Hello guys. Welcome back to the sixth chapter of this fic. Last chapter has been one rollercoaster to write out and now, we got some more bits to cover. Now, we got the end of the fight and some voting going on.

The reply to the Guest Reviewer Sev on the sixth of July.

So you're around my age? You do sound indeed a bit naïve and the whole thing of patriarchy and matriarchy. I don't think there's one particular path in life and the whole things aren't great. You do make it a bit hard to reply though.

If you want to read something like you requested, I'd suggest you take a look at my older Hacker Fics where there is a tech that alongside it.

Currently, I got enough requests on my plate and writing an entire series about your entire idea of the whole thing of the Infinite Stratos, I pass up big time.

I got nothing else to go on. If I would make a series like that, there would be no conflict, no fraction so that would make it a tad boring if you ask me. So nope, I am not going to write it out.

As I said, read up my older Hacker fics, it might be to your liking.

Started on 23/06/2020.

Ended on 27/06/2020.

When the fight was over, Madoka was greeted by her big sister who had a grin on her face. Deactivating the Kuroshiki, Chifuyu walked over to the girl.

"What do you think, Chifuyu-nee?" With a grin, the Brunhilde lifted the girl up. "Excellently done, my sweet sister. A little bit brutal and devasting attacks but one good job." Putting Madoka down, Chifuyu grinned at her.

"It's still not decided. We'll have to see the votes coming through between you and Ichika." Madoka shook her head when Chifuyu told her that.

"Big sis, I didn't partake in this fight to get the voting. I did it because I wanted to kick that Brit's butt. If I don't get elected, that doesn't hurt me."

"Did an excellent job on that regard." A voice shouted to her but Joel was quicker as he ran to her. Without any hesitation, Madoka caught him and lifted her up like he was a little boy. Now, she understood why Mattheus loved carrying him around. In walked, Ichika, Houki, and Mattheus.

The last one had spoken the lines and Ichika smiled while Madoka gave him a grin.

"So it means that one of you two are going to be elected for the job?" Joel asked while Madoka tickled him a bit. She gave him back to Mattheus who lifted the boy to his neck.

"Well, sure. I think that is up next to this thing. But first, Madoka. I think we are going to celebrate later." Houki told her future sister in law who smiled at her. "Now, if you all don't mind, I'll need some shower. I'll catch you guys up later."

With that, the five walked off while Madoka to the shower. But before she would do that, she turned to her sister. "Orimura-sensei. Would you happen to know where the medics have taken Alcott?"

"Any particular reason why you should know that, Orimura?"

Madoka looked at her sister who had her arms crossed. "I won from her in this fight. In a pretty spectacular fashion. I would rather snuff out any negative feelings from her towards me or my older brother." Chifuyu sighed.

If Madoka could defuse her, that would save the class some problems later. And she wouldn't have the problems to deal with.

"Very well. You can find her in the Infirmary. But don't rub it in her face." With that, Madoka ran off. "Can't believe that she came from me." With that, Chifuyu sighed and walked back. It would be one early night for her.

Madoka had found the infirmary and found that Cecilia was up. The blue eyes went to the youngest Orimura with an accusing look. Madoka just sighed as she walked in.

"Come to rub in your victory?" Madoka crossed her arms when she looked at the girl.

"How are you?" Madoka asked in a neutral tone.

"I'll live. My IS protected me. I got just a few bruises." Cecilia admitted while she still glared at Madoka.

"And your ego," Cecilia added one glare while Madoka rolled her eyes.

"Why are you here?" Madoka took a chair and put it next to the bed.

"To tell you the reason why you lost. You can add all stuff to the fact that I am more skilled. You want to know how I got there."

"Because you got a custom made IS by Tabane Shinonono." Madoka rolled her eyes.

"That's half the reason. The other half came from the fact that I trained damn hard to get where I am now. I don't know if you keep track of it but I am the little sister of Chifuyu Orimura. The first Brunhilde. One of the strongest women on the planet."

Cecilia stewed over that while she looked at Madoka. "It wouldn't have mattered if you fought my brother. Well, it'd be one different fight, that's for sure but the outcome would be the same. Ichi-nii would have fought differently. He doesn't have a gun but that wouldn't have mattered. God knows how many times my brother defeated me."

