Mama Blues POV
After restraining Norn, who was acting like a desperate slut, we soon had Mina present the next person. What I did not expect was for him to be absolutely my type. He looked like a tall male Inari One, but that wasn't what attracted me to him. What attracted me was the relentless ambition and desire for freedom in his eyes. He was loyal, to a point, yes, but he also wanted more for himself, and I could read that just by looking at him.
He gave his speech calmly and intelligently, not revealing his ambitions, but his loyalties. He was smart, thought well of his coworkers, and seemed to respect the team. Then there was his boyish charm and serious demeanor. Three goddesses, why must you test me like this? I want him. Soon enough, his speech ended, but the chaos had just begun.
Every speech after that had varying levels of chaos, where we had to calm everyone down at some point. This also led to Spice, who earned it, taking a trip to the infirmary. Still, right after, Vic told me, "Hey, Mama Blues, I need to have a word with that Hachi Fukawa lady. You tell everyone that they can do what they want after this. No after-work meeting today."
Vic was ticked off and panicking a bit inside. I could always read her precisely. While everyone was fooled by her calm and cool projection, I could tell when a calm-looking person was panicking. Still, this benefited me, as I saw Takeshi was still cleaning up and helping the lower staff. I could intercept him on his way back to his room later.
After dismissing everyone, they all headed somewhere else with their own plans. I even had Rain watch over Gray, Lily watch over ImP, and Jo watch over KiWi. I couldn't have them making more trouble in addition to the trouble they had already made today. Still, I knew the rest of the team had their own targets in mind today. That's why I said, happy hunting, ladies. I'm off to get my new man.
I soon waited in front of his door as soon as I found it, thanks to some help from a few kind staff members. That's when he arrived after cleaning up, seeming to be tired from all his work. That's when I began my hunt. As I spoke and acted, I watched him begin to blush harder and harder.
I saw him notice what I was doing and react accordingly. He was breathing harder, getting more and more aroused. He was turned on, but I could see he was still resisting his desires. I soon left a card in his front pocket and told him that if he was ready, I'd be waiting for him. When I backed off, he quickly rushed into his bedroom, blushing. That's when I walked off, as I was also quite aroused myself.
When I arrived in my bedroom, my cellphone began buzzing. I soon read the messages. It read, "Yo, guess whose girl just got her agency hired as the Org's primary agency."
It seems a bunch of things have happened in the past few hours. I see the crew still has not forgiven Spice for his choices, but we're supportive of Ayana. Even though they were both at fault for the incident.
Yeah, to me, both of them goofed off. One was the distraction, and the other just fucked around. That wanting to be with him so you didn't do your job is bullshit. She would have known which team she put us in, so she could have visited Spice at any time. It was only the sight of Takeshi distracting me that I couldn't care less about.
Now, as I watched the petty "we're still mad at you" texts after congratulating Ayana, Spice texted a new message.
It said, "Calm, here's some info you're gonna love and forgive me with. I hear from Ayana that the staff are gonna have a meeting tonight, so if you want to have a meetup with your new interest right after this, this would be the time."
Yeah, I never cared in the first place, but this information does change my night. I'm going to make a play that will make Takeshi pick up that phone and ask me out. Heck, maybe he'll even ask me out then and there.
I soon put on an outfit that pulled out my charm, making me look cute and mature at the same time. Then I put on makeup and perfume made to make him remember me. Finally, the shoes and accessories were perfect for the situation. I soon went near Mina's office, which was easy as I was now inhumanly fast. There, I waited for Takeshi to get out of the meeting.
When he finally came out, he had a serious look on his face. When he was finally by himself, I greeted him. He saw me and paused, but this time he didn't falter, and I admit that threw me off a bit. He then asked, "Mama Blues, may I help you?"
I then smiled at how attractive he was being and decided on what I wanted to say.
I told him, "Hello, Takeshi-kun. I'm here to tell you I am coming for you. You see, I can't stand the sight of you not being mine. I can't stand the idea of you being out there, not being claimed by me. I can't stand the existence of you not being in my grasp. Your days of being without me will soon be done, and I will have you. Don't worry, baby, you'll love every moment of it."
He then thought about it and grinned, making a face I've never imagined he could. He soon responded to me, saying, "You think you can capture me? You think you can entrap me and decide what I can become and limit my freedom? Nah, you see, Mama Blues, I ain't like other schmoes. I like my freedom, and I'm aiming for a life where I can be my own man, living a life where I decide for myself what I want to be. Now, if you want me, I'll tell you what you tell every poor bastard who races against you: 'Catch me if you can.'"
I tried to respond, but soon he grabbed my mouth and put his finger on his lips. "Shhh!"
He silenced me with confidence, but this won't affect me. In defiance, I licked his hand, making him pull his hand back. Tasty.
We looked at one another. The hunt was on, and I swear he will be mine.
Takeshi Oda POV
Goddammit, she got me. I stood in the doorway of my room, trying to catch my breath as I remembered what just happened. That was the first time in a long time I felt I was under someone else's grasp. The feeling I hated the most. The feeling I never wanted to experience ever again.
When I was younger, I decided to do whatever I could to become independent and leave this life of servitude. I am loyal to Mina, but my life's goal is to live comfortably away from this predetermined life as a servant. I wanted to live without ever being in someone else's grasp ever again. That's why I chose to serve Mina. She was the least authoritative member of her family, and it's why I worked so hard to learn everything I could while I worked here.
Then that just happened.
