Dream smiled, as he looks around and sees the inside of his own house, the one that is next to Ink. It has been a little bit, since Ink has winged Uzume, and needless to say, Ink is being very happy, and now has improved on his mental flaws. Thanks to the Sekirei, his emotions are now able to last far longer then they were before, due to their power extending the time that they continue to exist, and Ink now no longer had to take them as frequently as before. Plus, he is now beginning to care for his Sekirei then before, and is no longer as selfish. This made Dream happy to see that Ink is now able to become a bit more of a better person then before.

And as for Dream himself, he is getting along with his Sekirei, and he can feel their love had is immense to them. Tsukiumi always sees herself as the top wife, due to being with Dream first, and while the others don't argue on it, they all still have a crush and possess immense feelings to Dream. Even Katsuragi, who is normally as emotionless and melancholic as Akitsu, joins in, which is a little bit surprising, considering what she is normally like. The only one that does not get involved in this is Kochou, but this is mainly because she can't fight, and because of this, stays out of it. But she does join in with being at Dream's side and loving him. So that is at least something here. Although, even though Dream felt happy that he is not going to be alone, having now gained Sekirei to be by his side, he still felt sad because his life does not feel complete without his brother.

In all honesty, he would feel like his life would become a bit more complete with having his brother as his usual self again then to have him be his enemy all the time, due to what the Black Apples done to him. And admittedly, this made him feel sad, but he does not care, as he feels like his Sekirei had given him the strength to feel much better about himself then before. He felt more calmer and happier, and due to what the Sekirei feel for him, this actually made Dream a little bit stronger himself, due to the fact that their love is fueling his base form strength, even though it has been increased due to the power of the Golden Apples that he has gained. Not only that, but Dream's aura is also having an effect on the Sekirei themselves, as it made them feel much more happier and calmer, with both Kochou and Katsuragi even feeling a bit more happier themselves. It seems that the Sekirei are able to find a perfect Ashikabi.

"Wow, I can't believe that Dream has gotten more Sekireis! And one of them as my sparring partner!"

Musubi said, as Yume nodded, happy to be able to spar with Katsuragi, who is able to match her blow for blow, although with kicks instead of punches.

"I know, isn't it great, Musubi?"

Musubi smiled, as Kazehana spoke out.

"Heh...it seems your Sekirei had increased, Dream. Are you proud of yourself with this?"

Dream spoke out.

"Well...as long as they are happy, then I am happy for them. I love them all equally, regardless of what they are."

Kazehana smiled sweetly, as she then kissed Dream in the mouth, and her wings erupted out from above her Sekirei Crest. Dream smiled, but then, Tsukiumi grabs Dream and kisses him forcefully, as her own wings erupted from her nape, and needless to say, it felt very good to the Water Sekirei, in thee she is able to feel the love that is within the Guardian of Positivity. Dream smiled, as she kissses Tsukiumi and Kazehana in the cheeks, which made the both of them blush, due to what Dream had done. Dream then sighed, as he spoke out.

"Did you like it?"

Kazehana nodded, as Tsukiumi spoke out.

"Of course I taketh pleasure in t. Thou art just too sweet f'r me, Dreameth."

Tsukiumi felt her face turned red, as Dream spoke out.

"I'm glad that I get to make you happy, Tsukiumi. All of you that are with me."

Tsukiumi smiled a tiny bit, as her ocean blue eyes look at Dream, who glows golden, and made her feel a bit more happier then before. Even Dream can sometimes be a little bit too sweet for his own good.

Dream looks around and smiled, as he felt happy to see his Sekirei being happy as well. Dream looks behind him, as he then decides to go elsewhere inside of Union City, so that he can see the beauty of the outside world. He then raised his hand, as he then spoke out.

"Well...I'm going out. Gonna take a walk around the city to see how beautiful it is."

Dream then made a portal and goes through it, as he then wave his Sekirei goodbye, who waved back at him. Dream smiled, and it made all of their hearts flutter, as Dream then goes through the portal and outside. Dream then looks up, as he sees the sun above him. A smile is present onto his face, as he felt the wake rays of light touch him, feeling like he is underneath the warm blanket of his own bed. Dream walks, and he goes and travels inside of the city, as he sees that there are various people walking around, acting normal, and Dream, his wings rebaked and the crown floating above like a halo, does not seem to bother them. Dream smiled a little bit, as he continues to walk, and he can feel like his day is about to get good, due to the fact that he now gets to feel calm about where he is at, and what he will do next. But unbeknownst to Dream, he is about to get involved with a couple more people, and these are gonna be the ones that will join in with him.

Elsewhere...

