Sekirei: Tale of the Crow Feather

By: Terrence Noran

Chapter 1: The Story of the Black One

Humanity.

Love.

Destiny.

She hated these words. She truly hated them. Mostly because a certain someone kept on preaching on how she would find her fated one, which would make her appreciate the first and find the second. How? The third, that's how.

None of these things ever mattered to her...namely due to the fact that she never needed one. Not because she cannot be bonded, but because it was unnecessary. There was no reason for her to have a "destined" partner, and if ever she did have someone, she would either kill him/her or use him/her to further her goals.

What were those goals?

It's rather simple...however, it's hard to achieve. What she wants is to defeat her old commander and her current commander, and be the strongest of her species.

But good sir, you make it sound like she isn't human.

That's because she isn't.

She, like the other one-hundred-eight others, aren't exactly human. They are what we call "Sekirei" or "Wagtail" in English. What they were called in their language was never known, nor do they need to know. They are extraterrestrials who look like humans...only for a few differences, such as superhuman strength, agility, speed, reaction time, durability, reflexes, and intelligence (depending on which of them have). They can either be classified as any of the following: a weapon-type, an elemental type, a fist-type, or a brain type. Each have their own unique abilities from each classification.

Not only that, about seventy percent of these beings are females...with bodies that would make models, who worked so hard to achieve their forms, jealous. The thirty percent are male, who are basically what we call "Bishounen" or "Beautiful Boys", with looks that would make girls voluntarily give up their virginity upon first looks or impressions.

Well, she was one of these beings. She was also one of the strongest of them out there, with the exception of a few who can match her or beat her. She was also their version of a "Boogeyman" or "Boogeywoman", since it's a she. Always striking fear into the hearts of whoever she meets, just for that sweet satisfaction of attention.

But, as much as she wants to deny it, she needed someone to fill that void in her heart. She needed someone to show her that those three things she despised weren't so bad, rather than to be taught or sermoned, or preached just to hammer these vague concepts into her head...that she would ignore anyways.

She did find one...after a long time. She, at first, hated him. She wanted nothing to do with him, despite her heart, mind, and soul telling her otherwise. But sooner or later, after enough bonding, she grew close to him...eventually falling in love. However, she was afraid that her nature would take over and kill him on a whim. She tried to push him away but couldn't...even when she found out that he had bonded with others. When she finally did succeed, he almost died...devastating and traumatizing her. She changed...as a response to her trauma. She believed herself to be human...and blocked out the entire memory of being one of them.

When he finally recovered, he was shocked and saddened by her changes. He, after many unsuccessful attempts, managed to convince her to come back to her senses. She did...at first, selectively...then slowly made a recovery at the same time as a citywide tournament was being held.

But good sir, you may ask, how do you know all of these things?

Well, it is rather simple...really. I am the one who knows all of her strengths, weaknesses, struggles, emotions, and more. I know her feelings. I know everything about her for two years, all those times we have been together.

I am her Fated One.

I am her Destined Partner.

I am the one who she bonded to.

I am her Ashikabi.

A/N: This is a new Sekirei fanfiction, which focuses on the relationship between Karasuba and her Ashikabi. This first chapter is basically a summary written by her ashikabi...although it won't be him telling the story. There will still be a harem thing going on, because Sekirei. Karasuba will the main character this time. This will be the replacement for Another Adventure, as its story became too complicated in its concept that I stopped writing it completely. I will write it again but it will come back far later. Do not comment on who should be in the harem, as I have already planned on who will join. So, what do you guys think? Read, Review, Critic, and Comment without bullshit. Have fun and enjoy.

I don't own Sekirei, just my OCs.
