An Ashikabi of a Different Feather

~Some slight AU (such as some Sekirei being paired with different Ashikabi, etc). OC x Akitsu/Saki/Uzume, will have others in future. Rated M now, rating increased from T for safety for some language, violence and nudity and adult situations. Possible Lemons in future, not confirmed as yet due to the fact I've never written a Lemon before.

~Disclaimer- I don't own anything from Sekirei, only my OC's.

AUTHORS NOTES AND SUCH STUFF!

I have closed the old poll down and started a new one. The new one is more streamlined and has some of the more popular choices are on it. As well as some Sekirei I think may fit better with Logan's flock than others. Please vote! Already, confirmed for Logan's flock so far are; Akitsu, Saki, Uzume, Homura and Miya. Semi-confirmed are Yume and Yomi. If you feel I left someone out of the poll or have thoughts/suggestions on those on the current poll or on my "confirmed/semi-confirmed list" feel free to PM me :D All the choices on this current poll I'm currently throwing around my head on how I would/could add them to Logan's flock lol. Also, I've had some readers be surprised that I was doing a "Yaoi" pairing with Homura. Well nope lol, as in the anime by the time he is winged, the 'feminization" process will have already started and he will be at least half female. I'm(as well as Logan) aren't into the whole "chicks with dicks" thing…futa or w/e it's called o.O After being winged "he" will turn "she" a lot faster than in the anime/manga, though Homura will still think like a guy for a while and in a lot of ways even after his/her body as gone completely female. I just thought there was way too much humorous and awkward situations to turn down having a former male turned female Sekirei in Logan's flock as he is VERY straight lol.

Also, since I am stealing Uzume from Chiho, and I really like Chiho as a character, what do you guys think? Should I make her an Ashikabi in my fic still? And if so, who should she wing? I was actually throwing around the idea if Logan or Minato doesn't wing Yashima she being winged by Chiho perhaps. Also, are there any Sekirei you would like to see added to Minato's flock? Since I am stealing one of his Sekirei?

Also, in regards to upgrading this fic to "M" and adding Lemons like a lot of my readers are asking for…what do you all think? If enough of you think I should try Lemons I will, just be cognizant that I have never written one before lol. I also have never really written romance before -_- Just be aware that also this will not be a smut fic. If the time isn't right and it won't flow with the chapter there won't be a Lemon in that scene/chapter. Also Logan is not one to just sleep around, especially since he is starting to understand how important this bond is to these women. I mean it's not like they will be a one night stand, he is freaking bonded to these girls for LIFE.

Now I apologize for the tardiness of this chapter, as I previously said I wanted to have a chapter of this fic out at least once a week and I'm at least a few days late. Been busy on the chapter 3 of my Mass Effect fic ( A Blast from the Past.) as well as the two first chapters of my Warcraft fic. (Here there be Dragons.). Also had family over this weekend unexpectedly. And now let me say this; thank you SO much all of you, especially those that have reviewed. (Curse all you sneaky stalkers out there :P ) I am really surprised at the feedback and reception I got on this story as Sekirei isn't as popular as a lot of other anime/manga out there. Took a look at my Legacy story stats for this fic and was shocked to see that it has over 2,300 views in a month! O.O

Also just found out I have drill this weekend for the first time since like last May since my National Guard unit has been in Afghanistan since around then and I didn't have to deploy with them due to my prior deployments, so I will be flying over to the other side of the state for drill Friday afternoon and flying back Sunday night so I will not be able to respond to reviews/PMs till I get back so don't worry, I won't be ignoring you guys. And when I got back Sunday night I was quite tired and think I got something from someone on the plane and slept from 6 PM on Sunday night to 9AM Monday morning…stayed up a few hours then laid back down for like 5 more hours. -_- So sorry for the delay on this chapter.

Does anyone else think that it's odd that there isn't an option to search for Akitsu in the character search function? O.O

Also, my little brother, who is one of my readers and has a lot of the same experiences as me and personality(Army combat vet,etc) has asked me if he can have a semi-self insert of himself as a OC in this fic or a possible future Sekirei fic or even an offshoot fic of this one. If I did this he requested Kazehana as his first Sekirei, which I think would fit him and his OC well as they both like to drink and party a hell a lot more than me or Logan. Also that he is a hell a lot more…perverted?...than me or Logan lol. Let me know what ya guys think?

Chapter 4

As Logan seated himself in what appeared to be the living room he looked around, admiring the décor. A giggling Saki plopped down on his right side while her head never stopped moving as she gazed around the room and a quite Akitsu gracefully on his left, albeit a good deal closer than Saki. He noticed a light blush to the ice maiden's cheeks when she saw him look at her. This caused a small grin to appear on his face which turned to a smile as the purple haired landlady made her appearance with a tray with several cups. Seating herself she offered a cup to each of the visiting party before seating herself.

"Thank you Asama-san….whoa…this is some really good tea….what is it?"

His question was echoed by the spy girl to his right as well as an interested look on ice woman's face on his other side as her gaze split between her Ashikabi and the maker of such a good beverage.

"Oh my….I'm glad you approve…..however…..it is a secret."

The expectant atmosphere in the room was abruptly broken as the landlady giggled out her answer with an amused and mysterious air about her. Logan had to suppress the urge to face palm, while Saki nearly face planted and Akitsu merely blinked.

