What We Do Now [Threequel to The Queen of Them]

[Night of Operation]

Mustuki's POV

"(Y/n)-senesi.." I mumbled.

"Mustuki, you have to relax.." (Y/n) gently patted my head.

We were outside a building, waiting for Suzuya to join us. (Y/n) had gotten into a really exposing dress. Haise didn't want (Y/n) to go out like that, but unfortunately (Y/n) had left winning the argument. She stated that the more she's exposed, the more kagunes she can release without ripping her clothing.

"Mustuki, think you can give me the lipstick?" (Y/n) asked me, fixing her loose, curled hair. Nodding, I had tossed her the small container that had the dark red lipstick.

"(Y/n)-senesi, you really think that I can do this..? I'm just a bit worried that I'll put this operation in jeopardy.."

Hearing the heels from her thigh high boots, I felt her hug me in reassurance. She moved away slowly and smiled at me. "You'll be fine.. You are a great Quinxs. Never doubt yourself in an operation.."

"Mustuki-kun, (Y/n)-chan, are you ready?" We heard Haise call out to us.

"Yeah. Come in, Senesi." I answered, unable to face the door.

"Mustuki-kun, you look like a woman!" Shirazu exclaimed. "Sorry if that came out rude." He apologized, scratching his nape.

"It's fine, Shirazu-kun." I smiled gently, looking up slightly.

"I think Mustuki will do just fine on his own. I believe in him." (Y/n) told everyone, her hand on my shoulder. I looked at her, unsure of my training. "You'll do just fine.. If anything were to happen, Suzuya-kun will be there to help you. Or yell out my name.. I'll be there.."

"Oi! Why are you doing dressing like that?!" Haise yelled out, his anger showing clearly.

(Y/n) had on a tight short dress that had exposed her back, the dress being kept together with simple cloth around her neck that connects to her dress. She also had a leather jacket that was hanging near by. In my opinion, she looks great, considering that she has a child. Then again, she's also an investigator.

"Last I check, I don't have a lover, Haise. Don't try it." (Y/n) sighed. "Plus, I am able to handle myself perfectly fine. I need this dress so I can use my kagunes. So, don't try to make me change my mind."

"That's not the point.. You're fully exposed. Don't you think that you should change?"

Clicking her tongue, (Y/n) crosses her arms. "I'm not a rookie.. Back off from my ass.."

"I'm not saying that you are—"

"—Then what are you saying? You think I can't handle something like this?" Scoffing, (Y/n) walked passed us and take her jacket. She stopped and looked at Haise. "I've been an investigator for three years, going into four. If you think I can't do this, then you're sadly mistaken."

[FlashBack Done]

"I'm here!~" We heard Suzuya as he clings onto (Y/n)'s torso. "You look so good (Y/n)-chan."
