Facing the Storm

by Wilson, Yumoyori

  I didn't know what I'd enjoy more, but the thought of standing was sending shivers through me and it wasn't the exciting kind.

  "Laying down it is," Quil whispered and gave me a warm hug. "We'll be gentle. Just relax." He rubbed my back slowly, and I nodded into his shoulder while I inhaled his gentle aroma of lingering cologne.

  I heard the drawer of the nightstand open up and we pulled back to see Haru take out a packet of lube. Quil moved to the bed first, lying on his back before he used his finger to gesture for me to come to where he was. With a smirk, I climbed onto the bed until I was hovering over him, my hair draping around him as I lowered my lips to his.

  We kept up our kiss while I positioned my opening above his cock. He broke apart for a moment, and I took that opportunity to slowly lower myself onto him. He moaned, and I sighed at the fulfillment he gave my aching pussy; I leaned back down to kiss him once again.

  I heard the tearing sound of the lube packaging, and Quillian slowly trailed his hands down the sides of my waist and stopped at my hips. I could tell he was being cautious, not wanting to trigger anything, and that made me feel even safer and relaxed with what was to come. They didn't want to hurt me. They wanted to give me a moment of dual pleasure.

  I felt Haru's hand on my back, and I broke the kiss to lean back and turn my head to meet his lips over my shoulder. He kissed me nice and slow and Quil took up pleasing each breast once more as I tried to stay still and not over excite myself.

  "Crim...I'm going to slide inside you now. Remember, if you want me to stop, just say so and I'll pull out," Haru whispered into my ear and left a sweet kiss on my neck.

  "Okay," I replied, trying to catch my breath.

  Quil paused and leaned up slightly and I turned my attention to him. He reached out to stroke my cheek and gave me a quick peck on the lips. "Just relax. It'll feel really good in a moment."

  I did as he asked, allowing my body to relax as I tried to focus on Quil's eyes that were a lovely mixture of purple and pink which told me he was aroused. Not like I didn't feel how turned on he was with his cock inside me.

  I felt the head of Haru’s manhood at my anus, and I bit my lip but kept my eyes on Quil's. Slowly, Haru inched himself inside me, and I expected to feel some sort of pain, but it was a comforting fullness and warmth before I moaned, closing my eyes as my pussy tightened around Quil's cock which prompted a moan out of him.

  We both took deep breaths, trying to calm ourselves and Haru filled the rest of me. "You okay, Crim?" Haru asked.

  "Yes," I gasped out, feeling both their cocks. I was amazed Haru's length had fit the whole way.

  "We're going to start moving, Crim," Quil warned.

  "Okay," I replied, my body still relaxed and ready.

  Haru moved first, slowly inching in and out of me, while his hands gripped the side of my waist. Then Quil began to move, and it felt fucking amazing. The way their cocks pumped in and out of me, starting off in opposite movements; Haru slid in while Quil pulled out.

  Quil kept my lips occupied while Haru leaned down and sucked at my neck. They began to move faster and in unison, and I had to remember to breathe.

  "Yes. More. Faster!" I begged and was rewarded as they both increased their pace, making me gasp and whimper. This was so much more; the pleasure pulsing through me grew and grew with their combined thrusts that got deeper.

  The room felt hot and it wasn't long before we were all sweating. Our moans grew so loud that I bet even James could hear us even through the closed door.

  "So close," Quil grunted.

  Haru panted. "Crim, love. We're going to cum soon."

  I merely nodded, my erratic breath and moans were the only indication of how close I was. I couldn't think or speak, I was just on a cloud of pleasure. In moments I'd reach my release and I wanted to enjoy every second of it.

  "Quil. Haru. Fuck. So. Deep. Please." I forced out through breathless gasps, feeling myself reach the edge of my climax.

  They both pulled out almost completely and, with ease, slid back in so deeply, that was all it took to make me climax; a scream exited my throat as I arched my back and came. My eyes closed in pure euphoria and Haru and Quil cursed together as they thrust inside me two more times before they both found their release.

