## Wings of Love - Story

A little while ago, Ayane was working with the family business back in her mansion. But then she suddenly got kidnapped by a bunch of thugs and has been held hostage ever since.

The Voice:

Before she made an actual appearance, Mitsuo heard Ayane's voice crying for help after he gets a shipment for Kichiroh Shintaro's noodle restaurant. Then when Mitsuo got back, he starts to hear Ayane's voice, but this time it got louder, resulting in him getting a terrible headache. So Mitsuo decided to head to where he heard the mysterious voice (Ayane).

After Mitsuo arrived, Ayane made an actual appearance being seen unconscious, all beat up, wrapped around in rope, and having a bandage around her mouth. Before he freed her, Mitsuo ended up fighting with a bunch of thugs that kidnapped her and eventually won. After the battle, Mitsuo untied Ayane's restraints and carried her back to the noodle shop.

Back at the noodle shop, Kichirou took care of Ayane's wounds while she's lying on Mitsuo's floor bed. Unfortunately, she's still unconscious due to what she's been through. After Kichirou treated Ayane's wounds, he and Mitsuo decided to let her rest until morning. After Kichirou left, Mitsuo watched Ayane sleep and vows that he will protect her.

A Desire to Protect:

Early in the morning, Ayane finally woke up. She is wondering where she is, so she got up slowly during her injuries and looked around. It's a small room, like an attic, and a staircase that's leading downstairs. Ayane decided to get up, but she finally realized that someone is holding her hand. She turn to see that it's Mitsuo who is lying down sideways, facing towards the right, and not wearing a shirt and shoes. She got pretty scared and scooched back towards a wall. After realizing her hand letting go of his, Mitsuo finally woke up. Ayane got scared all of a sudden, but after seeing Mitsuo responded back saying that she's okay, Ayane managed to calm down a bit. She even said to herself that the guy in front of her is so kind and... handsome. Later, Ayane and Mitsuo introduced themselves and Ayane is shocked to know that Mitsuo is a Sekirei. Mitsuo asked if Ayane wants something to eat, in which Ayane agreed, responding back gladfully.

After they went down, Kichirou gave Ayane and Mitsuo their meals. While having their meals, Kichirou told Ayane that he has some bad news. Her father, Shotaro Kasahara has gone on a business trip and is not coming back for a while, much to Ayane's dismay. Luckily Kichirou said that he and Shotaro are good friends and said that Ayane will stay with him and Mitsuo until her father comes back. Ayane politely says thank you before she finished her meal.

After her meal, Ayane wants to go out for a walk in the city. But Kichirou says that it's a bad idea because she just recovered and those thugs could still be searching for her. But before Ayane can argue, Mitsuo came down with his clothes on. He said that he will go with Ayane and keep her safe. Ayane told Mitsuo that he doesn't have to, but Mitsuo said that judging by the way Ayane has been through, he wanted to make sure that she's safe. Ayane sees that there's no changing Mitsuo's mind and lets Mitsuo come with her, while blushing from the side after saying such kind things to her. Then the two took their leave.

Decisions and Consequences:

Ayane and Mitsuo are now walking around the city. Ayane stated to Mitsuo, after he saw her blush, that she never been on a date before. Mitsuo is confused and asked what is a date. After explaining to Mitsuo what a date is, he asks Ayane where they should go. Ayane prefers the mall, so the two head over there. They have been going from place to place. They've even gone to a few historical sites, clothing stores, ate at a restaurant, and even played in a arcade.

It is in the afternoon, and Ayane and Mitsuo are taking a train back to Kichirou's noodle restaurant. Ayane later falls asleep on the way on Mitsuo's shoulder. He thinks it's annoying but comfortable at the same time. While asleep, Mitsuo patted Ayane's head, saying again that he vows to protect her.

After they got off the train, Ayane thanked Mitsuo for coming with her and will always cherish this memory. She then asked Mitsuo if it's alright if they can go on another date next time. Mitsuo gladfully answered yes, whenever Ayane wants.

Then suddenly Mitsuo felt a shock. Ayane is wondering if Mitsuo is okay, but he said that he felt something coming towards them. Mitsuo was right, so he snapped by carrying Ayane and jumped in the air to dodge the attack. The one who attacked turned out to be a Sekirei, and she's a girl. It's revealed that her name is Sekirei No. 99 Tsubaki. However, something's wrong, she seemed to behave strangely and her eyes are red. Ayane was told by Mitsuo to stand back and let him handle the Sekirei.

The battle has started. But Mitsuo is fighting a little easy than usual. But then Ayane figured out that the battle is lasting for a while because Mitsuo is trying to figure out why No. 99 attacked he and Ayane and to end this battle with out killing her. Then, she turned to be shocked when Mitsuo is suddenly holding a nodachi. Then, Mitsuo won the battle thanks to his new abilities and weapon. Ayane approached to see if he's okay, but Mitsuo said he's fine. They started to approach the Sekirei with caution. Ayane is wondering why Tsubaki attacked them, after all they didn't do anything wrong. Mitsuo went in and started to check on Tsubaki. Ayane is beginning to get horrified if she's... dead. But Mitsuo managed to feel her pulse and stated that Tsubaki is still alive, plus her Sekirei symbol didn't disappear. Ayane is wondering what they should, they can't just leave her like this. But even Mitsuo doesn't have the answer.

