Love Hina Fan Fiction ❯ K2: From Hinata-sou with Love ❯ Chapter 2

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

KU's Lab
 
Just a few floors under the Hinata-sou grounds, unknown to all except 1 tenant of the place, a manager, and of course, the teahouse owner were walking in this gigantic white room filled with electronic gadgets… some took shape and form, others were stripped to their barest. The hyperactive tenant who was also the head of the R&D department was bouncing around the place, slowly showing Keitaro the tools she is developing.
 
“Now, most of these stuff are still prototypes,” Su stated as she began to show him a pen that contained a syringe and it injects an anti-toxin she was producing. “They get a bit buggy at times, but, in the bright side, it guarantees you that you won't be stocked by items that your enemies might now.”
 
“How buggy do some of your items get?” Keitaro asked.
 
“Well, see the injecting pen I showed you?” Su asked, and Keitaro nodded. “Well, the anti-toxin itself is a prototype… it can cure any kinds of toxins present in the body, but 1 out of 6, there's a chance you'll die.”
 
Keitaro looked at Haruka who just smiled. Looking back at the girl, Keitaro forced a smile, and asked, “Um… I'd rather stick to norm stuff then.”
 
Su seemed to frown. “No worries! No worries! I won't give you too risky stuff. For example,” she suddenly produced an Omega blue watch with a rather large face and thick glass covering. “See this?”
 
“Hmmm, looks like a standard issue watch,” Keitaro stated.
 
“Uh-huh, but if you pull this gear… it shows that it's connected to a silver covered wire. Can be used to garrote your foes,” Su showed Keitaro who nodded, impressed. “Good for lycan enemies… they hate silver. But also works with some monsters whose anatomy is close to ours. Now, pus the button right across it…”
 
The gear suddenly formed a small hook, and launched itself to a wall in unbelievable speed, imbedded itself to the wall, stringing the silver wire along.
 
“Like a small grappling hook… I did the hook myself; made sure it can penetrate 10 mm of steel. It's made out of titanium alloy with reinforced gear grip, so it will hold for a good while. The wire can also hold up to a few hundred pounds… Haruka-san told me your weight, so it's safe to say it will hold yours.”
 
“I was going to add more stuff to it… but…” Su laughed. “I need more time to refine the bugs. But I was able to create a much more stable tempered crystal glass… can withstand knife fights without scratching. So, if it's okay for you, you can have it for now.”
 
Keitaro took it without hesitation. “It seems pretty basic and… well, safe enough for use. Anything else?”
 
“Well, I did make an item for your gun… you are using an H&K USP Tactical, right?” Su asked.
 
“Yup…” Keitaro said.
 
“Give me,” Su said, and he nodded, handing her his gun with the safety on. Su went around her desk, and grabbed a black metal box, and attached it to the trigger guard, and gave it a look. “I made this new accessory myself… proud of it to.”
 
“No offense, but I don't want it,” Keitaro muttered. “Accessories kind of throw of the balance of the gun, and adds some extra weight.”
 
“Not this one,” Su smiled as she threw Keitaro's gun back to him. Catching it, Keitaro noticed almost no weight difference… then twirled it around his hand to see if there was any change in balance of his gun. So far… nothing off. Looking at the black box accessory, he was suddenly impressed.
 
“So… what's this accessory for?” he asked.
 
“Lot's of stuff. See those small buttons in one side? If you press,” Su let her sentence linger, motioning Keitaro to push a button. He complied, and when he pressed one button, he heard a click, a red laser pointer was shown in the wall, where the gun was aiming.
 
“First is the basic laser targeting,” Su smiled. Keitaro pressed another button on its side again, and looked up when he heard another click. “Second is your LED flashlight. Strong, and quite useful in pitch dark areas.” Again, another click, and Su smiled, “And this one is UV light. Useful against vampires, and the like. Tends to blind them. The weaker ones melt at it. The bigger button turns it off.”
 
Pushing that button, Keitaro twirled his gun again, and noted that he may need a holster. Su seemed think that too, because she smiled, and said, “Well… I know it's kinda large. Give me a few months I can whip that accessory in your gun itself. Come on, there are still other rooms to show!”
 
