Hiros.h.i.+ glared at his two companions .

"So let me get this straight," he said, folding his arms . "You've got the spirits of wars.h.i.+ps inside of you?"

"Yep!" a girl with short silver hair said . Her annoying never-ending cheerfulness made the man's eye twitch . Seriously, what was up with bubbly-types and their endless enthusiasm? Where did they get it? Could it be quashed?

"Sir!" the other girl with long black hair said, saluting . "We hope to support you the best we can . "

Hiros.h.i.+ facepalmed . So bubbles the cheery happy girl and the stoic motivated one . Just his luck . Get tasked to do something simple . They shove two pests to follow him . What a f.u.c.king drag,

"You're only useful on water, during battle . Why are you here?"

"Commander's orders, Section Leader, sir?" the black-haired girl said . "And we're perfectly capable of land-based combat . We will protect you—even take the bullet . Duty is life!"

"And I have a bow that fires airplanes!" cheered the silver-haired girl . Her innocent, maybe childish smile almost caused the man to sneer .

Hiros.h.i.+ shook his head, wondering what G.o.d he p.i.s.sed off to get shoved into this situation . Silently debating with himself, he decided to just row with it . Do his job, get it over with, get back to base for a drink .

"This is going to be a long day . State your names, soldiers . "

The cheerful girl saluted .

"Ayu, section leader, sir!" she smiled in a way that was meant to make Hiros.h.i.+ blush, but only served to secretly p.i.s.s him off . How dare she find happiness from doing the military's b.i.t.c.hwork . Oh who was he to crash her party .

The not-caring, no-f.u.c.ks-to-give, vibe took over the man again . He considered taking up smoking again, but Aiki beat that habit out of him until he cringed at every smokable thing he laid eyes on .

"Maho, section leader, sir!" the black-haired girl said .

"Make sure your things are stowed away in your hotel rooms," Hiros.h.i.+ said with a little section leader authority in his voice . "I want you back here by ten hundred . Check?"

"Check!" the girls said .

"Dismissed . "

When the young women scurried off to follow his orders, Hiros.h.i.+ frantically pulled his phone out of his pocket and dialed Aiki . She took her sweet a.s.s time to answer .

"h.e.l.lo, Ace Aiki here?" she said, though he could tell she was smiling in her voice .

"Aiki, what the f.u.c.k?" he said . "Why didn't you send me hardened soldiers?"

"Aye and Maho are quite good at their jobs, mind you," Aiki said . "Don't insult them . "

"Girls with wars.h.i.+p spirits inside of them? How much of a fool are you people going to take me?"

"Oh get over yourself, Hiros.h.i.+," Aiki said . "You're always in denial of anything you can't understand with science . They were a secret squad, just like our gifted, for a long time before the barrier between human and supernatural disappeared . "

"Okay, I get that much," Hiros.h.i.+ said, "but I'm only here to find this Rodger guy and invite him to teach . Why do I need these…s.h.i.+p girls?"

"Just another part of the buddy system," Aiki said, laughing . "They will protect you, whether you want it or not . Besides, there have been many happenings reported in Lot City . We can't possibly send you alone . " Hiros.h.i.+ sighed . Aiki continued . "Just lead them . Give them orders, whatever . Maybe they can find this Team Stone and get them back to base . "

"Fine," Hiros.h.i.+ said, unenthused . "You owe me for this . "

"I'll treat you to some beef bowls," Aiki said .

"Whatever," Hiros.h.i.+ said . "Anyway, I've got to go . "

"Hiros.h.i.+?"

"Yeah?"

"Take care . " Aiki hung up .

"What a pain in the a.s.s," Hiros.h.i.+ said softly .

Maid Café…

Ming finished off her third donut, while doing her best not to think of the calorie intake . Her friends sat in front her, stares blank . Han, Tyrone, Zack, and Peng . Zack broke the ice .

"How's your new life with your husband?" he said, grinning evilly . "Are you living together? Did you get pregnant yet?"

Ming chucked a doughnut, nailing him in the face .

"I don't want to hear grown-up talk from Mr . Emo," she snapped . "Did you find a new ice queen to replace your last?"

"No need to be so feisty, I was just messing with you," Zack said .

Peng sighed .

"Just don't, emo-boy . Ming, why did you call us here? I mean if it's to give us the release date of the next Loli Saga, then let me hug you . "

Ming's blank stare turned into a glare .

"We're still the number one team in the region—can we not hang out as friends every once in a while?"

"Tell us what's bothering you?" Tyrone said . "Besides the obvious fact that going after a guy with a harem is nearly impossible without becoming a part of it . "

Ming bit the bottom of her lip .

"So many things," she said softly . "My powers have become very active as expected, but there are so many other girls . Not to mention, some living with him . " She poked at the forth donut in the box in front of her .

"Let me guess," Han said . "You can't get him to notice you . " He cackled and made a terrible Ming impression . "Notice me senpai . " Han shrugged . "I wish I could call the guy bad news, but I was down there that day when he saved the city . I…felt the heat of the lava . I've never been so scared in my life . s.h.i.+t, I ended up throwing up my lunch . " He chuckled .

"Let's not circle the main ordeal here," Tyrone said then looked at his watch . "Almost time for cla.s.ses . Anyway . Once again, I'll have to pick up the phone and make you invite him to hang out . I'm not the harem expert, but if you're trying to compete, then you'd better make yourself noticed . We won't judge your choices . "

"I have to be honest with you," Zack said . "You should drop the idea of being romantically involved with this guy . You're beautiful . You'll have no trouble finding someone who'll give you the time of the day . Just stick to being his prophet . You know, a business relations.h.i.+p . The other girls don't really talk to you much, right? So f.u.c.k it . "

Ming did not feel better as she hoped . She really didn't want to give up so easily .

"That look in your eye," Tyrone said then nodded . "So my idea it is then,"

"You could always move in with him," Peng said . "If you're so-called going to marry the one who contracted with Amina . "

Ming was seconds from grabbing the donut box and giving the jacka.s.s a piece of her mind when the vision struck .