Before they could figure out an answer some other people came running to aid No. 99. There are just two people, Tsubaki's sister No. 98 Tsukiko and her Ashikabi Akira Tachibana. Akira is checking on his Sekirei while Tsukiko started to get angry at Mitsuo. Mitsuo tried to explain the situation, but Tsukiko was about to engage in battle. Luckily, her Ashikabi stopped her and says that first things first is they have to take care of Tsubaki. Mitsuo started to have visions, then he realized what he needed to do and told Ayane to stay where she is. Mitsuo approached them and then he started to spread out his wings, then the wound he inflicted on Tsubaki started to vanish. Then suddenly, she regained conscious. Akira and Tsukiko are so happy to have Tsubaki back to them. Mitsuo suggest that they should get out of there, seeing how it's going to be difficult to explain their situations like this. Ayane agreed, so the two grabbed the shopping bags and went back home. Akira turned to thank the two, but they are already gone.

It was night time, and the two told everything that's happening to Kichirou. He couldn't believe all that's happened, but gave the two their meals. While eating Ayane is starting to wondering why Tsubaki attacked them, she stated again that they didn't do anything wrong. But Mitsuo said to her that it's not what they did, it's how she was behaving strangely. He mentioned that he sensed some dark power or aura from within, and besides her eyes were red. Ayane stated that this isn't a coincidence at all. Kichirou mentioned that while the two were gone, he watched the news saying an Ashikabi is fallen ill and his Sekirei is getting pretty worried about him. Ayane is shocked about this news and hoped that the Ashikabi is okay and feeling better. Mitsuo was silent but then said to Ayane that they should investigate these sudden occurrences. Ayane agreed, but she said that there's something that they must do first in order to conquer and new threat.

Answers:

Ayane is being seen with Mitsuo on a baseball field. Mitsuo asked Ayane what they are doing here, but she said that Mitsuo needs to be prepared for anything. So before they can get started Ayane asks Mitsuo how he was able to get a Nodachi in the middle of a match. Mitsuo doesn't have a clue but he only stated that he saw another vision of a woman (Karasuba) who was wielding the same weapon as he is, and suddenly he managed to get the weapon and perform those same abilities in battle just like her. Ayane is wondering if he can do it again, but this time with a different Sekirei. So she got her tablet and pulled up a list of Sekireis and Ashikabis. She pulled up a picture of a random Sekirei, and Mitsuo managed to do it again, but his weapon and abilities are different. Seeing how it work, Ayane pulled up the picture of all the Sekireis that are weapon master, hand-to-hand combat fighters, and nature manipulation users. After Mitsuo copied all the Sekireis abilities and power, he and Ayane decided to take a break.

Ayane gave Mitsuo some water so he can cool himself down. Ayane is impressed and asked Mitsuo how can he do all of that. But Mitsuo said that it's complicated, so Ayane understands and decided to let it go. They were silent for now, but Ayane started to go over the events that are happening. An Ashikabi has fall ill, and the Sekirei (Tsubaki) suddenly went all berserk and attacked them. Mitsuo finally spoke that they are not going to get answers by just sitting around. Still they got no leads, so how are they going to figure out this case. But Ayane has an idea, that their first lead is to talk to the Sekirei who attacked them, hopefully she will give them a clue. Mitsuo would prefer that, but how are they going to find her. Luckily, Ayane can find the location on her tablet. She manages to find the address of where she lives and it's not that far from where they are. So they went to the address to begin investigating.

After they arrived, Tsukiko almost attacked the both of them after knowing who they are. But thankfully, Akira was able to stop her. So after they sat down, made introductions, and Akira served Ayane and Mitsuo some green tea, they begin to get straight out to the point. Mitsuo asked how Tsubaki went berserk in the first place. Tsubaki said that she felt a sudden shock that causes her to have a headache while going out to get the groceries, then she gave into negative emotions and went out of control. Ayane and Mitsuo still couldn't get a next lead. But Tsubaki explained more that she started to see images of a floating island that has wings, only they turned all black and dark. Mitsuo is shocked to hear about this, Ayane is willing to ask what Mitsuo is shocked about. But Mitsuo didn't answer yet, so the two said their goodbyes and exited the house.

Ayane asked again what Mitsuo is thinking about right now. Mitsuo still didn't answer but asked Ayane if she knows about the Sekirei Plan. Ayane agrees what it is but Mitsuo asked where do the Sekirei go after they are terminated. That's when Mitsuo explains about the Kouten, the island Tsubaki mentioned earlier. After hearing about Ayane asked Mitsuo on what does any of that has to do with the case. Mitsuo then said that he knows where to head next.

A Past Left Unforgotten:

Ayane managed to rent a speedboat thanks to her family's permission card, and she and Mitsuo used it to head over to Kamikura Island. When they arrived Ayane is shocked to find out that their next lead is here, where it all began. The two then walked on foot across the island, and they found the island covered in scars and impact craters. Ayane is wondering what happened in here. Mitsuo suggested that this must be a result of a great battle. But little did they know that the "great battle" is actually the Final Stage of the Sekirei Plan. While they are continuing walking Mitsuo still knows the place where they are going. After they went up a rocky hill, the two saw a space ship lying down there. So Ayane and Mitsuo decided to check it out.

When they got inside, it was kind of dark. Ayane is kind of scared and asked Mitsuo if this is the right place. Mitsuo is definitely sure, but then after Mitsuo said unknowingly on how long "he" is going to hide in the shadows, they heard a sudden laugh. That laugh is actually from the "Game Master" himself, Minaka Hiroto. Ayane is very surprised to know that the one Mitsuo is looking for is the former Chairman of the MBI himself. After Mitsuo explained how did he find him here, he and Ayane got straight to the point.