Dragging Keitaro to another part of the lab, Su opened the lights to reveal an enormous collection of weapons he's ever seen. Most of them were silenced, but there are ones impossible to muffle the sounds, like sniper rifles, machine guns and the like. Su even seemed to have grenade launchers. 1 of the walls was dedicated to bullets of different calibers. Keitaro moved at once to the .45s.
 
“We got standard iron rune shots, generally effective against angels and demons,” Su pointed, then pointed the one with a syringe and red liquid inside. “Dead Man Blood bullets… anti-vampire weapons as the dead man's blood are poison to them.” Then she showed him shiny bullets. “Bullets with liquid silver… lycan killers. Oh, and this is my best creation yet…” she showed her a very normal bullet with a sunken point and in that point, something was glowing. “I was studying about magic guns, and I was able to produce this baby… a bullet that is used to disrupt mana. So, a big spell coming to hit ya, no problem. You can dissipate it with this. Angel and Demon killers as well. Even some gods and overlords may fear it…”
 
“Only one?” Keitaro asked, watching the bullet with a sort of morbid fascination.
 
“Yeah… bullets like these are very hard to produce… and dangerous too,” Su smiled. “It's made of rare material core, something that can't be found so easily. I just made it for testing, not for combat use,” she nodded, and began to put it back in place. “I want to see its effects, and see for practical uses, and see if I can mass produce… though I doubt it.”
 
“Wow… is Hinata-sou like… R&D's HQ? Stuff like these can be used for wars,” Keitaro stated.
 
“Yes… well… Hinata-sou… is different,” Haruka muttered softly. “You'll learn more about it when the time comes.”
 
“… oh… supernatural stuff?” Keitaro asked.
 
“Yups, hence why I like it here… also the people here are good,” Su said with a nod. “Come! Let me show you my mainframe!”
 
Dragging Keitaro to another part of the lab, she began to show him a large amount of supercomputers that were in the walls, and a large console and screen in the center. Keitaro's eyes went wide.
 
“What's all these computers for?” Keitaro asked.
 
“Well, it has the back-up files of the Inter-U Link, but its mostly used for inventions… calculations, numbers, problems… stuff to get of the bugs basically… but the real brunt of calculation comes from this,” Su pressed began to type in one of the keyboards present with one hand. The screen flashed suddenly, and Keitaro found a picture of Japan, with the sea surrounding it.
 
“Whoa… you have a spy satellite?” Keitaro asked.
 
Su nodded with enthusiasm. “It's Molmol's, actually, but since they have two already, I just borrowed this…” then, to Keitaro's more surprise, she began to type around the 6 keyboards present, each keyboard with a different hand, and she typed so fast, he couldn't notice her finger and hand movements. The picture suddenly zoomed into Hinata-sou… Keitaro noticed a person, seemingly a girl go up the stairs. He wondered who that was for a moment.
 
“Can the satellite penetrate through solid objects?” Keitaro smirked at the ludicrous idea.
 
“Well, as long as it isn't lead,” Su replied nonchalantly.
 
Keitaro blinked, and looked at Haruka, who was smiling widely at him. “You got to be kidding,” he said.
 
“Nope! KU never kids!” Su then began to type again, this time, disabling the satellite. “But we're not going to try and use my advanced infra-light to let you peek at innocent tenants!”
 
“Don't believe what Naru-san tells you,” Keitaro said with a joking tone. “I'm not a pervert… well, most of the time.”
 
Su laughed a bit like a maniac. “It will be fun to see what happens when Momo-chan gets home!”
 
“Mo…mo?”
 
“She means Motoko…” Haruka answered. “You know… the Aoyama that lives here.”
 
“Agent?” Keitaro asked.
 
“No,” Haruka answered. “Though she will learn about us as soon as Tsuruko Aoyama decides to make her heir… most of the tenants here know nothing about the Urashima's… or the secrets of the place they live in.”
 
“I don't know either… the secrets, I mean,” Keitaro muttered.
 
“Soon,” Haruka said. “Besides… one more part to show you… right KU?”
 
“Yups! Come here!” Su once again dragged Keitaro to another part of the lab, and opened the lights, to reveal a collection of engines, car bodies, and motorcycles.
 
The only complete vehicle was the Ducati bike… glossy red and black, it looked quite wonderful in Keitaro's view.
 