"….Secret family recipe huh?..."

He commented with no small amount of bemusement. He got an odd, little laugh from the woman in return.

"..Something like that….now….onto business…..you said you were interested in board?"

"Yes ma'am….my old…residence….was heavily damaged in a fire a week and a half ago, so I am in need of new housing. Been staying in a hotel since then while I looked for boarding and so…here I am…"

He blinked in slight confusion and curiosity as the landlady gave her odd little laugh again while covering her mouth. He had noticed from the moment she had let them into the house and led them to the living room that her movements were amazingly graceful. No wasted movement, an ease to the way she moved herself about.

"Odd…..is she a dancer?...or something else?...Martial Artist?..."

He pondered before being broken from his thoughts as the mystery woman began talking once again.

"Oh….that's awful…I am glad to see that you are okay Logan-san…Now….let us continue. The cost of rent here is fifty thousand Yen. That isn't going to be a problem is it?"

Logan blinked in surprise.

"Fifty thousand Yen? That's it? That's what….Fifty something dollars?... Oh, there won't be any problem at all Asama-san. I was expecting MUCH more than that for a place as nice as this."

Miya gave that little laugh once again.

"Ara, ara Logan-san…..flattery won't get you a discount."

At his obvious confusion the woman smiled before continuing.

"Now….I am sorry to pry…but I need to know that you have a source of income….or are able to acquire one."

He smiled back at her as he answered.

"Yes ma'am….I'm actually a Sargent in the Army..…American Army. I work as a MP…Military Police…..at Camp Tyler. So you won't have to worry about not receiving rent Asama-san."

"Ah...that is very good Logan-san. I knew you were a foreigner but not an American. It will be…interesting….to have an American under my roof."

She for the first time since she had first opened the door gazed upon his two female compatriots.

"Now….who are these two lovely young ladies with you?...Are they perhaps….your girlfriends?"

Logan had unfortunately taken the last bit of his tea into his mouth and nearly spit it out in his surprise. He ended up choking on it a bit as he swallowed it instead, not wanting to dirty his new land ladies flooring when he hadn't even moved in yet. His awkward situation turned worse as the both ladies beside him broke into blushes and to his surprise Akitsu suddenly spoke up.

"…Ah…yes."

Those simple, yet quite words caused a blush to appear on his face due to the misconceptions they may induce. Not helping was the odd laughing from the lavenderette across from him.

"Ara, ara…..Logan-san how…bold…of you…..having not one but two such fair maidens under your sway…..am I to be afraid of my purity? Are you going to turn my modest little home into a den of depravity?...Oh my…whatever should this poor widower do?..."

Logan's eyes widened comically at her insinuations.

What?!...Miya…I mean…Asama-san…it's not like that…err…while Akitsu and I are…in a relationship…..Saki and I are…friends…I'm helping them out, Akitsu has no place to go but Saki already has an apartment."

Logan frowned slightly as he saw the look on Saki's face at his comment but went back to trying to convince his new land lady that he wasn't some sort of playboy or anything. Which he was interrupted by amused laughter from the doorway to the room they were in.

"Ahaha! These people are funny…..who are these people Miya?"

Logan and company turned to the doorway and he immediately broke into a blush and repressed the urge to rub his nose as girl appeared in the doorway, and happened to be in her skivvies. The first thing he noticed was of course the light pink nightie that did nothing to hide her "gifted" chest and the fact she wasn't wearing a bra was quickly evident. She was even more endowed than Akitsu he guessed, if a thing was actually possible and on her frame they stood out a lot. Her only other article of clothing was a matching pair of light pink panties. She was about the same height as Akitsu and Saki with a side ponytail holding up her brown hair and brown eyes that held a cheerful and mischievous glint to them.

"Ara…..Uzume-chan…indecent behavior…including running around in nightwear…..is strictly prohibited…in Izumo Inn…"

Now the words themselves didn't seem to have that big of an effect on the rooms occupants. What did was an oppressive aura that the seemingly gentle landlady was exuding. He was shocked at the feeling of freaking out that he was experiencing, his fight or flight instincts kicking in. But it was nothing compared to the reactions she was getting from the girls. Saki was hiding behind him, literally shivering in fear. Akitsu's eyes were opened to their max as she stared, open mouthed in shock at the landlady. Now as for Uzume, she had broken into a sweat and was trembling in defensive crouch as if she was attempting ward off an attacking creature of the night. A nervous laugh escaped her.

"Haha….Miya…at least I'm wearing underwear this time."

Logan stopped his hand in mid motion as it moved to his nose as he got a quick mental picture. Miya indicated Logan and his group with a hand.

"These are our new residents Uzume-san. Logan-san, Akitsu-san and Saki-san. They will be taking room 204…so they will be your neighbors. This here is Uzume, a resident here and she lives in room 203."

"Nice to meet you….?!"

Uzume paused mid bow as her eyes landed on Logan, her eyes widened and a blush came to her face as she stared open mouthed at the male. A frown broke out on Logan's face as the girl he had just met suddenly froze before dashing over to the land lady, kneeling beside her and whispering urgently in her ear.

"Miya!...I…I think I'm reacting to that man!"

Miya blinked and glanced between the male and her indecently dressed tenant.

"…Ara?...Are you sure?..."

Uzume paused before replying.

