Disclaimer: I own nothing.

" Talking"

' Thinking.'

" Attack"

A young black haired teen was walking with the biggest smile on his face. He had been stressing over his life for the last few days as he waited to hear his results. Now as he left the prestigious school known as Todai he carried the results of his hard work. He looked down to the documents in his hands. He was now a Tokyo University student.

' Ha ha ha and on my first try too.' The young man thought as he jumped up and down in the middle of the street to his new destination. Many moved out of his way, not wanting to catch what ever disease might have infected him.

A young and very attractive woman was aimlessly walking with her head to the ground. Great sorrow filled her heart and more than likely would continue until the end of her life. The cold air manifesting itself around her was proof of how her frigid fears were taking hold. ' I am destined to be alone, no one will ever want something that is broken.' The woman thought as she slowly raised her head when sensing a strange presence. Before she could look up she was knocked down.

" Oh I'm so sorry." The young man said as he looked at who he had hit, the happy fool had been spinning like some mad ballerina on crack. His back had come in contact with someone before he cursed himself for acting like a fool. His mind already filling with what ever insults his family would have ready for him. He quickly bent down and grabbed hold of the woman's hands hoping to help her up. His eyes grew as she quickly snatched her hands from him.

' She's so cold... and apparently hungry.' The young man thought as the woman's stomach let out a growl from the ground. A quick blush filled her pale face as he looked at her.

" How about I buy you something to eat? So that I can properly apologize for my stupidity." The man said making the woman shocked. Her blushed darkened at the honest smile he gave her.

' What is this feeling? I'm broken and the game hasn't started yet, nor am I participant.' The mistress of frost thought with sadness as she was helped to her feet.

" It's okay I do not need your hospitality." She said while turning her head from him.

" I have to kill some time anyways and both of us are hungry. I promise never to hurt you again." The man said making her look at him. Their eyes locked for a moment as the world around them disappeared.

' She's so cute, weird taste in tattoos but still cute. What asshole went and messed with her mind so much?' Minato thought as the woman would remind him of some of the abuse teenage girls he grew up with.

' He's so kind and his hands are so warm, I've never felt warmth like this. Is this how it feels to be complete? To have my Ashikabi? Had I been a real Sekirei would I have belonged to this wonderful man?' The blushing woman thought as they continued to drown themselves in the windows of their souls.

" Let's go." The man said with a blush as both of their stomachs made their wishes known. She quietly nodded her head as he lead her to a nearby restaurant. The young man took a look back since the quiet and cool woman had yet to let go of his hand.

' She seems so happy, I would be a fool to take that away.' He thought before opening the door for her to enter. She went in and waited for him since she couldn't move too far otherwise she would risk having to let go of him.

' He hasn't discarded me, he looks so wonderful with that smile on his face.' The silver haired woman thought as she tightened her hold on him. They were lead to a small booth by a waitress that had commented on how cute they looked together.

" You can have anything you want. And don't worry about the price because I'm going to be spoiling myself too." The man said with his smile, his voice filling her with the wonderful warmth, that his hand previously did with direct contact. It brought pleasure to her since she had to, and agaisnt her will, let go of his hand since he was going to sit across of her.

" Hai." She said as she took the menu. The raven haired man let out a sigh as he looked at her.

" What's wrong?" He said after they ordered and the waitress left. She looked up to meet his eyes before moving her face from his powerful sight.

" Your eyes, they look so empty, so hurt, it doesn't fit you." His words had placed her in complete shock.

" I... I'm broken. I can never find happiness?" The woman said as her pain grew, Minato felt terrible as tears looked ready to manifest in her captivating eyes.

' Broken? Like..she can't have children, did some jerk leave her because of something so stupid?' The man thought with great rage to who ever had hurt the lovely woman before him.

" Don't worry, one day you will find the right guy and on that day you will be complete." His words filled the broken Sekirei, though he wasn't meaning what she thought.

" You really think so?" She asked with all her hope and heart.

" Of course, you're too beautiful to ever truly be alone... A little quiet but I know the right person will make you shine." They young man said with a smile that made him shine in her eyes.