She came and took full control of everything I thought, felt, and wanted in seconds. The worst part? I loved it, and I wanted her to do it again, if not more. She made me forget my dream. I wanted to be completely free, not be held down by someone else. This was getting complicated, but that's when I received a text message.
I calmed down and looked, seeing that it was Mina calling a meeting at this time.
I took a shower and soon got dressed. I looked out my door, seeing Mama Blues was gone. I soon got to work and went to the meeting. There, it was chaotic, with everyone going wild. That was until Kaito came in, and his sheer presence silenced everyone.
He made his report like everyone else did. Soon, everyone was put in order as Mina introduced Ayana into the staff as the primary agent of the organization.
Mina then asked Ayana, "Miss Hiraga, you've been with them for a while. What do you know about how they feel about us?"
She soon spoke, saying, "Well, first up, Vic respects all of you except probably Miss Fukawa, who he worries about. Next, Mama Blues respects all of you, and I think she might have fallen for Mr. Oda there."
I then asked in confusion, "What? Why?"
Ayana answered, "How would I know? Most of the team might have strong feelings for some of you, but I don't know the reasoning for any of it."
She finished, and I calmed down, saying, "Oh, sorry. You can continue now."
She did, saying, "Next up is Gray, who sees you either as a resource or a burden, so choose the former, not the latter. Especially you, Mr. Nobunaga. She has expectations for you. After is Rose, who's fine and neutral towards everyone."
Everyone nodded so far as she continued.
Everyone nodded so far as she continued, saying, "GW respects all of your abilities and professionalism, especially Mr. Iguro, whom she likes as well."
Everyone sighed. At least leadership was not a threat to the organization.
She spoke again, saying, "After is the muscle heads. First is Rain, who likes your passion and youth. Then Lily, who is neutral and sees you the same way Gray does. Then there's Steel, who likes the new head coach and cares not for the rest of you much."
That made everyone nervous. She was the team's top player. Her indifference about the team could make keeping her hired to the team more expensive in the future.
She soon continued, saying, "Next is ImP. He wants to befriend Miss Uzumaki, thinking she's cool, and she's also cool with everyone else. Then Spice is next, and he finds Miss Takazuna hot and the rest of you as nobodies, which is better than idiots, I promise."
Everyone got ticked off by that, but he had already gotten beaten up tonight, so adding to it would be pointless.
Ayana soon continued, with us knowing the strange five were next. She spoke, saying, "After Spice is Sweets, and she finds you all to be very weird but nice folks. Then there is BlaD, who was impressed by you all in a comedic way, except for Miss Miyamoyo, who has truly caught her interest. After is Jo, who is neutral currently with everyone."
That made everyone nervous again. Jo was the most brilliant person on the team. The possibility of losing him was a scary prospect.
She soon continued, saying, "After is the fabulous Norn, and she finds you all great. Still, she's very fond of both Miss Yamamoto and Miss Sakamoto/Du Vault."
Mina sighed and then spoke, saying, "Yeah, she was asking where you were, Suzu, and hit on me after. She's gonna be a headache, isn't she?"
This information made Suzu blush like crazy and panic inwardly, it seemed.
Ayana continued, saying, "Finally is KiWi. From what I can gather, she is also neutral towards everyone here."
This made us relax a bit, as KiWi was the most unpredictable and insane player we had.
Each piece of information made us all have different reactions. Vic's worry about Hachi was reflected by the team, as his leadership was very respected. The respect from Mama Blues and GW was calming and warranted a smile from everyone.
The neutral feelings from Gray, Lily, Rose, Spice, Jo, and KiWi worried everyone. Seeing them as possibly leaving the team if they found it unsupportive of their endeavors was concerning. They at least had the support of Rain, Sweets, ImP, BlaD, and Norn.
That made everyone calm down a little bit, but still, knowing some bonding had to be done for both sides to get along fully was a headache.
After the meeting ended, we all left the room, splitting up as some had duties to do or just wanted to go to their dorms to rest for the night.
When I was alone, that's when I saw Mama Blues, and she caught me by surprise. Like, fuck girl, where the fuck did you come from? She was looking cute and beautiful at the same time, yet I didn't show any emotion on the outside, though.
I soon spoke, saying, "Mama Blues, may I help you?"
She was quiet for a bit, which would have made me a bit uncomfortable if not for the fact that I recognized a surprised look when I saw it. It seems I still got it.
She soon responded to me, saying, "Hello, Takeshi-kun. I'm here to tell you I am coming for you."
That surprised me with how blunt she was. Why would she want someone like me?
She soon continued, answering my question.
"You see, I can't stand the sight of you not being mine. I can't stand the idea of you being out there, not being claimed by me. I can't stand the existence of you not being in my grasp. Your days of being without me will soon be done, and I will have you. Don't worry, baby, you'll love every moment of it."
I was stunned. Why was I so excited? Why was I so turned on by this?
She was trying to chase me. She was trying to claim me as hers forever. She was like a wolf that could quickly hunt me down and devour me.
The worst part? I wanted it to happen.
Can she chase me down? Can she hunt me down into submission? The question haunted me, and soon I answered her with what I felt.
I spoke, saying, "You think you can capture me? You think you can entrap me and decide what I can become and limit my freedom? Nah, you see, Mama Blues, I ain't like other schmoes. I like my freedom, and I'm aiming for a life where I can be my own man, living a life where I decide for myself what I want to be. Now, if you want me, I'll tell you what you tell every poor bastard who races against you: 'Catch me if you can.'"
I smiled at her as she grinned back at me.
Oh, what a wonderful moment between us.