  Feeling their hot cum fill me triggered yet another orgasm that vibrated through me, and Haru quickly wrapped his arm around my waist to stop me from collapsing on Quil, the both of us trying to catch our breath.

  "Shit," Quil breathed, and I couldn't even reply as I tried to come down from my high. Haru slid out of me first before he picked me up so Quil could slide his cock out of me as well.

  I finally opened my eyes and saw Haru's wide grin as he leaned down to kiss me. "I think we should take a bath." He chuckled. "We came a lot more than I thought."

  "I second that. As long as we get to do it again," Quil added.

  I chuckled and Haru rolled his eyes. "Sex addict."

  "You enjoyed it too!" Quil countered.

  "I never said I didn't." Haru winked and, with me in his arms, headed to the bathroom. "Catch up."

  "Really?! Ugh...now I know how Malachi feels," Quil whined, which made both of us laugh.

  I looked up at Haru and he noticed my gaze, stopping for a second to meet my eyes.

  "You alright?"

  "Yes. That...was amazing," I whispered and leaned up to kiss him. "Thank you...for being patient with me."

  "I'll always be patient when it comes to you, Crimson. Always," he whispered back and gave me a loving kiss that made me smile with delight.

  I was healing, and it felt nice to see the progress.

  "Aki- mhm. You're being a distrac- mhmm. Ugh." I groaned and pouted my lips so Aki couldn't kiss me for the millionth time, and he chuckled, placing a kiss on my neck instead which made me giggle as I uncrossed my arms.

  "Alright, I'll stop," he whispered but pulled me into a hug.

  "I missed you."

  "I missed you more," I replied, hugging him tightly as the warm breeze passed by us.

  The past two weeks had been spent alternating between resting and training. Aki and Yoshi had been the busiest out of all of us.

  In the last two weeks, the people of Homatomashi had initiated the March For Peace, going around the different cities in Homatomashi to spread the word and encourage the victims of N.R.O. to come forward and share their stories so justice could be delivered.

  Of course, with such actions the crime rates increased even more and that's why Aki and Yoshi were there to assist with making the marches as peaceful as they could.

  Apparently, Aki was more than enough but on occasion, depending on the size and areas, the others would join in. They always left two people behind, one of them usually being James who'd been cooperative this entire time.

  We'd talked a few times when one of the guys gave him a few hours to relax after a long guard shift, and though I didn't fully trust him yet, I didn't resent him. He was helping us figure out the best time to try and take down N.R.O. and after a bit of explanation from the guys on James' role in all of this, I was willing to forgive him. Though I kicked his balls during training as payback.

  Today was my time to spend with Aki during the day and tonight with Yoshi. Aki said he wanted to go to a place where we could actually shift into our kitsune forms, which was something I'd yet to achieve. Aki said he'd help me, but he didn't think I'd need to fully shift on our mission to N.R.O. Not with how narrow the path could be, both inside and outside of their apparent mountain base.

  On our way there, we'd talked about what the base would potentially look like. Aki explained that Haru was working with James to try to override the seal on him. Both of them would shift into their fox forms and use some special cunning communication to try to get as much information out of James as they could.

  It was slowly working, and they were making a plan to make this mission as smooth and causality free as possible, but they hadn't solidified the plan just yet. />
  "I want more time with you," I mumbled into Aki’s kimono.

  He pulled back to give me a sad smirk before he kissed me comfortingly. "I know, Crim love. I don't think we'll get much more than this afternoon."

  I frowned at his words and he pulled me into another hug. "Why?"

  "One week," he whispered and scooped me up with ease. He walked me over to the nearest cherry blossom tree and lowered us to the ground. I sat on his lap and he secured his right arm around my waist, keeping me close to his warm body. I noticed his three tails were glowing just slightly and I looked up at him to see his serious gaze as he stared forward.

  "One week? As in..."

  Aki nodded, confirming my suspicions. "One more week left until we raid N.R.O. James and Haru went today in their fox forms and James was able to help make a map of the entire place inside and out without overriding the seal on him."

  "Seriously? The seal doesn't work on shifter forms?" I asked, feeling completely shocked about such a discovery and how it hadn't been figured out yet.