The mouth of the blonde went open. "Your brother won? From a woman." Madoka nodded.

"Yes, he did. Gender and background are one thing. Skill and weapons are another. My brother is my blood. He is as strong as I am. Maybe stronger. If you would have swallowed your ego, trained a bit, it would have been a challenge." Cecilia glared at her but she couldn't fight back. Madoka sighed.

"Don't keep it as a grudge. Heaven knows that I have done that myself plenty a times. Just learn it and keep that in your head." With that said, Madoka leveled a glance at her.

"And don't forget this, Cecilia Alcott. I trained under the Brunhilde, Chifuyu Orimura, I'm her blood, her little sister, Madoka Orimura. My brother is Ichika Orimura. But we learned a lot more by training under her than following her shadow." And with that, Cecilia looked at the back of the girl. Flopping at the bed, she began to think.

"What a woman."

The whisper wasn't heard by anyone else. It was the first time she was this shaken by one person.

When Madoka was out of the infirmary, she was just happy to be outside. She would catch up with the group. They were at the table. The celebration was in a few days and so there were some preparations. Still, she would train with Ichika and Houki. Maybe rope the other two in this.

The table was in an easy talking. And when Madoka joined, a chair was shown. She sat down and the five resumed in their easy-going talking.

Meanwhile, Cecilia had fallen asleep and in her dreams, she slowly began to dream and think. Something played in her mind. The faces of two persons played. Young faces, similar ones.

She could place them. The twins were just friendly and smiling at her.

Her body noticed the changes as she felt something dripping down.

The next day

The entire classroom was now outside, dressed into skin-tight suits. Ichika was wearing the same one although his one was cut open so his navel and stomach were shown. The only one who stood out was Mattheus.

While the Infinite Stratos suits were normally skintight like a swimsuit that hugged to the better piloting and was basically useless in anything else, Mattheus was wearing different clothes. A heavy set of trousers, tied up with a huge belt. He was wearing one heavy jacket with underneath a sweater, a long-sleeved T-shirt, and a short one.

But they couldn't see that rest of the clothing. And sure, the guy got looks from everyone. Chifuyu walked in. She was wearing a white jersey for training while Maya was wearing a green one.

The homeroom teacher put one hand on her hips while she had her hair tied up in a ponytail. She looked over the group.

"For this lesson, we will now have a practical session on IS basic flight maneuvers. But before we continue, Adjzof." The older guy looked at her.

"Yes teacher," he had some easy grin on his face while he walked to her.

"Could you tell me about your wardrobe?"

"Yes. Well, Joel removed anything unnecessary on my Infinite Stratos. The whole thing on those suits is because they make it easier to warm and cool the Pilot down, right?"

His teacher nodded and Mattheus shot her one crooked grin. Chifuyu got a hunch that he was going to tell her something.

"Indeed," Chifuyu replied.

"Well, the whole thing is that the suits aren't made with a guy in mind. Now, I don't think that's a bad thing for a woman but teach. That isn't easy to wear. So I like to keep things free down there. I don't like clothes skin tight."

The woman crossed her arms. "So you're saying it's tight on your chest or arms?" Pointing down, Chifuyu looked at the crotch.

"Down there, yeah. It's no fun to have it tight there. I don't know how but Ichika got freedom down there. But I lack that budget so we went for the easy route."

"Removing basic functions is the easy route?" The Brunhilde shook her head when she heard it.

"Yep," Joel said with a cheeky grin. He was wearing a sweater and some longer shorts while grinning at Mattheus.

"I don't blame him for the stuff. It was fun. Sides, the whole thing was pretty beaten. It was easier for me to remove. Same for Mattheus. He gotta wear heavy clothes. Or get used to the cold." With that, Joel just stood next to the teacher.

"In any case, I was saying we would a practical session. Adjzof. I want to see your Infinite Stratos. Orimura, you're also up." The twins shared a look with each other and back to their sister.

"Orimura-kun, you're also up." That was good enough for Ichika. He stood next to Mattheus.