"…Umm…..I think so….."

Logan blinked in confusion and attempted to quell his curiosity at the conversation the two women were having. However he turned his attention to the doorway once again as he heard footsteps coming down the hallway.

"Miya…..what's all the noise…?!.."

As the speaker appeared in the door way Logan was surprised by what he saw. A male, about five foot seven or so with a lean build. His most striking features were his "pretty boy" looks that bordered on effeminate and his silver-ish hair. Brown eyes scanned the room and met Logan's as they studied each other before they moved to the two females at his side. His eyes just glanced over Saki before focusing on Akitsu and especially her forehead where she was marked and his eyes widened. The man was dressed in a loose, white button up shirt and black slacks.

"Sekirei…..and the discarded number…..he must be an Ashikabi…."

Mused Homura as his gaze moved to Miya as she spoke.

"Ah, Kagari-san….these are some new residents here. This is Logan-san, he is a American soldier at the base near here. With him are Saki-san and Akitsu-san….They will be moving into room 204, next to Uzume….This is Kagari-san, he is also a tenant here."

Logan stood and made his way over to the man, extending his hand.

"Nice to meet you Kagari…..good to see that there's another guy here and I'm not as outnumbered as I thought."

The silver haired male took his hand after a moment's hesitation and gave an abbreviated bow over their clasped hands.

"Pleasure to meet you as well Logan-san…."

Logan noticed that the man seemed to unconsciously exude charm as he turned to owner of the household.

"Miya…don't worry about making dinner for me. I just got called and was asked to come into work. Also….don't expect me back tonight….I am being told that they are very busy tonight…"

He said as he made his way over to the land lady, took her hand and suavely kissed the back of it, receiving a rapidly growing familiar mouth covered giggle from said lady. With that the charmer left the room and Logan's curiosity got the better of him.

"Asama-san…If you don't mind answering…where does Kagari-san work? I noticed he was mighty well dressed and it's beginning to get late as the sun is starting to go down."

"Oh, Kagari-san works as a host at a host club. He often works late hours…"

Logan's gaze made its way to the doorway.

"Oh…that makes sense….he's got that whole Bishon…..whatever it's called….pretty boy look down pat. That's pretty popular among quite a few females isn't it?..."

"Ara, ara….does Logan-san sound jealous?..Fufufu…"

She received a snort and a look exhibiting his obvious disdain for her comment before his eyes happened to meet the scantily clad girl still seated next to his tormentor. As their eyes met she gasped, which in her get up did….interesting…things to her chest…..and broke into a pronounced blush. At the gasp, she also received a concerned look from the seated land lady as well. Then he heard a gasp from his right and Saki was leaning into his ear whispering.

"Logan-san! Care! I think that girl is a Sekirei!"

His eyes glanced over her again, inducing another blush, before he whispered back to his spy girl.

"You sure?...What makes you say that?"

"…I don't really know…That's just the vibe I'm getting from her."

"Alright….just be careful…..don't ever be alone with her. We don't know if she is a threat as she hasn't exhibited any hostile intent…but…just be wary…. I'll let Akitsu know as well."

He received a happy smile from the Kunochi-ish female on his right as he leaned over to Akitsu, an action that caused a blush to stain her cheeks, and whispered in her ear.

"Be careful Akitsu…Saki believes the female in the…err…pink…clothing…may be a Sekirei. Don't be alone around her until we know her intentions okay?"

He received a nod from the ice maiden with a small increase in her blush. A slightly confused look momentarily appeared on his face before it turned into a mischievous grin as he realized the cause of her blush. Leaning in even closer this time he let a slightly exaggerated breath escape him directly onto the back of her ear. Poor Akitsu's color turned quickly nova-like in her blush as her eyes slammed wide open and her back snapped straight as a board.

"What's wrong Akitsu-chan?.."

He whispered into her ear, his grin growing and becoming even more vulpine. This time his actually blew softly on her ear which to his surprise caused a soft, gasping moan to escape the woman as she did this odd yet insanely cute little squirm. He suddenly came back to earth as at Akitsu's intriguing little outburst he heard two echoing gasps from around the room and he remembered there was other occupants in the room and a dark blush broke out on his face.

Saki was blushing madly, her eyes refusing to meet his for any longer than a second, yet oddly her gaze couldn't seem to leave him. Across the room he was even surprised that he thought he caught a slight blush grace the cheeks of the unflappable lavenderette. But the biggest reaction was from Uzume, as her eyes had a slight glazed look to them, her breathing was pronounced, causing her not insignificant chest to move in absurdly distracting ways. He noticed once again that even with that faint hint of a blush, Miya began exuding that forbidding aura once again. Yet overriding the growing sense of doom was his concern and confusion at the buxom female to her right.

"Umm….Miya…err…Miya-san….is she okay?...That doesn't look…..normal."

He received a slightly confused look from Miya before her gaze found Uzume and her eyes widened.

"Oh Kami-sama! She is reacting….and strongly too."

"Oh my…it seems she may have had too much excitement. I will take care of her if you all want to go get acquainted with your new room. There are some spar futons in the closet. As it is getting late I will get the bath started for you all. Oh…and before I forget…I should inform you of the few rules of Izumo Inn. There will be no violence…no illicit behavior….and I do not accept any form of card or other payments from MBI…also….I expect my tenants to help out around the Inn when it is needed. Cleaning and such, we can go over such things tomorrow. Breakfast is at eight am. "

At her mention of "illicit acts" she sent Logan a meaningful look as she stood, leading a dazed Uzume out of the room. Blinking at how odd his new residence could be, he stood and smiled at his two ladies.