“When can I ride that?” Keitaro asked with a smirk.
 
“Well, she's ready,” Su declared, patting the bike. “All you need is a time, need and function.”
 
“So… I'll use it when I need it?” Keitaro asked.
 
“Of course!” Su declared. “This isn't some normal bike ya know… see this? I put a mini jet engine as a booster… it has its own fuel supply,” Su smiled as she showed what button to press to turn the engine on. “The bike itself is sturdy to take the force of the boost if ever it's going to be used and also take the g-force that will accompany it… It also comes with a tracker so I can see how everything goes… and this…”
 
Pressing a button on its side, two tubes popped out beside the headlight.
 
“Machine gun… trigger at the handles,” Su pulled the handle, and small clicking sounds were heard. “Of course… no bullets yet. And here's the best part of all!”
 
Pressing another button, there was a sudden voice in the bike.
 
30 seconds to self destruction… 29… 28… 27…
 
Keitaro's mouth seemed to open a bit. “Um… how do we turn her off?”
 
Su pressed the button again, and the countdown stopped. She smiled at him. “Perfect, isn't she?”
 
“Heh… and I thought it took more moves to stop the girl from exploding,” Keitaro gave a weak smile.
 
“Ya, ya… so whatcha think?” Su asked. Nodding a lot, she seemed to be asking for some sort of approval. “Pretty cool lab, eh?”
 
“I think I'm gonna love it,” Keitaro smiled a small smile. “Though… you do have a holster?”
 
“I got a better idea!” Su said. “Give me your suits, I can ask for some tailors to give you a good place to hide your gun.”
 
“Sounds good,” Keitaro said. “Shall we?”
 
Nodding, Haruka, Keitaro and Su left the laboratory via elevator.

Manager's Room
 
A few minutes later…
 
Keitaro grabbed some suits and almost all his other clothe jackets which he felt comfortable in adding a new accessory to and slid the door open to see a strange girl. She wore casual jeans and wore a pink hugging shirt which had a Hello Kitty picture on it. She seemed to be dragging Shinobu about who, at passing him, bowed. Shrugging, Keitaro slowly made his way to Su's room again.
 
There, placed his clothes on her waiting basket and she smiled, saying she'd work on it at once. Wondered how she would be able to finish doing it single handedly, Su smiled and said that it wasn't her that was going to do it alone, but Shinobu is going to help as well.
 
“I gotta find her first, though,” Su said.
 
“I saw some girl her age dragging her somewhere,” Keitaro said.
 
“Oh? Nina-chan came again?” Su frowned. “Meh… oh well… I can always get some of my robots to do them.”
 
“… As long as they aren't buggy and destroy my suits,” Keitaro said, holding some of the jackets that he and Mutsumi both bought in Kyoto. He didn't have any false thoughts that he'd be able to not save any of his clothes especially during missions… but he'd rather have them ripped or stretched when he was wearing them.
 
“No worries,” Su exclaimed, smiling. “My robots are 100% bug free!” And with that, she grabbed the clothes, put them in the basket and rode her elevator down. Keitaro smiled rather nervously, not really to know whether to trust her or not.
 
So… what will he do now?

Hot Springs
 
An hour later…
 
Naru strode in the dressing room without a care in the world. She'd just studied a good hour before she decided to take a break and hit the springs. Removing her glasses, her clothes, she grabbed a towel and made her way to the springs. Sighing, and relaxing, she removed her towel when her foot touched the warm waters. Seeing Kitsune relaxing not quite far, she slowly approached her, and said, “Hey, Kitsune, you came to?”
 
Without waiting for an answer, she stretched a bit. “Well… it was rather weird today, wasn't it? I mean… imagine, we got some guy dressed up in some fancy suit… like one of those classy perverts that go into bars to hit on waitresses, and such… and he frigging insulted me!” She raised her fist, and began to do a little shadow boxing. “When I get a chance, I'll pummel him a one-two, and maybe we can scare him away. Whatcha think?”
 
She heard Kitsune seemingly agree… but it was more of a mumble than anything.
 