' This feeling it continues to grow the more I am with him.' She thought as they ate in silence.

" Once your training is complete, all of you will be released to find your destined Ashikabi. On that day your heart will fill with joy and warmth. Your Ashikabi's soul will make all of you complete. On that day you will learn what it means to experience true joy, true acceptance. " A Scientist words filled her head as she remembered her lessons while growing up. Her ruby like eyes fell upon the happy man as he looked at the documents he carried. A contained chuckle would escape his lips as he reread the same page. The sound of his laugh made her smile as she remembered more of her past.

" He will become your world, his love will fill the emptiness in your soul. His being will give you strength. Your Ashikabi is the most important thing to you and nothing will take that away." A female scientist said as a younger her was training her powers.

" My Ashikabi." She said with love and a smile making the man look at her.

" What was that?" He asked making her shake her head.

" It was nothing." She said with her now ever present smile. She happily ate the food that her self appointed Ashikabi provided.

' I might be broken but my Ashikabi will complete me, even if I can't be winged. This man is the one...' She thought as she saw him eat.

" If you wanted to you could have had more." He said as they came out of the restaurant. He was shocked when she suddenly grabbed his arm, he turned to look at her and was blushing when he noticed how close they were.

" All I want is...my Ashikabi" The lovely woman said with a whisper for only him to hear, before her lips connected with his. His eyes grew in disbelief before his body took over his frozen mind. He brought her closer to him and before they knew it she was wrapped up in his arms, returning his sudden embrace.

' This feeling, its so wonderful.' She thought as a powerful light began to flow from her body.

Meanwhile in MBI headquarters. Sirens had started to go off and a large group of people were working to gather the data. A chaotic feeling was flowing through the building since certain events were not yet to start.

" Akizu has been winged? How is that possible?" The head of the company thought with complete seriousness, destroying the image of a fool he spent so long to create.

" We're locating her and her A A Ashikabi right now." A woman said as a monitor turned on. Her voice filled with disbelief and uncertainty.

" No it can't be." A mother said in disbelief as she saw her son kissing the broken number.

The head of MBI laughed as he recognized the young man. He now sported a large grin on his face.

' Figures that he of all people would be able to repair her soul. Truly the Ashikabi are wonderful things. However Minato-kun, can you help my little Akizu control her powers?She was too powerful on her own and now that you have winged her... ah who cares? A game is no fun with out one master level player in it. Minato-kun you will bring me great entertainment.' The man thought as the team prepared for the procedures that were to come.

" The winging of Akizu changes nothing, the game is going to start in a week." Minaka said with a commanding tone as his workers went back to their previous task.

' My son, how did you come in contact with a Sekirei so early and how is it that you fixed her when she had been sealed for her own good?' Minato's mom thought with worry as she looked at the image of her son with the ice using Sekirei.

" That was amazing." Minato said as they broke the kiss. Their passion had overfilled them and before they knew it, their tongues were in a heated battle. Akizu looked upon the eyes of her Ashikabi with all the love in the world as they gathered the control of their breathing.

" Hey the mark on your forehead is gone." Akizu's eyes grew in disbelief before she turned to look at the reflective glass of the door they had just stepped out of. Her mouth hanged open as the large Sekirei mark was gone from the spot that would had forever cursed her.

" Oh... here it is?" Minato said as he pointed to the back of her neck. She raised her hand and touched the base of her neck connecting to her back.

" Yeah right there. To be honest I like it better there anyways." Minato said with his smile before he was tackled by Akizu.

" Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. My Ashikabi." Akizu said with tears of joy as she held on to him with all of her strength. Holding on to him so that she would never be alone or discarded again.

' Ashikabi? What the hell is that? Oh well she looks so happy.' Minato said with a smile as he held on to the delicate ice flower in his hands.

Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoyed it. I wrote this story after noticing there was very few Sekirei story, have yet to read any of them but I hope I am being original. More than likely I got Akizu's hair and eye color wrong if so please place the correct information in a review. Thank You.