On top of some buildings in Union City, there are 2 figures that are jumping and leaping onto the roof of the buildings that are present, their weapons looking, in a way, similar to whips, as they continued to jump and leap, until the both of them decided to stop, and the both of their appearance have now been revealed.

Standing on top of some buildings, are 2 other Sekirei. One of them is wearing an alternatively dark and light-coloured top that exposed her stomach, dark leather shorts held up by a belt, a white and black choker, and dark stockings, as well as possessing blond hair with sharp eyes. The other female, who is taller then her buddy, has orange eyes and short blonde hair that is styled into a fashion similar to a cat or fox's ears. She wears an orange and black leotard-like suit with white straps, black pants with a portion of the left leg cut out, dark black gloves with long white and black sleeves, dark bangles, black boots, and a dark collar-like choker with prominent metal protrusions. On each of their hands are weapons, both of them resemble whips of sorts. But the one with the top has sharp ends on the ship, while the other one has more whips then her buddy, but lacks the sharp blades on it. The one with the sharp blades Somme out

"Ugh, damnit, Kaie!! We just had to travel to a city such as this with no way around it!!!"

Kaie looks at her buddy, and spoke out to her.

"It is why we are here, isn't it? Too see around the city, so we can get to know it better?"

Sai snarled, as she rolls her eyes a little bit, as she then spoke out.

"Not only that, we do not have a home of our own!! We don't have a place to live in, and we'll most likely just sleep outside!!"

Kaie then some one to Sai.

"We're not giving up on this just yet, Sai. There is full time for us to go and look around for a home. And...if we are lucky, we will perhaps be able to find out Ashikabi inside of this city. After all, it's what we need to find the most, the person who we are dated to meet, our mates."

Sai sighed angrily, and spoke in a forcefully calm tone, with frustration distorting the tone of her voice.

"Yes, I get the point, Kaie. But let's not waste any more fucking time. Let's go!"

Sai jumped, and Kaie nodded her head, before she leapt up into the air as well, as she then follows her friend Sai.

With Dream...

Dream is shown to be smiling, as he has what seem to be a vanilla ice cream on a waffle cone in his hand. And needless to say, the sweet treat that is in his hand never get old for him. He loves the taste that is in his mouth, whenever he does take it. Dream is shown on the bench as he currently eats the ice cream, and he closed his eyes, as he savors its taste. It is something that Dream cannot help but take, as he really loves it.

Of course, he wishes that his Sekirei would be here, but he decides to leave them be, as they can do whatever that they want. After all, they always seem to be happy at his home, and at least that Issei would not be there to try and take them by force, as they are bond to him. So, it makes Dream glad that they are able to love their lives the way that they want it.

But as Dream continues to eat his ice cream...and as soon as he has finished...

"Found you, fucker!!!"

Dream looks as he moves out of the way as fast as he can, and a red blue crashed down into the ground and caused a powerful shockwave to erupt from it. And needless to say, Dream is not happy with who it is that has decided to appear. It is none other then Issei himself. Apparently, he has decided to go and find Dream all by himself, so that he can go and attack him when Ink is not here. And needless to say, Dream is not happy about this a single bit, as Dream then spoke out.

"Why are you here, Red Dragon Emperor? Are you forgetting about the previous times that I had beaten you before?"

Issei then shouted back at the little dude before him.

"Only reason you win against me is because you had help, you small golden dipshit!! Now that Ink is not present with you, this means that I will have a far more better time in trying to fuck you down and out!!!"

Dream stepped back, as he ate the rest of the waffle cone in a single quick bite, before he then held his hands out and summoned daggers, before he then spoke out.

"I can assure you...you won't win against me."

Dream then raised his hands, his fists, as he then glares at Issei, and got ready to go and fight against him. His wings folded behind his back, so that he can fight against him. After a bit, Issei charged at Dream, while Dream ran as fast as he can at Issei, and unleashed a very powerful punch at Issei, which sends him skidding backwards a little bit, as Issei is then kicked by Dream, who is not able to hit harder then he was able to before. And needless to say, it is very painful. Dream landed down onto the ground, as he then summoned his wand and launched stars at Issei, in which the stars exploded onto him and made more smaller stars and continued to hit him. Issei got hit by the explosions a bunch of times, and needless to say, Issei was not happy at all, as he lands onto the ground in agony. Issei then stood up, as he glares and looks at Dream, who then has his daggers in his hand.

"Why you son of a bitch?! You are dead meat!!!"