"Come on, let's go check out our room and get settled in shall we?"

"Hai Logan-san."

Saki said with a large smile and het got a blushing nod from the snow lady. Grabbing his backpack and their bags from shopping they made their way up the stairs and down to the end of the hallway to the room marked "Rm 204."

Opening the door he blinked at how simple, yet nice it was. It wasn't the biggest rooms he had ever seen, but they were plenty big for his needs. The walls and floor were pretty much bare, leaving him open to put whatever furniture and stuff on the wall he wanted to. He saw what appeared to be a small walk in closet to the side with a wooden screen door. On the back of the room were twin windows overlooking the small, but well-kept back yard.

"Yep…I can definitely work with this…"

Nodding he sat his backpack and the bags against a wall before opening the closet and finding three folded futons.

"Well that's convenient…..here…Saki…Akitsu…let's get these set up and then we can get our baths out of the way."

It didn't take very long to get the trio of futons set up, though Logan was sorely tempted to help Akitsu as she as usual accomplished her task with her slow and methodical manner. He caught movement out of the corner of his eye and saw that Miya was standing in the doorway.

"Oh my, you do work fast Logan-san…I must apologize however, as I didn't expect to get new boarders I hadn't gotten chance to dust and straighten up the room."

"That's fine Asama-san…and this is much better than some places I can think of that I have laid my head."

He received an odd look from the land lady at his comment before she continued.

"Oh…and the bath is ready whenever you feel like using it."

Smiling at the woman he began gathering a change of clothes and his bath supplies.

"Thank you Asama-san…..a bath will be very nice."

After Miya made her departure he glanced at his two female roommates.

"Alrighty…I don't know about you gals but I'm pretty beat. I'm going to take a quick bath then you two can take your time or whatever."

As he made to exit the room he suddenly felt a gentle yet firm tug on his shirt sleeve. Turning he found the source was Akitsu.

"What the?!...Christ she got across the room fast….."

He mused as saw an almost urgent look on the ice maiden slightly blushing face and noticed a somewhat similar look on Saki's face as well.

"What?...Akitsu….Saki? What's the matter?"

It seemed as Akitsu was having trouble answering him so a blushing Saki stepped forward, glancing between himself, Akitsu and the hand restraining him. For some reason he got a slightly jealous and "I wish I had thought of that" vibe from her.

"..Umm….I think I know what she wants….the same thing I do Logan-san….I…we….wish to help…wash your back…"

A small blush grew on his face at her words as he remembered that particular Japanese custom and the mental images it invoked.

"…Umm…..if you gals really want to…I guess….but….give me a little bit….I'd like to soak and have a little privacy for a little bit at first okay?"

He received a bright smile from Saki and a content look from Akitsu at his response. He beat a hasty retreat from the room making his way to the bath, a grin broke out on his face as he got his first look at the room in which the bath was. It was a modest, yet fine looking Japanese style indoor bath. Disrobing and taking his towel, body wash and wash cloth he rinsed himself off quickly before stepping into the bath. Which he felt as if he scalded the first layer or two of his skin off as he hadn't anticipated the water being that hot.

"Ow…..note to self…..no jumping into bath in the future….feel temperature first to make sure I'm not going to be cooked."

He mused as his body quickly began to relax in the steamy comfort of the quite warm bath. As he felt his soreness and worries melt away he began to reminisce over what had occurred in the last few days.

"…Let's see….found hot ass, super powered alien girl in park…fought super powered alien sword guy in said park…..got hot ass, super powered alien girl as my shadow…..beat the shit out of Japanese gangsters…..run into cute little ninja super powered alien girl….who was being chased by lighting shooting bondage chicks…..bonded to cute little ninja super powered alien girl…..found out I'm part of some demented rich guys idea of a game…..note to self….kill demented rich guy in horrible way…..okay….maybe just hurt him a little…..found new place to live…..not doing too shabby if I do say myself…..though…..would be nice if things stay quiet for a bit…."

He didn't even notice himself nodding off in the heat of the water, nor that he was no longer alone. Logan didn't hear the door open and a soft feminine gasp.

"Oh no….he….he's in here…..in the bath….naked!..."

The young woman attempted to stifle her rapid breathing and sniffled a little bit to get the small nosebleed to recede. Her massive blush had nothing to do with the ambient heat of the room as she dazedly made her way into the bath, not even registering the slight burning pains from her scalded skin. She stopped, standing a pace from the man that was causing such a reaction from herself.

"Oooooh…..I…I…I can't stop myself…..from getting closer…."

Her blush increased as she finally got a good look at the male. His foreign looks did absolutely nothing do detract from his attractiveness in her eyes, only adding to it. Her eyes traveled from his peaceful face, down his well-shaped torso, her fingers twitching as she barely resisted the urge to run her hands over him, and then under the water, where he was of course unclothed.

"..Oh Kami, Oh Kami…..must control…myself….."