"Both activate your machines and give a demonstration flight."

The two boys nodded.

"Okay, come forth, Byakushiki," Ichika shouted. Blinding white light surrounded his body and a beautiful white machine was build around his body. A white machine that encircled his body with machinal arms. It was like white wings were above his body. His legs were also in the suit of Byakushiki.

"Let's get rocking, Lavathenian." Unlike Ichika's white light, brown was the theme of Mattheus. Two arms of Mattheus were in a big the same claws like Ichika. The Hunter had no wings like Ichika. He had a bit more armor on his chest. In his hands or claws, Mattheus got a rifle in his hands. It was like a gun was holstered in his hip.

The two boys couldn't be any more different in their machines but yet, they were both ready.

"Now fly." Mattheus grinned as he took off. "Too young and inexperienced to keep up with the older ones?" He taunted Ichika who was right behind him.

"I'll make you eat those words, old man." The two began to fly while they showed off during their flight.

"Not bad for an old man!" Ichika shouted while Mattheus turned so it was like he was seated while he was flying.

"Agreed! You still have some skill." Mattheus was flying up higher while Ichika grinned at him. Ichika would catch up with Mattheus while the older guy was just above him.

Ichika found Mattheus was built for speed. He could fly around fast while the song he had learned Madoka was stuck in his head.

He should have never looked up Wild Dances. But the two just flew around while showing off their skills. Ichika found that Mattheus was more experienced and daring.

"Never flew outside," The friendly smile asked while Ichika had caught up.

"Not really. I mean. I have some bits of experience but not too much in the open air." The older guy shrugged.

"Learn to enjoy it, pall. You need to learn to live or you're too afraid to die!"

"Okay, you two come down now. Use a power dive and then to a complete stop." The two heard Chifuyu shouting in their comms.

Mattheus turned to the voice and flipped a thumbs up.

"Ask and ye shall receive!" He shut down his machine.

While he was still fifty meters in the sky.

With a mad laugh, Mattheus went crashing down. The girls screamed as Mattheus raced to the ground. When he was close enough to the ground, he activated his Infinite Stratos so he landed safely despite the huge speed.

"That was fun." He said while the girls were all gobsmacked while Joel walked up to him. Ichika landed next to him with the same expression on his face.

Joel smirked and gave him a thumbs up while Chifuyu just shook her head when she looked at the two.

"Next time, follow my instructions when I tell you something."

"You said, dive. Didn't tell me how I should do it." Chifuyu just sighed when she noted that down.

"Either way, you both did a good job in piloting your Infinite Stratos. Although the show is clear that both of you have a different way of handling things.

In the class

Because Ichika and Madoka had chosen to work over an election instead of just going for the choice of Madoka being chosen, the votes were counted. Cecilia was out due to her loss.

It turned out that the whole voting worked out in Ichika's favor. With eighteen votes for him, he won easily. Madoka had seven while Mattheus had just three. But he wasn't a spoilsport.

So without much ado, Ichika announced that due to Madoka's victory, she would act like a Vice Class Representative. Madoka was happy when she heard that. She didn't fight for the title so, with this, she could share in the whole thing.

After that, they celebrated the party of the two. They celebrated it in the cafeteria. Mattheus found it funny as Ichika was showered by confetti. Cecilia wasn't around while Madoka was all smiling while Houki was just drinking as the girls just were all around him.

"Well, aren't you popular, Ichika." Madoka just sighed while she shared a look with Mattheus who sat back. The guys had an entire plate of chicken wings they were eating.

"Well, haven't asked for it." Ichika just sighed as Houki was looking away.

A white flash blinded the two while Madoka looked at an older girl. She had brown hair who just looked at the two.

"Hello there, I am with the newspaper club. Could I get a picture with you two? With you as well, Cecilia-chan?" She looked at the twins who just smiled.

"You mean with the three of us?" With a nod, the girl smiled at them. "You are in the center of attention. also with your personal units." The twins sighed but than Madoka turned to Mattheus who was pulled up out his seat.

"Also a picture with Mattheus and Joel." The two relented. In the end, girls surrounded them. Joel was sitting on Mattheus's hip so his face came out. Joel made a grin and the Corna sign next to Madoka. Ichika was sieged by Houki who just glared at him.