  "I think it depends on the shifter type and size. Foxes are an average size, but you notice Haru and James are a tad smaller. With a bit of magic, thanks to ChiyoChi, James was able to say certain things in a short period of time. It's technically not against the seal if they're talking fox," Aki explained.

  "Wow. That's amazing then. But I guess that doesn't allow James to say who White-Eyes is?"

  "No. I don't think it's someone we know personally. That's essentially what James was able to say. He can't state anything else."

  "Why do we only have a week left?" I asked.

  "Because James said they're planning a huge raid on Monday across Homatomashi."

  "Shit...wait. If they're planning...doesn't that mean most of their people will be setting things up Sunday night to be sneaky."

  Aki smirked, looking proud of my swift thinking. "Exactly. Which means that the base will have two thirds fewer guards. Perfect night for an ambush, if I do say so myself."

  "White-Eyes will be there for sure?"

  "Yes. James guaranteed it. Apparently, he has some medical condition, so he can't be far from the base too long? He couldn't say the specifics, but we'd be able to get him when he least expects it if we plan it right."

  "What about James? Isn't he going to get hurt if he betrays White-Eyes?"

  "Quil contacted the elderly woman who gave you the charm bracelet to weaken Storm's essence from bothering you," Aki revealed.

  "She can do something?!" I exclaimed, a bit of relief running through me.

  Aki's expression softened. "Yup. She can potentially override the mark he has that binds him to White-Eyes. If all goes well, he'll be free to do as he wishes and won't be affected if we end up having to kill White-Eyes."

  "No way. Does James know?" I asked.

  "Not yet. We kind of wanted you to go with him and let the Great One deliver the news. He has to go on Sunday morning so it's nice and fresh. It will be the strongest and have the highest protection for the mission."

  "He'll be so happy," I whispered.

  "It was Quil's idea." Aki shrugged.

  "Except for the fact they hate each other’s guts, they're sure nice to one another," I mumbled, noticing a few times that James would be scolding Quil to eat instead of being a dragon breathing ass hole and Quil just throwing insults but accepting the food James brought each time.

  I turned slightly in Aki’s embrace, wrapping my arms around his neck and pulling him down for a passionate kiss. It was a little unexpected, but I was really grateful to them.

  I didn't know if I was ready to have James be a part of this relationship I had with the others, but the guys were making it so much easier and I was beyond thankful for their acceptance. James was hard to understand but finding out everything from the beginning really helped with me with potentially giving him another chance at being with me, as long as I could date the others as we were now.

  "Why are you pleasing me?" Aki whispered against my lips.

  "For being amazing. You and the others. The last 5 months have been a rollercoaster and it just feels nice to be loved wholeheartedly by all of you. Even after all the ups and downs, you guys still love me. You cared about me as a human and as a shifter, and I couldn't be more thankful."

  "I should be thanking you for having a heart of gold," Aki murmured and kissed me back.

  I smirked against his lips, the both of us enjoying our little moment. My tails popped out and began wagging back and forth in excitement, probably due to my Kitsune who practically hopped up and down in place.

  I broke the kiss to giggle as my ears twitched. "My Kitsune won't stay still."

  "She's excited to show you her awesome skills," Aki said softly, but I noticed he grew quiet for a moment.

  "What's wrong?" I asked.

  "I have to tell you something, but I don't know exactly how to say it."

  "Is it bad?"

  "No. It's just something...I don't tell people."

  "The guys know?"

  "Yes."

  "Hmmm....did Storm know?"

  "No."

  "Oh..." That intrigued me. Something he's told the guys but never told Storm. "Why didn’t you tell her?"

  "I...well my Kitsune really didn't trust her enough. I never go against my Kitsune's instincts, so I decided not to tell her."

  "Is your Kitsune fine with me knowing?" I asked.

  "Yes."

  "Why?"

  "Because you wouldn't put us in danger.".

  I stared into his eyes, noticing by his expression that he was serious about this.