She absently felt as if she may be drooling but ignored it as her eyes popped wide and her blush increasing further as the object of her intense scrutiny opened his eyes and met her gaze causing her to shiver as goose bumps broke out on her bare skin.

Logan felt himself coming back into awareness as something was telling him that something had changed around him. Opening his eyes he discovered the girl he had just met, Uzume, naked in all her glory, standing a pace in front of him. His drowsy gaze rapidly turned alert as his gaze traveled up the girls frame, over her toned legs, he tried to skip over the sight of her nether regions but he knew that sight, along with the rest of her, was flash burned into his mind. His eyes continued their upward travel over her flat stomach onto her bountiful chest, the sight made him aware that a certain part of his anatomy was awake. When his eyes met the madly flushed woman's she began to pant distractingly strongly and her legs seemed to give out before fell onto him.

Catching the troubled female he became confused and worried on top of his already precarious mental state as he nobly attempted to stifle his red blooded maleness and help her.

"..Umm…Uzume?..Yeah…Uzume's your name….what's wrong?...and what the hell are you doing in here?"

He got no response at first as she panted heavily on top of him, her chest leaning strongly against his own as she sat straddling him. He finally a response from her as her head rested against his shoulder, her hands idly making insanely distracting motions in his bare chest.

"Why?...Why am I reacting this strongly?...I've never heard of such a thing….I'm…having problems…controlling myself….."

He blinked in confusion until realization hit him, glancing down at the girls flushed face he sighed.

"So…you are a Sekirei after all…..Saki was right…..and…you're saying you're reacting to me?...As in you think I'm your Ashikabi?"

He received a nod in answer before he groaned out lowly and the female on top of him let out a gasp as she sat up, which cause her to settle lower onto his lap. His hands flashed out, securing her hips as he growled out a warning.

"Uzume!...Stop!...Please don't move….I…Oh my god woman just don't move for a moment…"

He panted as he struggled valiantly to regain some measure of self-control, his body screaming for him to do something. Attempting to distract himself he locked his gaze on her eyes, which didn't seem to help the physically distraught girl at all.

"….Are you sure that this is what you want? To be winged by me? Don't do this unless you are absolutely sure Uzume….."

The girl let out a groan as she nodded frantically.

"YES! Kami yes I'm sure….Logan…please…..cool my body down…kiss me….something…..it…it almost hurts….why….why is it so intense?..."

He frowned as he registered her words and the look she had on her face, he swore he could actually detect a little pain in her countenance. Taking her chin gently in his hand he searched her eyes for any signs of hesitancy or doubt. Finding nothing but hope and pleading in her gaze he sighed.

"….If that's what you wish Uzume….I won't stop you…..but I'm not going to initiate anything…you have to sho…!"

He was interrupted as the woman on top of him snapped forward, as if desperate and locked her lips upon his and in his surprise he didn't respond back for a few seconds. As he began to respond the slowly becoming familiar yet still unique sensation of a building energy showed its head as their kiss deepened. He started to revel in the moment as he was surprised when he felt something press against his teeth then slip through. With the realization that he was French kissing the woman he let out a groan at the same time he was absently aware of his partner moaning into the kiss. He was brought somewhat back to reality as Uzume suddenly fisted his hair and began going after him with a passion and intensity he had yet to endure from the few Sekirei he had encountered. At the same time as his hair was being pulled the pressure built until it "snapped" once again and a blinding level of emotions and feelings bombarded him. In the rush he could identify joy, contentment, relief and something he belatedly identified as lust.

Then he saw something bright shining even through his closed eyelids and cracked his eyes open to find glowing wings. This time they didn't remind him of a blade, but of cloth. They were white, I mean a white like something you would see on an angel. They flowed around the room before stopping just above the water as if they wished to envelope the lip locked pair.

Her lips left his with a wet smack as Uzume arched her back and let out a low scream, her body shaking for what seemed like an eternity to Logan's eyes as he stared at the sight before she collapsed in a limp, trembling heap on him, her breathes leaving her in ragged pants as she softly nuzzled her face into his neck.

As he watched the limp form upon him he belatedly became aware of his own uncontrolled breathing as he found his right hand idly rubbing circles on her back. Suddenly he froze as a shift of the woman's trembling frame revealed something to him and he groaned, his head smashing into the edge of the tub.

"….Uzume….umm….unless you want to start something… "

The lethargic young female lazily moved her head from his shoulder to look at his face before slowly leaning back slightly, an action that caused them both to gasp, and looking where he indicated with a small motion of his head. Her confused glance turned shocked and her face turned atomic red as she discovered what Logan was pointing out to her.

Her hips were subtly making minute movements without her even realizing causing Logan to twitch and grimace as he let out quiet little groans as she unknowingly tortured him. Even worse that her movements had made it so that they were millimeters from joining and having sex without her realizing it as she was still in her winging induced high.

Which was of course the exact moment that someone walked in, two someone's to be exact. The door opened and two figures stopped in their tracks in shock. Saki's mouth was wide open, face fire truck red and a minute trail of blood leaked from her nostril as her finger snapped to point at the pair in the bath and their unscrupulous position. Akitsu didn't look like she knew to pass out or attack the woman on top of her master as her eyes appeared bug out of her head and a flush came to her pale cheeks to shame any other Logan had seen.

"Wha?!...Wha?...What the hell?! We were coming to join you in the bath when we saw a light from under the door and...and….we find you….find…you….."