Cecilia looked at the two a bit longingly who ignored the whole thing but they could feel some bits from Houki. With that, the day finally ended.

In the classroom, the next day.

Madoka was sitting next to Mattheus who had been quiet while they listened to music. That is how they ignored the entire discussion.

"Hey, did you hear? The class representative tournament is coming up." There was a group of girls around Ichika's desk who couldn't getaway. Houki and Cecilia were there as well. The guy sighed while the girls chatted. He wasn't too sure but he could fight. He knew that.

"Oh yeah. Did you girls also hear that the class 1-2 representative changed. I heard that she was beaten by a transfer student." Another girl picked up.

"Transfer student? At this time of the year?" Ichika raised an eyebrow while he sat back. The girl nodded while she was enthusiastic.

"Indeed, supposedly, she is from China"

"Hmph, I wonder if she transferred to the ISA to study my techniques." Cecilia declares smugly.

"My sister brought you down crashing with your face in the ground. I don't think there's much to learn from that." Cecilia glared at Ichika who ignored her.

"I wonder if she is good," Ichika asked while he began to think. He wouldn't underestimate any opponents but he had some experience.

"Well, the only classes with a student with a personal IS are classes 1 and 4, so we'll be fine." A girl with short black hair told Ichika from behind him.

"That information is outdated." A voice from the door gave them the attention that she required.

"The new class representative of class 2 has a personal unit so don't expect an easy win?" Ichika's eyes bulged out his skull when he saw the girl. He sent his sister a note with his link.

'Look to your right.' Madoka did and her reaction was the same as her brother.

The person could be called petite by some with her light brown hair tied up in twin tails with yellow ribbons. Her green eyes shined in the classroom. The sleeves from the uniform were detached so that was an altered version of the uniform as a Candidate Representative.

Madoka could only curse in her head. 'Oh shit.'

Ichika could only look at her while he stood up. "Rin. What are you doing here?" He asked while he walked to her while she smirked at him.

"I told you. I came here to declare that I am the representative candidate and I'm also Candidate for China." She smiled at Ichika.

"I told you. I came here to declare that I am challenging this class."

"Rin".

"Why are you acting so cool? It seriously doesn't suit you." The twins spoke in sync while the Chinese girl turned to Madoka while the class was creeped out by the lining of the twins.

"I hate it when you two do that. Nice to see you again as well, Madoka."

Cecilia could only glare at the two. "Who is that girl to think that she can act so friendly with Ichika and Madoka?" Houki could only watch the three interact.

"So you came here to declare war on Ichi-nii. Good luck with that." Rin crossed her arms while she led back.

"I thought you'd beat her. So it was Lingying Huang you'd face." The girls now got the full name while Ichika just smirked at her.

"Well, some votes worked stuff out. So you're here to face us. I'll welcome your challenge." Ichika told her with a confident smirk.

"Enough of that. I want to know more about you." The girl was going to say more but the twins smirked when they looked over her shoulder.

Rin was hit by a fist that could have been so much worse.

"What was that for?!" Quickly, she stopped because she knew that the person wasn't someone who took bullshit.

"Chifuyu-san. Eh, good morning."

"It's Orimura-sensei. It's time for homeroom. Back to your class." She looked at the woman walking in who shared a look with her siblings who took their seats. Rin wasn't done, however.

"I'll be back later, so don't run away, Ichika!" She did as she was ordered while the twins sighed. Chifuyu just looked at them. She shared in the emotion of her sister.

That was one new girl around them. Although new, Rin was known by the Orimura's.

She shared a look with her little sister. Both Madoka and Chifuyu weren't that big a fan of the Chinese girl. Sure, she helped Ichika out his depression after Houki left but she had some tendencies that made her question her sanity.

So the lesson went by. As soon the class ended, Rin had seized the twins. Chatting, she had taken the two to their dinner. It had been abrupt, their goodbye. The same way as their reunion, it seemed. Rin had been chatting with them on the dinner spot.

"You should have told us that you were coming," Madoka told Rin while they were busy getting their food.