Issei then charged at Dream using his boosters, while Dream charged at Issei by flying fast towards him. He swung his dagger at Issei, which became sharp enough to slice through armor. And Issei's red scale mail is armor, despite being tougher then most, it does not change the fact that he is able to go through it with his daggers. He then launched one which sliced the side of the helmet, before retracting it, due to the string pulling it back. Dream then spreads his wings and flies up into the air. He then flies down fast, and kicks Issei hard into the head, as Issei is then launched backwards and his back hit the pavement onto the ground. The pavement cracked, as Issei looked up and saw Dream come down, getting a little bit irritated at what Issei doesn't give up. He and Issei have faced against each other countless times, and no matter what, Issei never wins, no matter what the capabilities of his Boosted Gear can do. Double his power it may have been capable of doing, Dream can do a similar thing, but only as long as he can still feel positive emotions. And unlike the previous times, Dream is now stronger, due to eating 998 Golden Apples, which lead to him gaining 999 Golden Apples in total. Now he is almost impossible to kill like Nightmare. And for Issei, he will never be able to beat him.

Issei looks at Dream in pure anger, as he shouted out to him.

"You bastard!!! You are so dead!!!"

Dream then flies up into the air, as he then turned his daggers into his new spear. He then looks at Issei, before he then flies fast towards him, and began to attack with the thrust of his spear, the spearhead coated in positive energy, and spinning around like a drill. It then hits Issei in the stomach, as the spear began to drill into the chest, before Issei jumped and moved out of the way, as he then flies up, but Dream isn't done yet. He then swung the spear, as the spear head then split, connected by glowing blue cables, as it is then swung to the side like a whip, and it then wrapped around Issei's leg, before the Red Dragon Emperor is then pulled down and sent to the ground with a crash. Issei looks up at the Guardian of Positivity, as he then spoke out to him.

"I'm not done with you yet, Issei. You do not get to run from me, after all that you have done."

Elsewhere...

On top of some buildings, 2 familiar figures are shown jumping onto them. Kaie and Sai are shown to be jumping off of buildings, as they then heard a loud crash come out of complete nowhere.

"What the fuck was that?"

Sai said, as Kaie look to the left, and jumped, and Sai began to follow her. As they jumped, they landed onto one of the buildings, and got close to the source of the sound that caused that ruckus.

Kaie looks down, as she sees one person that has come in their presence, having a floating crown with 2 pairs of golden wings and a pair of daggers connected by string. But then, another person appeared. having red armor be worn by him. But they paid more attention to the one with the golden crown. Sai and Kaie...they felt something...almost as if they both want him. Then, a powerful thump was felt within them, their heartbeat having been felt much harder than before, as their cheeks turned red, as their bodies become hot. They looked at Dream, the one with the crown and wings, as Sai spoke out.

"Is...is it him?"

Sai said, as Kaie nodded her head at Sai.

"Yes, it is him, our Ashikabi..."

Sai and Kaie look and see Dream having formed a dome with a wand, as he blocked a dragon shot at Issei, before he then turned his wand into his Spear, and he began to stab him with quick and rapid succession at him. But Dream got hit in the face with a boosted punch by the Red Dragon Emperor, as Dream is launched backwards into a building and is hit. Luckily, Dream is able to heal from the hit at such extremely fast speeds, accelerated healing that is comparable and matches that of Nightmare's own regeneration...but both Kaie and Sai, seeing how much trouble that he is in, they both decided to intervene, not wanting to lose their Ashikabi. Looking at each other, they both nodded, Kaie's cat ear-shaped hairs perked up, as the 2 whip Sekirei went down to try helping Dream.

As Dream stood up, a little bit in pain from what Issei had done, the Red Dragon Emperor walks to him and tries to punch him. But Dream grabbed onto one of the punches, while Dream tries to throw a punch of his own, but Issei is able to catch it. Dream and Issei snarled at each other, as Issei and Dream do all that they can to overpower one another. But Dream does not give up easily, and he does his best to hold his ground against the Red Dragon Emperor, despite the fact that Issei is weaker compared to him, and only other guardians, like Nightmare, can truly defeat him. Issei, however, does not seem to care about killing, as he only wants to torture Dream like he made Ink's life hell back in Union Academy.

"Is that the best that you can do against me, you fucking weakling?!"

Dream narrowed his eyes, as his right eye, looking similar to the sun, flares brightly. But as that happened, all of a sudden, Issei felt the back of the Scale Mail armor pierced, and his neck and arms wrapped around by whips, as 2 female voices spoke out to Issei in pure anger.

"Get your hands off of him!!"

Kaie and Sai then came to Dream's defense, as they unleashed their ranged weapons at the one that is attacking him. They threw Issei into the air, as Issei then landed down into the ground with a crash, and it is a very painful crash. The pavement shattered the moment that Issei's body landed onto the ground. But as Dream looked, the Sekirei's backs facing him, he can see a familiar crest from behind them, one that he knows all too well.