  "I'd never want harm to come to you, Akihiro," I vowed. My Kitsune came right to the surface then; my tails multiplied to six and my Kitsune stared intriguingly at Aki whose eyes shifted to an amber color and his tails began to glow brightly.

  We just stared into their mesmerizing eyes and it seemed like something clicked between them without saying words. Aki's eyes blinked a few times, slowly morphing back to their green appearance while my Kitsune pulled back and was now extremely happy. Probably the happiest I'd seen her as she ran and rolled around.

  "What...did he tell her? She's like extremely happy," I pointed out, giving Aki a confused look.

  He smiled and leaned in to press his forehead against mine. "Don't be mad."

  "Why would I?"

  "Because I wanted to tell you sooner...but I was scared," he admitted.

  I reached out to run my hand along his cheek and he closed his eyes, taking a few breaths as I continued to stroke his left cheek.

  "I won't be upset," I whispered and gave him a reassuring kiss. I could tell he was nervous, and I simply wanted him to know that I loved him and would support him no matter what. He'd been there and supported me through my ups and downs. I could at least listen to his concerns and give him my support. If the guys already knew, it couldn't be that bad.

  Aki nodded, giving me a peck on the lips before he urged me to stand. We both stood, and I stared intriguingly at Aki as he closed his eyes. His three tails began to glow even stronger, the gold, orange, and red colors growing stronger with each second.

  What made me gasp and my eyes widen was when I watched his 3 tails multiply to six, then to nine, but my eyes went as wide as saucers when the final three emerged.

  Aki's...no way. He's a...Wait. Is there such thing as a Twelve-Tail Kitsune?

  My Kitsune practically squealed and went on a rolling spree in my mind before she ran right to the border of my mind and prompted all nine of my tails out, which felt weird when I was in a slightly calmer state compared to the time I'd faced Malachi in the spiral of black cherry blossoms.

  "You're a Twelve-Tails Kitsune, Akihiro?" I asked for confirmation as if my eyes were deceiving me or I was dreaming. "Is that a term? I mean...is that even possible? Is that even a race?"

  He slowly nodded, looking a bit nervous. "I...haven't told anyone. The guys only found out because of a certain mission and vowed not to say anything
."

  "So you're some super rare breed? Wait, why is my Kitsune over the moon about this?" I asked.

  "Uh...well...um."

  "Akihiro?"

  "You're...kinda...one...too." He mumbled the words so low I almost missed it.

  I just stood there like he'd spoken German or something, and my Kitsune paused in her rolling to give me an excited look like she was so happy I finally knew.

  "Back up. No…wait. That...how?"

  "Crimson, English." Aki gave me a sympathetic smile and I groaned, not even realizing I'd switched languages.

  "That's impossible."

  "What is?"

  "Me being...twelve...LOOK! I have nine. See?! Count. 1, 2,3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9! Not twelve." I tried to defend myself and Akihiro chuckled.

  "Um. You have nine for now, but you will have twelve when you've unlocked all your Kitsune powers."

  "Nani?!"

  "Hmm. Maybe I should have explained this better before telling you," Aki mused out loud, looking a bit concerned.

  "How are you a twelve-tails? How can you be one? Are we even allowed to say that out loud? I mean, what if someone is watching or listening?" I looked around as my ears twitched to try to hear if anyone was near.

  Aki smirked and wrapped his arms around me. "You're really selfless, you know that?"

  "You're ignoring my initial question," I mumbled but melted in his hold.

  "It's a bit hard to explain and I’d rather spend time running around with you than explaining."

  "Will you explain it to me when all of this is over? Like a detailed essay format explanation?" I leaned back to look up at him.

  "As detailed as you want after a good round of sex."

  I laughed and shook my head. "Whatever works."

  He gave me a kiss on my forehead and stared down into my eyes. "You already know Nine-Tails are rare. My Kitsune wasn't comfortable with telling Storm because there was just this feeling that we couldn't? I didn't care much if she knew about me being a Nine-Tails, but twelve was out of the question. You, however, I trust you, and you'll be able to unlock yours with some extra training with ChiyoChi."

  "So, I won't need that for our mission?"
