza. But… Benitsubasa-san has a very disbelieving look on her face. Haihane-san however comes over and places the phone back into my pocket.
"H-How in the hell...?"
"See, half an hour. The pizzas will be ready."
"Oh for fuck sake! Why do I get the bastards and you get a saint most likely!? This isn't fair!"
Haihane-san just shook her head a little, shaking her hair.
"It isn't my fault that I have better people skills than you do."
Benitsubasa-san shook her head in annoyance. She then looked at me. I looked back at her, with a pained smile.
"Is something wrong, Hidaka?"
I don't know how she knows my name, but she does and she actually sounds concerned.
"M-My wrists, hurt. C-Could you please untie me? I promise not to run away. It isn't like I could outrun either of you anyway, you know?"
"Y-Yeah, right. Sure, I'll untie you. Just don't get any funny ideas."
"I-I promise."
Benitsubasa-san untied my wrists. I brought them to my lap and rested them. It hurts. Benitsubasa-san however takes my hands, and inspects my wrists.
"I think I tied them too tight. Sorry about that."
Haihane-san gave Benitsubasa-san an even more disbelieving look.
"Okay, who are you and what have you done with my flat chested friend?"
"Fuck off Haihane! Stop mentioning my chest!"
"Now, there's Benitsubasa! Well, I'm going to get the pizza. Don't have any fun when I'm gone."
Benitsubasa-san waved off Haihane-san who ran out of the door. I then noticed that Benitsubasa-san was holding my hand, quite gently. I-I don't know what's going on right now. Is she my enemy or not?
"Benitsubasa-san..."
"What?"
"N-No. It doesn't matter Benitsubasa-san. I'm just glad that you're kind."
I tilted my head with a small smile on my face. Benitsubasa-san's face turned a shade of pink, before shaking that off and looking away from me.
"Don't be stupid!"
So I'm being stupid huh. I'm okay with being stupid. But my kidnapping hasn't turned out that bad really, so far. Even if my wrists hurt, they aren't bleeding or anything. I'm not going to get an infection from the binds.
𖦹𖦹𖦹
… An hour later, Haihane-san got the pizzas and we all sat on the ground, enjoying them quite nicely. This is a strange situation. I got kidnapped, and now I'm actually having a little fun with them.
"Then, listen to this Hidaka-san. Benitsubasa there, once actually tried to have a fight with a toddler!"
"A-A toddler?"
Haihane-san laughed and nodded. Benitsubasa-san gained an annoyed face.
"Hey! In my defence, that toddler was giving me lip!"
"Sure he waaaaaaaas."
"Shut up Haihane! Don't you give me lip either!"
I had to laugh a little. For kidnappers, they aren't so bad. But I wonder how long this is going to last? This person, Toyotama I mean is going to come soon, isn't she? As we talked with one another, I couldn't help but think that they couldn't be bad. Even if they did kidnap me, and Benitsubasa-san is prone to anger, they can't be all that bad, can they?
"Benitsubasa-san, would you like to try some of my pizza?"
I offered. She smiled and took a slice, while putting a slice of her own pizza in the place of the slice she just took. S-She's being nice to me. I-I am shocked yet happy.
"Benitsubasa, you are acting strangely. Is something wrong with you?"
"What are you on about now Haihane? I'm acting like the normal me."
"No, you're not. But let me ask you something." She sighed and nodded at Haihane-san while taking a bite of the pizza. "You have contacted or made it known somehow to Toyotama that we have Hidaka-san here, right?"
Benitsubasa-san blinked once. She blinked again. She blinked a third time, then face palms.
"Oh for fuck sake! I completely forgot to do that!"
"For God sake, your brain is the smallest thing in the universe, just like your breasts."
Benitsubasa-san's face convulses in anger and she points her hands at Haihane-san!
"JUST FUCK OFF HAIHANE! STOP COMMENTING ON MY BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOBS!"
I had to cover my ears as she screamed a little loudly. Haihane-san did the same thing, and sighed also in frustration.
"So we have been waiting here for nothing then? What a genius you are."
Benitsubasa-san gains watery eyes and turns away sadly.
"S-Shut up. L-Leave me alone."
"Crying isn't going to get you anywhere."
...! A-A new voice? I looked and saw...
"Y-You. What are you doing here?"
"Benitsubasa, Haihane… and you. Why are you here?"
The woman who is dressed in a tight black leather top, a miniskirt and stockings. She's wearing an over the shoulder haori that's gray in colour. Her hair is gray, that's long but it's tied into a ponytail with matching gray eyes.
She said something about me being here. When she looked at me, she looked kind of angry. W-Why is she angry? I've never met her before, so why is she looking at me with such a look?
"Karasuba-sama, why are you looking at Hidaka like that?"
Benitsubasa-san asked. The woman draws a long blade, like a katana and points it at me.
"You, are going to die!"
S-She's going to kill me!? W-Why is she going to kill me!? I...don't want to die. My Sekireis aren't here… I'm scared now.