“Hey Kitsune… whatcha think of my breasts?” Naru asked, now finally gotten that guy out of her system. “I think they've grown well…”
 
She heard Kitsune laugh softly, and her face flushed. “Hey! Just cause you got bigger ones than me doesn't mean I'll not take offense to that!” Naru said, suddenly trying to grab Kitsune. She was able to grab her stomach, and like a wrestler, put her on some sort of hold. “Heh! Whatcha gonna do now Kitsune! Try and escape my Naru-lock!”
 
“Move your hand any lower, and I'm going to think that you actually do love me,” Kitsune said with a masculine voice.
 
Like a sort of whip, Naru's hand wrenched themselves back at her, her jaw seemingly frozen and open, her eyes round and white, her face from flushed to pale death white.
 
Kitsune turned around to face her, and with a smirk, said, “Now, now, Naru-san… accusing me of being a pervert is not really offensive… but I take it as one since you are clearly the perverted one.”
 
“… K… K… Kit…”
 
“No, no, no… Kei-Taro.” Smiling the figure in front of her crossed his hands. His features were now slowly becoming clear to her. Her jaw was still open. “I suggest, next time, Naru-san… if you do want to have some private time, all you do is knock at my door as I'm quite accommodating. Sure, it might be a bit more… exciting if you want to do it in the open, but think of the kids we live with. You don't want them to come in as you… well, come unto me, do you?”
 
She was frozen as a statue now. And white as one.
 
“Hmmm… I better get out,” Keitaro muttered, grabbing his jacket. “Now… I know it might be mortifying… but you don't have to pretend to hate me, so you can jump in to me when no one's around.” He seemed to wink, and smirk at her. “A little small admittance of love goes along way. And you won't even have to hide it. Girl's these days… can't admit their feelings, but don't feel ashamed showing their naked bodies…” then he softly laughed.
 
With that, he moved out of the spring, leaving the girl still frozen in the hot springs. It wasn't until he was completely gone and dressed up did he hear Naru's fiery cry of war. He chuckled… Keitaro put what just happened on his mind, and began to list a few things he can do around the dormitory to make his stay as comfortable and not as random as earlier.
 
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
 
Shinobu almost dropped the plates earlier when she heard some sort of horrible shriek echo in the whole dorm. Good thing Nina-chan left earlier or else it might have scared the poor girl away. Keitaro walked into the kitchen, smiling and greeting her after the shout, and she felt her cheeks go aflame once again.
 
“Um… hello, Urashima-san…” she greeted.
 
“Keitaro,” he replied. “Call me Keitaro… Urashima-san makes me sound… don't know… like my grandmother?”
 
“Um… Keitaro-sempai?” she asked.
 
“Sounds better,” Keitaro nodded. “Do you need help with the plates? I can help…”
 
“Um no!” Shinobu exclaimed at once, and with blinking speed, she began to set the table 2 times faster than she normally would. She wanted to get out of the kitchen… hide her face. This was so embarrassing.
 
Keitaro watched her react with a chuckle, and just left her to her own devices. Going out of the kitchen he felt the ground he stood in shake as stomps slowly came to his way. Blinking a bit, he saw Naru coming at him, now dressed, glaring.
 
“I'm going to KILL YOU, PERVERT!” she shouted, raising her fist.
 
“Now, now, Naru-san, we've been through this,” Keitaro admonished. “We don't have to go through this pretense…”
 
“I am NOT in LOVE with YOU!” she shouted.
 
“You could have fooled me, Naru-san,” Keitaro smiled at her pleasantly. “After all… you did jump rather intimately into me earlier.”
 
Naru's mouth formed the series of frowns and grimace and her words seem to choke on something that made her sound a wee bit funny. “But… no, I thought… I thought you were Kitsune!”
 
“Oh… I see it now,” Keitaro nodded rather sagely. “It's not me you wanted… its Kitsune-san.”
 
Her jaw dropped to the floor. “NO! NO! You SICK ASS! She's my best friend!”
 
“Love usually starts with a form of friendship,” Keitaro nodded. “Now, now, Naru-san… there's nothing to be ashamed of. It may not be what nature intended… but if you feel that way, you can't hide it. See… even Shinobu thinks that nothing is wrong with it… right?”
 
To Naru's shock, Keitaro motioned his hand and pointed at Shinobu who was looking at her, face redder than ever. “… ouh… Naru-sempai… you and Kitsune-san…?”
 