"Things got… complicated." Rin told the twins while Houki and Cecilia glared at them. Mattheus stood by and decided to do the best thing. Not getting involved.

"And if I told you two, I would ruin the dramatic entry." The twins kept their laughs in while Joel snorted.

"What a dramatic reunion that was," Ichika told her while she glared at the two.

"That's your fault. You two should have reacted to the meeting."

Both Madoka and Ichika had seen enough crazy shit ten times in their lives. Rin's reunion didn't even make the top fifty.

"Besides, your sister was scary as always." Madoka couldn't help but smile. Their sister was tough on Rin and well, it was just funny to watch.

"She doesn't scare me. I am just not good with her." When they got their ramen, they went to look for a table.

The question was popped that Ichika had bee dreading for. Luckily, he came prepared.

"So Ichika. How did you manage to pilot an Infinite Stratos?"

They made up some story on that regard instead of the truth. That made things easier for everyone involved.

"Not that extreme if you can believe me. I just walked in the wrong building when I went to take my test for high school. Got lost and I got there."

"Sounds like a funny story."

Houki, Cecilia, and a couple of other girls were to sit next to them while Madoka welcomed Mattheus and Joel. Both the males were quiet with their food.

"Can't be that bad." The Hunter admitted while they started eating. It wasn't.

But eating in peace wasn't allowed as two pairs of hands were slammed at the table. Ichika looked up with Madoka at the two. Mattheus and Joel didn't even register the blow.

"Ichika, I think it's time that you explained this to us," Houki demanded to know.

"Madoka-san. Who is this?" Cecilia shouted at her.

"Eh, what is going on?" Rin asked as the twins just sighed. Mattheus drove his eating up a pace.

"Rin, this is Houki. You two just missed each other. You can say that she was our friend before you moved in." Ichika introduced the two although it was clear that the feeling wasn't fun.

"Ah, nice to meet you too. I look forward to meeting you." Rin said with some spunk.

"Likewise." Houki's face lit up a bit.

"Cecilia, meet Rin. Our friend from middle school. Rin, meet Cecilia, the Representative Candidate from the United Kingdom." Madoka was the next to speak up.

"And the person you ran into the ground. I saw your fight. You're Chifuyu-san little sister. Both of you are brutal." Rin admitted while Cecilia glared at her.

The tension was broken when a burp escaped Joel. Mattheus was just drinking his cola while he didn't pay too much attention.

"Who are you two, exactly?" Rin asked while Madoka smiled at them.

"This is Mattheus Adjzof and his protégé, Joel Pearce. Mat is the Representative Candidate of Belgium and Joel is his energy."

"Yo," Mattheus said while the two finished their food. "I'm gonna get seconds. Anyone else?"

Everyone turned to Mattheus like he had declared that he had been kissed by a Cobra.

"What?" Ichika blinked at him.

"You're still hungry." Mattheus nodded several times with a grin. Joel just shook his head.

"The guy doesn't drink alcohol but he can eat." With that, Rin just looked at them. With a bit more of a look, she wanted to seize the two again.

"So where did you two learn to pilot?" Houki wanted to open her mouth but Ichika signaled to her to stay quiet about her sister.

'I'll talk later.' He mouthed to her while Rin just looked at them.

"From Chifuyu-nee. Byakushiki is pretty much a sword fighter. So it is no stretch on what we are used to. So you can say that we learned a lot from her." Ichika answered while Madoka smirked.

"I had some bit more experience. But hey, it worked out for us." Madoka told Rin with a grin. She just shook her head.

"So who do I face in the match that is upcoming?" Ichika pointed a thumb at himself and he raised his bracelet.

"Me. There was a vote going and I was elected for that. So I am your opponent. It's going to be fun for sure." The tone was set and Rin crossed her arms.

"You think that I'll lose to you. I am elected as Representative Candidate."

"So was Alcott. And yet, I wrecked her in the ground." Madoka shot back with a relaxed grin on her face.

"You two should stop imitating your sister. It's creepy that you like her so much." Houki couldn't help but agree on that regard. Ichika was one thing but Madoka was really close to her sister.