Saki's voice became higher and higher pitched as she backed against the wall and slowly slid down it, before seemingly passing out, the small trail of blood continuing to slowly trail from her nose. Akitsu stepped forward as she was going to do something before she stopped, her gaze locking onto the seated woman's back.

"Ah….you winged her…."

Logan rolled his eyes slightly as he glanced between the madly blushing Uzume and Akitsu.

"…More like she winged herself….It was her choice. She was reacting…quite…strongly. Possibly even worse than with Saki was. Which I take it isn't normal? "

Glancing between the two conscious females he suddenly chuckled in spite of the embarrassment and tension in the air as well as the rapidly dropping temperature in the room.

"Uzume….as much as I'm err…solidly….bad choice of words there…enjoying this. You might want to umm…move…..before Akitsu-chan there decides to freeze us solid or impale you with an icicle."

"Oh….right…hehe…..good idea bro…"

Uzume giggled nervously as she reluctantly got off him, causing him to groan in torture as her dripping body was revealed to him as she stood and made her way to the other side of the bath and seated herself. He couldn't help but notice the blushing grin he got from her when she heard his outburst.

"God save me from evil temptresses…."

He muttered, apparently not quiet enough as Uzume gave him a smirk and Akitsu decided enough was enough and dropped her towel, revealing her nakedness. As the ice maiden stepped into the bath and sat beside him he groaned once again, his head softly smacking against the edge of the tub as he covered his eyes.

"Agh…..really?...You girls are trying to kill me….or get me in trouble or something…"

Hearing a soft moan and hearing movement, trying to not look too long at the two well-endowed females he was sharing a bath with, he looked over and met the eyes of his second Sekirei.

"Oh…you okay Saki?..."

He received a blushing nod in return as she stood, making sure her towel was in place as her gaze jerked between the new addition to his flock and himself.

"Hai….I told you she was a Sekirei…"

She kept glancing between the water, himself and oddly what looked at the chests of the other two women as a slight saddened look came to her face.

"You're not going to hop in Saki?"

He got a shake of the head and a blush.

"….N..No…..that's okay…I came come back later…."

Logan frowned at her words before he noticed her noticeably covering her chest as she started to turn to leave.

"Saki…..are you leaving because you feel as if you're...lacking?...In looks or something?"

The kunochi froze at his words, her back still turned to him as he got a slight nod in answer. He growled in annoyance and almost stood before twin gasps from the females in the water reminded him of his state of undress and he sat down with a splash and a blush. He gave a small glare at Uzume's playful frown and 'Aaah' of disappointment.

"Err….Saki…please join us…..you have nothing to fear. I won't look while you get in and regardless….you have nothing to be ashamed of…"

The girl spun around, a surprised look on her face as she seemed to search his face for signs of truth.

"..But…..they're so much…..err….bigger….than me…."

He returned her blush with one of his own.

"Well…..it is true that you aren't as….gifted….in that same department as these two…..who I must say are WAY above average…..be quiet please Uzume."

He gave the smirking young woman another small glare as he saw her mouth open, preempting her smart ass remarks before returning his attention to the insecure woman.

"That's nothing to be ashamed of in any way….you are a beautiful woman in your own right. So...come in…enjoy the bath. I believe we all have some talking to do…."

He stopped speaking as he saw the way her eyes were shining along with the blush and stupidly cute smile that broke out on her face as she dashed towards the bath, her towel fell off her as her gaze returned to him and her happy looked turned quickly embarrassed as she sunk to a seated position on his other side across from Akitsu. A small glare was given to the laughing woman across from her and her blush increased as Logan chuckled and patted her shoulder.

"Aww….but bro….you never said what made Saki-chan here so 'beautiful' in your mind?"

Logan winced as he leveled a small glare at the grinning young woman. He recognized the situation for what it was, a trap of the direst sort.

"Err….well…."

He gulped slightly as he felt the intense gazes of the trio of females, none stronger than Saki's.

"Well…..let me get out of the way the fact that there is nothing ugly about any of you….you all seem to combine the looks of the hottest model and the body of a fitness model or star athlete…..Saki…..you have the prettiest eyes….set in a lovely face…..and you have really nice long, toned legs…..umm….."

The subject of his statement grew a tremulous smile as she lunged into his side, snuggling against him, which of course made him aware that a naked woman was pressed tightly against his side.

"My….aren't you the charmer bro?..."

Uzume teased with a small jealous hitch to her voice. Out of the corner of his eye he spotted the longing look in Akitsu's eyes. He smiled at her and raised his left arm in invitation.

"Akitsu…..there's a spot here open if you wish it?"

He blinked as even before he had finished his sentence the ice maiden was burrowed into his side. He could barely tell she moved, the water barely disturbed. He lowered his arm around her, his arms gently rubbing his girls arms. He grinned as he felt them seemingly melt into his sides at his touch. He looked up to find a visible pout on Uzume's face.

"Aww…..I want to join…meanie…."

He snorted at her.

"I think there will be plenty of chances in the future Uzume…..now…..onto business…..please introduce yourself…properly….since we seem to be attached to each other now."

"Okay….I'm Uzume….Sekirei number ten….umm….the Veiled Sekirei….I can manipulate cloth into tools and weapons and such…"

Nodding Logan thought over this information.