"You...you both are Sekirei, aren't you?"

Kaie and Sai turned to Dream, and the moment that Sai looks at him her expression softens a little bit, due to seeing how incredibly beautiful that Dream is.

"Our...ashikabi..."

Sai said, as Kaie goes to him, but as that happened, the sound of movement was heard, and both Sai and Kaie turned around to see that Issei is back onto his feet, and he looks very mad.

"What the fuck, what the shitting hell just happened?!"

Issei looks and sees Sai and Kaie, as they both looked to see that he is back onto his feet.

Sai snarled a little bit, as she looks at the opponent that is before then all. Clearly, he is a bit harder to bring down then expected, as Issei then spoke out.

"Wait, you both are-"

But before Issei can finish, Kaie and Sai both began to attack and hit the Dragon Emperor. Their ranged whips fired out from them, as Issei then got hit with them, his armor chipped and damaged from their attacks, as he is launched backwards very painfully. And needless to say, it is very painful for Issei. But Issei, knowing that the both of them are...wants them. He looks at then, and a lustful stare is felt, and Sai immediately realized what the feeling is.

"Oh fuck no, you are not gonna fucking take me with you!!"

Sai launched one of her bladed whips at Issei, who grabbed it, but Kaie then wrapped a couple more whips around Issei, and pulled him before she then swung her whips again, and hit them, as she shouted out to Issei.

"Wind Slashing Whip!"

Needless to say, the attack was painful, as Issei was launched back by the power of the whips that Kaie has in her possession. Issei stood up, and he does not give up, as she then spoke out.

"You both are mine to take, not the weaklings!!"

He charged at them, but Kaie and Sai jumped out of the way, as Sai then stabbed Issei in the back with one of her bladed whips, before pulling him up into the air, and swung her arm, as she swung him down to the ground. And it is a very painful crash for Issei. Kaie then spoke out to Issei.

"You are not the one that we want to be with!! The man you call, weak, is our Ashikabi, and will be in how we want it!! You do not own us like we are your toys to keep."

Issei stood up, as he clenched his fist, before he then spoke out.

"No way...am I fucking giving up on this!!! I'll have you both, no matter what!!"

Issei jumped at the pair, and both Sai and Kaie rolled their eyes on annoyance, the cat ear-like hairs pulled back on Kaie's head, reflecting on how annoyed she is, as she and Sai then took a stance and prepare to attack. But Dream, not wanting Issei to take them forcefully, then decides to send Issei far back himself. 

Dream had fired his Positivity Arrow and sent Issei back, launching him with the force of the attack, due to the fact that he exploded very powerfully. This made Sai and Kaie surprised, but then...they noticed something.

They see a golden apple-shaped object inside of him, and the moment it sent a powerful pulse of energy...Sai and Kaie felt their hearts thump, as they felt themselves reacting to Dream. Kaie and Sai then go to Dream, as they felt themselves attracted to him. They went close to him, and then, the moment that they did, Sai roughly grabbed Dream and kissed him, as dark purple wings had then shown out of her nape. As soon as that happened, Kaie also kissed Dream, and she felt her body grow hot. Orange wings then burst out, as they disappeared, and they felt their powers amplified far greater then before.

"I, Kaie, belong to you, my Ashikabi."

"Now and former, my Ashikabi, for Sai."

Sai and Kaie looked mad, as they turned to see Issei come back, as Sai then shouted out.

"Are you fucking kidding me?! You're still coming?! What will it take for you to go down, you fucking piece of shit?!"

Kaie narrowed her eyes, as she readies her whips, before she then spoke out her Norito.

"Whip of my pledge, tear apart the antagonist of my ashikabi!"

Sai, realizing what Kaie is planning, decides to use her own Norito, her wings continued to shine.

"By the bladed whips of my vow, my Ashikabi's enemies will be eviscerated!!"

Kaie and Sai charged at Issei, who tries to attack, but unfortunately, Kaie and Sai already used their strongest attack to send him as far away as they can.

"Whip of Hundred Cracks!!"

"Bladed Whips of Wrath!!"

The 2 whip Sekirei swung their weapons with such fast speed and immense power, that it made a very powerful shockwave and explosion, one that made Issei cry out in pain, as he is sent into the air, and is gone out from sight. Dream smiled, as he spoke out.

"Well. Hopefully it is the last that we need to see of him. Thank you, Sai, Kaie."

Sai and Kaie smiled, as Dream then extended his hand and he opened a portal.