"What are you talking about? We are our own person."

The twins got a glare from the three girls and Joel.

"I hate it when you two do that creepy twin thing." The youngest of the

With that last line, the bell rang so they had to go back. Mattheus was just too late to order a second bowl so they went back to their class. At the end of the day, everyone went their separate ways. Ichika was outside training with his sister.

In the air, both were fighting using their swords. Metal clashed while the twins were still up in the sky. Both weren't tired but it felt good to have a match without holding back. They didn't use their last special power but their sword skills were something to behold.

Like one girl was looking at them. Houki Shinonono saw the two of them fighting in the sky. She found it hard to believe her eyes.

They were fighting hard and laughed loudly as both wrecked in the sky. Houki saw how they fought. In the end, the two just flew down.

Ichika saw Houki and Madoka noticed how her heart rate went up by the sight of Houki.

"Hey, I suppose you wanted me to ask something." Ichika landed next to Houki who could only reek him. Yet, his state of being only had other effects on her than disgust.

"Yes. Ichika, where do you really learn how to pilot an Infinite Stratos?" Deactivating his Infinite Stratos, he sat on the balustrade. Looking around, he grinned at her.

"Not in the open. Come see me in my room for answers." With that said, Ichika felt how his muscles ached. He needed a shower now. So with that, he left for the bathroom.

With that, he could feel the hot water running down his body while he enjoyed how the water-cooled him down. He had to be in shape. Madoka hadn't been slouching but the guy needed a bit more to push him to his limits.

When both walked out of the shower, the twins walked back to their room. Just a few minutes later, Houki swung by. Madoka opened the door while she smiled at her oldest friend.

"Come in. Ichi-nii is expecting you." He was without a shirt and the ripped body made Houki gulp when she saw him.

"Hey, Houki. So you had a question?" The young lady nodded. Ichika sighed as he motioned her to sit down. Madoka brought him a canned soda while she took one herself. After handing one to Houki, Ichika could feel his opening. After downing it nearly, Ichika began to tell her.

"You know me and Madoka were at your sis place. Chifuyu-nee called her after we were kidnapped. We had no safe place on the earth. Not without our sis around."

The twins were both hateful for each other that they were that weak. Yet, it was the love of their older sister that was what saved them.

"When we are at the lab, I told your sister I wanted to become a pilot." Houki would admit it was ridiculous if Ichika told her that.

But it wasn't the boy.

"When Madoka got an Infinite Stratos from your sister, well, I stumbled on a sleeping unit. We didn't lie about that. Just the location."

Houki looked from Madoka to Ichika.

"We trained for a year with Taba-nee. After that, we went home. Our sister resumed it. As far as she could. And that's all there's to it."

Houki just looked at the two. Despite their age, they were more mature. More hardened then her.

"I see." Was all she managed to say. She stood up and bowed to them.

"Good night, Ichika. Madoka."

"Night, Houki."

When Houki left, Madoka grinned at her brother. "You know. This would have been a perfect moment to kiss her."

Slowly, amazingly slowly, Ichika looked at his sister. The glare was hilarious to her.

"Madoka, that can wait. Besides, is it me or do you think we have more admirers in this?" Rolling her eyes, Madoka jumped on the bed.

"Well, I don't care about that, Ichi-nii. Right now, I need some sleep. You got your match in a few days." Ichika grinned and laid his head back.

"I don't forget about that one."

Meanwhile, in her own room.

Rin was asleep while she had her dreams. Beautiful figures filled her mind, actions lewd, and motions around. The faces were the same. Raven-haired, brown eyes. The bodies of them were naked and she enjoyed seeing the images.

In her sleep, she muttered. "Ichika, Madoka."

And here we end it. The chapter wasn't as long as the next one but due to my schedule and other fics out there, I wouldn't be able to write the fight and be done sooner.

Now, I could do that but that would make it a bit jumpier. Plus feedback wasn't there too much for me to push my limits.

This was more a transitional chapter with the defeat of Cecilia and the introduction of Rin.

My desktop computer is at the shop for the yearly checkup. I got my laptop now so I don't think there's that much a change to that.

I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter.

Saluut.