"Hmm….sounds like a versatile ability….so we have an ice user, a sneaky blade wielder and a super powered sheet folder huh?"

He said with a grin as he got a pout from Saki and a tongue stuck out in his direction from the cloth user.

"Now….what's the deal with your…..intense reaction?...From what I'm getting such a thing isn't the 'norm'….I think your reaction was even worse than Saki's…..and that's saying a lot…."

Uzume frowned as she met gazes with the kunochi.

"I…I don't know…..I believe that mine….and from your description Saki's reaction to you….that you are most likely a 'very' strong Ashikabi to cause such absurdly intense reactions from Sekirei. And I can only guess at what will happen if any other Sekirei react to you and are winged by you."

He frowned at her answer.

"…But what's so different about me?..."

He cut himself off as a mischievous grin came to Uzume's face and she slowly floated her way over to him, causing him to break out in a sweat as she rested her head on his knees, grinning up at him then a not so innocent pout came to her face as she looked up at him.

"Maybe cause you're such a catch huh bro?...Muu….I'm jealous…I wanna snuggle too!"

Before he could respond the door burst open, a cold rush of air causing goosebumps to break out on everyone's skin, which was exclusively induced by the air temperature.

"Ara…..Do I detect lewd and illicit behavior? You all know that such behavior is strictly prohibited in Izumo Inn…."

Everyone's eyes widened in growing trepidation as the oppressive aura began filling the room. They were luckily saved by a scream and crash from the front yard. All present in the room looked between each other in confusion as the land lady left the room to investigate. Logan and his 'flock' began to vacate the tub, which caused Logan's eyes to widen as he sat back in the tub hurriedly, restraining the hand that flew to his itchy nose as he struggled to not stare and drool at the sight before him.

The trio of goddesses before him stepped out of the bath, still dripping water as they began heading towards the front room to dry off. All three seemed to notice that the single male of the group wasn't following them and glanced backwards to discover Logan staring at them with a definitive heat to his face. Uzume seemed to catch on first and smirked, winking at him and striking an all too alluring pose.

"Hehe…like what you see bro?..."

The other two females caught on immediately; Saki making a strangled 'eep' sound as she covered herself woefully inadequately with her hands and blushed madly as she felt her Ashikabi's gaze on her, she seemed conflicted in whether to run and cover herself or stay and bask in his appreciative gaze. Akitsu meanwhile made no move to cover herself, a growing blush darkened her pale cheeks as she seemed to soak in his unconsciously roaming eyes.

"Well…hell yes I do…..I mean….I have three absolutely gorgeous woman naked in front of me…..I'm male…..of course I do…now….please get dressed before you kill me here or Miya comes back for us…..we should probally go see what that racket was huh?"

He said as with a slightly glazed expression as Uzume pouted a bit.

"Aww….your no fun bro…."

He furiously scrubbed his face as he got himself back under control. A minute or so later as he heard the females leave the changing room he exited himself and dried and dressed, making his way down to the living room to find out what had caused the disturbance.

As he entered the living room where he heard a commotion he immediately noticed a young adult Japanese male with dark hair seated on the floor receiving first aid from the silver haired pretty boy. The newcomer was wearing an ill-fitting green track suit with white stripes and exuded a demeanor that screamed 'pushover' to his eyes. Logan scanned him and saw that he was actually quite tall for a average local, possibly just shorter than his six foot, one inch height though he was extremely on the skinny side, probally weighing a buck forty soaking wet max.

Logan noticed Akitsu's gaze lock onto him as soon as he had entered and she moved to his side and slightly behind him, he gave her a smile as she did so, enjoying the light blush and slight widening of her eyes the simple action induced. The young man's eyes widened as he as Logan enter the room, his appearance seeming to intimidate him. Before either could attempt introductions however a load, exuberant female voice sounded off from the other side of the shogi door and it flashed open, revealing something that caused both male's eyes to widen.

Standing before the demure land lady was a female in a pinkish-red Yukata with red flowers upon it. Said girl had long brown hair with an odd rebellious bang and brown eyes. But of course her most….notable…feature…was her bust. The sight was even more pronounced by the too small robe she wore and the purplish obi she had around her waist which caused the upper part of the Yukata to cling closely to her frame.

"Good lord….she's even bigger than Uzume and Akitsu by the looks….Oh crap….stop looking….sigh…I'm becoming a pervert…."

He studied her a little closer before glancing at Saki questionably. He received a nod from the kunochi.

"Hmm…..Saki thinks she's a Sekirei as well…."

As this was occurring the new male in attendance seemed to be gushing over the 'gifted' girl, not that he could blame him. His line of thought was disturbed however as the land lady made a revelation in the former owner of the borrowed track suit. The lavenderette seemed to recover quickly as she turned to him.

"Oh forgive me, I had forgotten to introduce the last tenant here. This is Logan Haversen…..san….. He just became a new tenant here earlier today as well. He's an American soldier and stays in room 204. This young man here is Minato Sahashi-san and this pretty little thing is Musubi-chan."

Logan stepped forward, interrupting the beginnings of a bow from the young man and held out his hand. As the timid male took his hand he shook it, he suppressed a grin as he noticed the boy grimace at the firm handshake.

"Nice to meet you Sahashi-san….just call me Logan….I'm not big on formality when it's not needed. Nice to see another guy under this roof."

