The Wardens Call (Senran Kagura X Male Reader)

Chapter 7: Bath Time

(Your POV)
I smiled happily as I watched the snow fall. I felt nostalgic watching the snow, and apparently watching Hibari make a snow man. “You look peaceful (FN).” Ikaruga said, handing me tea. “Yeah, I couldn’t help but notice that as well.” Asuka added.

“I was just feeling nostalgic. The snow reminds me of….I guess more innocent time. Or, as innocent as getting tossed in the snow on your back is.” I said.
“Did you have fond memories?” Katsuragi asked.
“Yeah. You see, Duncan took me away for a few years to teach me everything I know. The winters was my favorite time.” I told them.
“How?”
“Well, I guess it is because of how that was when a we trained the least. I mean, we still did train, and while the sessions were not as often, they were harder.” I explained.
“And how exactly is that any easier then normal?” Kat asked.
“There weren’t as many?” I said. “Anyway, with the snow like this, anyone up for some training?” I asked.
“I think we found Homura's long lost brother.” I faintly heard Kat whispered to Asuka.
“I would like to.” Ikaruga said standing up and bringing out her sword.

I grinned and went inside to grab mine. We took stance on the yard. I took in a cold breath and enjoyed the stinging feeling of the slight breeze. “And go!” Asuka shouted and I saw Ikaruga dash towards me. I blocked her blade and launched her backwards, then took a swing and cut some her shirt. She landed and tried using speed as a factor. I quickly change stance and waited for my moment. When she got with in range, I took a long hefty swing and it forced Ikaruga to quickly jump up, giving me time to jump up as well as I took my sword by its blade and smack the pommel into her back.

Ikaruga landed on the ground but quickly spun up and jumped out of the way as I landed. “Funny to think about our differences I’m our styles.” I said and got ready. Ikaruga laughed. “How so?”

“You are more speed and cunning. I am more defense. Sort of like a sword against a shield.” I told her and got ready again. Ikaruga smirked and in a flash I felt a slash on my back, ripping my shirt. Was now in front and sheathed her blade, that was when I felt multiple cuts as my clothes were now ribbons except for my underwear. “Okay, how about next time: No ninja magic.” I stated.

Ikaruga giggled, and the others laughed as I soon felt the cold catch up. I grabbed my sword and quickly went inside and up to the bathroom. After throwing my dead cloths away, I began to run a bath. I then heard a knock. “(FN), may I come in?” Ikaruga asked through the door. “Huh? Um, I uh.”

“Don’t worry, I have a bathing suit on.” She said.

(Ikaruga's POV)
The door opened and I walked into see the bath running and steam filling up the room. I turned and looked at the mad red (FN). “I guess this is the first time you ever bathed with another, hub?” I asked, suppressing a shade of red myself. “N-no,  not with a girl.” He said. I couldn’t help but giggle at him.

“Well, then maybe you should get use to the idea. I mean, least start with a swim suit first.” I said and took off my towel. Showing the black bathing suit. I looked up to see him looking at me. “Whoa.” I softly heard him say. I blushed a bit at that and he was the first to snap out of thoughts.

“So um, would you like to get in first?” He offered.
“Sure.” I said.

I got I to the large bath first. After finding a spot, (FN) sat across from me and leaned back in the bath. He let out a sigh and leaned back. I looked over at him and smiled. “So, do you have many good memories with Duncan and the other Knights?” I asked him.

“I do. Mostly with Duncan. Like I said: He was a father to me. To be honest, I don’t have much memories before meeting him and the Knights.” He said looking at me. “I guess I just repress those memories.” He moved his hand around the water.

“And the others?” I asked.
“They were alright I guess. I mean, all the elders treated me kindly. But none of them couldn’t do much. Old bones and all.” He said. “What about you, and the girls? You have good memories with them?”
“I do. Many in fact.” I said. “One of them when Kat actually helped me break out of my shell.”

“Shell?” He asked. I nodded and explained what I meant. We actually spent a good twenty minutes talking about, weirdly enough, our flaws, but also good memories we had. “I remember one time, I decided to pull a prank on Duncan. It wasn't too bad, but he did have pink hair for a month.” He said and I laughed a bit.

(FN) looked at the water for a bit, before looking up at me. “Hay, Ikaruga, I wanted to know if maybe Friday….you wanted to, hang out? A-as a way to say thanks for, helping me.” He asked.

I was a bit surprised by his question, and reasoning. But to be honest, I was extremely happy he asked. I smiled and nodded. “Sure, I would love to hang out with you for a day.” I said. I somehow knew he had a bit intended, but I will play along.

“Hay, you two done in there!?” We both jumped as we heard Kat yell. “S-sorry, getting dressed now.” (FN) said and got out. “I’ll leave first.” He said and quickly dried off and grabbed a towel and walked out. The others came in afterwards, Kat probably expecting to find a naked me. “Dammit.” She muttered as I walked out and towards my room.