“… No! You got it wrong! Absolutely wrong!” her finger was shaking pointing at Keitaro. “He's just putting weird ideas in your head! Don't listen to him! Don't…”
 
“Naru-san… you'll hurt Kitsune-san's feelings,” Keitaro smirked.
 
The girl couldn't take it anymore. She muttered a few more words before she raised her fist, and was about to send this no good good-looking perverted ass into the next continent when Keitaro suddenly hugged her. It was so unexpected so random that her brain seemed to have gotten enough and shut down for good.
 
Keitaro, patting Naru's back, said, “Its okay… nothing to be ashamed off… but you have to admit… hello?” Keitaro looked at Naru's eyes. “Hmmm… lights on but nobody home. Oh well… I'll bring her to the dinner table. Shinobu, dear, can you serve dinner? I have a feeling that our dear Naru-san may need it.”
 
“But I have to call…”
 
“Don't trouble yourself,” Keitaro smiled at her. “I'll call the others. After I bring our over passionate Naru-san here to her table…”
 
Shinobu opened the door, and helped Keitaro bring Naru to her place. When that was done, Keitaro would make a beeline to Su's door, to inform her of dinner, and then go to Kitsune's room. Maybe she'd have learned her lesson this time.
 
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
 
A few minutes later…
 
Kitsune noticed her door suddenly sliding open, and in came Keitaro. With a sarcastic tone, she spread her legs a bit and then said, “Take me, stud… take me now.”
 
Keitaro chuckled a bit, and went to her. The keys were now a bit far from where he had left them. It was obvious what happened… she tried grab the keys to un-cuff herself, but she couldn't. Grabbing it, he un-cuffed her hands, and taking his handcuffs back, he helped her stand up.
 
Without a warning, slapped Keitaro hard that he felt his cheeks suddenly sting. Grimacing a bit, he said in a rather calm voice, “I guess I deserve that…”
 
Glaring at him, she muttered angrily… “You deserve worse…” and without warning, she began to kiss him deeply and hotly, and began to remove her shirt. Pinning him to the wall, Kitsune also started to remove her shorts and Keitaro was kissing her back. Their tongues clashed together, seemingly fighting and tasting each other.
 
Breaking away, Keitaro smirked a bit. “Hey now… if you're famished, dinner is being served.”
 
Kitsune almost tried to rip his shirt off. “Shut up and kiss me,” she muttered straight with a growl. Grabbing his pants, she began to look for the handcuffs that was used on her earlier, and smiled as she grabbed it. “I'm going to show you how to really use this.”
 
“Can I burrow your line?” Keitaro smirked a bit, and then they began to kiss again. This time, he was going for her neck, and she was biting his ear lobe in a gentle and also not so gentle manner. “Something about being kinky?”
 
“Keitaro… you have no idea what kinky means,” Kitsune seemed to smile in a predatory manner. Pushing him on the ground, she grabbed his hands, she cuffed them where she was cuffed earlier, and then, in a delectable manner, began to undo his pants with her teeth. Pulling them out completely with her hands, she straddled on him and began to have her way with him… not that he minded too much.
 
There was a rather small knock on the sliding door, and Shinobu's voice called out. “Um… Kitsune-san… is sempai there? Dinner's ready…”
 
Kitsune smiled. Looking at Keitaro, she replied, “He's rather tied up now, and I'm enjoying myself with a new bottle. Be a dear and bring dinner up later for both of us? In an hour or two?”
 
“Sure Kitsune-san,” and footsteps were heard, indicating that Shinobu was now going back to the kitchens.
 
Keitaro smirked at her. “You have impressive language skills, Kitsune.”
 
She smirked. “I'm a good linguist too… now basic lesson of being kinky… K is for Kitsune… so let's concentrate on that first…”
 
“Yes ma'am,” Keitaro and Kitsune began to kiss again.
 
To Be Continued…
 
Mutsumi calls to bring some odd news… and a prowling supernatural being has Keitaro on his toes… Motoko's home coming fast approaches… while Keitaro visits two of his informants to learn more about Hinata-sou's secrets.
 
Sorry about not brining Mutsumi now… I kinda got hung up by Kitsune. :P