The timid male haltingly introduced himself as the ditsy girl of his sniffed the air and began exclaiming over food, which ended with her stomach letting out a loud growl.

Making their way to the dining room they discovered a simple, yet delicious meal awaiting them of fish, rice and other Japanese cuisine. Logan seated himself at the opposite end of the table from the land lady with Akitsu materializing to his right and Saki to his left, leaving a playfully pouting Uzume taking a spot to Saki's left next Kagari. On his right, directly next to Minato was the black hole in humanoid form known as Musubi.

A few minutes into the meal and after some light conversation the 'new guy' bowed and asked to become a tenant at Izumo Inn as well, in which Miya gladly accepted. After the delicious meal, the new pair mentioned needing to move out of their old apartment and that they would be back in the morning with their belongings to officially move in.

As they left Logan stood and began gathering up dishes. He received a frown from the land lady.

"Ara?...Logan-san….whatever are you doing?"

He blinked in return as he glanced at the dishes in his hands before meeting the woman's gaze with a slightly confused look.

"Umm…I was going to help with the dishes…unless that's not allowed?..."

Her eyes widened slightly before she let out that odd little giggle of hers once again.

"Oh my Logan-san….no…helping with chores is not only allowed, it is encouraged. However, as you mentioned you have work tomorrow your help with this chore isn't required. You should be getting ready for bed. However, I will take the help of your lovely young ladies as they as of yet have no jobs."

Nodding in answer he smiled at the trio of ladies as he made his way out of the room and to his assigned bedroom. However he paused as he noticed Uzume dash out of the room before sidling up beside him. He looked at her with a raised brow as he grinned slightly.

"Trying to get out of work huh?"

"Who me? You bet ya I did hehe….she didn't say my name so I'm in the clear!"

Shaking his head at her over the top excitement at skipping out on a chore he opened the door to his room as he removed his shirt before pausing as he felt eyes on him. Turning slightly he saw a grinning Uzume not subtly whatsoever leering at him, paying special attention to his toned chest. She let out a whistle as she made a twirling motion with her hand.

"Wow…bro….you showing all this for lil old me?"

He scoffed lightly at her as he rolled his eyes and grabbed a plain grey tank top from his bag.

"Now whatever gave you that idea?..."

He stopped when he saw her gaze turn mischievous and she stepped up to him, almost close enough for her chest and his to meet, her face peering up at his with entirely too much playfulness in them. An obviously fake and cute pout on her countenance.

"Aww…..but Ashikabi-sama….Uzume-chan wanted to play…."

He slightly gulped as her expression turned into something else, a heat to her gaze.

"Umm….Uzume….hold on a second….while I'm not willing…..I think I need more time before…anything…happens…I'm still new to all this and trying to figure out how I feel about my first two Sekirei…ladies….so please….give me a little time."

He grinned a little bit as he attempted to clear the mood in the room.

"In addition….I think we may need to be more careful with the scary land lady huh?"

"Hehe…you're right….umm…so….I guess this is good night?...I should get back to my room so you can get your rest huh?..."

"Yeah…good idea…."

The girl began to leave the room before suddenly leaping into his arms and meshing her lips to his and the room exploded into bright light as her wings revealed themselves. He groaned as he felt her softness mold to him. As the light faded and they slowly separated, leaving a pair of lightly panting persons resting their foreheads together.

Uzume reluctantly broke away from his embrace as she backed away from him with a teasing smirk which was slightly ruined by the flush in her cheeks.

"What?...Didn't think I'd let you go to sleep without a good night kiss did you? Sleep well my Ashikabi-sama….and dream of me ok?"

She then proceeded to sashay out of the room with entirely too much sway to her hips and a evil little grin on her face as she disappeared as she got a look at his face.

"…..Well I'll be dammed…..evil little sexy thing…."

Glancing down her groaned.

"Great….now it'll take forever for me to get to sleep…evil woman…"

He mused as he couldn't erase the stupid little grin from his face. As he got under the covers the absent duo made their appearance.

"Did Miya-san work you much?"

He asked as he made himself comfortable in his gym shorts and tank top.

"Nope….just helped with the dishes and such….she did mention she would start asking us to help around the Inn tomorrow however."

"Ah….no…."

He smiled at the women as he motioned towards his backpack and the shopping bags.

"Good…maybe that will keep you from getting too bored while I'm at work. Akitsu…your night clothes are in one of the bags…..Saki….you can borrow a tee shirt and gym shorts to sleep in if you want….I don't think Akitsu's clothes will fit you. Tomorrow when I get off work around oh…1530 or so we can get you some clothes of you want and go get your stuff from your old apartment if you wish. Oh…I still need to pick up my stuff from the hotel….as well as my car now that I think about it…"

He yawned as he felt himself start to dose off as he absently heard the rustle of around the room. In his decent to slumber he didn't react as two bodies stealthily joined him under the sheets and snuggled against him as he unconsciously drew them even closer with his arms. Then the sand man took over and he entered the world of dreams, where evil, teasing women awaited him.

-END-

AN- Sorry once again for the delay. Also, trying to think what vehicle to give Logan…ideas? Lol. I went ahead and bumped the fic from 'T' to 'M' for safety as I was somewhat toeing the line in some areas. Still on the fence about Lemons o.O
