In a secret location somewhere on the streets of Tokyo, in a building with a big sign that looked like a rip-off of Ghost in the Shell’s Laughing Man logo on top declaring the ownership of said building in its uh… secret location that was actually pretty out in the open, a meeting to decide the fate of the world was being held!
“Shinpaku!”
“Shinpaku!”
Niijima, once again dressed in his general’s uniform complete with cape, held up his hand to silence the two chanting minions off to his sides and stop the flag waving. “Shinpaku Alliance, roll call!” the demon general ordered.

Next to Miu, a young man around the same age with light hair cut short and a slender build sat in his arms crossed, wearing dark gloves with occult designs on the back of the palms. “Why the hell did I even agree to come to this damn meeting?”

The next person down the line was a man with a bluish tint to his hair, that was tied back into a ponytail, and a piece of grass in his mouth. He put is feet up on the table and stretched his arms. “Eh relax, it’ll go faster if you don’t fight it.”

On the other side of the table, a man with long hair and dressed in an expensive suit/hat combo stood up to salute Niijima. “Siegfried is here my General!” he said in a voice that almost made him sound like he was singing. “Name-”
“Uh… the info thingy will take care of it Siegfried,” Niijima told him.

In the seat next to Thor sat… no one.
“Umm, anybody seen Freya?” Niijima asked.
“She's got night classes now you bastard!” Kisara shouted at their leader. “Not to mention her day job. We all got one of those now.”
“Not me,” Takeda chimed in.
“Me neither!” Ranma added.
“Don’t sound so proud about it!” Miu shouted at her husband.
Kenichi and Thor wisely kept their mouths shut.
Niijima sighed and rubbed his head. “Fine, just who else is there then?”
The redhead in the woman’s business suit casually raised her hand. “Just me. Ukita has been working late all week for some reason.”
Everyone else looked over to Kisara, and blinked. Instead of her usual mangled jeans and valkyrie shit, she was wearing a short business skirt, a fancy white shirt, and a dark dress jacket. A pair of pantyhose also covered her legs, and everyone noticed there was a pair of high heeled shoes laying on the ground next to her chair.
“Ummm…” Takeda began, not sure how to continue.
Kisara looked over to him and frowned. “I had to come here strait from work! I’m a secretary, okay? My Dad got me a job at his company when the animal shelter I’d been working at for the past few months closed down. ANYONE GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT?”
Name: Kisara Nanjo
Alias: Valkyrie
Position: Captain

Fighting Style: Tae Kwando (variant based on a cat’s moves)
Strength: Innovation
Weakness: Small breasts and short legs
“Actually, I was gonna ask how you can sit on your heels in a chair with all that on, and not rip anything,” Takeda said.
The cat obsessed girl just blinked. “Nya?”
“So, is that everyone?” Niijima asked as he looked around the room and the remaining empty seats.
In response to the question, the door suddenly burst open and a blur slammed into Kenichi before anyone could react. “Kenichi!”
The martial artist just let out a tired sigh at the feeling of two soft, fleshy orbs pressed up against his face. “Hello Renka.”
The blue-haired girl in the revealing Chinese dressed smothered Kenichi between her boobs for a few more seconds and then stood up. “Sorry I’m late! Those three deadbeats went back to China recently, so now I‘ve got to go back to manning the shop by myself most of the time.”
Name: Renka Ma
Alias: Shampoo 2.0 (by Ranma), The Cat Girl (by everyone else)
Position: Associate Member
Type: Dou
Fighting Style: Kenpo
Strength: Reading opponents
Weakness: Has to chase moving things
She looked over to Tanimoto and frowned. “Hey! Let me sit next to Kenichi.”
“No,” the other Ma trained martial artist replied coldly.
Thank you Natsu-chan Kenichi thought to himself with tears of joy in his eyes. With the way Miu got for a short time after the D of D tournament, Kenichi didn’t know if he could handle another girlfriend that was gifted in martial arts.
A second later, Tanimoto frowned at Kenichi’s tears of joy and got up before putting on a fake smile that seemed to make the air around him sparkle. “Here you go Renka,” the young man told her.
In the blink of an eye Renka was in the seat and had already scooted it close enough to grab onto Kenichi’s arm and press it against her chest.
I hate you Tanimoto, he thought a second later.
It was times like this that he was glad Yuka had asked him out during the start of their second year. Even if there was no way she could survive the deadly world that Kenichi had been thrust into, it was nice to have a normal girl interested in him for awhile. But from the looks of things, Renka would be the girl he’d be ending up with.
Not that Kenichi could say that was a bad thing… but it was nice to know someone normal had been interested in him once.
“Alright then, let this meeting of the Shinpaku Alliance commence!” Niijima announced as he stood up and threw his arms wide for effect. Then quickly grabbed a paper one of his minion’s handed him and scanned it. “Let’s see… first on the agenda is…
